Notes Written by Yang of the Outside World / Wang Shui (cabin fishing area) / Chapter 9: Your World
Transcript:
[I let her die. I killed her. I am the one who killed her. Whatever the reason, whatever the course of the event, I am the one who killed her. I didn't want her to die. I didn't want to kill her. I wanted her to live. I wished she would come out of her age and discover the world outside. But my thoughts mean nothing because she is no longer here.
At first, I couldn't understand at all why she desired my violence. But now, I think I understand why she had to drive herself into such a dreadful situation. I think she never intended to put herself into a corner. She just accepted as a given that the world is a more dreadful place.
That was what the world was to her. The world she wished to live in was far more dreadful. And that was the only world she knew. She had no other choice. It is very possible that seeking violence from me was the only communication means she could choose.
A one way communication.
A one way road and a vehicle that can only travel in a certain direction on that road.
The relationship between a road and a vehicle. The domain able to change is surrounded by the domain not able to change. The melancholy of the road and the melancholy of the vehicle exist here. But the problem is, of course, the melancholy of the vehicle. We should just leave the melancholy of the road be. Because the road is also a vehicle, and the only true problem (domain that needs to change) for the road is its melancholy as a vehicle. The only role in the road-vehicle relationship is to let the vehicle travel smoothly as possible.
However, there are people in this world that don't think so. Or people that don't want to think or refuse to think so. You can call them anyway you want. It's just that there are people that don't make such effort. A vehicle with a broken engine becomes dependent on the sloping road. Stagnant water becomes dependent on the vessel. This is the logic of the people that make no such effort. But the fact is, there is no vehicle with a broken engine or stagnant water. They are nothing more than slaves created by the sloping road and the vessel.
Then, why do sloping roads and vessels need such slaves? That's simple. The sloping roads and vessels have forgotten they are also vehicles and water. Or they are afraid to admit it. They have become a sloping road or vessel by escaping from their fear of failure, by seeking security, and by presenting themselves from changing. And the sloping roads and vessels will lose their meaning of existence of there is no vehicle or water. That is ridiculous. No one can escape from being a vehicle or water. Everything is the content as well as the vessel. You can't choose only one of the two.
"First, it approaches me smiling. It raises its hand smiling and surprises me. Its face is facing me, but it is not looking at me. The face is a mask. It is a mask, but it starts moving. The moving mask is made of many worms and makes incomprehensible sound. I can't move. When I look closer, I see that the whole body of that something wearing a worm mask is also made up of worms. The worms grab my hands and hair and shake me. The world starts to spin, and everything burst. And then, my surroundings turn pitch black.
There's a hole. I go into it. But inside the hole, my arms and legs become heavy, and I can't move. It is sloshy, and I can't go anywhere because it clings to my body. I can't go anywhere. No, it's not my fault. I've done nothing. Then, I open my eyes and find the smiling face in front of me again. Tons of worms are smiling. The world spins, bursts, and turns pitch black. This is repeated again and again. No matter how I struggle, it doesn't change. I can never escape from it. That is my world. That is why I decided to find a deeper hole inside the hole. I'm going to keep going into the hole to find a hole that is not sloshy..."
Everyone has strange delusions. Most of them are stupid delusions caused by stupid reasons. Maybe all delusions are stupid. But that's not what matters. There is a reason for a reason, and there is a reason for that reason too. What I'm saying is, stupid things are not just stupid.
However, I'm not saying that everything deserves to be justified. I don't mean to say that. Instead, I am talking about the domains that can't be measured by fairness or unjustness.
A world where psychophysical law is everything. A world that may not be scientific, but too physical. (It's just that the subjects that should be standard are not encoded yet.) No one can escape from this power relationship. Not even me. In fact, I couldn't escape from its power.
I started to help her find her deep hole. The reason is simple -- she wanted me to help her. At the same time, I opened the gate to my wickedness. Because I couldn't help her without opening the gate. The quest for her deep hole escalated gradually, and as it escalated, she was gnawed by anxiety and was worn down more than ever. But she kept telling me that we are almost there. And I became unable to distinguish between guilt and pleasure. It is difficult to say that people can get used to anything, but I think it is possible to become numb.
I don't know if the deep hole she wanted is a numb place or not. But I got obsessed with constantly renewing my numbness toward myself. There was only action with no room for empathy.
And this action woke up my memories of the past which I had sealed up.
Everyone grows up surrounded by overwhelming violence. This is a generality. Everyone is raised as a vehicle set on a sloping road. In this process, I tried to fight this reality by using equal violence. It means I was wicked enough from the beginning.
