'Thinking'

Chapter 1: Anything but Ordinary

Rentaro POV

I'm Rentaro Asagi a pretty ordinary guy standing at 6ft tall, with short spikey grey hair with red tips, warm golden eyes, and a lean muscular build pretty ordinary for a nineteen year old. However I seem ordinary, but they don't know that I am death, no one knows, and no one will ever know because everything I touch dies.

The earliest memory I can still recall to this day is the time I met her. Yes, I don't remember much about her but she was someone I held close. I met her years ago in a park surrounded with the pinkest cherry blossom trees I had ever seen.

I was five at the time I met her in that park. It was raining that day. I love the rain, it makes me feel closer to the sky that seems oh so far away. I only ever visited that park when it rained and before long it became a habit whenever it rained I would go to the park, for what I don't know. Until she appeared, I still remember the day I saw her sitting there on the swing in the rain. Something about her seemed to draw me in, was it her elegant appearance, her brilliantly lit eyes, or was it that she was swinging in the rain? I don't know the reason, but she drew my attention.

Taking a seat in the swing next to the girl I see her bright eyes glance over to see who had come.

"Hello." She greeted.

"Hello." I respond timidly as the sound of rain splattering against the pavement drowned out any more means of conversation, which was fine with me. Although I admit that a small part of me wanted to know more about this interesting girl.

Pulling out a tattered book I had picked up off the streets I began flipping through the pages.

We continued to sit under the rain as we let the water soak our clothes with the girl continuing to swing like she didn't have a single care in the world. Quietly reading my book I occasionally glanced up to the strange girl.

"The rain feels nice." She says a smile on her face "It's not often I get to go outside"

"I like the rain too." I say quietly flipping the page in my book.

"Won't your book get wet?" She asks curiously.

"Should be fine." I reply.

"Oh."

After our short exchange of words we resumed our own things until an hour or so later.

Seeing the girl gracefully jump off of her swing she spins around to me "I have to go now, see you later." She smiles before running off.

Staring at her receding form I soon resume my book and to be honest I don't remember what book I was reading that day.

This continued every time it rained, I would come, sit next to her on the swings, read while she swung, watch her leave, and repeat. Each time we would exchange few words learning bits and pieces of each other every time.

But one time I didn't see her at the swings. She was sitting on a bench underneath a small roof that was located inside the park for the parents. Sitting there I see her eyes light up as she sees me coming.

Sitting on a bench in front of her I open my book as she comes over and sits next to me.

"Do you have any dreams?" She asks as I continued reading.

"Not really." I say nonchalantly flipping a page in my book.

"Really? I have tons of them!" She spoke enthusiastically as I took my eyes off my book and turn to her. That was probably the first time I actually looked at her and I do admit that I don't remember her face but I do remember her smile.

I listened to her dreams as she talked and talked for who knows how long, I didn't really care because even though I only listened I knew the both of us were having fun from the sound of her voice.

And just like every other time she would suddenly jolt up like she had forgotten what time it was and leave.

"Bye." I wave to her quietly for the first time as she spun around a big smile gracing her features.

"Don't say bye." She says "We'll be seeing each other later right? So it should be 'See you later'." She explained to me as I looked at her. Bursting out in to a fit of laughter she looked at me strangely before an even bigger smile appeared. "I got you to laugh and say goodbye to me today!" She cheered to herself.

Spinning around she begins running off "I'll see you next time!" She waved disappearing leaving me alone once again.

I remember one time I showed up from being beat by a shop owner for stealing and for the first time I felt what it was like to be cared for by another person, maybe it was then that my heart had opened up for someone other than myself.

This happened every time it rained, each time we talked more and more. Before long I found myself hoping for rain the next day and every other day.

This girl had charmed me with her melodic laughter, smile, and voice yet I didn't even know her name. The seasons eventually changed and away went the rainy season along with our good times. I started to see the girl less and less until I didn't get to see her altogether.

Even when it did rain.

As the slivers of sunlight tried to make its way into my eyes I groaned sitting up as a book fell off my face. Rubbing the sleep out of my eyes I yawned stretching out my sore limbs from sleeping on the ground.

