二十八 unraveling the past

*mature content- heavy topics mentioned*

You were 16.

You had awoken in the middle of the night suddenly.

Sat up in bed, heart over your chest hearing your heart thud hard against your ribs.

You could feel it.

Something was happening.

You slowly walked down the hallway, and down the staircase.

The only noise, the sound of your footsteps as you walked down the hallway.

You stopped dead in your tracks when you found Shouga standing in the living room.

His gaze immediately flickered to yours as if he had been waiting for you.

"Oh my love, the time has come."

He smiled, as you approached him.

His rough hands held your face, as you stood in front of him.

And then-

The world seemed to stand still for a moment.

You looked down, at the black inky marks up and down your skin, your arms, waist, neck.

You were stuck in place, but you were completely calm.

He felt like a magnet- you were drawn to.

Your gaze flickered back to his.

"Shiina," he breathed out, his voice low.

"You will kill all of them."

"Destroy this whole town, and burn it to the ground."

"It will be like it never existed."

You sat up abruptly gasping for breath, your hand coming to your chest, that didn't seem to expand enough to take in the air you needed.

You couldn't breathe.

The room around you was spinning, as your chest clenched.

"Shiina."

The voice felt distant to you.

Your mind was reeling.

You leaned forward, fingertips gripping the sheets of the bed as you struggled to suck in air.

There was ringing in your ears, as the world around you was blurred.

"Shiina."

And then everything seemed to come into focus.