But as I grew up, I sealed that wickedness with absurd things like ethics, honesty, and love. Still, I don't think I ever had any ethics or honesty, let alone love.
I only saw them as something like clouds in the sky. They never belonged to me. And I had many chances to verify this perception, not only for myself but also for all others.Not only me but everyone revealed their true nature so easily.
The clouds floating in the sky were nobody's They belonged to no one.
Nobody can become a cloud in the sky. People only wish to have them. People just keep wishing for them. Those clouds never come down to earth. I think those clouds are wishes themselves.
But I don't believe that everyone is born as a wicked being, Wickedness is only part of a being, not the whole. Or merely a process of a movement. That's what I thought. But I was almost taken over by the wickedness which was only a part of me. This temptation got stronger every time I answered her request. That is how I drifted away from the clouds floating in the sky. Although I never lost sight of them.
I frequently imagined me and her switching bodies. it's a wild imagination. It was impossible, and there was no point in imagining it. And whether I desire it or not, no change will happen. Only physical violence can create change. But what she probably wanted was probably not violence but the result of violence. That is dependence. I know that. There is no identity there. Only the possibility of a body able to change.
There was one time I felt she and I were sharing her hole. At that time, I felt for sure that I was in the hole with her. But I was the one who felt that way, not her. I don't know if she felt she had shared the hole with me or not. She might have needed me, but what she needed was my violence, not me. Becoming violence is the only way to be needed by her. But even so, she says it has to be me.
I felt like all the words' meanings peeled off from the ground and scattered into the air. And I was left on the ground with nothing. There was only ground on the ground I was standing on. The ground had no meaning, and I'm the only one standing on it. That is probably how I also became a slave to the hole. And that hole is different from her hole.
I probably shouldn't have answered her requests. I shouldn't have opened the gate to my wickedness. But I couldn't imagine myself choosing another path.
The two holes never intersect. They are different holes. By trying to get close to her, I opened another hole that will never intersect.
A song which entered from the wrong entrance cannot sing. A song which entered from the wrong entrance can only be at a loss. It is a song that can't be sung. The song that can't be sung can only be repeated in their own places. She and I were both singing a song that entered from the wrong entrance, a song that can't be sung, but in different holes.
And the end came abruptly. We didn't reach the end of the path of exploration. We simply failed.]

I recently discovered a game called Garage: Bad Dream Adventure, and i compleatly loved it at the first sight. With it's rustic yet grotesquely charming setting, it clicked in my head as something to remember. So here's Yang, who's on his way to get some crabs and feed the females.

Lasting Embers part 29: The Gift
The long awaited day is finally here; the day nobody wanted to come. The famous and secret heroes of Remnant finally close the distance to venture off to a threat bigger than any of them. Friends and family by their side not ready to say goodbye but have to nonetheless. All but one that is.....a young and broken girl who still sits against her door; not moving once through the entire night.
[Jaune’s house]
Yujin:......*looks at her window*
Sunlight breaking through the blinds...
Yujin:(It’s morning huh? Have I really been sitting here the entire night? Wonder what time it is? Maybe it’s already past ten and they’re gone.) *looks around* (where’s my scroll?)
She keeps swiveling her head to spot it until it’s painfully clear she has to stand up to look. Blood eventually flows back into her legs and she’s able to move. High and low she search’s for it until she spots it under the door crack.
Yujin:All that searching and it was right next to me. *opens door* I guess I really am slip-......
Yujin:*picks up a small box wrapped in white, yellow, and blue.*.......(Mom did say was leaving the gift here didn’t she? It feels light; maybe it’s a-......why should I care? Why...do I care?)
Her finger rubs the thin paper; surprisingly, it looks like it came from a professional. One thing is for sure, Yang spared no expense when it came to effort. It irritated her slightly to know that. The box was held and admired for a solid five minutes by now. Maybe it would’ve been less time but deciding if she should open it was difficult. What she was holding just might be the last thing she ever gets from her mother. No matter what it is or how she feels it was a truth she had to accept.
Yujin:(It might not be my birthday anymore but still....*undoing paper* it’s only right to open a gift.) Hmm?
Yujin:*lifts up a scroll and a journal*.........(no way they’re school supplies.) *open it*
“Hey Yujin it’s me your mother, but I guess that’s pretty obvious isn’t it? Sorry, writing was never my strongest skill set in school so this might get a little clumsy so to speak. If you’re reading this then I just want to say thank you; taking the time to look at this means the world to me. I also want to apologize for being a terrible mother....."
