Another Time

Chapter 2 « Protection »

A/N
Firstly I want to say sorry for my lack of motivation.
Im trying to write more because i have time but its kinda hard tbh.

And thank you for reading lmao

TW: gore, blood, fights, and prolly sad idk but thats it

As I was walking in the streets of Finland, I got lots of weird stares, probably because I was obnoxiously taller than everyone else.

Everything was going ok until I saw him.

He was walking with a girl, I almost burst into laughter from the lack of height he has.

I was sure it was Rose and his girlfriend, Nevaeh.

I walked past them, slightly giggling.

As I was walking away from them, there was a creepy dude following the two lovers.

I turned around and yelled "WATCH OUT!"

The dude had a knife in his hand, he looked like he was ready to attack.

I ran to them, knocking the guy on to the dead grass.

"What the fuck are you trying to do, kill them?!" I shouted.

"Maybe, and what are you going to do, you slut."

"Make your life a living nightmare, shortie."

I pinned the guy against a wall.  I clenched my fist, the skin on my knuckles turning white.

And it was a matter of time for me to remember he had a knife.

"If you don't get your hands off of me. I'll fucking stab you."

"And? That won't kill me, dumbass."

As I said so, he threw the knife.
I thought he threw it at me, but I was wrong.

He threw it straight at Rose.
But the thing I didn't know is that he missed.

"YOU FILTHY BITCH!"
"WHY DID YOU THROW IT AT HIM?!"

I flung my fists at him, making him bleed.
Leaving dark purple bruises on his disgusting face.

I was so angry, I failed to protect my best friend.

Tears full of anger rushed down my face, still attacking the guy.

"HEY, CALM DOWN- Rose is ok!-" Nevaeh exclaimed

I didn't care, I was so pissed off at the guy. I wanted to kill him.

And so, I grabbed his knife.

"Oh, you're going to kill me?"
"That's sweet, do it."

"Oh I will kill you, don't worry."

I stabbed him.

And so, as I drained them of their humanity, colour, emotion and life.
I gained the euphoric, weightless feeling I craved so despirately.

It was undeniable now, as I withdrew the blade, I knew.

I had killed him.

And as he passed on to the after life.
I knew, chillingly, a place in hell has formed for me.

I was terrified.
A lanky tall person, crying their eyes out, just because they had killed someone.

"Hanako..?-"

I heard Rose say, I knew he figured out it was me.
His mess of a friend.

"Yes.?" I answered, my sleep-deprived voice, slightly cracking from crying.

He pulled me into a hug.
A long and calming hug.
The one I craved for a decade.

"I'm sorry."
"I'm sorry."
"I'm so sorry."

"Don't worry, you saved us, teacup."

Heh, I forgot about that stupid nickname, I always loved.
Still do.

As the sky turned grey, it started to rain.

It poured on all of us, covering the dark, dead grass.

As it poured, Rose helped me with my luggage, since I was still in panic from earlier.

"Hey, Hanako?"

"Hm?."

"Do you want to move in with me and darling?" Rose offered

"I- really?."

"Yeah! I always wanted to live with you and darling!"

"Then sure!-"

I was happy, my best friend wanted to live with me and his girlfriend.

Life couldn't get worse.

-or could it?.-

<preparing>
