Ride 724: After the qualifiers
Pag 1
1: Yeah
It suits you!
2: You knowk, a robbon with summer clothes...
Where should we go have lunch?
3: No, Naruko-san was like this, teh!
The way Imaizumi-san was swinging his bike was incredible too!!
4: He was so much faster than during practice! It felt like he was flexing and bending his huge body!!
5: Naruko-san's low posture and speed was like a rocket, teh!!
6: Ahhh... that race made me lose my mind
Yeah... it was super hard, but....
Pag 2
1: That was really....
Pag 4
1: Overwhelming, teh!!
Pag 5
1: Yeah!!
“The Inter High representative is decided”
“It's Sohoku high school....”
2: It was so cool, teh...!!
Yeah!! Yeah!!
But for a moment I thought Imaizumi-san would win
That's because Naruko-san was mere seconds behind Imaizumi-san and so he was protected from the wind and could rest his legs
Huh!? Really!? He did sucha thing while running at that speed?
3: I don't really get it, but as expected from the winner of the first years' race!!
Well, yeah!! Yeah, I won
Pag 6
1: “You brokethrough the qualifiers, now next is the national competition”
“Congratulations, Roku-chan”....
“Amazing”....
2: I thought of calling out to him, but
It looks like he's getting along well with Kinaka
3: I kinda wanna jump in on their conversation
Yeah....
And the interview after that, too!
Yeah, but tyhe stage and thye mic...
5: We'll watch over him?
Yeah, alright
Pag 7
1: Roku-chan, who got there before us

Pag 8
1: Huuuh.. !?
A training camp!?
2: Starting from early next week
We asked you to come here during lunch break to prepare for that
On... what a fresh reaction!!
3: We have to load a lot of things in the car!
Ehhh.. isn't the training camp held here?
4: It's so fresh indeed, first years are so cute
It's a certain place
Where will we go? Yeah, where are we going, teh
5: And the practice menu is hell....
Pag 9
1: Nii-chan!! Nii-chan
Ah, you're right, you're right
2: I'oll tell the first years, so please don't tell them – they'll be like “huh- 1000km!?”
Every year, hearing the first years' reaction is the climax haha
Got it, got it- “every year”?
3: It's a secret
4: Ohhh... it's going to last four days?
It says we have to0 run 1000km
How much is 1000km?
5: Whose are those leaflets?
Ah... Onoda-san made them so it would be easy to understand... so he said
Ehhh
Sorry.... Kaburagi
Pag 10
1: Can you come to the training camp?
Danchiku
Pag 11
3: You've been following a different practice menu these days, and even though you say” I'm fine, it's nothing” when I ask you...
4: What are you talking about?
You didn't even come to the qualifiers
5: That's because I had to look after the other first years' practice...
It's been bothering me for a while
6: That.... that's just.... ah, in just a short while...
It's just muscular pain!! So I asked Onoda-san for a different practice menu
How long is a short while
Pag 12
2: “Since after last autumn's race on Minegayama”
“My joints have been hurting”
3: Well, you know... not that much
4: This is the price.... for sure
5: Even though I practiced
6: Because somehow I ended up winning
Pag 13
1: In a big tournament that attracts the attention of the prefecture!!
And moreover, against Hakogaku's Shinkai Yuuto....!!
2: But maybe it's going to heal soon
It'll heal heal soon
3: The pain is fading!!
Mybe it's going in a good direction!!
4: Danchiku.... that “muscular pain”
5: My bad feeling about it started last year
6: After the race on Minegayama
Issa!!
….!? Issa's intuition, more than anyone....!!
Pag 14
1: Onoda-san said that they'll choose the definitive team members at the training camp
If you don't come to the training camp you won't become a member for sure
3: If you come and don't run, it's the same
5: In Team SS... our “special strong” wqas aiming for results in the Inter High
Pag 15
1: Next yeaqr it'll be too late because I'pll become captain and be busy
Cap.....
He'll become captain?.... he alreqady decided.... on his own accord?
To run freely in the Inter High, it has to be this year!! As second years
It can only be this year!!
2: And also, I can't do it alone