Yujin:.....
“No matter how I slice it, some of the words you said was true about me. Going off to fight these villains instead of trying to defend you while staying close does not sound or look good. Knowing Summer, she would’ve attempted to at least make it work. Unfortunately I’m not her; the only way I know how to protect you is like this. Fighting along side our family and friends; yeah I’m including Adam in that. Honestly I see some of grit in you and it’s pretty damn awesome. I see so much of everybody who’s got to raise you throughout the years when we interact. Jaune’s will, Mom’s poise, Dad’s heart, and even aspects from Ren and Nora. The only person I don’t really see is me; it stings if I’m being truthful. All you wanted was to get to know me and I’ve robbed you of that. I won’t make the same mistake again.”
Her heart nearly stopped as she turned the page. The left side was more of the message written to her. The right side on the other hand wasn’t a message at all; it was a table of contents. Birthdays, first fights, training, vacations, adventures, it was everything. In just under a week Yang Xiao Long had written about what seemed to be every major and memorable thing in her life. The story of her mother was currently in her hands.
“I know it’s no replacement for a face to face conversation but in this journal I’ve written numerous things about myself so you can know who I am. On the scroll you’ll fine videos of the events in the book; it’s named and put into chronological order thanks to your Aunt. You deserve to see me at my best and worst moments of my life; to know I’m not as glamorous as anybody might make me out to be. Learning about me though isn’t the only thing I wanted to share with you finally. Yujin I want to be able to push you forward in life; be a mother and help figure problems that might come you way. We didn’t get to do much together but if we did anything it was fight. The final chapters was everything I noticed in each one. Not only that but I’ve made a list of possible ways for your Semblance to be used. I hope it’s useful somehow.
Sure enough the list was there and detailed. The back of the book was filled with experimental new tricks that Yujin wouldn’t have began to dream off. Each one carfully described and some drawn for reference.
“I know it never seemed like I was there for you, but I’ve always been in your corner to cheer you on. Despite how you feel about me and whatever happens to me out there, know my love for you will never die. You’ll always be my little ember dragon.”
Yujin:....*starts searching through the scroll* First Day At Beacon? *hits play*
Yang:Yo this is Yang Xiao Long, future huntress extraordinaire. Making this little vlog on the airship because my dad is corny and wants memories. Not all bad though because *flips camera*
Ruby:*hides face* Don’t record me! I
Yang:My baby sister gets to join me! Isn’t she the cutest?
Yujin:(They look so young. I wonder if....) *fast forwards*
Yang:So that air ride could’ve gone better. Some guy ended up getting vomit on my shoe. He’s lucky it wasn’t my hair.
Yujin:(Yep...)
Ruby:Give him a break. Not like he wanted to do it.
Yang:Defending strangers huh? A model huntress already, or is puberty finally hitting you?
Ruby:Puberty has been here thank you very much! He is pretty cute though when his face didn’t look green.
Yang:Eh, not really my type. *video ends*
A small smile creeps onto her face that immediately changes to shock as she continues to searchl. Maybe it was out of instinct but her finger immediately kept scrolling until found it on the day of her birth. The file was named “Sundrop” The video opens with a very tired Jaune holding the camera and pointing it at an even more tired Yang.
Jaune:*whispering* Here we are at Vale General Hospital. It’s very late and we’re both very tired but it doesn’t matter. What matters is the little sundrop my amazing wife is holding.
Yang:*snickering* Sundrop? Not sure how I feel about that.
Jaune:It only makes sense the sunshine in my life gave birth to a smaller sunshine.
Yang:*cuddling her* As far as I’m concerned she shines brighter than me already. Just look at her, I can’t believe I’ve made something so perfect. From here on out it’s all about her from now on; forever and always. *smiles softly*
Yujin:.....*eyes watering*
Jaune:Uh oh, it’s been thirty minutes and Yang has officially lost her mind over this baby.
Yang:Our baby, and it’s been nine months and thirty minutes thank you very much. *kisses it’s forehead* Your daddy is acting like he’s not head over heels for you Yujin. Don’t worry though, as soon as he turns the camera off he’s gonna want to hold you and cry.
Jaune:Possibly.....*video ends*
Yujin:*wipes her eyes*(There’s......so much here. Six days and it’s so detailed. If this is about her life then what’s the last vid-)
“Homecoming”
Yujin:This date is....*presses play*
Ruby is recording her sister as she anxiously bounces her leg on the train ride home. You can tell het smile is filled with happiness and worry.
