Chapter Text
It was an another cozy and pleasant day at Yoylecity. A huge abandoned city, place where the grass and leaves are purple. It located far away from Goinky. It's giving nostalgia. Unlike how Leafy has been.
Leafy was hated and excluded by the others contestants or even some newbies because something she had done for years ago. No matter how much she struggles or tries to regain their trust in her again, especially him...
The Battle For Dream Island Again contest. The competition is over. Book has won in that competition with insane votes by audiences and received the Dream island(?) I meant A chunk of farmland.
Those BFDIA contestants decided to move from Goiky to Yoylecity after the contest ended.
Leafy banned from their only recovery center, The Hand-powered recovery center so that mean..
If Leafy harm herself with her blade again, so these scars will stay with her forever. She can't die. She can't escape, she can't hide them. Even Book noticed that details while advising her.
Leafy missed that chance to redeem herself. Not really nice girl. She was never a good contestant. She is just playing nice.
Leafy nearly end her life forever. Nobody would recover her. Nobody?
Firey? No, He definitely hate her and now.. he's in that cage
Pin? She still despises her even though she helped Leafy a lot in BFDIA 21.
Ice cube? Same as Pin but she would never help Leafy even for once.
Bubble? After she knows the reason everyone hates Leafy, she slowly drift herself away from her. Probably dislike her too.
Tennisball. Leafy thought that her and TB were troubled the same or similar problem.
It's true but he won't admit it because he hates her.
Book..? She wants to help Leafy by entertaining her. And.. Leafy missed that chance to be better. Book is way nicer than her.
Flower... She's just like her. Everyone hate her like Leafy. She definitely hate her too but..
That line still stick in her mind
“Wrong! *I* don't hate myself, so not everyone hates me, but it sure is a shame that YOU hate yourself”
Her harsh words actually made Leafy feel a little better because it reminds her that at least she doesn't hate herself.(really? If she doesn't really hate herself. Why would she slit her arms?)
The conflict in her mind.
Flower might be a good listener for Leafy but she will definitely judge her harshly. All Leafy want is someone who listens and understands her, Don't judge her and give her some advice. Is there anyone now?
The original BFDI Contestants would sprint away from her if she appears infront of them.
But what about Spongy? He's a good listener and he could comfort her so well but he's dead plus he might dislike her too. Not really perfect timing.
Leafy doesn't know much about those newbies in LOL(TLC). They're still stuck inside the large metal boxe inside the larger metal box again. So they may not be very good choices for now.
What about newbies? There are so few contestants that she could rely on or having a listening and understand skills, but there's someone in her mind that could actually calm her down. Plus most of them DEFINITELY hate Leafy.
Why don't Leafy try redeem herself with Book again? The winner of BFDIA. She seemed kind, capable and calm as she can see how she act during the competition. She also help her before the final votes announced.
Book just remind Leafy of herself in old BFDI competition, but Book never caused a big problem like her.. right? She's really way better than her. Last time Book told Leafy to leave and keep herself. She doesn't want to be treated like this again damnit.
Whatever it take. She's the best choice for her now.. She is kind enough to let Leafy has a second (Third) chance. So where's she?
Book is probably around somewhere in Yoylecity. Leafy's going to find her, hoping anothers Freesmart-ers won't get in the way of them.
As Leafy been wandering around the urban wasteland, the progress to find the winner of BFDIA. It's really huge towns full of abandoned places and buildings which they don't look like ruins at all at first sight. Pretty much, too giant for all contestants.
Cold breeze blows through purple, like those wind could sweep away her hopes, but that doesn't bother her determination. Bushes, leaves rustle with every step she walk. Breathing.
They sounds crunchy and satisfying enough to calm her down from bad thoughts.
Book is standing next to the Hand-powered recovery center, observe for abnormalities about it. She didn't look back.
“Greeting, Book! It's uhm.. kinda nice to meet you again.” Leafy appeared right behind Book. “Gah!! Leafy!?” Book gasped before she open her mouth again.
“What are you doing here, Leafy? Didn't I told you to leave and keep yourself!?” Book snapped at Leafy. “Oh uhmm I-I..” She swallowed. “I told you to leave and you didn't listen to me!” Book stared at Leafy. She doesn't mad, she just disappointed.
“No Book! I.. want to redeem again.. I realised I really need your help. I need a second chance It's my fault I have to return the Dream island but..”
Book interrupted her before Leafy could end her sentences “But what!? That was already your second chance! Leafy, You sure you'll return the Dream island to Firey?” Leafy flinched a little when she interrupted her.
“Oh hey, Book! Listen to me please! Yeah I realised I have to return the Dream island to everyone but.. I don't know how. The dream island is gone it's just.. disappeared. I don't know how to fix that though..” Leafy confessed and sighed softly.
