Akashi ran. He ran as fast as he could down the gravel path towards the forest, his chest was beginning to tighten, his breaths were rapid; the pain of those memories were all flashing in his eyes. He didn't want to feel this way again, not if he could help it.

His pace was picking up to speeds too fast for his two feet to carry, he leaned over and before his hands could hit the dirt they had transformed into fiery red paws, but even with his werewolf form no speed was fast enough to run from the guilt in his heart. He could feel the hot tears threatening to spill from his eyes.

He ran for miles, for hours, for who knows how long, he didn't want to stop, he'd run across the world if he could. But, no matter how much he craved that, there was a specific place he knew where his paws were leading him, it was a place he couldn't forget, a place he couldn't escape his memory, a place where he felt safe.

Kuroko laid still, unmoving like a corpse, he didn't want to move; how did he get here? All he did was fall asleep at his desk, is this some kind of messed up lucid dream? But, even than if there was any chance this was a dream; Riko would defiantly wake him up, he was sure of that so he just had to wait for her? How long would that be? Are the times in this world and his the same? Is this one of things where it may be years in this world but, only seconds in another?

For once in his life, he didn't have any answers, and he wasn't sure he wanted any.

His imaginative brain was running wild with theories when he felt the tug against his pant leg. He blinked, and looked up to see the beautiful angel girl, Momoi, looking down at him with sympathetic eyes.

"I'm really sorry about Akashi, he's cursed his fate the day well…." Her voice trailed off as if she was suppressing her own voice from shaking though Kuroko could tell she was affected deeply by their deaths almost as much from Akashi.

How would he know that? Because he is someone who is able to see emotions in body language, yes but also because he created her personality.

"Well, let me show you around the village, yeah?" Momoi smiled gently, extending her hand to help Kuroko up from the couch.

The bluenette stared at her small hand that was smooth and elegant, he raised his eyes to look at her face and he could see a pinkish light emitting from her body like she was glowing, he could even see the outlines where he wings would expand to revel a brilliant color of white. She was defiantly an angel, he thinks. "I did a good job." He mumbles under his breath, reaching his hand out for hers.

Their hands interlocked and a warm feeling began to spread throughout Kuroko's body, he swore he could feel it in his blood, maybe even his bones. Maybe he did a little too well, this girl is practically radiating a mix between sunlight and cherry blossoms.

He stood up and felt his legs wobble a little bit, he looked around the room realizing that all the others had disappeared. "Where did everyone go?" He questioned, looking to Momoi again.

"They all left while you were spacing about."

"I was out of it that long?" Kuroko asked, it didn't feel like he was out for long? Probably only a few seconds?

She hummed in response. "Mhm," crossing her arms over her chest. "They thought Akashi scared you so bad you passed out without closing your eyes."

Well, that wasn't untrue.

Before, he could say anything else, Momoi wrapped her thin arms around his own; and pulled him through the door ways, pulling him outside. Kuroko narrowed his eyes, looking at the strangely colored world around him; the gravel was tinted grayish purple and all the grass for miles was perfectly green. The sky was a much paler blue than in his world, almost like it was pure white.

The angel pulled him around all over the place, she introduced him to villagers as a friend of theirs, that would be staying with the group for a while; for some reason she didn't point out that he was technically the god of this world but, it didn't matter, it's not like he wanted that attention on him, it'd just give him even more guilt than he was already feeling.

The village was shaped in a simple way, they had created a single path that led from the forest to a big house-like building towards the back, where they had come from, and the house were practically all the same style, all of them tinted a slightly darker purple than the gravel. There weren't many, probably only 4 rows on each side of the path. He asked the villagers many questions, he wanted to see if the origins of this town were the same as what he had written.

The story is that the village was very small before, smaller than it was now, before a flaming head boy and his beautiful companion, showed up one day and told the elder of the village that they would like to live here. But, since the village was so small, they had only built enough buildings to hold the population so, the elder told the pair that they had to build their own house if they wanted to live here. To them, it was a better deal than being chased out of villages as soon as they arrived, this town was so small they wouldn't have to worry about being run out for at least 8 months. So, that's what they did, both of them worked together to build a giant house towards the very back of the village, when asked by the villagers why build such a big house for the two of them, the boy simply stated that they would be bringing in more people to live in their house.

And one by one, new faces began to appear in the village, not just the people the boy brought back with him but, people who wanted to live in this village because he was there. The villagers learned of the boys heroic acts across the country, but when they confronted him; he showed them what a monster he truly was.

Or at least what he believes he is.

The villagers on the other hand think of him more as a savior and protector. Ever since he came to their tiny village, he had been protecting their children and livestock from other creatures at night, he stopped villainous people from invading and taking their land they had passed down from generation to generation; he even brought in new residence that wanted to live in such a distant village. It was like he brought the light back to this small village and they were all thankful for him.

It was terrible. It was exactly what Kuroko had written, now he was 95% sure he was in his world and if he was correct there was a training ground behind the house where the others go to practice whatever they do.

