Plankton Goodbye Everyone Novels & Stories

Memories from the past flashed through Vivian's mind, and tears slid down her cheeks. Vivian suddenly woke up. The treatment was over.

I gave the soup on the table an icy look and met his eyes. "Seafood allergy. Did you forget about the last time I had a reaction and we rushed to the ER?" Lucas looked away, a flicker of remorse crossing his face. That ER visit was on him, after all.

To make things right, my parents brought home all sorts of fancy stuff from the Silver Moon Market—moonstone earrings, a silver fang dagger, Moonshadow flower perfume... I ended up giving all those treasures to the few close friends I had in the pack as goodbye presents. Meanwhile, the video of me surviving the avalanche was all over the internet, topping the pack's trending charts. My parents knew it was me in that video right away. That night, they took me and Summer out to the fanciest place in the Moonshadow Pack, the Moonsplit.

Ethan was livid. "Did you plan this all along to get Dad and Mom killed? You monster! Bitch! Slut! How could I have been so blind to marry someone like you? "Do you think that you can escape just because you haven't broken the law? You might avoid the law, but you won't avoid justice! Everyone here has seen your true colors. From now on, you'll never be able to hold your head up again!" He was right. The power of online harassment was indeed terrifying.

" I noticed a flicker of recognition cross Andrew's face as if the name of the herb struck a chord. "You're mistaken." I snapped the medical book closed and faced Louise head-on. "The magical herbs bloom the day after a full moon, known for their detoxifying properties. It's said to induce a hallucination of love, but only with one's destined partner. Otherwise, it's as good as useless. "You got the effects and the harvest time all wrong. Looks like your expertise isn't that impressive, Louise," I said with a hint of mockery. Louise went pale instantly, and Andrew, standing beside him, froze, his eyes flickering with a mix of reproach and curiosity.

Three years later, the Arctic Expedition came to an end. On the day I handed over the last batch of data, the endless daylight poured into the observatory. I pushed open the laboratory door, only to have a perfectly warm latte pressed against my cheek. “Naomi, congratulations on a job well done.” The man standing before me wore a weatherproof jacket. His features were gentle. There was something assuring and warm about his smile. His name was Ethan Brown, a chief exploration specialist who had been transferred from the Geological Bureau to back us up when the expedition was in its second year.

Annabel snuggled into her left side, Lukas a solid presence on her right. The episode rolled on more jellyfishing disasters, Plankton's futile schemes—but soon the duo turned their spoons toward Gloria, each offering a heaping scoop like sacred tribute. "Mommy, say 'ahh'! This bite's the best—extra banana!" Annabel cooed, spoon wobbling precariously.

After I read her texts, I replied to the hospital staff, "I'm sorry. I'm afraid you have the wrong number." I didn't bother going to the hospital. However, I did notify Pauline about Caleb's accident. Caleb was discharged from the hospital three months later. He had lost a great deal of weight and looked as though a breeze was enough to bowl him over. He looked nothing like the successful and driven individual he used to be. He said, "Ophelia, I'm sorry. I agree to the divorce." I shot a look at the hand hanging at his side, aware that he had lost all sensation in that arm. Nevertheless, I felt nothing as I answered calmly, "Good."

"What does 'die' mean?" Thora explained patiently, "It means you won't exist in this world anymore." The girl blinked, then nodded. "Oh. Then I don't want to die." Thora puffed up a little, sounding like a tiny grown-up. "What's so scary about dying? Everyone dies. I almost died once when I was five." She was talking about the time Wade took her medical money to buy Yvette a bag. Thinking about it, Thora's face turned angry. She threw the rose onto the ground and stomped on it a few times.

The collapsing world suddenly stabilized. Only slightly. Only enough. Then Ethan looked back one final time. At all of them. At the family he never truly had. At the friends he finally found. At the life he was leaving behind. Then he smiled. And whispered: “Goodbye.” The light swallowed him. Completely. Gone. Silence followed. Absolute silence. Then the Core announced: EMERGENCY EVACUATION AUTHORIZED. ALL SUBJECTS MUST EXIT IMMEDIATELY. The white space began breaking apart again.
