1st P.O.V

I stepped in the dungeon of my death for him to live. I know I'm a fool for loving him despite what he said, what he had done, but I don't care because my heart beats for him. My eyes looked at the couch, there sat Nakayama Ami someone also known as Murakami Ichika. My heels hit the floor, why was time so slow? Why could I hear the water droplet that dropped from the faucet? Why could I hear my heart beat that I barely hear? Why did the clock' hand move so slow? Sitting across her with my legs cross I kept a calm face.

"Just handover the notebook Ami, it's that easy." Her eyes didn't falter, she didn't want the give the notebook, I knew it from the very beginning. Why does everyone want to go the hard way? Why do you guys want violence? Why does everyone want blood? These questions I asked myself knowing I couldn't find an answer to. I don't understand people, why do they want violence?

"Hand it over Ami, in this way everyone can live a happy ending." Her eyes went crazy, I could see the moment she lost her cool. I betted my whole life on this deal, I knew it anyways, I knew that having a peace talk wouldn't work. Then why am I? Why am I still hoping for it? My brothers always said I had the kindest heart, they said I hoped for things that wouldn't happen, they said that I forgive people too easily. Maybe that's just who I am, I just want to see people smile. I want to see everyone live happily.

"Happy ending? DON'T FUCK WITH ME Y/N! Happy ending? That's bullshit! You people took everything away from us, the great L/n family, the family with so much power a click of their fingers goes everything their way. YOU PEOPLE ARE THE REASON WHY ALL OF MY FAMILY IS DEAD." I couldn't believe what she said, she didn't have any right to say that at all. Assassins kill people no matter how kind they are, they do it for the money, people who don't hesitate to kill someone just because of money. So where did she get the right to say that?

"Assassins... your whole family line's an assassin. You people disgust me, if you hadn't lost your gamble to that man back then you guys wouldn't have been in such misery. Your ancestor betted his whole family just for the sake of money!" I paused needing to take breath while looking at her with such despise. "If you people didn't kill others or have fought back to them then maybe THEN MAYBE PEOPLE WHO YOUR FAMILY KILLED WOULD HAVE BEEN ALIVED BY NOW!" Why couldn't they understand what they did? Why couldn't they blame their own ancestor? Why do they blame their despair to people who aren't even involved? Why can't they endure the pain the caused? Innocent people died because of them, even kids who weren't involved.

"MY DAD WAS ALL I HAD AND YOU TOOK HIM AWAY FROM ME! HE WAS BEHEADED RIGHT BEFORE MY EYES! IF I HADN'T ESCAPED I WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN HERE RIGHT NOW!" She fused, her anger that she pent up for years, she yelled at me like there was no other in the room. Her anger wasn't only directed me but even people who weren't involved like my family. They were never truly involved in the situation, it was only me as I was father's successor.

"I'm sorry Tō-san for I cannot give this girl a slow and painful death!" She pulled out a gun aiming it at my head. A second late, even if it is just for a moment everything could go wrong. I stood out from the couch grabbing the gun that hid behind the pillow. We pulled the triggers, aiming at each other's heart. I could see the bullet shoot slowly, I could see the pressure that fired it. I saw how the journal slowly dropped from her hands. We both fell on the floor, but which one of us will survive? Neither?

"Sorry Atsumu, I broke our promise again." I closed my eyes but fought it by blinking, I could see the the police and military men enter but I could only see their shoes. I closed my eyes, please help Ami. She's been in too much pain, I saw her pain, a pain that's way too unbearable. She was forced into this, she didn't want to kill people, she just wanted to live happily with her dad. She loathed our family because we knew the truth about the Nakayami blood line, but please save her from her self.

Lycoris a flower also known as Spider Lily, a flower with such beautiful red. The crimson color that blooms under the sun. Farewell is what it represents, reincarnation is what the flower also represents. So in another life, let's meet again, where there's no agony, no broken promises, just us under the sun laying on the green grass. Let's meet in a better world where we can be who we want, where's there's no barrier that separates us, if we're not meant to be then promise me, that we'll change the red strings of fate. Let's meet without my hands stained blood. Let's meet and live an extraordinary life. I'll wait for you even if it's a million years, just promise we'll see each other again.

Let's hold hands while we walk. Let's watch the night sky. Let's watch the birds fly. Let's walk on the sand while looking at the sun and the beach. Let's promise each other to be there for one another. Let's comfort each other when we're down. Let me be the one who'll wear the white gown, the girl in white that will whole the roses while I walk down the altar. Let's promise to love each other till we die. Let's keep our vows. Let's have a family, children that run around the house.

Can you promise me that?

Can we promise each other to find one another in our next life? Can we promise each other not to hurt one another in our next life? Can we promise each other that we will be better person in our next life? Can we promise each other to help one another in each other's problems in our next life? Can we promise to love each other? Can we promise each other to be stay on each other's side despite the hard times in our next life?

We can, can we?

I promise I'll be a better person Atsumu, someone who truly deserves you. I'm sorry, I left you alone.