The bluenette rain quickly, hearing the light footsteps behind him, to the back of the house. He turned the corner and there he saw a cheaply put together archery range where he saw that one target had been taking hits from many arrows. His eyes lead him to the archer, Kise, with his pointy ears, perfect golden hair that fluttered perfectly in the wind, how his eyes narrowed as looked at his target and shot a perfect bull's eye with the perfect form. It was almost annoying how perfect this guy was.

He looked around the open field and saw two wolves running together or should he say chasing? Or racing? It was Kagami and Aomine, each of their furs were dirtier than Akashi's was, that was for sure. He watched as they would run for a while and then one would get annoyed with the other and tackle him and it continued in that cycle. He was shocked how the two of them had so much energy.

His eyes then led him to a pair leaning against the side of the house, one with a book in his hands and the other sat against the wall and was talking excitedly, Midorima and Takao, even though it appeared that Takao was speaking to himself, Kuroko knew that Midorima was defiantly not reading the book in his hands.

"It feels peaceful…" He absentmindedly spoke aloud, not talking to anyone.

"It's been peaceful around here for quite some time." Momoi responded with a soft voice, startling Kuroko with her reply.

Suddenly, he remembered Akashi and the anger that was in the red heads eyes. The guilt somehow grew stronger just thinking about him. "Where is Akashi?" He asked, trying to mask it with curiosity but, he knew that as soon as he got the chance he would go find him. Maybe, if they talked calmly the guilt of all the murders, fires, and discrimination he wrote piling up would go away. But, he knew it wouldn't be that easy he just hoped it would help push it away for a while until he can get out of this place.

"Hmm." Momoi tapped her chin with her finger, thinking of all the possibilities of where her beloved friend would have run off to. "He either ran across the country or is still running, or he stopped at a special cliff."

"Special?"

Wait.

She wasn't serious, was she?

"It was where Akashi and Furihata love became mutual." Momoi answered, with a tone that said, "Shouldn't you know that?"

He swallowed down whatever saliva he had left. "Can I ask for a favor?"

Akashi sat with his two legs dangling from the edge of the cliff. The sun was beginning to set, the sky was turning an orange pinkish color, and he looked out at the horizon. The only thing around were the dark green forest trees, rocks and the animals in the forest. He ran his fingers through the grass, careful not to pull any from there place.

His eyes drifted to the bottom of the cliff, there was a stream down below, he even saw a deer getting water from. This place was quiet and very lonely.

He began to lose himself to his memories, he caught glimpses of the fire, the wounds, and the blood… so much blood. He heard Furihata's agonizing scream for help. "AKASHI!"

"Akashi!" "Akashi!" "Hey!"

When he blinked, he realized that he wasn't back in that time, he looked behind him to see a blue haired boy approaching him. They were about the same height, their skin tone was the same, and they even had similar hair styles. But, despite their outer similarities, they were very different.

He stayed seated on the ground, he wasn't about to move from his spot, he could just ignore this guy and if he gets to annoying he could just push him off this cliff, couldn't he?

Kuroko approached him slowly, until he was about a few feet back from the cliff, because unlike them he was an ordinary human and if he got too close to that edge he would fall to his death and the bluenette didn't really like that idea. "Can I talk to you?"

Akashi didn't answer, there wasn't anything this guy could say-

"I'm sorry."

Okay, he might have to snap his neck. "Didn't we establish that your apology means nothing?"

There was a silence, before the red head heard Kuroko take a deep breath. "No, I'm not apologizing, well, I am but, what I mean is that I'm sorry that I apologized."

"What are you talking about?"

"I'm not going to apologize for what happened to Furihata and Murasakibara, I made those things happen because that's what I needed to happen. That's how I wrote the story line, so that it could progress, so that you could progress… I now realize how wrong I was. I used your lives as toys; and made you do lots of terrible things to people, I made you go through so much. I can't apologize because just like in my world, things happen for a reason and this your reason… But, now that I know of my mistakes I can write a better future for you, I can write a better future for everyone."

The suppressed anger began to boil within Akashi. He stood up and faced Kuroko, he walked towards him with such intimidation it caused Kuroko to fall back on his ass. "A better future? You think you can just write whatever you damn well please? You think that by writing a happy ending for me that it will somehow was away the little bit of guilt you feel? You think I'll forgive you because my friends and I got a happy ending? What about everyone else? You don't see anything. You might have created this world, but you don't understand a thing."

He glared at the bluenette with such hostility and intensity he was sure that if looks could kill, he would have died 1000x right there. Akashi walked away in a fit of anger, disappearing through the trees of the forest.

Leaving, Kuroko alone.

A/N: I'm so sorry I'm updating this like 3 months later but, I just got the inspiration to continue this story. I don't know how long this story will be or how long it will take me to update each chapter because with this one I'm trying to make longer chapters than I normally do so, that's really it. I hope you enjoyed this second chapter!
