The Tragic Truth

I'm Broken

I sat there, blood dripping down my face, "1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1," and so on I would repeat. The pain didn't bother me anymore. I didn't flinch when the men beat me with the tools. I spent my time counting the seconds, minutes, days, and weeks here. After getting bored by the first week, I started counting the ceiling tiles. I finished that in a few hours, so I would move on to the next thing. Three fucking weeks I've been in this hell, I can't believe it. This is just wonderful, fuck!

Sato opened the door of the empty room I was in.

"Knock knock," he said as he pulled up a chair which faced me.

I looked at the floor for what felt like hours. But because of my counting, it was only ten seconds. Sato studied me as I watched the floors every move. 

"Yeah we can stop, he's broken enough if you couldn't tell," Sato smiled after standing up. " I won't be needing you useless pieces of shit anymore," he smiled while he shot the humans in the head. 

BANG BANG BANG!

All three men were lying there lifeless on the ground with a pool of blood around their heads. 

"Tanaka, pick this up," he demanded as the other man did as he wished. "So Hide, if you don't obey this will happen again. Do you understand me?" All of the sudden he got serous, that fake smile thinned by every passing second. I was confused by how fast he could change his facial expressions, in fact I was astonished. As he untied me from the torture chair he signaled Tanaka to hand him the tranquilizer gun. As soon as he finished he backed away with the gun in his hand. I tried to stand up but failed in doing so from sitting there for three weeks with out any kind of movement besides squirming. 

"Here let me help you," Sato helped me out of the empty room and into the main room with a couch, a TV, and a table with maps and guns on it. The sudden thought of "I don't care anymore" raced through my mind.

"So Hide lets chat," he sat down at the table and so  did I. "I'm going to ask you a few questions and I want you to answer them." 

"How did you find out you were an Ajin?" he asked with an intrigued look on his face. 

"I attempted suicide," I felt dead, brain dead that is. I didn't want to move, all I could do was make words come out of my mouth. 

"Oh okay, I see," he hesitated before he opened his mouth again. 

"God I wish it would've worked," I bit my lip as I clenched my fist. "Then I wouldn't have to run away from everything, and to think people actually cared," I started laughing. Sato looked at me with a "what the fuck is going on" look.

"Are you okay," he asked me as I tried standing. 

"Fuck off, I know what you're going to do. You're going to use me and my IBM for one of your plans, and you know what sure, what the hell. I might as well do it because I don't know where anyone is anyway," I was so festered with anger I couldn't stop fucking laughing at the fact these people were so stupid. I struggled keeping my balance, so I sat back down in the chair. 

"Jeeze, well done Hide. I was going to give you a lecture but I guess that's not needed considering you already know it all," Sato started doing a sarcastic clap. "I guess lets go over the plan." 

Sato pointed everything out and what we were supposed to do. 

"I'm going to take Hide out to do some work on his IBM, now let's get a move on, It'll be dark soon."

Sato handed me some new clothes to change into. It was a black shirt and  black hoodie along with a black beanie and black jeans. After changing me and Sato went out to the white car. I sat in the back seat, staring at everything beyond the tinted windows. We got to an abandoned building that was a little outside of Tokyo. All the other structures were abandoned and crumbled to the ground. 

"Here we are, " he pulled up next to the building. After turning off the car he got out and so did I. "So do you know how to summon it?" he asked. I nodded my head looking lifeless, I signaled for the gun and he handed it to me. I held it up to my head and attempted to blow my brains out. As I reset my IBM appeared. 

"I fucking hate everyone," the black figure said as it walked towards Sato. His spawned all of the sudden, he didn't have to die to summon his?! "I guess that's one way to get it to show up," he looked at mine and it's dagger like fingers, "lets fight." His IBM ran towards mine ready to attack the head of my IBM. Mine dodged it, as all this was going I went down to sit against the wall of the building. My IBM hardly was trying to dodge his slow attacks. 

"God stop stalling and finish it already," I said in monotone.

"Jeeze, what a drag," my IBM said as it finished Sato's off. 

"Well damn," Sato said looked at the hunched over being. 

"I don't need you anymore," I said as it disappeared into thin air.

"You've got some skills, ready for Friday?" he asked me.

I nodded, not really showing any kind of interest in anything.

"Good," we went back into the car and drove back to the hide out.

Friday we're going to blow up  the most popular hospital in Tokyo. In five days I'll prove to them all what I really am to them.

Their worst fucking nightmare.