Ruby:Hello future me or whoever is watching this. You’re currently watching my big sister silently losing her mind as we finally head home from a.....I think eleven years of fighting evil. She’s so worked up that I don’t think she notices that the train seats are heating up and people are staring.
Yang:I’m what? *red* oh, sorry everyone! My bad.....
Ruby:*laughing* Please calm down. It would be a shame if you died of a heart attack before we made it home.
Yang:How can I be calm!? In a few more hours I’ll have Yujin in my arms again.
Ruby:You know she’s not four anymore right?
Yang:I know that, I can still hug her. Hehe I wonder how big she’s gotten, if she’s made friends, *gasp!* maybe even a boyfriend!?
Ruby:Calm down there dork. You’ll see her soon.
Yang:Hopefully she’ll recognize me; hopefully I recognize her. My four year old is fifteen today. *tearing up* God it’s been such a long time. Soon things will be calm; finally I can spend the rest of my life with her. She’s probably absolutely stunning by now. *smiles*
Ruby:Geez you’re about to smother Yujin, I can already tell. Hopefully she’s not in an angsty teen phase.
Yang:Even if she is I’m still gonna smother her! Things are looking up! *video ends*
She didn’t bother to play another video after that. Instead she decided to just stare at the screen as the journal in her hand got gripped tightly. Soon after, the screen became blurry to her; tears kept finding new ways to sneak their way out of her. This time though it was different than the rest. Anger, frustration, and sadness was what kept her down before; now it was the feeling that bothered her all week. For seven days and seven nights she’s done nothing but push out someone who’s been desperately trying to reach her just like how she wanted to reach out to them. The only difference is Yang never stopped trying to reach out for her. Yujin knew exactly what this feeling was and it was about to eat her alive. Guilt and Regret we’re going to ruin any memory she has of her mother, unless......
Yujin:*looks at the scroll*
“8:45 am”
Yujin:*rushing down stairs* Please tell me took grandpa’s car. Please tell me- *looks in garage*
Sure enough, her car was there and ready for use.
Yujin:*wipes her face* Okay..... I can do this.....
[Train Station]
Vale’s train station is one of the remaining architectural works that survived The Fall of Beacon. From here it’s the jumping off point to the rest of Remnant. This feeling is echoed by the fact that even though it’s called a station, there isn’t a real building. A massive slap of concrete with a umbrellas for shade is mostly what is here besides the ticket punchers with their small booths. It’s old fashioned but it works; people come and go from here often. Unfortunately Yang and Ruby didn’t think they’d be here so soon again; at least it’s a beautiful day out. Warm weather and a gentle breeze that blows through the rolling hills behind the rails gives off a sense ease.
Yang:Ruby can I tell you something?
Ruby:You can tell me anything.
Yang:This just might be the worse day of my entire life.
Ruby:Definitely top ten.
Yang:At least I have you though.
Ruby:Always....*grabs her hand*
Raven:You haven’t always had me but I’m definitely here for you! *smiles*
Yang:*snorts* Never doubted it for a moment. I wonder if everyone is still going to show up?
Weiss:What, you think we would “snowflake?”
Yang:Weiss get seri- oh hey you’re here. Wait, did you just make a pun!?
Neo:*walks up* She’s been waiting to say that for a week.
Ruby:Oh hey! I didn’t think you were gonna decide to come.
Neo:Nah I’m not coming; I’m not leaving the Arcs like that. They have good food; I’m just here to see Weiss off. *grabs her hand*
Weiss:*blushing*.......
Ruby and Yang:!!??
Weiss:It’s been an interesting week.
Ruby and Yang:I’ll say....
Tai:*looks at Jaune*......
Jaune:In my defense it wasn’t my idea. Also what were you and Raven doing for a week?
Tai:I can’t tell if you’re more like me or if Yang is more like me. Either way I guess I shouldn’t complain. I’m glad you’ve been someone they could always depend on. I couldn’t ask for a better son-in-law.
Jaune: That means a lot; think they’ll be okay.
Tai:Are you kidding? No one stops our family as long as they’re together.
Adam:Believe me, challenging them alone is a struggle in its own right.
Everyone:Turns to see Adam clothes similar to his days robbing trains. The only difference is the flower symbol is missing and a cloak is over it. His eyes are hidden by shades and even his hair is dyed black. The rest of the family, along with Ilia, and Blake walk behind him.
Yang:Okay so I have two major questions. One, why dye the hair when it’s already long and laid down.
Adam:Just in case.
Yang:Second, I learned you have my sister’s number for years. Why exactly?
