My Demons (Tokyo Revenger)

Chapter 6

TAKEMICHI

I opened the door of my room and then closed it.

It's quiet...

I walked to the big mirror of my room. I looked to myself, my white hair is a mess, blood already dried up on me, there are dark bags under my eyes, my skin was so pale like there is no more blood, and the tattoo was on my chest.

Showing my biggest mistake.

Is this the best future?

I look at my hands, it was painted with scarlet. 

What have I done?

This isn't what I want!

This isn't the future I want!

I want to be with them!

Happy and free!

"But you can't do that"

I look at my reflection, she's smiling grimly and there's blood everywhere.

"You choose this path, not them. You push them away, you let yourself go"

"No! I don't want this" I said.

"You poor thing, no one will love you. You're too broken."

"..." I look at the wooden floor.

"You continue to chase after the boy who didn't even love you back, you save him EVERY. TIMELINE. But, look at you. He didn't even fall in love with you, through all those timelines. Is either he died, killed, or turn evil. But all of them have one thing in common. THEY DIDN'T LOVE YOU BACK." 

"You kept saving him, loving him but what is the price of that? YOU SUFFERING IN EVERY TIMELINE. Isn't it so frustrating?"

I remained quiet, everything she said is right.

"You are so fragile. So oblivious. Look at you, you even copy his look on one of the timelines. You are so pathetic." 

I punched the mirror and it shattered and fall on the wooden floor. I heard her laugh.

"*huff* *huff* *huff*, Arggghhh!" I screamed. I throw all the stuff I get my hands of.

Glass shreds, papers, pillows, and dirt littered all over the floor.

Mikey is back.

No, this can't be!

I...

I can't face him, like this.

I'm disgusting!

This is not me!

I made a mistake!

I looked at my hands, it was stained with dried up blood from that person I was negotiating with.

It's disgusting...

"Empress, It's me Haru." I look at the door, to see Haru already entered my room.

I ran at him and held his vest.

"Haru, he's back! Please let me see him! Let me be with him!" I said, tears falling already on my eyes.

Haru looked at me for a few minutes, then smiled at me.

I know that smile.

"You know I can't do that, I can't let you meet him." He said then grip my wrist tightly. I winced on the pain.

"Your mine now, your ours. I can't let you be with him when finally I already have you in my arms. I won't let you, I will kill everyone who dares to steal you away." he then smiled menacingly.
