And I See You Again

Again. . .

"Oi, give me what you have." the thug says while reaching out his dirty arm towards me, grinning. "Ugh. ." I grunted. Why is it always like this? I need to find the way to her.

My lo–

*CLANG!*

The one with the bat hit the metal bat on the wall, causing their 'weapon' for scaring people emit a very unpleasant sound. The sound was very eerie, it rang too much inside my ears, though they enjoyed my expression as I covered my ears and grit my teeth to prevent my ear drums from breaking. However, it did almost nothing. It was so loud, my hearing stopped for a moment– no. Minutes.

Before I knew it, I knelt on the floor during that session of eerie sounds. The thugs laughed and got closer to me, and started kicking as they laughed and demanded money, or anything precious that can be useful. Seriously, are they deaf?

"AGHH––!!!" I yelled in pain as their hard footwear collided with my stomach, it made me cough out blood.

They laughed in mischief the more I scream in pain and agony, feasting on the sight of my suffering. I coughed out more blood, my sight became blurry, my hearing now can only sense inaudible sounds. Few moments later, I felt myself numb for the first time. They kept on banging things on me, punching and kicking various parts on my body. It felt too painful. Am I gonna die here?

"HALT!!!" A voice not from afar screamed. 'huh?' I tried my best to open my beat eyes, doing all I can to somehow remove the blur in my eyes. When I finally get to regain my sight, a green haired person stood in front of the thugs, standing mighty atop those thugs. "Are you okay, sir?" they asks.

That's when I realized–what was speaking to me was of the opposite sex. She indeed has a deep voice, but the feminism in her voice and tone is hard not to notice. "O-oi!!" I heard her frantically call out to me before fully going unconcious.

I'm dead? Again? Hah. . . So weak.

*****

"Oh. You're awake." a quite familiar voice said as I lied on a bed–I believe.– while I endured the growing pain on my head, though the sheets and pillows are soft and comfy. I groaned and touched my head as I slowly brought myself to sit, and was later helped by the green-haired lady by supporting me on my back to maintain my balance. I looked up at her and almost jumped in surprise–"T-t-t-too close!!!", I shouted. She seemed displeased so she backed away a little, but never loosened her grip. I'm thankful to her for doing that, since my eyes and ears started to hurt as well. "T-thank. . . You. . ."

Once I fully regained my balance, she let go of me and I finally had the chance to take a clearer and longer look at her face, and I recognized. . . "Crusch-san?" I unconsciously spat out.

"What?" she asked. "Uh, oh. . Uh. . Nothing!" I denied the truth that she may have heard what I said and kept quiet on my seat, fidgeting my fingers because of my awkward situation.

*creak*

The door opens and reveals a a brunette with fox ears–or something like that. "Hello, Crusch-sama. Hello there, patient-kun~" she greets as soon as she closed the door, making her way to the bedside's table as she carried a tray of food. "Hello, Felix." Crusch-san greets back. "So, what's your name, again?" Crusch-san, on her table, asks me. "Y/N Y/S." I answered. She wrote it down on a paper. "I see. Y/N-kun, do you have any relatives around here?" she asks, once again. I was hesitant on what to answer at first but. .

". . . I left home."

*clack*

"What a brave young man you are." the lady named Felix said as she put down the tray and passed me a bowl of soup. I held it on my hand, which seemed to tremble. A few seconds later, the trembling stopped. I took a spoonful of soup to my mouth. "Hmm... Delicious!" I cheerfully blurted out, I almost seemed like a fool. But I am.

Now that I look carefully at my hands, it has bandages. Even in my face, especially on the other side of my cheek, it hurts. "I'm glad you can eat with all those wounds on your face. You're even cheerful, what a relief." Crusch-san stated, putting her pen down the table."Hmhm. Thank you, Crusch-san. And Felix, is it? Thank you, too." I gratefully bow my head to them.

"You're welcome." they said in sync.

Hello, everyone!!

Sebasnyanchi here OwO

Okay, so I watched "The amount of shit Subaru went through"-one of khoranime's videos and I WAS REALLY SHOCKED cuz I can't believe that the thugs are actually three, and that THERE ARE THUGS believe me, the only parts I have only watched are few and also very dark. I didn't know Subaru was beaten up (and I have been writing this chap a day before I watched the vid) and fought a knight in the colosseum. Really, I pity him.

WE'RE OPEN FOR Q&A, PEOPLE!!

AND THANK YOU FOR THE 2.8 K VIEWS!!!! really, I didn't expect my very first x reader to be this famous xDDD

Have a MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

LUV Y'ALL
