Angel Wings (Deadman Wonderland fanfic)

Chapter 2 - Guilty

Katsumi stirred. Her body felt all achy and in need of a hot shower. What happened? Had she finally gotten so drunk that she blacked out. That would be a first for. It was more of Maiko's area. Slowly opening her eyes to a white room Katsumi tried to sit up. But she found it impossible as she was tied down. 

Where was Maiko? Where was she? Why was she tied down? Endless questions were going thought her mind. Suddenly she heard a noise and turned to see two men entering the room along with a woman that looked like a nurse. 'What's going on?' Katsumi asked with a shaky voice. 'Don't you remember?' The first man asked. Carrying  a grim expression on his face.

Katsumi shook her head. All she could remember was getting ready for the party with Maiko. Which was still in their house. 'Wheres my sister?' This time she demanded instead of asking. Katsumi had no idea what the hell was going on but she knew whatever it was it was going to be easier with Maiko by her side.

The other man looked Katsumi straight in the eye. 'You murdered her, along with everyone else at that party.' He said in a calm but angry voice. At first the mans words didn't register in Katsumi's mind. Murdered? That had to be some kind of prank. She couldn't hurt anyone. Especially not Maiko.

'Where's Maiko?' She demanded again. Her sister was not dead, she couldn't be. The two men looked at each other and nodded. The first man opened his brief case taking out some papers out of it.  What were they doing?

He walked closer holding the papers in front of Katsumi. Katsumi stared at them with wide eyes. These weren't papers... They were pictures. Pictures of Maiko's body, or more accurately parts.

'No.' Katsumi whispered under her breath. 'They not real.' She said louder this time. That moment the second man snapped. 'You killed her you monster! Just like everyone else there. So stop acting all innocent and confess!' The first man man grabbed the second man and started dragging him out the door. The same moment the nurse run up to Katsumi and stuck a needle in her arm. Before Katsumi realized  what was going on she blacked out.

*2 days later*

It was over. Katsumi lost everything. Her sister, her mother and her freedom. At just 16 Katsumi was sentenced on a death row at Deadmans Wonderland in Tokyo. 

She didn't understand why everyone believed that she did it. There wasn't even enough evidence to point out that she done it, yet they still announced her guilty. Not that she cared anymore. Finding out Maiko was dead was like a stake though her heart. And then her mother calling her a monster... Katsumi tried not to think about it. She was done.

Somehow she went from the popular girl in school to a psychopathic murderer that slaughtered people, including her own sister.  When Katsumi wasn't ever sure if she was capable of taking a human life. No matter, none of that mattered anymore. It's not like she had a choice of what happened from now. She was on death row, it's not like she was going to live that much longer.

Katsumi felt the van that she was in stop. She looked up to the guard that was sitting in front of her. On cue the door burst open and two wonderland guards grabbed her, roughly pulling her out of the van. 

She couldn't see that much. It was like they were in an underground tunnel. There were more than just 2 guard, there were 3 more waiting outside. 'Welcome to Deadmans Wonderland!' Suddenly a voice boomed. The voice sounded familiar, like she heard it not long ago. These past 2 days were a blur but she knew she heard it not long ago. 

When she saw him, walking... no, almost skipping towards her was Tsunenaga Tamaki. Or as she came to know him, her useless lawyer. 'You!' She felt anger build up. The two guards tightened their grip on her. 'Now now my dear tanger, we don't want any violence... For now.' He said, smiling so big Cheshire cat would be jealous.
