On That Day

New Reality

I woke up to a red sky. No stars. No clouds. Just blood red.

"Ah, I must be having another weird dream. I shouldn't be too worried since it might just be memories of something that has already happened." I said, referring to the last dream I had about the former Lunarians being slaughtered. I got up from where I lay, still wearing my baggy shirt but no shoes. I walked around a bit in hopes of maybe finding something useful. Then again, if this is something that has happened in the past, then there's a low chance of finding anything useful.

As I'm walking, I step on something thick and wet, "Ew, is this mud or something? Where exactly am I?" I bend down in attempts to clean off the supposed mud, but that's when I realise it's not mud. "No, is this blood?!" I said, horrified, looking down on the blood on my hand. I should be used to something like this by now, but something about the blood felt terribly familiar. Just who's blood is this?

I get back up and notice more blood, so I follow it. I soon come across a small hill that has some trees on it. I climbed the hill but when I got to the top that's when I saw it. A sight I thought I never would have to see. All of my friends. Haru, Reo, Rukia, Yuna. Dead. A tight rope hanging their bodies to the trees, blood dripping down their bruised feet, their arms or legs severed. I drop to the floor and let out an agonising scream, "What the hell happened? Why are they dead? Who did this? What's going on?" I gripped my head in pain while I looked down at my laps.

I then realised that Hiro was missing. I looked back up - tears rolled down my face. The bodies of all my friends except one hung right in front of me. Why is this happening? I shifted my hand back, and I hit something soft and wet. I flinched as I saw the fresh blood on my hand. I looked to the source behind me, and that's when I saw him. Hiro. Also dead. Lying right behind me. His eyes open but staring into the abyss. Blood dripped from his mouth, and a hole punctured into his stomach. A hole way too big that his organs spilt out from behind. I screamed.

"Hiro! Oh no, what happened to him?! How did this happen." I exclaimed, tears filling my eyes the more. I brought him closer to me, his head in my hands as I shook him profusely. Then I heard him speak, "It's all your fault..." What? I don't understand. Is it my fault? Just then, his hand shot up and started to strangle me. "H-Hiro p-please stop. I-I can't b-breath.." was all I was able to get out. He was now on top of me, his blood dripped onto my face, and his grip tightened. I can't breathe. I'm going to die!

"It's all your fault we ended up like this. It's your fault we're dead!" His grip tightened even more, making it impossible for me to breathe - my hands around his wrists trying to pry them off. How is this my fault? What did I do wrong? Then it dawned on me. The reason everything so far has happened is because I'm still alive. Because I'm a Lunarian, I put everyone around me in danger. It is my fault. "I hate you for everything you've put us through. Just die already."

Just then, everything started to break apart, and I started to fall from that hill. Hiro's face, looking down on me. The bodies of my friends in view. All I could hear while falling into an empty darkness was voices saying it's all my fault and I should just die. Maybe I should just die. All I could think of was dying as I fell to my death...

"AAAH!" I screamed and let out a gasp of air as I woke up from my nightmare. Tears were rolling down my eyes, and sweat soaked my clothes. I feel confused. Why am I crying? "I can't remember what that dream was about? It must have been really depressing if I'm crying and sweating this much." Damn I stink. I wipe the tears from my eyes as I catch a glimpse of the time on my phone.

8:30 am

~Flashback~

"Oh Yukina, forgot to tell you school starts at 8:45 so it's different from your former school." Yuna told me. At least I don't have to wake up super early this time. I'm so grateful.
