Delusion

My mind was flooded with emotions.

I didn't know what was going on.

'Am I hallucinating?'

"...oni-chan?"

————————————————————————

I sat on the ground, facing someone I had longed to see for years... but this was impossible. And I knew it.

"You're not real..." I spoke loudly, my voice trembling with emotion. I felt tears begin to build up in my eyes as I fought back to keep them from flowing.

"Y/n... it is me." My older brother bent down a few feet away from me and smiled warmly. He extreded a hand towards me, trying to get me to come closer.

"N-no this isnt you..." I slowly started scooting back, unaware of the tears starting to stream down my face. My hands and legs started to tremble as I backed myself against a tree.

"Y/n, it is me. Aren't you happy to see me?" He slowly inched closer, still holding the same expression. He looked just liked I remembered. The same hair color as me, pale blue eyes, and a small scar along his cheek from when I accidentally threw a piece of glass at him as kids. Despite wanted to believe it was him... I knew it was impossible.

"YOU'RE DEAD YUKI!! I WATCHED YOU DIE IN MY ARMS!!" My voice was now filled with rage and sadness and I stood up on my feet with my trembling legs, my fists gripped so tight they were turning white. Tears were spilling from my eyes uncontrollably as I fought the urge to run over and hug him, wanting him to just hug me and tell me everything is alright.

"Y/n... I didn't die..." His smile wavered for a split second before returning to the happy face he wore before. He started slowly walking towards me as I was cornered against a tree.

"No. I wish you didn't. But I don't know who the fuck you are, but I swear I'm going to make sure you die for this." I knew it was an empty threat, but I was overcome with so much right now I didn't care at all.

"You're the first pathetic human to not fall for this." His smile instantly faded to a look of insanity as his flesh morphed into the most disgusting demon I had ever laid eyes on. He had bumpy dark green skin with patches of purple, a hunchback, and blood poring out of his eyes. 'Former lower 1???'

I notices the crossed out symbol in his eye and knew it was over for me. 'I wish I could actually see you again...'

*𝗙𝗹𝗮𝘀𝗵𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸*

"Oni-chaan!! You told me we could go visit the old guy today!!" I looked up at my older brother with sparkles in my eyes, eager to go outside and visit around the village.

He chuckled at me and patted my head. "I know y/n, we can go today." He smiled at me and continued cooking whatever he was.

"Yaaayyy thank you!! When can we go??" I eagerly tugged on his white haori, extremely exited. Despite our age gap being only three years, he was way taller then my and by far more mature. He was the perfect boy in our small village, the village hidden away in the mountains.

"Come on y/n you need to be pacient, didn't kirame-san teach you about that as well?" He looked down at me with a joking smile and hit my head with a wooden spoon.

"Hey thats mean!! Whats wrong with wanting to learn about how other people live outside of our village??" I turned my head and pouted, plopping myself down on the floor by his feet.