Book crossed her arms. “Disappeared? You sure?” She questioned. “Ah totally.. you didn't understand.” Leafy replied abruptly.
“Yeah!! Of Course I didn't understand! It's hard to get to know you! Everyone was right.. You deserve to be alone.” Book argued, pointing her finger at Leafy. “Book..”
Leafy signed. “Yeah! You're right I totally need to be separated I'm the worst I'm the devil I'm evil!! Is that right!?” She yelled at Book and walking towards her.
“Leafy!” Book screamed her name and walking backwards as Leafy stepping closer to her. “You don't know everything!! You.. know nothing! Of course it's complicated to understand me!!” Leafy continue to get closer almost corner Book into the HPRC.
“Wh-”, “Shush! Book!” Leafy cover Book's mouth with her hand. Book struggle to get rid of her hand that cover her mouth.
She sign “Book.. If you were me. You'll understand how it feels.” The guilt has eaten her mind. She take her hand off Book's mouth, Letting her to say something.
“That must been really hard for you. I'm sorry you feel that way.” Leafy finally smiled after listening to Book's words. “This is what I expected from you. Book, you're the true winner.”
“Hey Leafy! I think I have an idea! I think I can convince other people that if I can free Firey from the cage up there!” Book adviced her.
The tone of emotions change so quickly. The smile on Leafy become neutral when she heard Book mentioned Firey. “You think it's a good idea?”
“Don't get me wrong. I really want to help you! Maybe he secretly wants to forgiv-” Someone just interfered and separate them away.
“Leafe- Oh Needle!?” Needle grabbed Book and sprints away from Leafy and the HPRC. “I was looking for you! Why won't you run away from- Wait..”
Needle suddenly stop running and put Book down. “Needle, Calm down!” Said the book. “No way- She's still alive!!!??” She says loudly with her high pitched voice.
“N-Needle! Hear me out! Don't tell anyone this!” Needle gasped because she was running way too last minutes ago.
“Ha- hmm okay! Because we're finalists, Aren't we!?” Needle replied.
They leave Leafy hanging there. All alone what's next. Leafy is watching as Needle and Book ran from far away from the HPRC. Leafy signed and turned around, face to the huge recovery center(HPRC).
She wonders if she could..
Leafy stepped closer to the HPRC keyboard and starting to write Firey's name. All of this pain happened just because he didn't let Leafy into Dream island. It's all because of him.
She would probably like to forgive him for that anyway, but will he forgive her too? It's up to him.
Leafy barely touched the keyboard. She only clicked the letter "F" to spell his name, the HPRC suddenly made a loud noise. That makes Leafy flinched a little. It shows error code, and display the words "This function cannot works."
What happened to it? Was Firey ban from the recovery center too? Or HPRC actually broken? So many questions in Leafy's mind at a single time.
There's nothing she can do like actually nothing. Leafy doesn't know where is Firey, what did Book think about her in her perspective, When will everyone finally forgive her.
It's endless loop.
Leafy walks away, go back to where she was. Her claimed house is the safest place now. She took a step forward and bowed her head. The frown on Leafy's face.
The sunset shining all over the pinkish-yellow sky. The sun goes down like Leafy's emotions. The cold breeze flew away unlike that her hope immediately fades away in a second.
Leafy finally reached her claimed house, get inside and slammed the door behind her. It's too much like way too much. She already lost her second chance and now her third chance also disappeared.
She grabbed her head forcefully with her hand, she wants. No. She NEED to get rid of it. These negative thoughts in her head. It's hurt. So much.
Leafy is too overwhelmed and overloaded that she accidentally tore her head a little bit. The pieces of her head and her body too. Blood.
She slowly stepped backwards. At least she doesn't reach the point that she would ripped herself apart. What have she done.
“No no no no no no no no... ” Leafy bend down over the pieces of leaf from her. Blood continued to flow on her head. It's not any better it's way worse than before. Leafy head injuries so bad that she can't even walk straight.
Leafy burst into tears. Water on her face. The vision blurry. She tried to stand up and walk to a drawer nearest her, but her body is too fragile because of brain damage caused by herself.
What a pity weak loser leaf! She quickly claws into a drawer. Her head hits the desk which is even worse. Another brain damage.
Hurt hurt hurt hurt hurt hurt hurt hurt hurt hurt hurt hurt hurt hurt hurt hurt hurt hurt hurt hurt.
But when her head bumped into the desk. Leafy saw something fell off that desk. It's a sharp object like a knife but it's not a knife. Green handle and sharp metal thing. Cutter.
Leafy eyes turned wide when a cutter fell off the desk she was bumping into. It's hurt so much. She's gonna end this all. She WILL end all this pain and guilt. It would be more peaceful if she was gone.
She grabbed that cutter immediately. What will she do?
