Chapter 3: Sakae's pov
____
Morning arose once more, this time I was the first to wake up. I slowly got out of bed incase Akuma is a light sleeper. Wait- he woke up...
"You thought you were gonna seek out, didn't you?" His blanket was covering his mouth as he talked. "Ohayou, Saka-chan."
"Feel any better?" I asked.
"No, in fact I feel worse." He got up and coughed.
"What's on your chest?"
The center of his bare chest had red Kanji and hiragana symbols: 地獄は近いです。
"What?" He looked at the mirror and read it aloud, "Jigoku ha chikaidesu." Hell is near. He chuckled.
"What does that mean?" I worried.
"It means I'm going back to hell soon. And when I go there, I will have enough powers to complete my mission." He coughed again.
"W-what mission?"
"To bring hell onto earth." He chuckled again.
"But, you're gonna die again and I'm gonna take my powers back."
"That only works if you have no powers what-so-ever. You have very little powers now." He stuck out his tongue. "It looks like I won."
I spoke over his coughing. "I thought you was supposed to kill me!"
"I had to change plans since I'm dying. I'm probably gonna choke on blood once again, but whatever." Humming a song, he left the room.
Why do I have to live when he's planning on bringing hell to earth?
***
Throughout the day, Akuma's illness took a worse toll; his eye color changed from a glowy scarlet to mahogany, he lost much desire to kill so he's just torching people, and he has been in the same clothes all day. Yes, it's rare for him to stay in the same clothes for more than 3 hours.
What did I do this whole time? I actually killed people today; 2 demons, a dragon, and 5 angels. Akuma's right, it is fun to kill...
"Sakae!" Akuma yelled. "Stop daydreaming and kill more."
I was in my second form at this time, "Who is there to kill?"
"Just kill the prisoners, there's no use of them any more." Akuma walked away. "Oh, and they're demon children so make them suffer."
Childeren? I made my way down into the dungeon and saw 10 little childeren feasting on a huge rat. Once one saw me, they ran to the bars and held out their hands.
They begged for food, water, and freedom, "Please! Free us! Free us! Free us! We're hungry! Thirsty! Please, beautiful nymph! Please!"
I just couldn't kill them, they were too innocent. "I'm sorry that I ever came here..." My good instincts told me to try to help them. I created a sword and cut the bars. But who cares about a bunch of demons, they might end up like Akuma anyways. I stepped inside and stabbed the smallest one.
The demons gasped. "Impure nymph! Run!"
They tried to run away, but I killed them all at once chanting "Die! Die!" as I chuckled madly.
"Well, well... I never knew the nicest girl who I met turned out evil as my son." I turned around and saw Kasai leaning on the door.
"Don't you have kingly stuff to do?"
"Mm, no. Not really. I just came to check on you guys." He walked towards me, "Seems like you upgraded your second form, I can't see your chest anymore." He pouted.
I rolled my eyes.
"Sakae..." He held back his hand and slapped me across the face. He slapped me so hard that I hit my head on the medal bars.
"Ouch! What the f**k was that for?!" I rubbed my head and got back up and made a sword. "You're gonna wish-"
"You would kill me for slapping you? I thought you considered me as your best friend."
"What?" I dropped the sword and realized what I was doing. Who- no- what am I changing into?
"You're just falling into Akuma's plan."
"I'm not! This is the way I react to selfish people like you destroying my life!" I started to tear up. "You knew that Akuma was gonna kill Hiryu and you didn't even try to prevent it! You didn't do sh*t-"
"Enough!" That was the first time I heard Kasai raise his voice at me. "I can't prevent anything when I don't know what's going to happen!" He calmed his voice, "Now, are you going to come with me or take your own path? "
Is that even a real option? Either way I'm gonna end up without Hiryu, but maybe Kasai can help me fix this mess...
"I'll pick you up tomorrow." He said reading my thoughts. "Don't kill anyone when I'm gone. If you do, you'll probably won't change back," and like that, he left.
***
As I returned to my room, I found Akuma sleeping in the bed. "Akuma?" I tapped on his shoulder.
No answer. He's usually a light sleeper like a dog, but this time he didn't even open his eye.
Is he so ill that he can't wake up? I grinned. That's fantastic!
I locked the door and transformed.
"Saka-chan~" I heard Akuma say in my head. "I can't talk right now since my stupid body had to collapse from vomiting blood. Anyways, just kill me, here and now."
"No, I want you to suffer." I said out loud.
"Don't be such a b*tch and kill me already!"
"Why should I?"
"Hmm, I don't know. I kinda murdered everyone you loved." I saw him smile in his sleep when he laughed. "Stupid goddess, you don't even know how to protect your love ones. It's all your fault they died in my hands!"
"Shut up!" I created a sword. "It's not my fault that I'm a f*cking goddess nmph, okay!" The sword punctured within his heart. "Leave your a** in hell!"
His eyes immediately opened widely, teeth barring before he coughed up blood, and sticking out his tongue, grinning he left this world.
I took the sword out if his body and kicked him off the bed and breathed heavily. "F*cking sh*ty a** devil."
