I wake up. The cold marble floor tickles my spine and hands as I lay there motionless. I turn to my right just for a second, "Don't tell them that you can see." Hang on.. It takes a few seconds for my memories to come flashing back at me, I haven't been able to see for years! Why could I see now?

If you don't know why I am worried, then you might not know much about how the brain works. If we could live longer, let's say 200 Years, our brains would be filled to the brim with memories. Theoretically, if you could live longer, your brain would be so full that you cannot even finish nor start a sentence. "So what if you can't see?" While the risk of old age is a thing, if you bypass that then you open the possibility to become the oldest human.

All of that is theories however.

I stand up and look at myself, I feel taller, maybe more manly? Ah who am I kidding? I'm not even average height. I want to see everything again. I walk around, my usual routine. acting as though I cannot see. I can tell everyone is trying their best, however it feels so wrong to see them. The walls plastered with "Don't tell them you can see!" Who was them? I'm assuming the humanoid creatures infront of me would explain it. It looks as though they.. arent human. But they still regress human characteristics. They aren't black, white or any other race. They're.. Green? And they're growing horns? Am I turning into a demon or whatever this is, like them? I walk backwards in fear slowly before sprinting to the bathroom. I look in the mirror to reflect a normal person.  I was relieved and my hand swept across my face, my hair was picked up by my hand. To reveal red horns.

What? How? What AM I? A demon? A goblin? I'm red, unlike them all being green. What was going on? I'm growing.. HORNS?!

I jump backwards yet hit my head on the bath's edge. I was knocked out like a lamp. Before I was fully unconscious, I muttered the words, "Akuma."
