A small DriftCells + Knight as family fanfiction because they took my brain a bit too long.

As requested by Drifter, Beheaded and Knight took him back to his homeland.

To be more precise, "a part" of him.

With the help of his two companions, Drifter had destroyed The Judgement, and the Immortal Cells, which had brought the plague that had always destroyed his species, were no more.

But they were too late.

Drifter's body could no longer bear the damage it had caused, and he coughed up more and more blood. His legs became weak, and he knew he could no longer continue his journey.

Then, he sat there, with Beheaded and Knight by his side, and breathed his last breaths without fear or worry.

And, Beheaded had fulfilled his promise to Drifter.

“Let me stay with you a little longer. And when I can’t anymore, help me get home.”

A sweet blow. And that’s what they needed.

...

They had buried part of Drifter under a tree beside a river. Beheaded thought that the clean water and beautiful scenery suited him well.

"Um… do you think he would like flowers?"

Beheaded asked Knight, ignoring the fact that the other would never answer.

"Like… if there was just a grave here, it would be a bit… mournful? So what do you think about, I don't know, planting some flowers here?"

Knight's eyes were lifeless as he looked at Beheaded. Having been together for so long, Beheaded must have known that Knight had no mind to decide what was mournful or beautiful. Beheaded had always talked to himself when he was with the two of them, but just this once-

Knight saw Drifter's smile again, as his eyes widened and closed with joy as he took the white flower Knight offered him with both hands.

Knight first grabbed Beheaded's pant leg, which had always belonged to Drifter, and nodded.

Beheaded's flame flared slightly, and then golden flashes flashed across it. The light seemed to glow, swaying gently.

"Well, let's ask the people around here if they have any seeds."

By the time they finished their work and planted the seeds by the tree where Drifter was resting, the sun was setting over the distant mountains, turning the blues of the sky into the oranges, then pinks of the end of the day.

The silence that had been between them all day was suddenly interrupted by another monologue from Beheaded.

“Now he has time to wait and see what these flowers will look like, huh?”

The Knight remained silent as they always were, watching Beheaded kneel gently by the tree, muttering in a way they probably never did see before.

“Now you have all the time in the world, let me take you further.”

But then, Beheaded had always done that. Like when he had always leaned over to ask, and wiped the blood from Drifter’s face.

Drifter had smiled more gently than ever to reassure them, and when Beheaded had grumbled about how he had always accepted everything that happened to him, Drifter had listened as he held Knight close to him, as if seeking a warmth that was not there.

Then, on the rare days when Drifter's throat felt better thanks to the medicine Beheaded had given him, he had hummed a tune, a lullaby of his kind, lulling both Knight and Beheaded into a sleep they did not need.

And then, Knight had not felt hollow at all in those moments, as if Drifter's warmth and Beheaded's emotions had slowly embraced them, slowly and gently.

Those smiles and voices had always been there, even when he could no longer speak, when his body gradually lost consciousness as the cave collapsed, but he still had enough strength to signal the two to stay close to him.

"Thank you for being my family"

"Alright kid, let's go."

Knight woke up when he heard Beheaded speak. It seemed like they had been lost in their memories for so long that the Milky Way had replaced the sunlight with its own stars.

The two undead stood there, silently looking down at the tree, as Beheaded fondled the gem on Drifter's cloak, and then he walked away, passing Knight.

"Kid, let's go, it's getting dark."

But this time, Knight didn't do as Beheaded said, nor did he say anything more. The little bug stood there, staring at the cold grave, and no longer looking at a grave.

Then they screamed.

A piercing scream, a scream unknown to this world, a scream that seemed to have been accumulating for a long time, but when listened to closely, it sounded like the cry of a child losing something dear for the first time.

Knight's screams were intermittent, as if they needed to catch their breath, then they broke out again, each time smaller than the last, until Knight was panting, as if they had no more strength to cry.

Beheaded was silent for a long time, then came to Knight's side, sat down and hugged them.

A strange, awkward hug as if this person was still not used to holding a child, but still, there was a familiar body scent that made Knight try to cling to it.

The sound of flowing water as the river water hit the rocks was still steady beside them. In the sky, the Milky Way still shone, gently illuminating the gentle ground. A breeze blew by, carrying the scent of grass and trees of a place familiar to those who had drifted away for a long time.
