“What is perfection? What is trust..? What is Humanity? Is there any hope for Humanity? No...? How sad...”
Everything is dark...why is everything dark...? I'm being carried....? Why? Where are we going? Is it Mother and Father? Have they come back for me at last...no..that's such wishful thinking....What is that sound..? IS that a...a voice? What dose it sound so familiar? Why....
"The perfect being...? There is no such thing as perfect in this world. Now I know, that may sound so cliche to your little mind, Haruka, But it is the truth. The average human admires perfection and seeks to obtain it...but is there a point to achieving perfection? There is none."
I know this voice..from where? Where are we going..? Why dose my neck hurt...why..? Is this a..a memory?
"None at all...if something is perfect, then there is nothing left..there is no room for imagination, for space for a person to gain additional knowledge and skills....When did humanity all forsake themselves? Unable to trust one another, if that is this world...if that is what being human is, there is no future for humanity."
Why....? Why is he talking about this? Why to me? Is he blaming Humanity for all of the faults in the world? I don't understand...why is he...who is he?!
"People live their lives by what they see as 'Right' and 'True' that is what they call 'Reality'."
What is reality..? Is this reality..??
"However..'Right' and 'True' are nothing but vague terms. Their 'Reality' could turn out to be an illusion, and then what would they all do? Everyone lives by their own assumptions, reasons exist only for those who need reason's to rely on, so shall we go? To the end of all reasons?"
Haruka felt her body move as what ever was holding her up dropped. Her back hit the ground with a loud thud and she cried out, pain erupting through her spin as a heavy weight fell upon her body and something sharp cut into her neck. She could feel the blood being drained from her small body..and she was horrified.
The pain only lasted for a second before the person on top of her lifted himself up so he could look at her face. Her sight had returned and now she was staring up at the glowing red eyes of the man she had thought to be her Uncle. Blood dripped down her chin and landed on her cheek as she stared up with wide blue, tear rimmed eyes.
"There can be no happiness in a world that eliminates people they deem unnecessary. Someday you will change this world, little Haruka, those of you willing to fight for freedom will find the way...but not today."
The man dipped his head back down towards her neck to finish the small girl off, but a voice cut through the air, stopping him dead in his tracks.
"So who decides what is right and what is wrong? 'Reality' you say... How did you learn of the 'Reality' you speak of? The world is governed by the reasoning of corrupt beings, we're able to obscure reality through our obsessions. We've never been shown what 'Reality' actually is, now have we? The reality you believe in is most likely half-baked nonsense. Trying to understand reality, and explain it to another being is like adding two pieces to a puzzle that don't fit."
The man stood up, leaving Haru on the ground and he turned to face the woman with snow white hair and pale skin. Something changed in his stance, it was almost as if he were...scared of the woman.
"If you want to understand Reality, it's actually quite simple. The 'Reality' of things, of the world, is that very fact that each being only does things to benefit themselves, no one ever does anything to help another being, you can take that however you wish..but this, this is the reality of the world."
The woman's eyes flicked over to the small red haired girl for a moment, before she turned back towards the man, and moved being any of them could blink, her hand diving through his throat, but the small human girl didn't stick around to see what happened next as crimson red blood sprayed out and stained the girls white dress, she jumped up and took off running, down the hall, down the stairs, out of the the old creepy house, and into the dark woods. her neck was bleeding, along with the cut she had on her hand, from before she was attack, and the scrape on her knee from after.
The girl was gasping for breath as she ran until her legs couldn't carry her any further, and they gave out under her, leaving her on the dirty ground as she sobbed helplessly. Suddenly there was a snap of a twig, and when the small girl looked up she met a pair of golden eyes. The woman stepped out towards the girl and crouched beside her, frowning.
"Why are you out here all alone little one?"The woman asked making the little girl look up. She sniffed and rubbed her eyes before speaking. "I don't know...I'm scared.." She little girl looked up with more tears in her eyes, and the woman's frowned deepened and easily pulled the girl into a gentle hug. The girl felt safe and at home, and as her tears dried and her eyes shut, the woman stood up, carrying her away from the woods while murmuring soft words. "Don't worry little one, I wont let you stay lost.." However, the girl missed the smirked that tugged on the woman's lips as she walked away with the girl in her arms.
Haruka woke up with a jerk as she let out a small scream. Memories...she hated memories.
