"KILL ME, DAMMIT!" I could only hear Kaito-nii yell at me as grabbed my hand and placed the knife on his abdomen, "(Y/N)! DO IT!"

I closed my eyes before shaking my head, pulling my hand away from him — i don't want to kill Kaito-nii, he's my brother, he's the only family. Of course, I'd never hurt him. Never.

"NO! I DON'T WANT TO!" you yelled back as your tears continually fell from your eyes, "I...I don't want to lose you too, Kaito-nii."

Kaito-nii's face ashen as soon as he saw me crying, his hands were trembling and this is also hard for him. He doesn't want to hurt me, and he also wants to be free.

We were thorned.

Both of us knew that we should choose or else the both of us will get killed. The crowd began to complain about how the match isn't starting and all, but it didn't matter to me nor to Kaito-nii.

"I want you to live, (y/n).." I heard Kaito-nii muttered, my eyes widened after seeing him place the rusty knife on his neck, "You have a future ahead of you. I promised you that I will save you from this hellhole, right? So...please...live for me."

The crowd statrted to applaud again as they witnessed something interesting. A big brother who's willing to die for his little sister, and a little sister who doesn't want to kill her big brother.

My heart skipped a beat. I immediately thought of the things I can still do with Kaito-nii, we can still live together!

I remembered how I grabbed Kaito-nii's hand away from his neck and yanking him on the floor. He grunted as his back fell on the ground. It was the only way to stop him from killing himself.

I smacked him in the face before yelling, "I'M NOT GOING TO LET YOU DIE, DAMMIT!" that was the first time I have ever hit my brother.

"THEN IF I DON'T, BOTH OF US WILL!" he tried to make me understand that but even if I do get what he meant, I was too young and naive to accept that. I was desperately clinging on that single hope in my heart that we can still live and escape together.

And thus, my naive and young self had come to cling again on that senseless hope of mine.

I want to live.
I want to live with Kaito-nii.
I don't care if I lose a limb or two.
As long as Kaito-nii can live.

I want to be Kaito-nii's hero, too.

I grabbed Kaito-nii's collar and leaned towards his ears to whisper, "Listen. We're going to leave this place together. We're going to fool the shit outta them, you hear me?"

His eyes looked at me with confusion but after a few seconds his lios formed into a grin, "We just gotta fool them, right?"

"Yeah. So stay alive, stupid brother. We're going to fuck them up so bad that they'll regret putting us in this place." you said as you grabbed the rusty knife from the floor, standing away from Kaito-nii.

He slowly nodded at me, almost telling me that he already knows what I am going to do. And without hesitation, I took the knife and stabbed my abdomen, making me immediately fall on the ground as the immense pain pummeled into my skin.