Adam:*pulls out cross necklace* rose’s recognize other rose’s
Yang:*looks at Ruby*
Ruby:*holding a cross necklace* It’s a story for another time; maybe on the train ride sis.
Yang:I literally can’t with you all.
Jael:She’s not what I quite expected. What do you think Sien-
Sienna:Uh..excuse me? M...Mrs. Xiao Long?
Yang:Hmm? Well hello there, need something?
Sienna:*ears down* I’m not sure if you remember me but we’ve met before. You actually helped save my life when I was six. I bit your hand?
Yang:......*rubs her ears* Of course I remember you silly. How’ve you been? You’ve grown like a weed. *smiles*
Sienna:*wide eyed* Good! I’ve been really good! You may know or not but I have a sister now. *steps aside*
Jael:.....
Yang:Hey there *crouches* I’ve heard a bit about you. Adam makes cute kids I see.
Jael:Th...thanks. I’ve heard much about you; also your daughter.
There was a sort of coldness in her voice that everyone felt. Her absence was noticeably missed and it took Yang by surprise for her to mention it. Jael didn’t look worried though; she looked eager. Almost like she’s got an itch that desperately needs to be scratch.
Yang:Unfortunately she’s not here. Things for her are rough with all this going on.
Jael:She didn’t want to see you off?
............
Yang:*frowns* No, she didn’t.
Jael:Oh, sorry to hear that. Excuse me but I need a moment. *quickly walks off*
Jacquelyn:uhhh I’m just gonna...yeah. *follows her*
As Jael walks away Tenzen and company pass by her. No glances were exchanged but there wasn’t a need for any.
Tenzen:*stops walking*.......*turns around*
Ren:Everything okay?
Tenzen:Yeah.....just got a chill or something. I didn’t like it. *continues walking*
Jacquelyn:Hey Jael are you-
Jael:She doesn’t even show up to see her family off, is obviously angry with her mom about it, gotten our family roped into it by accident or not. I’m beginning to think I don’t have to actually meet this person before I form my opinion like you guys want.
Jacquelyn:......You hate her don’t you? Even after what your father told you.
Jael:He’s leaving to help protect me but I’m not dumb enough to believe not a piece of it is for her. Just thinking about how someone so loved and blessed with opportunity can be so....so.... *clenches her chest* yeah, I hate her.
Jacquelyn:*slightly opens up her kimono* look at this for me.
Jael:*staring at a scar below her ribs* A scar? How long have you had that?
Jacquelyn:Years, your father gave it to me on accident.
Jael:Wh....what? Why would he.....I thought.... he loves you.
Jacquelyn:Yeah, but you gotta remember the dad you see wasn’t how he used to be. A long time ago hate ruled his life. One time when our Oasis was still being built people came and destroyed everything. They didn’t know who we were, just low lives causing pain. Any time we relocated either grimm got the better of the place or them. We were tired and hungry; him especially. So when they came back again your father was ready to kill them despite my wishes.
Jael:You wouldn’t let him fight?
Jacquelyn:It was a delicate time for him. I was afraid any back pedaling would ruin any progress already made. There were times I fought them but more and more kept coming. Eventually Adam finally lashed out and it did actually scare them away; it wasn’t enough for him though. While one was running away Adam sent a moonslice at him; I jumped in front of it....
Jael:You what!?
Jacquelyn:I wasn’t thinking. All I knew was I was scared of this one incident turning into something worse. That night is still a bit of a blur; I remember an intense pain and then just laying on the sand bleeding. When I woke your father was over right over me crying. It might’ve been the first time I saw him scared and genuinely apologetic. He promised me that night things were going to be different; he’d try harder to do the right thing.
Jael:.......*looks away*
Jacquelyn:Hate and anger are dangerous. You might just get you or someone you care about hurt if it goes unchecked. You have the disadvantage of it most likely being both. Hating this girl is fine for now but don’t let it linger. Let it fade away with time. *holds her close*
Jael:Did dad’s hate fade away?
Jacquelyn:Sort of; he stopped focusing on the hate left by his past and found a way to fill it with love. Sienna eased his mind but I think you really filled it with the love he needed to have. *smiles* You saved him, not me.
Jael:.....I’m gonna just stand here for a moment okay? I’ll come back over when the train arrives.
Jacquelyn:Take the time you need. *kisses her cheek and leaves*
Adam:She okay?
Jacquelyn:Yeah, just processing everything. Sorry about that Yang.
