Static filled the darkened room, the only lighting coming from a small television and a dim lamp. Undeterred by the dim lighting sat a lone figure on a worn-down couch, curled up with his arms wrapped around his legs. He stared listlessly ahead as the news continued.
"— and just in, the body of a third-year student has been found disembodied on campus of Tokiwadai High School. The 18-year-old, named B-sei to protect his identity, was last seen yesterday afternoon by his clubmates, before disappearing. Found this morning strewn across the campus, authorities are still ruling out suspects and motives. Campus will be closed until authorities are certain it is safe for students to go back to campus.
"While not certain, police believe this may be linked to the recent disappearance of 17-year-old A-me, who happened to be a clubmate and friend of B-sei. As more details are revealed, we will continue to cover the story of both teens until the answers are found.
"Moving on—"
The T.V. flickered off, and the young adult tossed the remote to the side after hitting the power button, gazing listlessly at the black screen.
A murder and a disappearance of two high school students that happened to be in the same club...
Something stirred in his chest, a painful ache that nagged him to just leave this be. It wasn't his battle, not this time, but he couldn't help it. Images were already flitting through his mind, memories that even years of therapy couldn't assuage. A messy mop of brown hair, the head detached from the body; a black-haired teen with multiple stab wounds; two girls, missing.
It was happening again.
He didn't want to deal with this again. He couldn't deal with this again. But fate didn't care what he wanted, and would continue to move forward whether he was ready or not.
It was okay, though. Sure, students would die, but once the club was gone, things would go back to normal until ten more years passed, until the next game of demise was inevitably started.
Until this was over, wouldn't get involved. He'd continue on with his hermit lifestyle, safely locked away in his apartment where no demon could get to him.
