It was the same position Koutarou sat into one week later, only this time his gaze was focused on the gravestone in front of him.
There were footsteps approaching him and a moment later, he could feel a hand gripping on his shoulder. Then, someone crouched down next to him.
"What's this?" Tetsurou asked and pointed at the book in Koutarou's hands.
"The Book Thief" he answered and stroked the worn out cover gently with his fingers.
"I didn't know you were into books."
"It was Keiji's favorite" he told him, still not tearing his gaze away from the epigraph on the marble in front of him.
"I've finished reading it yesterday."
For the third time he wanted to add, but didn't.
"I see."
It was silent for a moment, before his best friend continued.
"Have you cried already?"
Koutarou placed the book on the heap of soil in front of him and finally got up, Tetsurou following his matter.
The hand on his shoulder appeared again and this time squeezed it tightly in a supportive way.
He turned to his best friend and smiled sadly."I don't think he would've wanted me to."
At this, Tetsurou pulled him into a hug and Koutarou hesitated for a moment before hugging him back tightly.
"He would've wanted me to continue on, Tetsu..."
"I know" the other whispered before slowly pulling away, a faint smile gracing his lips.
"Hey, are you ready for your first day back in practice?"
Koutarou rubbed the corner of his eyes with his sleeve and finally put on his infamous bright smile.
"You can bet."
"Let's go, then."
Tetsurou squeezed his shoulder one last time before letting go and going ahead across the graveyard.
Koutarou didn't turn back when he finally followed him.
He didn't know what his future would bring.
But he knew he would never forget the boy with a heart made of glass that was called Akaashi Keiji.

The Traveling Shop Keeper
Humanity has survived on Earth thanks to the Towers created by the AI council, sheltering humanity from the damage done to the earth from the war. To help humanity through the idea of living in upgraded caves, it created a method to digitize the human concious, allowing a user to enter a completely digitized world. Tyler, just hitting the required age to safely digitize into his local Tower digital world, is in a race to establish his trading company head office. With HYTOMA running for over 150 years, competition is fierce to buy property against other trading guilds, and the richer, more powerful raiding guilds. He could imagine that in his excitement that he would run into a Wanderer, a human that snubs their nose at the Towers, and spend their time wandering the ruined planet. Surviving by scrounging up old PC hard drives, and selling them back to the AI Council, allowing AI to add lost information to the Tower Network, and impoving the digital world. Hang on for a ride, as Tyler discovers he was given a hidden class by the ruling AI entity, slowly rolling through a digital world on a rickety cart. Will this Traveling Shop Keeper survive dragons, and lead Humanity out from the Towers, into a brand new world built by Articifical Intellegence? Note: I am a new writer with difficulty getting words from my head to sheet, so edits will be frequent. I do not have an editor, if you are interested, I am more than willing to discuss options for your involvement.

And they seemed to have come back... well, different. Upon his arrival, he receives a package in the mail. It's marked only with his name, followed by the words "Bent Fork."

Lilith's first time parachuting at night was a disaster. Fictional Gods clashed before her eyes. Caught in the crossfire, Lilith traveled through Space and Time. Her reality was turned into her favorite childhood game, Pokemon. The beginning of journey shrouded in the Dark. A Pursuit of something Greater. *** Author Notes: As a writer, I enjoy the 'How' and 'Why' thing happen in a story over 'What' happens. This will not, however, diminish plot points in the story. Each Arc will be well thought out. This Fanfic explores what it would be like in a reality where Pokemon exist. Most other Fanfics are based on game or anime logic. I will be taking the point of view of a Progression Fantasy. I will try to update every Weekday at Noon Central. P.S. I do this for fun. As I am an amateur writer, I expect complaints and criticism. Anything other than constructive will be ignored. Well thought out Reviews, please. *I Do NOT own Pokemon in any way, shape or form. *I created the Cover in all its pixilated glory.
