//Against the Pain//
"Oniisama…" Faint whispers tainted the silence. The child shivered as icy air prickled her. He was weakening…and she was no different. Only it was worse…far worse.
Her artificial eyes studied the darkness. Useless…no one will come. Strands of blonde hair flapped helplessly against the evening wind. The process itself was no different from soundless feathers. She could question as much as she liked…only her response would always be silence.
I'm scared…The girl bit into her lips to resist the urge of speaking. Perhaps she should have returned to her animal form. Only, she was afraid of doing so. Being human held security…so much more of it…
"Kazusa? What are you doing in here?"
She glanced up at the boy. It was only him—her brother. "Oniisama…" The words were barely audible. Her strength was draining…rapidly…
He eyed her form. "You transformed?"
"I—"Yet another breath sucked away for nothing. She buried her face in her clothes out of shame. "….scared…" Muffled pieces of her voice escaped into the air. Every word was still choked with weakness.
A sigh responded to her fears. "…Kazusa…you're just as troublesome as they are…"
It was warm…
His hand stroked her head. The sensation was calming even if it was only for a short moment. His hand was as warm as his presence…not like her. She wished for it to continue…but no, everything comes to an ends.
That meant her end as well.
"…Oniisama…" Her voice was raspy as she struggled to summon words. The girl choked on her own blood. All of it was painful…speaking…breathing…existing.
It was a matter of time before the last pieces of her life disappeared. "Sorry…" Her body limped as her strength was drained from her.
Even after death, they wouldn't know her. Only few people acknowledged her existence. It wasn't their fault…it was simply her own. Once she was called her a toy, and that was no lie; she was a toy of kamika just as everyone else was.
And when a toy broke, it belonged in the garbage.
With any hints of life gone, she was a mere corpse. The corpse of a human girl.

He hated him for everything. But by now, the only person left to blame was himself.
And there wouldn't even be a grave for a human that never existed.
Disclaimer: I do not own Kamichama Karin.
Once again I can't seem to write romance without putting in angst. This is KxK...just not the couple that we think of immediately. Out of all the characters, the only person Kazusa has interacted the most with was Kazune. This piece is slightly closer to sibling love than romance...
I should focus on writing more chapters on my pre-existing stories and 'Hanazono Karin[Dead End]'....
Oniisama refers to 'older brother' in a respectful/formal manner. As it seems unclear as to how Kazusa addresses her brother, oniisama is now used to indicte Kazune.
I would like to thank Random-chan for pointing that out.
