AN: Got the idea for this while writing looking glass. Short first chapter but sure you will like it. Based off a vocaloid song.
Chapter one: Unrequited forgiveness
"I'm so sorry," he cried. The young child sat in the middle of a forgotten forest clearing. In his lap he cradled the head of his twin sister, leaning his back on a hedge made of thorn vines.
"I'm sorry," he cried. "I'm so sorry, please forgive me." He kept repeated his apology as his body was racked with uncontrollable sobs. He stared in the blank eyes of his sister as they stared into oblivion. Her mouth hung slightly agape as her attempts to breathe stopped long ago. The bruises around her neck have turned purple from when he had choked her. Her pleas had fallen on deaf ears at the time. As he cried, the child watched as her face was stained with his red tears. Unable to look at her longer he turned to face the lifeless hand that hung out of the hedge. Covered in blood, it hung above a fallen sword. Its once silver blade, stained red and rusted orange. At the bottom of the hilt was the symbol of a red spade.
"What do I do mother?" he asked the lifeless appendage, as an unending river of red tears continues to flow with no end in sight.
"I didn't want to do it. I didn't mean to do it. I-I couldn't control myself," he choked out. He stared at the lifeless hand of his mother. He asked, "Will dad forgive me? Will he still want me?" Turned his attention back to the tear stained face of his sister. "What do I do? Should I go back?"
As he stared into her face, he felt a new wave of sorrow wash over him. He held her head close to his chest as he broke down again, trying to mutter apologies while he choked on his own words. In the distance, through his loud sobbing, he could hear the sounds of the soldiers looking for him. They were calling out into the forest, trying to stay in contact with each other as they searched for him. After taking a moment to calm himself, he rested his twin's head on the ground before he stood up. He took another look at her open eyes before he decided to close them. As he reaches down, his fingers are an inch away before he freezes.
He collapsed on his knees, brought his hands to his face, and began to cry again. He looked at his hands as he pulled them away from his face. They were covered in tears of blood. The image of his mother's bloody hand that hangs next him flashes through his mind. Unable to handle it any longer he stands again. "I-I'm…I'm so sorry," he mutters before taking off into the forest. He could hear the shouts of the soldiers as they stumbled upon the clearing and discovered his sister's corpse. He blocked out the sounds of their voices as he continued to run. He had only one destination in mind. A place he had not seen in past three years. Joker Forest in the Country of Hearts. He thought of the one person there that could help him. And maybe forgive him.
"Dad."
