Chapter 11: Dear Sister

*Margaret's POV*

"Do you have a Kirami Hanarama here?" The nurse lets me to Miss Hanarama's room but first, I need to go to a mirror to se if I look presentable for Miss Hanarama. My wavy black hair is tied up in a ponytail with a red bow attached to it. I touch my left eye that has a bandage on it and I felt a painful sting on it. Now I only have my one emerald eye. My dark skin shines from the hospital lights and I wore my maroon victorian style dress with black stockings and boots. This outfit looks very outdated, I should change my clothes soon.

I take a deep breath and take a good look at my face. Theres my emerald eye, my makeup looks good, and so does my red plump lips. Alright, everything looks good. But I do look tired

When I open the door to Miss Hanarama's room, I see her and a young man that I do not recognize. Miss Hanarama lays on her bed unconscious and her left eye is completely gone. All that's left is a bloody bandage.

So this is what she looks like. Her short black hair is a mess, her pale skin looks almost sparkly because of the sunlight from the window next to us, and her body looks.....thin. I hope she's taking care of herself. I sigh while thinking to myself what the hell Maria has done to this poor girl.

As I walk closer to her, I really get to take a glimpse at her face. Her skin is soft and clear, no impurities at all. She looks so peaceful, like she has not gotten proper rest in months. I see Miss Hanarama slowly open her eye and she looks at me. She seems a bit woozy and she says "Mari? Is that you?" Her frail hand presses against my cheek and she continues saying "Mari, I'm sorry. I won't upset you again, just give June back".

I'm used to people mistaking me for my twin sister, I mean, of course we look alike. I don't exactly know who June is though. I hold her hand that's on my cheek and I calmly say "No Miss Hanarama, my name Is Margaret Antoinette Lyon. I don't know if my sister told you about me, but I had to meet you". Miss Hanarama takes her hand off of me and lays back down, taking a deep breath. Even though she seems woozy from her being unconscious, god know how long, her energy is coming back to her. "Please, call me Kirami". Kirami looks to her left and sees the man laying in a bed as well. His neck is sliced up and has a large blood stained bandage wrapped around it. He looks worse than Kirami.

I hear Kirami sigh and explains to me that the man's name is Tommie and he's her son. "How does he look so much older than you?" I ask feeling shocked. "I don't even know. He doesn't know where he's from or anything, and he's nineteen! But anyway, how did we get here? Where's Mari?!" I calm Kirami down, telling her "Lady Amelia and Mister Jackson found you two. They run this hospital so they brought you here". I immediately sense her heart being infected, O thought Lady Amelia took care of this.  Oh dear sister, you have claimed this human as your own, have you?

"Amelia and Jackson run this hospital? I had no idea". I then tell her "I do not know where my sister is. She left you two to die". I give her a pitiful look and she looks down. Poor thing, she's been constantly used for Maria's hunger and pleasure. Well, I have good news to tell her. "Kirami, who is June?" I ask. Kirami looks up at me, looking tired, and she begins to explain. "June is...or was...my wife." Kirami tells me how June died from a car accident and Maria promised her she would bring June back from the dead. I heard from Lady Amelia that Maria wasn't planning on keeping her promise, instead she was leading Kirami on and planning to eat her heart. Figures, Lady Amelia--or Maryanne--had her heart eaten and became blind. She's experienced the same agonizing pain that all of Maria's other victims experienced.

I knew about Maryanne and Maria. I knew about the abuse, the pain that Maria went through.....her murder. I tried my best to help her, I really did. Mother and I grieved her death, I never thought that she would become so murderous and cruel. I held my bandaged left eye. Even though I held it gently, It still hurts. What she did to Mother, what she did to me. What person would think of slaughtering someone in the most barbaric way?

I shake my head, getting the painful memories out of my brain. "Kirami, you must hate Maria after what she's done to you, right?" I have an idea. Kirami looks as if she thinking about the question, and gives me a straight answer, looking at me with vengefulness in her brown eyes, simply saying "Yes. She hurt me, she hurt my son, she hurt my friends! I can't let her kill anymore people that I love!" She starts to get riled up, she wants Maria to suffer just as much as I do. I then explain to her about my plan.

"Can you tell me what does June look like?" I ask her curiously. Kirami tells me that June has short messy brunette hair, green eyes, and wears tomboyish clothes. I remember seeing a girl that fits Kirami's description. I held Kirami's cheeks and I say to her "What if I told you that I know where June is being held at?"
