Chapter 4
It was the 16th, the day of the anniversary. The day my life finally turned into the shit hole that it is now. My mother was killed the day before by the creature Cell. I didn’t know he was there. If I had, if things were different, she’d still be here. I could have stopped him! He destroyed her before I got back. When I got there, I destroyed him. He was laughing at me as I killed him. When I got back into the house, I found out why. I saw my mothers’ body. He didn’t drain her energy. That wouldn’t have hurt me the same way. No, he stabbed her through the heart.
I saw her body, sitting in an armchair as if she was just watching the television. There was a cup of coffee on the table next to her, and she had a newspaper sitting with her reading glasses there too. She had a shocked expression on her face and there was a single tear running down her cheek. I stumble backwards until I hit the wall and slid down it. I sat there all day and through the night, just… Watching. Expecting her to just stand up and say it was just some cruel joke. But she didn’t move, and she wasn’t going to. I couldn’t feel her life energy anymore. I knew she was gone.
The sun rose the next day, causing a bright light to penetrate it’s way into the lounge. It seemed wrong, considering what had happened the day before. I eventually tore my gaze away from her body and stood up. I headed upstairs and went into my mothers’ bedroom where I got her a change of clothes from her wardrobe. I then went to the bathroom to collect some bandages and a cloth. I went back downstairs with the items and headed to the lounge. The smell of blood was in the air as I placed the items down on the floor next to my mothers’ body. Going to the kitchen, I filled a bowl with water and headed back. I couldn’t look at my mothers face anymore so I covered it with her jacket. I grabbed some scissors from the kitchen and cut her clothes off, the blood making them cling to her body. I then proceeded to clean her up, bandage her, and change her clothes. After I’d finished, I cleaned up the mess and went outside.
The back yard was home to the graves of all the others that had been lost over the past 18 years. Since the explosion while I was away, the number of graves had increased. All the others had died when Kamesenin house fell on them after an attack. My grandparents had both died a few weeks ago due to old age. My mother was the only one I had left. But now she’s gone! I stood there, looking at the graves for a few minutes before setting about doing what I went there for. To the side of my fathers’ grave, I began to dig a new hole. I could have blasted a hole, but to me, it meant more to dig one myself. After I’d finished, I went to the storage room and collected my mothers coffin. It’s weird! After the rest of the Z squad was destroyed, mother had coffins made for everyone. I guess she didn’t have much faith in Gohan and me. No, that’s wrong! She had faith in me! She never made me a coffin. She obviously expected me to make it! I guess she was right, but I don’t know how much longer!
Going back inside, I opened the coffin and placed my mothers corpse inside. After that, I took it outside and buried it. I couldn’t stand it there any more. I had to go! But I first grabbed the scissors that I’d used for my mother. Then, I flew off, not caring where I ended up! I hated this existence. It felt surreal. I couldn’t tell weather this pain I was feeling was real so I wanted to feel a pain I was in control of. I cut. I cut while I flew. I flew until I had no power left to fly. I bleed until I was sick. I cried until I collapsed. Landing, I found myself in the slums of an old ruined city. Well, I didn’t exactly land, more plummeted downwards. I must’ve been noticed because when I eventually got back up, I found myself on a bed indoors. Turning my head, I noticed a figure in the dark. The figure turned out to be Sengen, the sister of Kagutsuchi, the one who found me. The rest was a blur. All I remember is being told of another way to numb the pain, Flame! Like a coward, I took it, and I kept taking it for months. It helped for a while, but my body needed more. My body wasn’t craving for more of the drug; it was craving to feel more. More of the environment, more of my surroundings, more! I eventually found out the ‘more’ that I wanted. She didn’t like the fact I’d introduced myself as Iki-Ryo, but she carried on as if I’d given her a different name. The name, it’s the truth. All I do is harm those around me. Despite that, she wouldn’t leave me. I guess she thought that I’d change after it happened. I didn’t! Despite that, they didn’t abandon me. They couldn’t, my business was too important to them I guess. Thanks to my mother, I could afford to be their number one customer.
The last time I went to see Suchi, Sengen cornered me. She asked me a question that I still can’t answer fully! Why do I do this? I doubt I’ll ever have an answer to that. In a way, I do it so I can feel alive, even though I’m already dead inside. I couldn’t tell her that, but she wanted an answer. That’s when I decided to finish it all. I think she knew what I was planning. She knew about the journeys I’d taken through time. I don’t remember how she knew, but she did. She told me to go back there and talk to someone. Well, Sengen, I’ve taken your advice. Now what?
Authors Note: Hey, my first A/N for this fic! Anyway, I'll keep it short.
Just for anyone who want's to know, the names used in this chapter are based on Japanese Mythology. <As I remember> Kagutsuchi was the God of Fire. Sengen was the Blossom Princess. And Iki-Ryo was the harmful spirit of anger and envy.
Anyway, enjoy, and Please Review!!! CC is loved! XD
