Kagerou Daze.
Part One.
John Watson, Heat Haze/Time Loop.
August 15th, 12:30, there isn't a cloud in sight.
Ha, what a pretty day.
I'm getting kind of sick of the heat the rays are giving way.
I zoom out of bed and quickly got dressed.
Today, we said we would meet at the park.
Sherlock, I love spending time with you, I can't wait to see you.
I smiled and dashed out of the house.
A few minutes later, I found you in the park, sitting on the swings.
You always arrive so early, with that black cat of yours.
"Hey Sherlock." I smile and sat down on the swing next to yours.
"John." You said, petting your cat who was purring contentedly in your lap.
We sat in silence, a comfortable silence, watching the bright blue sky when you broke the silence.
"Hey you know, I don't really like the summertime." You said such a daring thing.
Suddenly, the cat ran away.
You chased it, me in tow, until you jumped out in front of a traffic light that shone a red, such a bright red.
"SHERLOCK!" You push me away, out of the traffic as a truck came crashing in and broke you to bits.
That truck heard you scream a little bit too late.
Blood was dripping everywhere and choking your smell, I breathe in a gulp of air and just couldn't take it.
"I'm sorry..." I thought I heard you say.
Are these lies? The heat is mocking me.
"What you see is exactly what you're gonna get!" said the figure right next to me.
It looked like a dark version of me.
It grinned and pushed me right back into another dark sleep.
As I shot up in my bed, I could hear my clock ticking.
The shock will mock my ever ringing head.
I look to see the time on my dinosaur of a phone.
August 14th, 12 something there isn't a cloud in sight, the sun is shining down on us, back in our swings in the park.
"Hey, I really have to wonder..." I started saying. You turn to look at me with your sharp grey eyes. "Because in the dream I had last night we were sitting in same old park we are sitting in now."
You stare at me for a moment then you cat jumped off your lap and ran away.
Scared at the déjà-vu, I grab your hand before you could run after your cat.
"Hey, I think the two of us should leave." You stare at me and nod, following me.
But slight stepping off the path, I saw people gaze upwards to the sky, gaping pointing struggling to keep away a scream.
"SHERLOCK!" You push me away as a pole came stabbing holes and splitting you in two, the beam made seam as it fell from the sky.
"I'm sorry..." I'm pretty sure I heard you say.
What are you sorry for? This has got to stop.
Are these lies? The heat is mocking me.
"Beat you wish you were asleep but it's not a dream!" That same dark me said.
My vision blurred keeping my thoughts at bay and I swear, you stood there while keeping such a dark smile.
I shot up from my bed with a quick look at the time on my phone.
August 14th, 12 something and not a cloud in sight.
No, this can't be happening.
What is this horrible nightmare?!
I ran to you, still sitting on the same swing, in the same old park, with that same black cat on your lap.
You stare at me, surprised, as I pull you off the swing and guided you elsewhere.
Oh God, please, let Sherlock live.
We run up some stairs to get on top of bridge where I thought we'd be safe.
But, in the minute where I had let go of your hand, the heat appeared, smirking at me.
"You're hopeless!" The boy laughed at me.
And you slipped and fell.
Tumbling down the stairs, I heard you bones crack and break. I knew you were dead and I swear, just before you fell, I heard you say "I'm sorry..." with such a sad smile.
Endlessly I see that over heated haze and again the laughing will repeat on throughout the days.
You've been dying for the past ten years.
We are trapped in cycles and the end is never clear.
But a story is a story all the same and today, like any, has an ending so to say.
I see you chasing that cat and I know that truck is going to hit in a few seconds.
Even though it's been ten years, my heart is still being shredded. I can't take this anymore.
Sherlock, I'm so sorry but I can't let you die again.
Crashing in and hitting me instead of you. I push you aside to nearly dodge a truck.
As I fell I whisper to you "I'm sorry..." with a sad smile.
Blood dripping everywhere and choking my smell, you breathe in a gulp of air and just can't take it.
Are these lies? I haven't heard him say, "What you see is exactly what you're gonna get!" He just stood there, watching me fall, with such a shocked expression on his face.
Maybe this summer day has finally gone away but as I turn my head I see the heat watching me besides you. A dark version of you, and now I understand, that we've both been dying over and over again in this summer heat daze and there was nothing we could do except save one another, but a story is a story all the same and each day has an ending so to say.
But that's all I'll say so this is where it ends now.
Sherlock Holmes, Heat Haze/Time Loop.
August 14th, 12:30, there's not a cloud in sight.
I hate this summertime so much but there's nothing I can do. I sit here, hopeless, watching the clock tick, the heat mocking me constantly.
I lean my head on my window and cry.
"Guess I failed again..." I murmured as I petted my black cat.
John, I'm sorry...
