I sit alone in the darkness, just waiting for it to all end. I'm well aware my time a a Puella Magi was up. I let out a scream, a plead for some light in my last seconds. I feel something wet on my cheeks, and realize that it's tears.
"Someone! Help!" My wail is not returned. I truly am alone now. I'm hopeless and helpless. Anger and fear cloud my mind, but nothing pushes away the sadness and despair. Giving up has never seemed so hard, and I just sis everything could be normal again.
"Damn Hitomi! This is all her fault!" I yell into the blackness I feel like I'm being blanketed it, but deep down, I know that it has nothing to do with her at all. Broken wishes and dreams swirl around my head.
"I just hate this! I hate everything! Why can't I just die already? It would save me some much pain and suffering!" Nobody will ever hear my rage. Nobody will ever care. I just hope they're going to be sorry if they ever find my dead body once I'm a witch. I absolutely wish it would end. But then something happens.
"Sayaka..." it's a whisper. I look for the source of the noise, but my descent into a slow and sad death has blinded me.
"Sayaka. It's me. Kyoko..." the voice says again.
"Why are you here? I'll just kill you as soon as I..." The thought is unbearable. Tears start up once again.
"Sayaka. I know. And I'll die with you. I know how it feels to be all alone," Kyoko says. I'm shocked by that. Why would she do such a thing, if she knows it will surely end her life?
"It feels horrible. Trust me, I know," she is almost reassuring.
"Don't worry. I won't hurt you," and she holds out my hand. I take it, ready for whatever is going to come next.
Well, that's my first one-shot. 339 words of despair. I actually cried while writing this, and I hope you enjoyed it!
