A Long Night For The Weary
#9
Minutes later, the young group of ghetto style secondaries decided to take their business somewhere else. The rapper girl wanted Jacket to come but he refused the offer since it was getting late for him and he wanted some goddamn sleep from this dreadful night. Jacket went back to the restaurant but realized Koal was nowhere to be seen. He looked all over the place for him before he decided to head out. His friend was nowhere to be seen which Jacket shrugged off and wondered if he left on his own without telling him. The letterman wearing prime decided to walk back outside to the hovercar. He opened the driver's side door and got into the vehicle. Jacket started up the car and shifted the gear shift into drive than drove off without Koal.

He drove down the lonely street very late at night with barely any cars driving or pedestrians on the sidewalk. The radio was still tuned to his favorite channel and his feelings about Luci's death wasn't completely shaken off yet. He hoped to Omni that the powerful being would bring her back into the Omniverse and not get bored of her. Where Jacket was heading, it was a secluded area to get rid of the car. This vehicle was evidence of the crime they caused, and he wanted to cover up his trace, so he wouldn't be wanted by the powerful Empire. It only took about twenty minutes to get across of the Tier to his destination. The place he arrived at was an abandoned three-story office building with an empty parking deck.

Jacket drove the car passed the empty toll booth that had the boom barrier set down to block off access. The prime didn't care about it and ran the bar over, causing it to break off. He drove up to the second floor of the parking deck than parked the car in the middle of the place. Jacket got out of the hovercar and pulled out his Omnilium from his pocket. His eyes darted back and forth even with his head turning quickly to make sure no one was watching him. The rainbow orb began to glow brighter from Jacket's thoughts on what he wanted to summon. Sparkles and glimmering sprites gather close to the ground in front of him from the omnilium and took the form of a red Jerrycan filled with gasoline. He picked up the Jerrycan and shook it to feel the flammable fuel slosh inside the can.

His attention focused back on the elegant hovercar he was about to destroy. The troublemaker prime walked up to the driver's side of the car. With the nozzle protruding from the can, Jacket moved the gas can with both of his arms and hands over his head. Gasoline began pouring onto the car, making splattering noises of liquid impacting the solid surface of the vehicle. It took about two laps around the car to make sure it was doused with gas. Jacket sat the half-emptied Jerrycan next to the hovercar than used his omnilium to summon a box of matches. The same summoning process happened again except this time taking place onto his palm. A box of matches laid in his hand and he grabbed one out of the box.

Jacket lit the match from the box's surface and watched the tiny flame flickered. His attention was back onto the car in front of him. From a quick flick, Jacket launched the lit match to the car's general direction. He made a mad dash to get away from the radius of what was about to be an explosion. The vehicle engulfed in a giant fiery scene. A combustion reaction happened to the car, causing it to make a loud boom to be heard. Parts of the vehicle flew off from the explosive car and scattered everywhere. Jacket hurried with his omnilium to summon his DeLorean which soon took existence in front of him. He swung the driver's gull wing door open in a hurried manner than shut the door behind him. The 80s sports car started up and drove away at a quick speed with Jacket drifting from the entrance of the parking deck than disappearing into the night.

Jacket opened the door to his apartment and took a deep sigh that he was finally home. He turned on the lights to his living space and headed straight to the bathroom to take a shower. Bath time only lasted about almost thirteen minutes due to Jacket trying to get a hold of his sorrowful emotions. After finishing his shower, the water was turned off and he dried himself off while standing in the cubicle. He wrapped the white towel around his waist to cover up his lower half past his waist down. Jacket turned to the sink and his medicine cabinet that had a mirror. The surface of the mirror was fogged up from the hot water he had turned on to bath himself with earlier. He wiped the mirror off to see his reflection but after wiping it down, there was a haunting image that reflected someone else. A hallucination of his old girlfriend that Luci took form when she was alive stared back at him with tears streaming down her face.

"You failed to save me from death again. What kind of a hero are you? Why can't you just die like you should've long ago!" his broken girlfriend shouted out that last sentence to Jacket in a desperate manner which made the prime had shivers down his spine.

"Babe, I-" Jacket uttered but was immediately cut off by the hallucination.

"Just shut up goddammit! Your nothing but a lunatic killing selfish boyfriend! You worried about your own life and trying to survive the night. I hope you die from your heartless actions," the reflection of his dead girlfriend said to him with a disgusted attitude.

Jacket's right hand curled up into a fist with it gripping from frustration and anger building up. Suddenly, he couldn't hold his emotions anymore.

"IT WAS DOOM'S FUCKING FAULT!!!!!!!!" Jacket screamed in anger with an outburst and punched the mirror so hard, it cracked all over.

Multiple of his reflections stared back at him due to the cracks that were made. Tears start forming from his eyes and began to roll down his cheeks with him chocking up with sadness and fury. Shortly after, he recollected his thoughts and finally got into bed while he wore just boxers. Sleep fell upon him with no more thinking about this night.
