The True Hero
I do not own Yu-Gi-Oh, or any other show, brand name, song, movie, or anything else in that nature (if used). Constructive criticism is accepted and appreciated. This is not recommended for children under the age of 13 because of language and blood. People of the internet, you have been warned. Ryo POV.
I entered my apartment
I walked over to the living room
I slumped down onto the sofa
As I recalled my day from hell:
When I woke up this morning
It felt as if I hadn't slept at all
On my walk to school
Honda had tripped me on the ice
Which made me late to class
Jonouchi told me to do his work for him
Ryuji didn't stop glaring at me with evil eyes
When I failed my Geometry test
Yugi snickered behind me
That damn son of a bitch
Anzu began gossiping when I asked to go home early again
When the teacher shook his head
I heard Yugi whisper:
"That's right, Bakura. You're not getting away!"
My heart sank
My stomach dropped
And I ran out of the room.
Now I'm back home
Although I'm still not alone
Still not safe from the hurt of words from others
Revenge, Ryo…
He hissed in my ear
I tried to block him out
But it was pointless.
You deserve it…
I began to shake all over
I thrashed my head from side to side
Refusing to listen
But he kept coming back
Claim your prize, Ryo
His voice began poisoning me thoughts
I could see the blood
The sticky red liquid
All over the campus of my school
Even the sky seemed to bleed
And I saw him
I saw Bakura smiling as he held a red-stained blade.
He turned to me
He revealed his inhuman fangs as his grinned
"For you, Ryo…"
He laughed:
"This is all for you…"
I screamed
And when I opened my eyes
I was back in my apartment
When I thought it was over
I could hear him speak again:
And it soon will be…
"No!"
I yowled
And then ran into the kitchen
And pulled out a knife
You cannot kill me with that!
He began to mock me
Just like everyone else
Like how I'm shunned at school like the plague
"Enough!"
I shouted
The cold medal of the blade pierced into my skin
Stabbing the muscles
And spilling the blood
Ryo, what are you doing?
His voice turned into a panic
I knew it was working
So I moved on down my arm
Without removing the blade
Stop it, Ryo!
I smiled
Not listening to his words of mercy
You'll kill us both!
I didn't care
And I knew that no one else did either
I thought about what would happen when they find my body
Will they be sad?
Or overjoyed?
I didn't care
And it didn't matter anyway
Because deep down
I know
And they know
That I am the true hero
I am the one who will save them
The one that will destroy the evil
For my last moments
I was proud of myself
Even if others were not
And I kindly allowed
The darkness to consume me.
A/N: I wrote this after having an extremely depressing day yesterday. And yeah, I failed my Geometry test, too. But the good news is that I've gone back to my normal (normal for me) happy, yet still crazy, self! Anyway, please leave a comment! Thank you!
