Shi no Ki

Death

You laid on the dirty wooden floor of the room, injuries and blood covered your body, your throat pained like hell whilst you coughed endlessly.

Your own blood oozing out from your mouth, leaving it's metallic taste on your tongue, your once white clothing was now painted in blood, blood that splattered the walls and the floor.

In the midst of it all, there laid your mother's pale corpse, blood all over her lips, it had also stain on her clothes, and arms. Her once beautifully kept hair was now disheveled, covering her face.

Laughter erupted in a specific area in the room, a familiar voice filled your ears, it was a voice that you carefully know and despised the most "Oh, how i was waiting for this day!" Ineko, the mistress of the bastard that you once called "Father", sinisterly laughed.

You balled up your fists on the bloody floor, your hands stained with the liquid, you looked up at her with anger and disgust, tears streaming down from your eyes down to your cheeks.

"Oh? You poor little thing" she crouched down in front of you, harshly grabbing both sides of your face on her hand before she maniacally smiled "It would've been better if you just stayed silent and accepted me into the family, who knows..." she threw your face from her hand and stood before you.

"Maybe in another life, you would've called me 'Mother' instead of that pathetic excuse of a woman that failed to protect both of her children" she laughed once more whilst making her way to your mother's corpse.

"That will never happen, I would rather kill myself before I would be born in your rotten womb, bitch" you spat out, coughing whilst you gathered the strength to hold yourself up.

You soon felt pain on your scalp, the mistress had grabbed a fistful of your hair and painfully pulled your head up "That's some harsh words to say to your stepmother, I'm being merciful by giving you a chance to live since you have that strong Jujutsu power-".

"While those two brats of yours doesn't? No wonder why you neglected them" You laughed before you were thrown across the room, you winced in pain as your back ached, it would no doubt be bleeding.

"Are you going to accept my offer or not?" "I'd rather die" you sneered at her.

With a single swing of a sharp dual blade object,

you were beheaded.

With the same object, it went through both of the palms of your hands, your scream was muffled by a large cloth tied from your mouth and around your head "Poor Y/n, you wish to live?".

You sneered at her once more "I'd rather.." you huffed, still feeling the sharp pain from your hands "..Die—" the object pierced through the middle of your head.

Same object, same place, same name, same age, same things but another life, same question, "I'd.." "Rather..." "DIE—" same answer but you died different ways of death.

You felt the sharp pain on your chest, you slightly laughed "No matter how many times you kill me, my answer would still be the same" you tasted the same metallic liquid that became familiar with you.

"Mark my words, one day, I will have my vengeance and avenge my mother and brother..!" Ineko laughed loudly to her heart's content "You'll just die anyway, how will you get vengeance?!" She continued to laugh.

"You're just a pathetic weakling, Shikiyama Y/n" you slightly smiled at her words "We'll see who'll be the one laughing next time," you glared at her coldly before continuing your sentence.

"Bitch"
