Fred's Leap
The Never Ending Quest - Episode 60991
|
Until now, Fred had never known what pain was. All his life, he'd thought
pain came from a sword, lance, or whip. However, he now knew those things
were nothing more irritations. True pain pierced the flesh more than any
dagger or mace could ever hope to inflict. . True pain was indescribable.
True pain was inconceivable. True pain was unbearable.
"This is all my fault!" Fred's mind screamed. "I was supposed to protect her. I'm the reason she's dead! Granas, why couldn't I save her?" He hated himself; He hated his body. He hated his soul. He hated his life. "I'm a monster…I'm a killer…The world would be better without me." He stared over the edge in despair. Suddenly, it hit him. "I know what I must do" He thought. It was so simple and obvious. Why hadn't he thought of it sooner? Fred ceased his mourning and stood up straight. He looked over the edge in envy."Fred?" Skye asked worriedly in the distance. "What are you doing?" "I know what I must do" Fred said aloud. For a moment, it was as if time froze, then, Fred leapt over the edge as far he could. "FREEEEEEEED!!!" Skye shrieked. His cries could be heard from miles away, but Fred's ears were deaf to them."This is it" Fred thought madly as he plunged into the clouds of cold mist. They drenched every inch of his clothes and armor. If he fell much longer, he would freeze to death. "Finally, it will all end! Finally, I will be no more!" Fred looked down at the water below. "Hurry up! Fred thought ragingly. "Reach the end, reach the end, Oh Granas, please, reach the end…" Fred reached the end.