Yang:It’s no problem. I should be the one apologizing; can’t help but feel like it’s my fault a bit. If I knew about her sooner then-
Adam:Geez, apologizing to me feels weird. Just watch my back when things get heavy. *smirks* I’ll watch your arm.
Everyone:.........
Yang:......*rubs nose*
Adam:........*smacks lips*
Both of them end up in a fit of laughter suddenly. To everyone’s surprise they even fist bump and causes everyone else to slowly begin to laugh as well. To any stranger you would think everyone here were old friends since birth. Only they would know the truth about the effort it took to get there. Even Jael admired the sight.
Jael:(Is this what happens when hate heals? If dad could do it then there’s hope for me. I just need time right?)
“9:45 train to north western Anima arrived. 10:00 train to Vacou will arrive soon.”
Ren:Well...that’s me. Time to get healed.
Mercury:We’ll miss you guys.
Emerald:Don’t you dare get lazy out there. We want to meet up with all of you.
Nora:Hopefully we’ll be done before you guys are. Don’t rush your healing for me ok?
Ren:As long as you don’t rush so I don’t have to join. *kisses her* Tenzen?
Tenzen:Yeah?
Ren:Be ready for me to out dance you when I get back. *winks*
Tenzen:*smiles* I accept your challenge! I’ll show the student has surpassed the teacher.
The unlikely trio gets on the train as they wave goodbye. Even with a nice goodbye however, hearts start to get heavy. No turning back now.
Nora:You okay Tenzen?
Tenzen:I’m okay *takes a breath* being here hurts more than I thought to see him go.
“10:00 train to Vacou arrived”
Tenzen:Now I gotta watch you.
Blake:Already!? It’s ahead of schedule.
Nora:*hugs him tightly* No matter what happens, never lose that smile of yours. Light up people’s world and live happily.
Tenzen:Bright and sudden like a lightning bolt; I promise.
Adam:Neo, you’re second in command. I know you and Ilia can handle things.
Weiss:Hey, you got that promotion you wanted.
Neo:By default but I’ll take it. You leave the organization in good hands.
Ilia:I’ll watch her....
Blake:Same....
Frost family:*stares at him*
Adam:*opens his arms* Don’t just stand there you three.
Frost family:*hugs him* Be safe, we love you.
Tai:Will you miss me this time?
Raven:I missed you last time. *kisses him* Don’t worry, I’ll be back in your arms before you know it.
Jaune:*hugging Ruby and Yang* It was seeing you two again*
Ruby:Next time it’ll be for good. You have my word. My house still needs to be rebuilt. I’ll give you two a moment. *dashes off*
Yang:.....I really wanted to wear that wedding ring longer.
Jaune:Next time you will. Until then...*tears up* it’ll be waiting for you just like me. Anything you want me to tell Yujin?
Yang:I don’t know if there’s anything more for me to say. If she never forgives me then......hehe *covers her face* damn it, please let her forgive me. *weeping* I don’t think I can live knowing she won’t!
She breaks down and drops to her knees; not caring who sees. The sight of it is almost too much for Jaune to take as she helps her back on her feet and guides her to the train door. From there Ruby takes her and everyone on it stares back at their family as the doors finally close. The whistle finally blows to solidify the journey, then it starts to move. Slowly at first but surly getting faster. Every so, everybody just keeps staring as the distance grows. The moment nobody wanted is here; the moment of uncertainty.
“STOP THE TRAIN!!!!”
Yang’s head jerked up in shocked. That shout was extremely close; too close to be possible. The train was moving near high speed by now. Already the station looked like a speck to them, but she definitely knew what she heard.
Yang:Please tell me someone else heard that?
Nora*halfway out a window* This is something you might want to see Yang.
Yang:*looks* Y....Yujin!?
Several feet behind them was none other than her daughter driving right beside the train at full speed. She glances over at her mother with an awkward smile and wave.
Yang:YUJIN!?
Adam:Never a dull moment.
Ruby:How’d she gey the mustang off of Patch?
Yujin:Tell the conductor to stop! I’m almost out of ga- *car slowing down* damnit.....!
Yang:Shit! Uhhh is there an emergency break or.... Oh! Make a portal mom!
Raven:That car is still moving way too fast. Last thing we need is mustang flying in here. If she got out the car then-
Nora:Would a boy flying through here be a problem? *smiling*
Once again they look out the window but the mustang is empty. A trail of orange lightning can be seen barely keeping up with the caboose of the train.
Raven:*grabs sword* I’ll try...
Yang:*walks to the back.*
Yujin:Whenever I need help you never hesitate.
