Lucid Memories

Chapter 14

1st Person POV

My eyes started to tear up in rage. At this point, I don't know what's going on and how it evolved to this extent. What just happened...?

I watch Chuuya fly by my vision and hit the jail bars. I turned my heel and raced towards him. My vision was blurry as I tried to wipe away every tear with my arm. Blood slowly flowing down from his face. There was most likely some internal damage from his spine and back muscles that weren't too obvious but I didn't focus on. My eyes could only reflect the dying state of my brother in front of me. Why...?!

I cried out for him in anger. How could I let this happen? I didn't do anything wrong, so why! I grind my teeth, barely sawing them away.

I could hear hiccups from beside me. I turn to see Dazai crying as well. "...if I was only stronger..."

I froze when I heard those words. There was a way to fix it. I yelled in anger, "KIN!!"

I heard him hurrying towards me. I think he finally understood why everyone was scared of me now. I turn around, rage filling my senses. "I want you to take Chuuya and Dazai to the doctors' office. Now."

The quiet and rage boiling anger was reaching it's limits. "What about you [Name]-chan?! You need some—"

I turn back to Dazai, watching his face froze in fear this time. I could see the reflection of a monster standing in front of him. A memory of the late sister he saw in me. All gone as quick as a second. I couldn't help but tear up. "Don't make me repeat myself Kin."

The room was quiet for a second as I heard him grit his teeth. He scooped up Chuuya and Dazai in his arms and booked it out of the cell. I sighed, praying that Chuuya would be safe. "For the rest of you shitty guards, killed the rest of the prisoners in this room. I'll be waiting outside."

The guards froze. They looked at each other, questioning themselves and me. They need to validate why? It wasn't a command from a higher-up, just a kid. All but one knew that they should listen. The prisoners were angry now. Why did you all of a sudden change? Why did everyone have to be killed? Why should the guards listen to you and how did you obtain such power?

"Who are you to—" The man was cut of as the only one who knew stabbed the man. An older man with a few scars all over his face and arms from what I could see. He looked like an former military member. It scared me. What pressure... "Understood."

I watch the slaughter beginning other side the jail cell. Someone's blood splattered on my outfit from outside as I moved a little away from the cage. However blood still managed to fly towards me. It easily slid down from my forehead and accumulated at my cheek.

I knew I couldn't run from this fate. All I could do now is watch both woman and man scream and curse at me as if they could sent a demon after me. I grinned, smudging the stray blood splatter across my face—wiping it was my initial reason but of course, blood itself is a messy liquid. You deserve it.

I found the cell lock and locked the rest in. I saw most of them turn around in fear. They were all locked inside with those hypocrites. "Now kill each other, the last one will be free."

I was soon signalled by that same man from before, if I remember—his name was Fukuchi. I knew he would be the last to survive and I have a feeling he knew it as well. You all do, you all deserve it.