No matter what the final result is!!
3: Thank you, Danchiku. I wanted to hear those words today
4: Do your best
7: Issa.... I.... I already went so many times to the hspital
Pag 18
1: But I was told that “it's nothing”
2: It should be nothing, but I feel so uncomfortable on my bike, and I don't have much time
My body, too
3: I feel a dull pain
4: So I feel helpless.....!!
Pag 19
2: On!! Teru- nii-chan!!
3: I don't really understand math, help me please
6: Pfui
7: 49.... 50....
Pag 20
1: Yeah, math? Alright, Sadatoki
The training camp is close, so....
2: With bikes, you have to hold the handles, so the strength in your upper body is also important
All skillful cyclists can use their upper body well
3: The team members will be chosen during training camp, so I have to do what I have to do
In order to become the sixth member
4: The sixth....!!
He's sweating so much.... on
5: I'll run with Imaizumi this year
It's the last Inter High after all

*downs coffee like a shot* Before we go back to our regularly scheduled Linktober/Linktober Shadow (because I don't leave things unfinished if I can help it), I gotta get the idea of Revenant First out of my system and y'all get to suffer with me until it eventually ceases being an idea and it turns into an actual story. For some reason we talk a lot about First already being alive or already a ghost by the time the Chain meets him, but I don't think I've ever heard someone talk about him actually coming back to life and so y'all get to suffer with my insane ramblings like I'm an 1800's psychic ward patient who believes themselves to be a witch.
Can be x Reader or not idk just an idea that won't leave my mind.
Might expand on this later so Part out of I/?
Revenant First, who died for his people and in the name of his Goddess. All alone on the surface, fighting, fighting, fighting, always fighting. Just to make the land a little safer before the next hero arrives, just to contain the Imprisoned for a little while longer with likely nothing than a ordinary, common sword to his name and a slowly rusting armor.
Always giving so so so much for his people, always doing his best to protect them, though they scorned him, loathed him, didn't believe or support him, rejected him.
With a spirit so strong and lovely that a Goddess fell for him, hated herself for having to manipulate and put him through such horrid experiences just to save the many, just to turn the diamond of his soul into an unbreakable lonsdaleite blade agaisnt a mad deity.
Someone whose will would be enough to keep him going, just one more fight right? Just one more kill right? Forward, forward, ever onward, it doesn't matter if the flesh decays, if the blood drips drips drips until he is dry of it, if the liver doesn't process nutrients, if the lungs don't draw air, if the nerves feel nothing but the cold cold numbness of the winter of his final years, if the heart doesn't beat. If the armor rusts or the sword breaks. He must keep going, he must keep fighting.
To keep them safe he must have faith, faith that he can keep going, to grasp onto that one.single.thread of purpose until the day that fiery, indomitable, determined will finally burns out. Even if his Goddess may have forsaken him knowingly or unknowingly, even if his people have rejected him to the point he isn't even human anymore, even though they reviled him, even if that rejection should by all intents and purposes chained his spirit to the land or ground the jewel of his unbreakable soul into dust, he still loves them, still adores them, still wants to protect them.
No matter how long he must keep going for it. He wishes to see those he holds dear happy, though they cursed and imprisoned him once.
The Chain getting dropped into a completely empty, desolated and undeniably dead version of Sky's Hyrule, only to find the only living thing besides monster is a single man, with rusted gold armor and an old sword, a faded tunic of green with a long, crimson scarf like a bloody banner. With hair and eyes like theirs, undeniably a Link. But so very frigid, so very silent they almost didn't notice him, that they can't help but wonder just how many years he has spent there, eroding away, ruined but still kind, kind, so very gentle. A shadow of his former self, yes, but still himself, still so so so good, doing all he can until Sky's Era comes and maybe, just maybe, he can finally rest.
Or maybe not, after all, someone has to keep the land safe until the Hero after Sky comes around, no?
Just Revenant First in general.
Or maybe we give him the House in Fata Morgana treatment, the House in Fata Hylia Au if you will- *collapses from sleep deprivation*