Tenzen:*carrying her* By now you should know I have your back; even if your ideas are completely insane.
Yujin:*stretching*If I can just reach the back....I almost..... *grabs it* Ha!
Tenzen:*tosses her up* Good luck!
Yujin:Huh? Take my hand!
Tenzen:Nah, this is your goodbye. Tell my mom she doesn’t have to worry about me. *stops running*
She can see him wave as the distance increases. Her heart starts to race as her palms get sweaty. Only thing standing in her way now is a few doors. All she has to do is open it.
Yujin:*grabs handle* Here goes noth-
Yang:*Opens door*..........
Yujin:....Have you been crying? Your eyes are puffy.
Yang:Your eyes are puffy too......
Yujin:It’s been a rough morning. *pulls out journal* I guess you were wrong about me not getting anything from you; we cry the same. *shaking* You were also wrong about you being a terrible mom. I’m a sorry excuse for a daughter.
Yang:Yujin I-
Yujin:No, I need to get this off my chest. I...*sniff* I punched you in the face, screamed and shunned you. I said I didn’t care if you came back alive. *crying* How could I say that to you!? I am so, so sorry mom. I am ashamed and disgusted with myself for what I did. All you did was try your best to be around ever since you came back and I-
Before she could chastise herself further, Yang reached out and pulled her in close. Whatever Yujin was going to say turned into pure noise as she began to wailing into her mother’s shirt. All Yang could do his hold her tighter she started to cry again too.
Yujin:I can’t believe I wasted the entire week being upset; now I don’t know when I’ll see you again.
Yang:It’s alright, this moment right is enough. It’s more than enough. *lets go* I want you to know that I’m not mad at you in the slightest you got that? Life has a way of bringing people together when it matters most; I’ll come back to you and your father I swear. *wiping Yujin’s tears*
Yujin:We’ll be waiting for you; no matter how long it takes. Mom I...I love you, even when I thought I didn’t. Being your daughter is something I’ll never regret.
Yang:I love you too and I’m so proud of you as well. You’re growing up just fine. *smiles* Promise me something; promise me that you’ll continue to be the best version of yourself you can be and show everyone at Beacon what you’re made of.
Yujin:*smiles* Ha, with this journal I’ll make sure everyone knows what a Xiao Long can do.
Raven:*walks in with everyone, including Tenzen* Sorry to cut this short but people are starting to see we have stowaways.
Yujin:How’d you get on Tenzen?
Tenzen:*winded* We overshot a portal your grandma made. Please don’t make me run that fast again.
Nora:At least you got to see me one more time. *hugs him*
Raven:*makes a portal* this leads right to Jaune. Stay safe kiddos.
Yujin and Tenzen:See you later everyone!
Everyone:See you when we see you.
Tenzen:*jumps through portal*
Yujin:Later “Hunter extraordinaire.”
Yang:Later Sundrop.....
As she walks up to the portal, Yujin stops for a moment and turns back around. Without warning she swaps her blue bandanna with Yang’s purple one.
Yujin:For luck, better have it when you get back. *jumps through portal*
Jaune:*waiting*
Yang:*smiling* Deal.....
Yujin:*hops out* Hey dad! Saw mom and I sort of lost the car in a ditch. Sorry for not telling y- *gets hugged*
Jaune:You’re such a handful you know that?
Yang:I think it’s genetics. Can we go home now? I’m super exhausted.
Tenzen:At this rate you’ll be spent before the exams begin.
Yujin:About that, *looks at journal* I think I’m gonna hold off on those until next year. I got some reading to do.
Sienna:*ears twitching* You hear that?
Jael:As clear as day.
Sienna:Guess that means you’ll be a year ahead.
Jael:Nah, *holds chest* I think....I want a breather and spend time at home a bit longer. Is that okay?
Jacquelyn:When would I say no to spending more time with my kids? So, you gonna say hi to her?
The idea was enticing and not a bad one. Before she agreeded to it though her eyes glanced back over at Yujin; specifically what was around her neck. A pendent in the shape of a sun. Not much different than the star pendant Adam gave her as a late birthday present during the festival. The only reason was it was late was because during her actual birthday he was already off to check in on Yujin like usual. But why would he give her one too? Unless both of them have close or the same-
Jael:.....*walks away* I’ll pass, not up to it. Maybe next time.
Jacquelyn:Oh uhhh okay? Let’s get going then.
Jael:Fine by me; not a fan of this place anyways.
Yujin:Hmm? Is that Adam’s family? Maybe I should say- *tugged away by Tenzen* hey! What ar you doing?
