Chapter 2: I blame myself

Yetshi @McTaylis, Carl, Kelsey and Bon-Bon made their way back to the space station they called home, the owner’s SoulGem, a few shards and four broken hearts in hand. The station was huge and chrome in color, it was in the shape of a star with all five hands forming at the center to form a point. As Yetshi landed his Sun cutter he noticed Randon was walking into the landing docks, he assumed he saw the ship coming on the radar in the planetarium. As he opened the door to let everyone out, Randon asked “Did everything go okay, where’s Sebastian?”
“Th-the mission was a failure,” Yetshi said, trying to hold back the large tears that were forming in his eyes.
“What’s wrong, what happened?” Randon asked
Yetshi pulled something out his pocket, it was small and shiny and orange, lime green and baby blue in color. As he examined the object, Carl and Bon-Bon walked past them, it took him a few seconds to realize what it was. As Randon realized why Sebastian was gone, he felt his heart sink and his irises shrunk in terror. His breathing rate increased and felt his legs weaken. Behind him a group was walking towards the landing docks, one of them was taller then Yetshi, Randon and Kelsey, while the others were the same height or shorter then Yetshi. “Is this a bad time?” asked one of them, Brett Umber24.
“Something came up during the mission…” Kelsey said, failing to hold back tears.
Her friends all braced themselves for what was about to be said, they all had a feeling of what happened but didn’t want to think about the outcome.
“Yetshi, we need to tell the Virtues” Randon said becoming more destressed
Yetshi knew Randon would get in serious trouble even if he wasn’t on the mission, the Godly Virtues would never just ignore the person who assigned the mission. He nodded hesitantly and everyone walked to the library to find Randon’s mother, Jimisha L. Hosana [Goddess of Humility].

As they walked into the brown walled library, they were greeted by a woman with long curly black hair, she even had a curl covering her left eyebrow “Hey, Yetshi. Looking for Jimisha?” she asked in a soft almost whispering voice
“Oui, Elizabeth, is she in here?” he asked her
“She went to the basketball court, Adam had a game.” she responded back
“Merci.” he said to Elizabeth as the group walked out and to the basketball court.
As they walked down the hall, Yetshi and Kelsey finally told their friends how Sebastian met his end. They stopped walking as they felt their bodies be filled with painful sorrow, some of them couldn’t even try to hold back tears or hide the sadness they felt.
“Please tell me the bastard paid for this…” Their tallest friend, Kevin A. @Demron1992, asked with sadness and anger in his voice. He was wearing a white button up lab coat with his muscular chest showing a little and black shorts. He never liked wearing shoes so he always walked around barefoot.
“I’m leaving that up to the Godly Virtues to decide…” Yetshi answered, wiping the tears off his cheeks.
They went back to walking and made it to the basketball court. When they entered, they saw Adam and a bunch of kids, around his age, running up and down the court and posters made and signed by Yash aligning the walls as the faded yellow lights shined on them. As they looked around, they saw Jimisha sitting on the bleachers to their left, she was wearing a green fairy-like dress; it had huge straps that resembled wings that stood on their own and a ruffled glittering material that made up the lower end of the skirt. “Hi honey” she said to her son, Randon “Is everything okay”
“Th-there’s been a death… And I think its my fault” he responded hesitantly
“What happened?!” she asked becoming frightened
“I’ll tell you once the meeting starts.” Yetshi said to his superior
Jimisha stood up and walked out of the courtroom and the others walked out with her and down the hall. Along the way, Yetshi informed his friends that it would be better if they went to the science lab to recompse themselves. They complied with their friend's suggestion and went there. Jimisha, Randon and Yetshi stopped in front of a large platinum door with gold details all over it, it also had a small screen tablet to the left of it. Jimisha typed in a code that seemed nonsensical to Randon and alerted her siblings and cousins that an urgent meeting is about to take place, and the three of them walked through the door. Inside was a huge judge-like courtroom, it was big enough to fit Jimisha’s 10 commandments and had a tone of empty seats. Randon thought it was bigger than his baseball field and pool room combined.

