The morning starts off as normal for my sister and me. A passed away family where only they are obtainable through dreams. A horrific scene of the crash took my family away. I'm a survivor whose brain grew another version of herself her. An alternate more violent me who is kept under control with will power. A school day where the boy I like is approaching and my blood pumping fast as he passes by me. A sigh of relief as I am now able to walk away from it and deal with the rest of the day. A daily routine for me. I pass the first hour gym and second hour culinary. Third hour I'm asked by my friend who I am still mad at because he makes fun of me asks a question.
"Can you help me understand this." He asks. I am simply to mad at him for his constant teasing. This also wouldn't be a problem if he was paying attention. So, I nod my head no. However, I was convinced to help him, but he got called to the office. So, the rest of my day just flew cause all I did was gawk at Akira. When I got home, I ate some left-over burgers from yesterday's fast food. I stayed up until the crack of dawn to finish some work I had piled up. I hate doing this though because of my alter ego. She comes out and does questionable things and I wake up to more than I asked for. So, I tried to suppress her for as long as I could. I woke up to find a lot of paper ripped up on my floor. I try to reason with her, but she doesn't seem to want to cooperate. I don't understand her, so I stay away from her. Even in therapy she doesn't talk but understands it and seems to be a little older than me or my age.
So, I just cleaned up the paper and threw it into the trash bin. I make it to school finally after a long bike and the same old same old the regular day. I don't socialize much not because I'm lonely, it's just that everyone is boring. They are a pain, so I only talk to Kami and Akira. I cant talk to Kami, so I must muster up the courage to talk to Akira mainly because I don't talk to him that often. He has fourth hour lunch with me so I can talk to him then. I wait bored out of my mind until lunch. I saw him at a table in the cafeteria surprisingly alone. So, I thought to myself this is perfect and went up to his table and just nervously ask can I sit here. He replies saying.
"Yeah, go ahead" in a prideful tone. I ask him why he is sitting alone, and he laughs proudly and states.
"Well, that's because nobody can hang with me" I ask him what he means by that, and he again follows with.
"Well, I told everybody they are ass because they don't drop no points a game like me and can't be like me. Therefore, they cant hang with me you know what I'm saying. They were scared and didn't want to hang out with me anymore. Not my fault they suck." I give an awkward yeah but that doesn't stop me from talking to him. I like that about him, so I don't care if others aren't around, it's better for me anyway. So, I talked with him all lunch allowing him to ramble on but soon the bell hit, and I had to leave. I just skipped Fifth hour because there was no point in being at school anymore. I head back home, and I greet my sister, she is confused why I'm back home so early but drops it cause she knows I skipped. She thinks I'm smart and technical but it's not hard if you pay attention to the class. I passed the final for my other classes in the first week, so I just go cause I have nothing better too do. I soon find myself laying on my bed drifting away. I wake up in my room covered in blood that is not my own. I walked out and find my sister laying on the floor bloody. I'm at a loss for words and fall to the ground to find a knife in my hands. I dropped it and scooted away. I hear a voice the same as mine.
"Sorry our sister was pressing us to much, so I took her out." I lose my willpower and my alter ego switches with me as I'm still awake. It feels like I'm no longer in control and I cant move my body. I am observing my alter ego from inside my mind go on a murder spree while feeling everything without doing anything. I can't go to sleep, and I start to panic as my mother's crash is vivid within my mind replaying like a broken record. I scream and holler trying to make it stop and finally I get control over the body again right before she ends another person's life I stop. However, the person had other plans and stabbed me with the night fall.
I fell to the ground again instead in a concrete area it must have been hours she has been killing people. The person grabs a nearby slab of concrete and bashes my head and body with it. I can't see but I feel hot and exposed. I move my smushed hand to my stomach and ah... my intestines are leaking out of my body. I panic but can't move my senses are only limited to touch and taste. I can taste the iron in the blood and the tanginess of the concrete slab. I'm content with death...or so I thought I still form what I think is a fist with my hand and try to move. I cannot, so I can only sit there and observe the world around me through these limited senses.
The one who started it all is laughing I can hear her. That shit pisses me off! I will not let her get her ending I will live I will live I WILL! Everything becomes a shade darker, and I awake in a white room with glass panels to my left and right. My body restored and my senses back. I see Kami knocked out and Akira awake. In front of me is a man and he says.
"Aoi Chikyu, test subject number #84394, successful, happy rebirth."
