Bathing in your own sweats and blood is never been a good idea, but recently. I often see myself soaking in blood.
'All I know... I am in pain.'
Terrible and horrible pain. Is there another word to describe the pain?
'Oh yeah... hell.'
Seeing my own blood that slowly expanding on the floor and my own swelling body which is covered with bruises. I don't think any normal person would still be sane after experiencing this kind of torture. I am surprised, I am still breathing and alive.
'Should I be happy, knowing I am still alive? While being dead is much easier than being alive.'
My sight blurs. How many times I cried. But I think that the least I could do while accepting this dreadful inhumane fate. Being a dinner of a ghoul tonight.
Suddenly, I heard footsteps approaching. Cold air instantly passed by on my body and I think my heart stops beating.
'Too much for a self-pity? Aren't you tired of crying? But to be honest I won't stop you by doing so. Cause it tingles every nerve in my body'
It looks like he is in so much ecstasy while inhaling my blood on the surface. He is laughing like a crazy clown and hugging his jerking body as if he is fighting back his own self.
'I never thought this disgusting place would smell so wonderful for the first time.'
My breathing comes faster and so that my heartbeat. I am trembling in my chair, shaking my head in disagreement while watching his slow transformation into a ghoul.
'Someone! Stop this monster! Help me!'
Screaming my lungs out but the more I scream the more his laughter gets louder.
'Don't insult your own kind kaneki. Have you forgotten? Rize is in you and though it just half, it doesn't mean you still human that you used to be. You are a ghoul, like me. Like Rize.'
'N-no! No! I wasn't a monster like---'
It was just a split second when his tail expands towards me before it turned it back to him.
'I wouldn't be able to cut your toes once again if you're human.'
I saw when he swallows my toes and I can't help to imagine myself being swallowed by him next.
'You know what, it's so fun to do it over and over again.'
I am in delirium state of hell while he is in delirium state of happiness. I couldn't fathom the pain. I know I am screaming while he jubilantly cutting my body into pieces. But through all this, I can't hear my own screams.
'Why won't somebody come and save me from this? Make it end!'
'Break me free and save yourself'
'Who's that--'
Wait. That voice, I know that voice.
'Rize!'
'I missed you too, darling'
'You! Put me in here!'
'Then, let me do the honours to take you away from here... Accept me my dear'
'No... No! Accepting you means, accept being monster! You are the monster! not me!'
'Alright, let that hideous monster devours us together like what they did to your friend... But my dear, hunger doesn't stop even if you are inside his belly. Ghoul hunger always continues to find another prey and it never ends.'
'But--'
'Who knows, maybe his next meal will be one of your friends'
'No!'
'Then, accept me! Break me free kaneki!'
* * *
He isn't screaming anymore, doesn't move either. Was he dead?
However, I noticed the colour of his hair that changes to white. But who cares, it will be the same inside my stomach.
Wiping my drooling lips while approaching my meal, I can't wait to devour his heavenly taste. But, before I even touch him, he disappears.
'Disgusting'
I found him standing not far behind me. Then he spits and throws something on the ground. I examine the thing and it's quite familiar.
'Was that--'
I suddenly fell on the ground and found myself bleeding without a right leg.
'W-was that my leg!'
'Stop asking the obvious'
'You brat--'
He pins me on the ground, I will admit he is fast but I'm not an easy prey, I use my tail to twist his legs.
'You think you would kill me--'
'I told you, stop asking the obvious'
His twisted leg turned back to normal and with his tail, he cut my other leg. Now I am the one screaming in pain.
'I must confess that I feel like a monster...'
He is crying again like a child. Pathetic. This is his only chance but this kid is too idiot to waste it!
'Kaneki---'
I was cut off when his tail cut my both arms, then his eyes sharpen and his voice doubles.
'But in the end, it doesn't even matter'
