A Dream: Chp 19 Heartaches
#19 of A Dream
A Furry's Dream: Chp 19 Heartaches.
Folvos's POV
I fall out of the portal into a heap and yelp slightly as I feel my head hit the ground a bit harder than I'd have liked. I open my eyes and see the sun shining down onto a lush green opening in a forest. Towards the direction of the opening I see Rose and Mina standing around looking to at the beautiful scenery.
"We made it..." I say as if I'm trying to convince myself its true, "We actually did it." I stand up shakily and walk over to Rose and Mina before laughing for no apparent reason. "We did it..." Mina trails off. I look over to Rose before walking to her and putting my hand onto her shoulder. I see her take a step away and push my hand off to which I look at her and tilt my head.
"Is everything ok?" I ask quietly to her, I stand there silently looking over her before I move over and go to wrap my arms around her quietly. Rose spins around and bats my hands away before walking a bit away. I turn to Mina and shrug before following Rose.
"Rose! Wait up! What's wrong?"
"Folvos just stop." Rose stops dead facing away from me.
"Rose?" I inquire...
"I SAID STOP! YOU ARE SO DAMN CLINGY, ALWAYS DEMANDING ATTENTION AND YOU ARE SO SENSITIVE! I JUST..." Rose pauses and takes a deep breath before continuing in a slower, more down to earth voice. "Yes I appreciate you breaking me out of that prison however I don't wish to date you anymore. That night with the other person, I didn't want you to find out but it felt so freeing to not have to wait for you to feel ready..."
"I... You..? What..?" My brain tries to make sense of it all. Slowly I piece it together what is happening and I feel pieces of myself that were barely holding together fall away.
"R-Rose?" I feel my vision start to tear up... "R-R-Rose?" I take a step towards her and I go to wrap her in a hug not really understanding what is happening. Suddenly she spins on her heels and slaps me hard across my cheek. I spin slightly and the shock knocks me back onto my butt, my armour making a subtle 'thunk' as it hits the ground.
"That means no more hugs!" she says agitated at me. The slap must've been loud because the next thing I know Mina is beside me asking if I'm alright. She looks up to Rose and hugs me softly as I start to tear up.
"What did you do to him?" Mina questions Rose.
"I gave him something he's deserved for a long time." She replies in a slightly menacing tone, "He's so clingy and he's just so... he demands a lot of attention."
"And that gives you the right to slap him?!?"
"Like I said, it's been a long time coming."
"You... You h-h-honestly think that?" I manage to choke out
"YES!" Rose all but shouts, "For one of the 'smart' kids you honestly don't get a lot do you?!" Rose starts to walk towards me and I see Mina tense up slightly preparing for a fight.
"Honestly, I did more than kiss some people while you were off doing whatever." Is all Rose states before walking off towards what sounds like a town. And like that it is if someone flicked a switch, it starts to sink in, my world starts falling. However you want to put it I was shattered. I started wailing and Mina just sat there hugging me whispering sweet nothings into my ear. At one point she slipped something into my pocket and said something about seeing her again. After what seemed like half an hour Polybius came through the portal.
"Seems they were not androids but instead hum... What's up with Folvos?" he asks Mina as he walks over. Mina start talking but I cut her off to tell him what happened.
"R-Rose... She...She slapped me. She told me how she felt about kissing the other person. Then she... She... She..." A feral growl leaves my lips as I comprehend the last part. "She... She... THE BITCH!" I Growl causing Mina to back off a little. "Folvos don't do anything you'll regret..." Mina starts but I cut her off with a howl.
"Oh... I won't..." With that I take off in some random direction. Free at last I start to run through the trees, running along the branches and leaving deep claw marks in the trunks growling. I come to a clearing and see a deer in the centre eating some grass peacefully... that's what I would see if I wasn't in this mood, all I see currently is something to let out my anger on.
I walk through the door to my house attempting to be quiet but my dad must've heard me because next thing I know he's shouting at me from the Lounge room.
"Where have you been?! Don't give me any bullshit or you won't be leaving that room for the week."
"I... I was out with friends..." I reply grateful that he couldn't see the animal blood covering my lower half and mussel. He just starts laughing at me before giving me some speech about me not having friends. I tune him out and walk up to my room before falling onto my bed, something in my pocket poking my side. I take it out and see a note crumpled around a box of sorts, I read the note.
'For Folvos Only,
Hello Folvos, Polybius made this device for you, should you want to come visit us. I hope that you visit us some time in Orugona as I feel like we could become great friends. There is the catch however that You may not be able to get back to wherever you've come from so warn your friends and parents before you leave as Polybius can take up to a week to re-create one of these.
From Mina & Polybius'
'I'm sorry about what happened with Rose' is hastily scribbled onto the bottom of the beautifully crafted note. I sigh and rest my head against the headboard of my bed. I take the back of the note and draw a six by six grid. On the bottom right grid I draw a cube similar to the one I got from Polybius and Mina. I take a minute staring at the first box but after deciding he was bad enough I cross it off. 'It could be worse...' I think before I sink down and go to sleep. "Tomorrow is a new day..." I say softly to myself.

[King_Pin]: Thanks to that stupid cat and the decoy we now have the co-ordinates to his home planet.
[CMDRJonson]: Sir, What does that have to do with me and my men?
[King_Pin]: Simple, once we are able to reconstruct the portal between our worlds you are going in.
[CMDRJonson]: Sir, wouldn't that be suicide, we saw what they are capable of.
[King_Pin]: That is irrelevant, we have the footage, and they are animals, we will exterminate them and take their planet as our own.
[CMDRJonson]: Sir, we shall require better training.
[King_Pin]: WELL ORGANISE IT! I WANT EVERYTHING READY BY THE END OF SIX WEEKS!!
