An Assignment Turns Into a Massacre

Hisoka's POV

We kneel before the head of the village that we have accepted the assignment to do an extermination for. I look at the lord; he seems strange, like he isn't in his right mind. Well, this is just a guess, I've never been around this man to know if this is how he usually acts. But still, he looks very pale and ill….

"I see you have brought two girls, and a young child." He eriely points out. I clench my fists at my sides. If he starts to make comments about us-

"Yes, my lord, they are my son and daughters, the finest slayers in my village." I smile proudly at Chici-jue's praise. I look to my younger brother, Kohaku, who is kneeling beside me. He's very shaky and nervous and afraid about what will happen in the next few minutes when the demon comes.

"He called us the finest; don't worry Kohaku, it'll be just fine." I reasure him, smiling brightly.

"Yes, Kohaku do your best." Sango, my younger sister, says. "And you too, Aune-jue."

I grin, "You don't have to tell me twice."

Kohaku is still trembling though. He hasn't taken on a large demon like this before, and in front of a lord of a village as well. That may not just be it, it could be just the fear of the demon itself.

An ominous cloud appears over the castle. "Go forth demon slayers!" One of the guards for the lord commands.

"Aye, move out." Chici-jue orders the rest of us and we all jump into position.

The dark cloud swirls and a huge spider comes out of the center. It lands loudly with an enormous thud and stands over us, screeching loudly. I prepare myself to battle. Webs burst out of its mouth towards us.

"Surround it!" Chici-jue shouts and dodges the webs that come his way.

I duck and cut Kohaku free when he becomes entangled in them. "You alright?"

"Yeah." He replies out of breath. I put a hand on his shoulder.

"Deep breathes!" One of the others says a few feet away.

The eldest of our comrades cuts his weapons deep across the spider demon's side. It falls and Chici-jue holds one side of its head down with his weapon, and I hold down the other side with my twin katakanas.

"It's down, end it!" He shouts to Sango. We all take turns ending the demons when we go on exterminations in a group. Last time it was me who killed it. It was a large, violent bear demon. That one took longer than the usual exterminations.

"HIRIKOSU!" She shouts and swings her huge boomerang and sends it ripping down the demon's back. It shutters and shakes for a moment, then it dies, completely collapsing onto the ground. I pull my katakanas away and step back from the carcass.

"That girl killed it in one sweep!" One of the guards says in shock.

"Let's finish this, off with its head!" Two of the others raise their weapons.

I notice Kohaku run over to them; I guess he wants to help with it.

I turn my attention off of him to two of the others cutting off a horn on its head, but I hear the chains on Kohaku's sickle and chain stop clattering as he runs. He hasn't reached the carcass yet. Maybe he decided not to.

Wait, something does not feel right here. That kind of a demon shouldn't have been killed so quickly and easily. Sango and I exchange looks. I can tell she's thinking the same as me. I mouth to her, 'Stay on your guard.' she nods. We prepare ourselves for when the demon will get up and attack.

But what actually happens takes us both totally by surprise. The two slayers in front of us and the rest of our comrades are all sliced through the upper chests. Bursts of blood fly through the air and I gasp in horror.

After that, everything else goes terribly wrong.

I loose control of my body.

I race over to Chici-jue and before he can react to my sudden movement, I cleanly slice his head off with my katakanas. The blades are stained with my kin's scarlet blood and I don't feel any regret or remorse.

Sango gasps and stares at Kohaku and I with her face twisted in pain and agony. "Why? Why Anue-jue, Kohaku, why did you slay Chici-jue and the others?"

Neither of us respond and run to her side by side, in perfect sync to the other. Kohaku attacks and sends his sickle to cut the side of her head.

Sango backs away, obviously very afraid of what we are going to do, "No, Kohaku, Aune-jue, don't!" The sickle cuts the gas mask off her face and it falls to the ground. She gasps again and keeps backing away in fear.

Kohaku rebounds the sickle and catches just when Sango falls to her knees, "Have you both forgotten who I am?" She asks in shock and drops her hirikosu.

"What's going on?" One of the guards exclaims.

"Stop this madness!" Another commands.

The lord stops their outbursts, "Let them continue. This could prove to be entertaining." He says with cruel interest and drinking sake or some other drink.

Kohaku swings the sickle in the air and I run to attack from behind. Sango blocks the sickle with her sword when he throws it, but I am right behind her ready to end her life. She dodges around me and we advance on her quickly and swiftly.

Kohaku attacks with his sword but Aune-jue blocks and pushes him foreword. I swing one of the katakanas up high and the other down low to strike her in a deep, long cut up her stomach and down her chest to meet in the middle and stab through her together, but she notices and blocks my blades quickly with her sword.

"Why are you doing this, Aune-jue, Kohaku?" She shouts.

Her gaze travels to the backs of our necks then traces over to the lord.

"He's the one." Sango says, struggling from blocking both of at once. She kicks us out of the way and we fall next to each over.

Sango grabs the hirakosu, "You did this to them! You're finished!" She breathes sharply and charges for him.

"The siblings have lost their minds; slay them!" The lord orders his guards and they run to us with their weapons raised to kill. Sango knocks away the first four with the hiriakosu, but as she gets closer to the archers who are preparing to shoot, Kohaku and I throw our weapons at her unguarded back. She stops abruptly and turns to stare at us with her face filled with pain.

Then it's like my consciousness is turned back on. I can control my body again, and all of the dread and regret I should've been feeling before come crashing down on me. I can barely keep my sanity now. I have killed our father and harmed my dear younger sister Sango.

Kohaku and I fall to our knees next to each other. I stare at my hands, there is no blood on them, but there are the stains of the sins that I have committed. I tremble and take off my mask and Kohaku does the same. "Sango, what have we done?" I cry out and begin to shake violently.

"Kohaku! Aune-jue!"

We get up and race to where she is sitting on her knees with my katakanas and Kohaku's sickle embedded in her back. "No!" Kohaku cries with his voice filled in anguish.

"Sango!"

"Aune-jue!" Tears stream down my face and I choke on them.

The archers let the arrows fly at us and two embed themselves in each of Kohaku and I's chests. "Ah!" I yell out and we fall on our backs side by side again.

Sango crawls over to us, "Kohaku, Aune-jue."

"Aune-jue, I'm afraid." Kohaku whimpers. I grab his hand and Sango's and tightly squeeze them both. She puts her head on his chest and stares deep into my eyes.

"I'm so sorry." I mouth to her and she smiles weakly.

"Do not worry, I'm right here. Ah!" Three arrows are shot in her back and she collapses on Kohaku. I close my eyes, tighten my grip on both of their hands, then fall into the peaceful, painless realm of darkness.