Tenzen:You smell like you haven’t showered in in a day, you’re in a tank top and pj pants with no shoes, and they probably need time to themselves. Not the best time for first impressions. Go home dork; I’ll call you later.
Yujin:You have a point I guess. Thanks for everything Tenzen; you are a real life saver.
Tai wraps his arm around the girl and walk off with Jaune. Neo finally decides to make her leave with Ilia and Blake as they discuss their next move. Tenzen however takes a minute just to stare at this mysterious girl with goat horns as she continues to walk away. He couldn’t put his finger on it but there was something about her aura that was just.....intense.
Tenzen: “A life saver” huh? I hope it wasn’t that serious. *walks home*

Shen's Last Letter / Yang's Room / Chapter 8: Yang
Transcript:
[I have long wished for you to surpass me. I have always wished you would go to places I was never able to go.
I couldn't open the floodgate. And I couldn't stay in this world either.
What I saw was a confused world created by Yang, the former me. Yes. I too watched the same world you've seen, as somebody else's problem.
I didn't know who I was until Ein told me. I didn't know what I've done until Guattari told me. And I tried to understand the former me.
Like what kind of desires of mine created this world. Like what kind of wishes of mine made this world like this.
However, I was hardly able to understand the former me. But there were still some things I was able to understand. That this world exists for Juice and for my lost past.
The former me is the one that made Juice like that. I felt so sorry for Juice and was dismayed. But I couldn't provide her anything.
The former me is also the one that left the Shadows of the Milky Fuel Station's female machines that way. But I couldn't understand any of their appeals. I was just an incompetent machine who can do nothing.
I wondered if there was anything I could do. I thought about my role. I thought about what I am to the world.
I knew one thing for sure. That I haven't accomplished what is required of me in this world yet. And I knew somehow the floodgate must not be opened without it being accomplished. But I don't know what I must accomplish.
No, it doesn't matter if I accomplish it or not. The truth is that there is still something to be accomplished in this world, and this world is waiting for it to be accomplished.
It is likely that you are the one that will accomplish it in the end. I only exist to stop the gap. This conclusion I reached shocked me.
Why you? Why not me? But the devastating truth is, there's no possibility left in me. I am just an empty shell. There is no violence left in me. I'm just a puppet that has a useless ego level and power. A puppet that has no desire but to be stupidly honest. I had to accept this truth.
And that was not all. I am a hindrance to you. You won't be able to accomplish what you are capable of as long as I exist. I am putting a lid on the possibility this world has. I am the unwanted and obstructive lid itself. I should not stay in this world any longer. And if so, there is only one thing I can do. There is just one thing left for me to do for this world.
Please forgive me for testing you. I have no intention of forcing something on you anymore. I'm not qualified to do that.
You probably don't know what this world wants either. But there is one thing certain. If you're reading this, all the possibilities are in your hands right now. All the things the world wants can be found in the possibilities you are capable of choosing. And no matter what you choose, it will be the best choice. I believe so. This world is your world.
I have entrusted the to the floodgate passage to Juice. She should decide what to do with that key.]

Ein / Chapter 8: Yang (after opening the locked box)
Transcript:
[Ein: i didn't guide Yang. Yang acted first and I acted after him.
I never wanted to become Yang. Because I didn't know who Yang was.
I had to see the results. But seeing the results won't change me in any way.
And I don't want to delete myself either. I... I... probably don't exist from the start.]

Hajime / Chapter 8: Yang
Transcript:
[So you were a dangerous machine after all.
...I have nothing more to tell you. The things I know are worthless to you now.
You don't care how the rust is gradually spreading nor how the color of the sewage is a little different every day, do you?
It's okay. You don't have to say anything. I understand that you're different...]

Ein / Chapter 8: Yang
Transcript:
[What were you expecting to find here?
Did you think everybody was living in a world they didn't wish to be, suffering and suppressed by Yang the powerful ruler?
Did you think everyone will gain freedom and this world will become a happy world if you eliminate Yang? That's ridiculous.
You won't find that anywhere. Everybody is just living in a world they wished to be.
This is the world they desired. Even in its stupidity, subservience, and anguish.
We're the accomplices of our world. No one can escape from this fact. And you are one of us too.]

Tsuru / Chapter 8: Yang
Transcript:
[Yang was alone. He was simply alone. He probably thought of others as empty cans.
It's frightening to be surrounded by only empty cans. Imagine how you'd feel if you see me as an empty can.
If Miya looked like n empty can to me, it'll make me want to die.]
