Akane's Lament

Deidrex came up to me.

"I told Jack everything. He understands this and he'll do the best he can to stop the heartless. I think we are done here." Deidrex said as she made a portal to the Castle.

"Deidrex, you can go on ahead. Take Gamex with you." I said, throwing the unconcious skeleton nobody to Deidrex.

"You aren't coming?" She asked.

"Halloween Town is not only my home, but it's a favorite to mostly everyone, whether it's a somebody or a nobody. I will not leave this world until it's safe from lesser nobodies and heartless. Please tell the leader my decision." I explained. Deidrex waved and went back to the castle. I walked sadly to the center of town. Floyde was playing Blackjack with a few zombies. I sighed, going to a graveyard.

"Who am I kidding?" I sulked, sitting down at a gravestone, "In Halloween Town and other worlds, I'm the best of the best! But when it comes to the other noboides, I always fail..." I sewn my hand back together, then had the urge to express and sing about what I feel.

There are those who'd deny, at what I do I am the best
For my talents are renowned far and wide
When it comes to surprises in the moonlit night
I excel without ever even trying

When it comes to humans
I can make every grown man shriek
But with nobodies, they would beat me up
And then leave me on the street

Year after year, it's the same routine
And I grow so weary of painful screams
And I, Akane, the Boogie Girl
Have grown so tired of the same old thing

I got up from the tomb stone and started to sway sadly. Little did I know that someone was video taping the whole thing.

Oh, somewhere deep inside of these bones
An emptiness begins to grow
There's something out there, far from my home
A longing that I've never known

I looked at the moon with my black button eyes. I touched my chest where my heart should be. All I felt was emptiness.

I'm a master of the night, and a demon of light
And I'll scare you right out of your pants
To a guy in Kentucky, I'm Missus Unlucky
And I'm known throughout England and France

I unsewn my neck and held my head with my hand. Some bugs crawled out from my neck. I ignored it.

And since I am dead, I can take off my head
To recite Shakespearean quotations
No animal or man can scream like I can
With the fury of my recitations

But who here would ever understand
That Akane, now the eigth in command
Would tire of her crown, if they only understood
She'd give it all up if she only could

I sewn my head back together, then walked back to the center of town.

Oh, there's an empty place in my bones
That calls out for something unknown
The fame and praise come year after year
Does nothing for these empty tears

Someone please continue...

~Akane
