“Nothing in this world makes sense anymore, things would be so much easier if I just gave up.”
Haruka stood silently, one hand on the door knob that would lead to their room, and while listened to Asuka speak. She waited until the girl finished her speech, but even then Haruka kept quiet, lost in thought. Asuka didn't grow up with her parents but...she had someone that treated her like a daughter, she had people who treated her like she was a part of their family, Haruka never had that, even when she did...Her hand tightened around the door knob while frowning. Asuka was a good friend, and it was sad to see how much she had struggled through life, it was clear in the other girls eyes, the pain of her mother leaving her with other people, but Haruka didn't address it, she would later, but not now."Thank you, Asuka, I...I'm not scared of you, or any of the...Vampires...at the Academy. I'm not scared." She turned her head ever so slightly and smiled at the other girl, before she made up her mind, and twisted the door handle. It creaked, and then suddenly with a large gust of wind, the door swung open and hit the wall with a loud smack.
Her breath hitched while her eyes widened. The air pushed out of her lungs as her mouth fell open into a silent scream. The room was perfect, nothing was out of place...except for the two freshly burnt corpses that lay on the bed, side by side. The red haired girl stumbled numbly into the room, the strong scents of burnt flesh filled her nose and made bile raise in her throat. Jumbled thoughts ran into each other in her head, but one thought stood out the most through.
It's them.
It wasn't proven, it couldn't be, but it was the only thing her mind could process. Her knees gave out, slamming into the ground as cold tears fell down her face. None of this made sense, why would their be two burnt corpses on her parents bed in their room? Why did the room look as if it hadn't been touched by the fire at all, even the bed looked perfect, but the bodies, the smell the memories that flashed through her head. She didn't understand, nothing made sense, what was this?! Her body was taken over by numbness, and she fell forward, hitting the wooden floor with a thump. She couldn't move, she could barely breath, as she could do was stare straight ahead as tears rolled down her face and into the ground. Haruka felt like her body wasn't in her control anymore, all she could do was breath and blink the tears away, but inside she was scream, screaming and screaming and screaming, clawing at her eyes to get the image of those burnt corpse out of her memory.
She opened her mouth, trying to ask Asuka for help, trying to bed her to do something, anything, but nothing came out, only a strangled noise that sounded like a cry of pain and a battle cry all in one. And then, we world went black. But the corpse had been branded into her eyelid's, even in the darkness, she could see them.
I'm broken...
