Reawakened (Neteyam x Fem reader)

Chapter 38: Shifting into your enemy

POV: First person, Y/n

"Neteyam... can I rest my eyes for a bit," I asked, my eyes slowly closing.

Neteyam gasped, "No- no no Y/n, you have to keep your eyes opened- Y/n- Y/n, hey l- look at me please, just looked at me okay, stay with me please, please," while he begged, he cried too, dropping his sweet tears against my face. I felt his braids touch my skin too, this made me felt better. He tightly held my hand, not wanting to let go of me.

"I can't... lost a lot of blood.. I don't know if I can.. keep up," my breathing became heavy every second. Soon enough I blacked out, and I could not see him anymore.

Neteyam? Neteyam! I'm here! Where's everyone?

My vision was black then soon I saw strains of blue light passing by.

What's happening?

Many questions ran through my head. I didn't feel my body, felt numb. Everything happened so fast, that I did know I was in the... forest? Wasn't I in the cave system.

"Looks like we lost them, Quaritch," said someone behind me.

"Who," I asked, and turned to the person who spoke. My eyes widened and I plunged into the recom, "who are you? What is this? Why am I still here," I growled at him, holding him by the collar.

"Quaritch, Quaritch, it me Lyle," Lyle placed his hands up in defense.

"Lyle," I realized something.

I did I transfer my mind into Quaritch's recom body?

"No, no, no," I scream ran to find water, "this is not happening, shit," even my voice was different. I sounded like Quaritch, Look like Quaritch. A literal male like Quartich.

Wahhh!?!? I have a thingy down there now?!

I ran to a small river and checked my reflection, I clasped my hands to my face, looking a Quaritch.

"He's so old," I cried out, "eww,"

I couch down and hid my face between my knees, then I cried.

Nooo did I die and became or- or this is my second life?! No no no

I sniffled and whimpered, "fuck my life," I cried out.

"Quaritch you good," Lyle came running in, panting, "look I know you might want to have a break but-," he tried to explain.

"Shut up you bald headed bitch, I'll kill you if you say another word," I popped my head out, and yell at him.

And he did not say another word at all, "this is your fault, all your fault," I shouted and got up. Knowing that Quaritch is taller than Lyle, I stand tall, "I want to end my existence right now," I sighed and looked up at the trees.

"We.. we should get you check up," Lyle said, worried for his comrade, "let's go,"

———{                                     }———

I still had a young life. I haven't even told my feelings to Neteyam. There was still so much to do. Does that mean as Quaritch I have to kill the people that I love? Is that my fate as this role in this world?  What about I refuse to hunt them down and kill everyone here? But what if I told my people that it's me Y/n? Well they know? Will Neteyam still love me? Wait- no he wouldn't, probably would look at me differently.

I groaned in sorrow as a human checked my systems. Lyle beside me. Everything is happening so fast that I don't know what to do. I blankly stared at the ground. As I sat on a table, I dangled my feet. 

"After we lost them... he been acting like a child," Lyle spoke with the human, "he even tried to attack me, might be having an identity crisis again. Like the first time," he explained.

"It seems so, you'll lead blue group for now," the human said, "let's give him an mental day off and see what happens tomorrow,"

Lyle nodded and turned to me. He lightly touch my shoulder with his hand. I flinched, back up and scream, "don't touch me you bald headed bitch," I hissed.

"Woah, woah," Lyle stepped back and put his hands up, "Quaritch you are going to take a day off today and tomorrow," he nodded.

I turned my head, "what," I was confused.

What's a day off? I lose a day of life?! Huh?! Ewya help me!
