Where.. am I now?
Am I still in that city..? No.. I'm pretty sure I've already passed by that city's statue already.. or did I? My mind's going to [email protected]#. Hahaha..
"What brings you here..?"
"Me? Oh no, I just took you to nearest bench. I saw you pass out next to city's streetlight so I took you here."- Said the guy. He was a bit tall, so it's not mind-boggling that he carried me all the way here. This was my usual life after 2 years. Introductions aren't needed, and my life has been great this past few months.
...
"What do you want? Why are you still here?"
At that moment, I felt two sharp objects pointing at my back. That's when I knew what was going on, or so I think.
"Hahahaha.. this must be our lucky day. A guy carrying a bag of diamonds sleeping in a bench unattended."
Oh yeah, I was also carrying a bag of diamonds. I always forget I get stumble across something from time to time, and this time, I stumbled into a mineshack full of diamond ores. I know it's stupid, but really, I just stumbled onto it.
This past 2 years all went out in a blink of an eye. That scene.. I don't remember anything. It's not like I don't actually remember everything, I just specifically left out that part. For why I left that part forgotten, I don't want to know, but I chose to forget it. It's not going to help me if I keep recollecting the events that happened 2 years ago. These days, I do not do anything worthwhile. These days, it were all just the same. I forgotten how it felt. I chose to forget how it felt, and now I'm here. Alone, and getting mugged.

Going back, I wonder how they're all doing why I'm thinking of a monologue...
"H-E-Y..! I said give me all your diamonds."- The tall guy said, while smiling weirdly at me.
"Man, I thought we're going to share it."- The guy at the back said, still pointing that knife at me.
"Yes, yes, jeez, we're all going to share it."
"What makes you think I'm just going to give this all to you..?"- I responded, because I want to go back to sleep and I want to end this quickly. This hangover still is making my head ache..
I turned behind, facing the guys who were pointing a knife at me.
"Here, let me help you."
I grabbed their knives and thrusted it deep within my chest. It's not like I'm going to die from it. I've been roaming around forests and bringing a knife, a rope, and some other materials too. Some nights, I try and go kill myself. There's this one time where I hanged myself on a tree, and people who were passing by all ran away. I didn't know they mistook me for a bad guy, I even waved at them while I was hanging.
Going back, again. These guys are persistent as hell.
"W..what?! the fuck?!"- said the 2 knife-pointing guys, who had this terrified expression on their faces. They should be, they interrupted my sleep.
"Yeah.. I get that a lot."
I kicked one guy's knee, making him fall to the ground. I also gut-punched the other guy beside him, I don't want him getting away.
The tall guy from behind stole the bag of diamonds, and ran as fast as he could.
...
The bag of diamonds teleported right back into arms. These 2 years made me experiment on my.. gifts. I learned how to reverse the position of anything I touch. I can't reverse their time, but only their positions in time. It was a neat trick, since I touched a couple bottles of booze back in that bar. Now that I think about it, let me just grab one right now..

I drank the newly teleported beer back into my hand. I can just sleep it off again, just like what I did these past years.
The tall guy never came back, leaving these 2 fuckwads infront of me..
"Ahhhh..uhh.. where are we again..? Oh yeah.. right.."
I took out a sp..a scythe and stabbed their legs.
"*Hick* There! Go now! Thank you for your time...!"- I finished off with a smile to show my sincerity.
The 2 men had these terrifying expressions embedded on their faces ever since I did smile. Was it really that horrible?
I waited for a couple of minutes to make sure they crawled far enough, and then I'd ran to them.
"P-p-p-please! PLEASE! I'm sorry!"- cried the man.
"Hahahahaha, the road is closed here, I'm *Hick* afraid you'll have to take a detour..*Hick*"
"Forgive us.. please.. I only did it for my family.."
Family..? I brought out my scythe and stabbed him as much as I could. I didn't know what I was doing, and I acted out of impulse. Ahh.. fuck it, it's not like he's going to go back and get revenge.. right?
I kicked the other man's face, and headed into the opposite direction. Then, as I could tell, I collapsed on the bench again. Augghhh.. I should've never took that bottle..
..
This is what I've become. A piece of shit drunkard who tries to get killed permanently. I didn't even know how I became a drunkard. I bet my parents would be so disappointed at me, hell, even.. even Miz. But there's not much I could do, is there? I don't even use that time travelling thing on myself anymore, because I know it will never bring me back.
Heh, I wonder what she's doing..? I don't really know how, but she just ran off. Ah fuck her, she was planning on abandoning all of us from the start anyway.
I woke up after collapsing, and fixed my head. My face was impaled on a sharp rock, and I seemingly slept there without I knowing. I don't know what's worse, the pain from the hangover, or from this rock over here.
I got up and fixed myself. I need to get out of here, this city's booze already is getting staler in my mouth. I turned around, and walked. There, I saw a trail of blood. I followed it, and it lead me to a body with wounds on his legs.
"I guess he didn't make it. Oh well.."
I passed the body and walked some more. There was a wanted poster board in the side of this building.
"Seriously.. but I've been acting good these days..?"
My face was posted in a poster on the wall. Below it read:
Nyx Kriel
Wanted Dead or Alive
Reward will be given by The Order of The 5 Knights
Ahh, damn it. They already posted it here as well. I guess I really need to get out of this city.
