Rescued By Void And Space

Seven Years Ago

"It was hard at first realizing The person who cares most about you will never come again. Neither of you know this but you sometimes feel it...And many Times over the years you say you love each other only to forget to say it one last time... never say it to them".

(Deep breath)

"I am John Egbert I'm a ten years old who has lived with this great man. An amazing Father. A good worker. A Best Friend. Husband, and son. Today I give my Thanks, because he was able to raise me even if our time together was short I still Have my memories with him."

(Don't cry not now, I have to finish this.)

"He taught me to play the piano, how to cook(baked goods mostly), do excellent pranks, and be a proper gentleman. We made good memories together... And I could have never asked for a better father than Atticus Egbert and today is the most saddest day in my life for I could have never guessed I would write and give a eulogy at the age of ten".

(Don't cry he would have wished for you to be happy.)

"I thank you all for coming to his funeral and I hope you and your loved ones can spend time together longer than me and my father had and may you make the most out of it".

After that I listen to what my dad's fellow workers thought of him, how he was to them and what a great worker he was. They all wished for him to still be here. It lasted for nearly 3 hours. I felt happy knowing so many people cared about him. They all said; we hope you can find peace soon; we wish for a happier life for you; we hope you don't have to got through more troubling times. At the time these words were just a pick me up. But later I would find out words were just useless.

(If you truly meant those words... Why didn't any of you helped me then before THEY came)

Months Later But Not Many

"JOHN GET YOUR LAZY ASS DOWN HERE THIS INSTANT"

"Yes ma'am" "I told you to call me H.I.C"

(Takes A Bow)

"Sorry Her Imperial Condense. But what is the reason you have called me for?"

"I want you to prepare All the rooms We have guests arriving here in a couple of hours."

"May I ask who are the guests?"

"Better, and to answer your question it's the Felt, The midnight crew, and Doc Scratch."

"Is there anything else you want me to do after I clean The rooms."

"Yes I want you to cook the meals for Scratch he has taken a liking to the food you prepare."

"Is that all H.I.C." "No I want you to be the entertainment for today."

(Shit, no please anything but that.)

*soft groan* "Might I ask what should I perform."

"Just the usually, just play the piano"

(Thank Gods)

"But if he ask for something else I won't stop them."

*Breaks Composure* "Please don't do that!"

She starts wailing at me she does not stop for a while tell she sees me bleed a bit on the floor.

"DID YOU JUST RAISE YOUR VOICE AT ME!"

"No H.I.C, I did not mean to. Please excuse my rude behavior."

"Good, now get to work!"

This was a continuous thing for me... from the day she came to pick me up.

Months In the past but not many

She picked me up the day after the funeral, said she was family. "Hey kid, I'm your new guardian. You may not like that but I'm your closest family member it's my job now to take care of you so pack some your things you're moving to my place." At first I did not want to, she did not show any proof. but she pulled out some documents showing she was so I agreed, I packed all my cloths and was heading down stairs till...

I noticed outside there we're MiBs everywhere, so I asked her.

"Lady who are you exactly."

"Her Imperial Condense"

"Wait... aren't you the part of the nefarious Gang that has been causing nothing but trouble for- "

"Yep, now kid if you know what's good for you stop asking questions and get to the car."

"No, I think it would be in my best interest if I-"

"NOW SPADES!"

Before I Knew it I felt something hit my head and everything went black.

...

....

.....

(Where am I)

I looked around and noticed... tinted windows? I felt movement around me and saw the lady siting down arguing with someone

"Spades you idiot the plan was to only tie him up not knock him out"

"Doesn't matter the job is done sweet-heart "

...

(So his the one who knocked me out )

"Condense, snowman on the line for you." 

(What's going on)

"What is it!"

... (Ugh! I can't hear what there talking about)

"Ugh! looks like we got to prepare the house the boss is coming."

"Shit what about the kid."

"Will figure something out spades, right now we have a job to do."

__________

And they did. Here I became a worker in the house doing errands for them here and there... but when Doc Scratch comes I'm the chef and entertainment. This Goes on for a while.

One year later

"John, Lord English Wishes to speak to you."

"Yes H.I.C I'll head out now."

I walk through a long corridor and I see the Felt all against the corridor. Clover is the only one who talks. "Lord English will see you now."

I open the door and see a man looking out the window he points his hand to a chair and says "Sit down John Egbert" I comply to his demand and he turns around to look at me. He seems normal to me I don't see why the others fear him. He then pulls out a Golden cane and begins to glow and grow wings. "Its nice to meet you John Egbert"

"It's good to meet you to sir."

(Gods I see why they fear this guy, he just rubs you the wrong way.)

"So Lord English What is the reason you have summoned me."

All I saw was a grin appearing and it felt wrong. What he had planned would not end well for me.

"John I have a proposition for you and you may or may not like it."

"What is it sir."

(Gods please don't let it be anything worse than what I have now, I don't think I can take it anymore)

"You are going to be my new servant, my new member. "

"With all due respect Sir, why me."

"Simple really, you have something most of my Lackeys don't have... a reason to live, continue and prosper free."

"What do you mean Sir?"

"Will to be a part of my gang you need to do something."

"And what is that Sir?"

"Kill the Condense. And if you need motivation... She was the one who had your father killed."

After he said that I felt something break inside I think it was what I had left of the sane inside me After that everything felt...like nothing.

"SHE DID WHAT!"

For a while everything was blowing in the room I heard Thunder around us, and I ran Towards the Condense I did not know what I was doing. But when I saw her.

"CONDENSE I'M GOING TO KILL YOU!"

"What, how dare you spea-"

She was not able to finish, I had started punching her. Hitting and hitting till I could not feel anything in my hands. After what felt like hours I looked at what I had done. She was a mess of blood,puffed flesh, and hair. Lord English came in the room and saw what I had done. He first checked her pulse and started laughing.

"HA HA HEE HEE"

"Good job John. Now it's time for your name, as part of my gang its a way of showing your new beginning."

I just nodded... After what I did I couldn't feel anything really... Just some emptiness I just listened to his speech.

"Your name for our group will be the Heir Of Breath, for the fact you will be the judge of who will always breath."

After that we started training for five years

---------------

In the summer of the fifth year he said "You're ready John, it took us awhile but you are ready for your first solo job."

"What is your command Lord English."

"I need you to Infiltrate a certain school."

" What must I do."

"I need you to kill some people and take some information, it's hidden inside the school."

"What is the Information?"

"It's called projectNEW SUN."

"And what should I expect from there."

"People Like us with the power to command , though they're limited on what they can do... unlike us."

"So I should expect some retaliation sir."

"Yes but this will push you forward some." 

(Maybe you'll be my new body.)

"And what should I do to them? just kill them or do you wish for me to bring them for Doc Scratch's Experiments."

"Bring Some interesting ones in."

"Yes, sir."

"And john."

"Yes... Lord English."

"Do not fail."

"I won't sir."

And with this I began my first solo job. At the school know as Skia prep.
