《Kenji and Jester》Chapter 2: Wasted
Advertisement
"Kenji!" the voice shouted to which the Asian man turned to the source. As his head turned there he blinked to which his surroundings completely changed. Kenji was now back in college, he was now facing his friends but this was not possible, it must have been two years ago.
"Kenji? Wana tab mate?" A young man in a green hoodie offers. "Seems like a stressful day for ya."
Kenji blinked twice. "Brian...? I-." Kenji stutters. Slowly he tried to take in his surroundings, questioning himself how he was back. 'Is this a dream?' Kenji thought. 'It can't be real.'
"You're with Eric right Kenji? The course leader? I bloody feel for you mate." A female in a red jacket inhaled but only choked on the smoke as she inhaled. This earned her a good laugh from the other two apart from Kenji. "Fuck me!" She cursed and handed the lighter back to Brian.
"Ah heck! You wasted a good puff, Missy..." another friend called Dave laughs.
"I've never taken you for a smoker, Heather," Brain said.
"I found out that it relieves stress." She coughs, "I don't smoke too often though, Mum will kill me if she finds out."
Kenji remembers Heather's words well, ironically Kenji also started smoking because he wanted to relieve his stress but slowly it became an addiction.
"Kenji, I never asked but why are you taking the same course again?" Brian curiously asked. "I've never taken you to be a fed."
"I know right." Heather added, "What happened to the old Kenji Gordon we used to know, huh?"
Kenji's face gradually frowns with the mention of his old self. Kenji almost forgot those questions since it was two years ago, he remembered the response as well and it didn't go so well. Kenji isn't like that anymore and he doesn't want a reminder of it.

Kenji took a breath, "Times change, I guess."
At that moment at the corner of Kenji's eyes, he swore that he could see a flicker of light causing his eyes to twitch.
'What the hell?' Kenji thought. He looked around to see what could cause the light to shine. The skies are dull so the sun couldn't be the problem and nobody would be flashing lights randomly.
Seeing Kenji in an odd state, Heather tapped on his shoulder to grab his attention. "Kenji? Are you alright?
Kenji then snaps to his female friend with a slight hint of confusion. "Yeah I'm fine," he replied. "I'm just stressed -." Suddenly a shining ray blinded the Asian man. His body felt light as well as his mind. Kenji also felt motionless due to a lack of feeling of his surroundings, almost like he was floating.
"Wake up..." a voice echoed.
"What?" The light flickers around his body and slowly it forms multiple symbols around Kenji. Most of them look like a mixture of Chinese, Korean, or Hebrew.
Again, Kenji blinked and suddenly he was now staring mindlessly into River Tyne, leaning at the edge of the rail with a bottle of Strongbow in his hand. "What the hell-" before he could finish his sentence, his mind abruptly interrupts him with a flash of memories of his past to the present.
"What about Korrina?" The voice echoed through his mind as it mimicked Brain's voice.
"Korrina." an echoing voice repeats over and over in his head. Kenji's mind was bombarded with memories of him and her from the first day they met to their recent time together. Kenji could clearly remember her smiles, smell and tears before she plunges down the concrete stairs. The sound of cracking and bashing continues to haunt him to this day.

"Your fault, your fault." the voices repeated several times.
Unknowingly to Kenji, his face and eyes were violently twitching and shaking every second he thought of her. He unconsciously turned his head to the left and right as his mind was desperately trying to suppress the voices.
"How could you do this?!" Heather's voice echoed through Kenji's head. "Kenji! Kenji! You can't run from this! KENJI!"
'It's not my fault. It's not my fault. It's not my fault.' he mentally repeats.
"If you think an apology will be enough then you're more delusional than I thought!" Dave's menacing voice shouted through his ears. It felt almost as if someone had put a microphone into his ears and played it on the maximum volume.
Now with pain slowly rushing into his mind, suddenly his body felt numb and his hand tightly gripped on the rail. Then his leg slowly vaulted over the rail to Kenji's dismay. "Wha- What the actual Hell!" Kenji had no control over his body and now the Asian man was in a state of panic.
Kenji vaulted over the rails to where his body leaned down towards the river. Kenji could swear his mind was dazed by the sheer height of the bridge.
"N-N-No, What the hell?! What the bloody hell?!" Kenji's face turned pale as he shifted his head down to see the tyne river. The breeze of the wind blew at his body, giving the Asian man a nasty chill. One by one his fingers started to let go of the railings.
Seeing the situation becoming more and more daunting, Kenji could only close his eyes in fear and hoped that this was only another stupid nightmare.
"Please!...Please!" Kenji's cowering voice echoed loudly but nobody was there to hear his begging.
"Wake up...!" The voices echoed in a deafening volume. At that moment, Kenji felt light almost as if his body was in an empty void. He had his eyes tightly shut as his mind rapidly flashes his memories while his fingernails dig into his palm he clenches his fist as he waits for the Inevitable pain to be felt. Kenji swore he could see his entire memories flashing at that point, all those times,
