LILITH RIRISU'S LORE

CHAPTER 1; 𝐖𝐇𝐈𝐒𝐏𝐄𝐑𝐒

The day I was born was on November 09, at ER. I was born with purple hair and pitch black eyes. I got my hair color and eyes from my mom, and my personality and skin tone from my dad.

I was born in a happy family, I have a brother named Yun.

I was named Lilith by my uncle when my mom passed out after giving birth, my father was on his way to the ER, so he was a bit late. When he arrived, I already had a name.

I never liked my name, So I took my Japanese name; Ririsu. It was suggested by my cousin, Mason.

(STORY STARTS WHEN LILITH IS 4 YEARS OLD)

We are at the family gathering, about 10:00 pm, at Red Roses Diner. My father; Alexis, told me to respect the family members. My cousins are there.

Mason, one of my cousins was sitting alone on the corner of the venue. He was about 15 years old at that time. He's the son of my uncle who named me when I was born, his father's name is Damon.

I didn't bother to approach him, he's too mature.

My grandmother on my father's side told me to give everyone the cupcakes my mom baked. So I did.

At last, I approached Mason and gave him the cupcake. I said "Here, my mom baked it". I thought he'd be pissed that I talked to him. But he gently took the cupcake from my hand and said in a soft tone "Auntie Flora baked these? Let me try".

I ended up sitting beside him the whole time, we talked for a whole hour.

"Is Uncle Damon rude? He named me Lilith when I was born".

I asked Mason, he looked at me and slightly nod.

"He's such a child, yet so abusive. But Lilith is not that bad of a name, is it?"

Mason replied, his hands started fidgeting.

"It means 'night monster' that's what my friend said."

Mason chuckled, he looked at me and smiled softly.

"Do you want me to keep calling you Lilith?".

I shook my head aggressively. I stood up and walked in front of him.

"Call me Princess Unicorn!"

I yelled, Mason laughed.

"Princess Unicorn? That's long, isn't it? What about Ririsu?"

He said, he wasn't trying to be rude to me but I can sense the hint of mockery on him.

"Ririsu? Why?"

I asked.

"It's your name translated to Japanese."

He replied, I nod in agreement, Ririsu sounds good.

(2 YEARS LATER)

I turned 6 years old, it's currently October 07, my parents left for a vacation. And my brother, Yun, has left the house for college.
I was left with Uncle Damon and Mason.

Mason turned 17 this year, he focuses more on studies while I focus on finding friends. Living with Mason just strengthened my relationship with him. He's like a brother to me now, the best cousin I had.

It was 13:00 am, Uncle Damon let me stay up late since he was too drunk to even talk.
I was playing in Mason's room while he studied. Suddenly, Uncle Damon barged in and pulled me by the hair.

Mason was shocked, he immediately stood up and tried to stop his father. Uncle Damon then throws a bottle of beer at Mason's head, he's bleeding but still has his consciousness. Yet he felt weak.

Mason couldn't move as he watched the scene. Uncle Damon beat me up.

Since then, I have felt crazy. It keeps happening everyday, my parents haven't came back yet, Uncle Damon already told them to come home late so they can have more fun and I could have "fun" with him.

October 15, 6:00 pm.

Mason is wrapping my arm with bandages. I couldn't feel myself anymore, my eyes are wide. I don't know how to smile.

It happened again.

October 23, 15:00 am.

I was going crazy, I could hear voices saying "stab him" or "just end your life"

October 26, 9:00 am.

My parents came back.
They knock on the door, they become impatient, they realize the door was open, so they let themselves in.

They saw Uncle Damon, on the couch, sleeping with alcohol on his hand.

The smell of the house smells like alcohol, cigarette and blood.

They try wake Uncle Damon up but he's fast asleep.

They walk to Mason's room to see him hanging dead on the ceiling while I cry silently on the side, bleeding.

My mom screamed.

October 27, 12:00 pm.

The police arrested uncle Damon, I was at the hospital trying to recover. But the voices are worsen saying "hang them like they hang Mason".

Mason was already dead. I felt empty inside but all my tears are gone.

The doctor then told my mother that I have a mental disorder called; Depersonalization.

My mom couldn't help but cry.
