Fading memories: Forgiveness

Misconception

(This part of the story is told through perspective of Yasashi)

I do not know what i have become but i face away a second to clear my mind, i was once... human.. i once had emotions but most importantly, i once had a family. All of this hits me at once as tears fall down my face. I haven't felt emotion in a long time but memories of the past seem to get me. Tatsuya sees this and attempts to comfort me putting his hand on my shoulder.

Tatsuya: Listen, You can still redeem yourself. Even though we are demons, we can still redeem ourselves. You aren't a bad person Yasashi, i know that.

Yasashi: i want to see Rei again... i want to prove to Kusuri that I never wanted to kill him.

Tatsuya: Rei still love you, you just have to-

His words have been cut off by his gasping for air. His face white and blood dripping to the floor, i look down and see a knife go deep into his neck with the blade facing me. Tatsuya flops to the floor still gasping for air as i see who is responsible for this. My assumption was right, he was following me. Kusuri's gaze met my eyes as shock and tears flew into my eyes. He was accompanied by another purple haired man with wings. Trying to keep my composure i talk to him

Yasashi: so, you have come back as a spirit.

Kusuri: That doesn't matter now, what has HE done to you Yasashi!

He points at Tatsuya who has crawled away and using a nearby wall as a rest for his body

Yasashi: Him!? Nothing!

Kusuri: Then who did this to you? I want a proper answer!

Yasashi: don't you see?

Kusuri's expression turns from anger to confusion.

Yasashi: nobody has done this to me, i am a demon and this is what has driven me to this moment.

Tatsuya tries to say something by his neck wound won't let him say anything as he is still gasping for air.

Kusuri: I know you are still a good person Yasashi, i know how much you helped Rei. What happened to that!?

Yasashi: This happened to it...

I raise my tomahawk as darkness fills the blade as it is now one with my soul. I take my gas mask off my face to expose my tears more clearly.

Yasashi: i cannot be redeemed for what i have done Kusuri. I murdered you.

Kusuri: Yasashi i have forgiven you! You can still redeem yourself and have a second chance!

Yasashi: I don't deserve a second chance.