Just then, 13 doors opened. Tall men and women, similar or taller then Jimisha, walked inside. None of them wore similar clothes, they each had on greek-like robes and gowns or wore suits and dresses “Jimi you called us all here, what’s wrong?” asked her oldest cousin, Massacre Lucifer [God of Wrath]. He was much taller then Jimisha, he had long curled horns that stuck out of the top of his head and bull-like legs. His thighs were covered in a misty darkness that allowed others to see right through him.
“One of my Star soldiers have fell” She said to him
One of her younger sisters, Mickayla G. Hosana [Goddess of Purity] covered her mouth with great shock while one of her little brothers, Ashford G. Hosana [God of Diligence] looked down, with a sorrow expression on his face. “What happened, was it an accident?” asked another one of Jimisha’s cousins, Cynthia S. Lucifer [Goddess of Sloth]
Yetshi stood forward to tell them all what happened. He spared no details and explained that even though Randon sent them, he should not be punished for this. “Randon,” said one of Randon’s uncles, Bacchus Lucifer [God of Gluttony] “Thank you for telling someone, but you know better. You should have told your mom”
“I know.” he said in return “I’m already beating myself up for this…”
Yetshi presented the Gods with the SoulGem of the owner. As they all examined it, none of them recognized the gem, it looked like a cluster with no form and had multiple sharp parts sticking off of it. It shimmered with vibrant colors as the lights in the room hit it. “My friends want to know what you all want to do with him?” said Yetshi as he placed the SoulGem on the table in front of everyone
“What should we do?” asked Mack Hosana [God of Temperance] as he looked at everyone else
Another god, Stoic Lucifer [God of Pride], answered “first thought that came to mind was shatter”
“I feel like that’s too much dear brother” said Mercedes Lucifer [Goddess of Greed] “I do believe this one needs to pay, but death is a little too much”
“I’m in agreement with Mercedes,” said Jimisha’s older sister Vicky Hosana [Goddess of Kindness] “Death is too harsh.”
As everyone continued to think about what to do, Alisha O. Hosana [Goddess of Forgiveness] had the idea to take the Owner under custody as a punishment. “That could work, but can your Commandments handle this?” asked Jimisha
“We’ll handle it, if it doesn’t then we’ll talk about a new punishment” she answered her big sister
“Alright does that settle this?” asked Seamus Lucifer [God of Lust]
Miquain T. Hosana [God of Charity] and Vivian Lucifer [Goddess of Envy] nodded to Seamus, giving him the second notion “Very well: Alisha, you are now under custody of-” Massacre stopped his sentence short and realized the Owner doesn’t have a real name, so without much thought he continued and said “The Magic Kid”
Almost everyone was confused but brushed it off and nodded as the final vote. Alisha picked up the Magic Kid’s SoulGem and everyone left the room by walking through the doors they entered.

Jimisha turned to Yetshi and asked “Yetshi was there anything else out of place on earth?”
“Non madame” he answered
Jimisha, Yetshi and Randon left the room with the lights turning off on their way out. Randon still felt an unhealthy amount of weight on his shoulders. He felt as if he should've been punished more harshly or if he didn’t send Yetshi’s team Sebastian would still be alive. Jimisha continued back to the basketball court for Adam’s game while Yetshi stopped to talk to Randon. “Randon, I know you think you should be in trouble or punished, but this was not your fault.” He said to his student “This was a result of my negligence”
Randon, without saying a word, commended his teacher’s words of encouragement but he still felt like it was his fault. Yetshi knew Randon couldn’t cry, but he still sensed the sorrow feelings he had deep down. Not wanting him to feel more guilty than he already does, Yetshi dismissed Randon and allowed him to go wherever he needed to take his mind off of the meeting. Randon made his way to the planetarium and was, once again, greeted by his friends. Cameron and Sharisa could quickly tell their friend was not happy and knew he didn’t want to talk. Nate, however, didn't much care for his friend's emotion and asked questions regarding the meeting and the mission. “Nate, stop” he asked him with a gloomy expression on his face.
I guess things didn’t go according to plan… Kalaiya thought to herself as Randon sat down at a table opposite to the control panel of the supercomputer in the middle of the room. “Yetshi said things went downhill. That’s all I want to say” Randon said
“Alright then, take it easy for now” Sharisa said, turning off the radar on the computer. “I hope this isn’t a sign for things to come…”