Glancing over to my clock I jolt upright "Shit I'm going to be late!" I curse jumping up from the floor. Running around my small apartment I got myself ready for school.

Grabbing my school bag and a book I start running to school. Looking up to the skies I see the grey clouds rolling over I slow my pace.

Seeing the little pallets of rain splatter down I walk slower letting the water hit my face. Walking to the park I met her at all those years ago I flopped onto my back under a cherry blossom tree.

Putting my hands behind my head I lay there closing my eyes listening to the sound of rain seemingly soothing me. I always skipped school whenever it rained and I would hang around the cherry trees.

After a few hours I decided to head to school. I only ever decided to go to the last period of the day when it rained.

Finally reaching the entrance of Kuoh Academy I drag myself into the building still wet. Walking through the dreading quiet hallways I head up to the third year's floor.

"I wish I could just graduate already." I mutter to myself, my hands in my wet pockets.

Reaching my classroom I push open the door as everyone looked at my wet form like every other time it rained. No one ever asked me why I showed up late nor did anyone really care.

"Please take a seat, Asagi-san." The teacher looked at me sharply as I lazily took my seat by the window.

I never felt a reason to come to school and because of that I never really tried either. Staring outside I became absorbed in the rain going into my own little world.

Hearing the bell ring signaling the end of class and school for that matter I started to get up. Gathering my things into my school bag I pulled out the book I had picked up today. Turning out of the classroom and into the hallway I walked through the hall totally engrossed in my reading.

Grunting I fall back onto my butt as I ran into something or more like someone judging by the sound of it. Rubbing my sore spot I quickly pick up my things and get up to see who I had ran into.

"Are you ok?" I ask.

"Yes, I'm sorry." The voice of a girl replied.

Offering my hand to the girl I see her closed eyes flutter open revealing a charming pair of blue-green eyes but the thing that caught my eyes the most was her flowing red no crimson hair. She was absolutely stunning a hour glass like figure that boys ogled at and girls would be jealous of.

"Sorry, I should've been paying attention to where I was going." I say snapping out of my thoughts as I helped her up.

"No it's alright." She offers a smile that would make any heart flutter "Well I have to get to my club now." She waves before walking away an air of elegance surrounding her.

Looking to the ground I see a slip of paper. "She probably dropped it." I mumbled picking it up.

Reading the slip I see a circle with intricate designs in it. "Use a drop of blood to contract a devil." I read to myself. "What the hell?" I say before stuffing the paper into my jacket pocket. Glancing over to one of the clocks hung up in the school my eyes widen. "Fuck I better hurry." I tell myself breaking out into a sprint.

Running through the school I finally reach the entrance gates. Sprinting through the pouring rain my breath quickened as did my pace as I rushed through the wet streets.

Reaching the local diner I come to a skidding stop. Rushing inside I see my boss a fat man who could barely move on his own reminding me of a pig.

"Oy! Rentaro, hurry up and git to work!" He ordered as I nodded running around to the back to get changed into my work clothes. No one at school knew about this either, about how the kid who showed up late everyday worked part time just to get by on tuition and rent.

And to be honest I hated this place day after day when I came to work I was always being kicked around by those higher up than me. Not much you can do when you're the kitchen boy who washes dishes, but the pay did barely get me by.

After getting dressed I hurried to the kitchen. Mentally groaning at the huge load of dishes already piled up I pick up a load and carry it over to the sink. Carrying heavy dishes everyday was probably what made me build up some muscles over the years.

"Come on go! Wash faster!" The head chef yelled at me as he smacked me in the head with a rolled up newspaper.

Furiously scrubbing at the plates I quickly washed the plates as the chef made another blow to my head with the newspaper. "I better not find any suds of soap left on those plates!" He shouted as I rinsed the plate. This was normal if not better than usual, sometimes they would beat me to vent out their anger because they knew I healed quick for a person. Seen as a blessing for others but is a curse to me.

As closing time came and after all my plates had been cleaned I was free to leave. Looking around the now empty kitchen I grab an empty to-go box. Quickly looking around the area to make sure no one else was there I take a spoonful of rice, filling up the box. Hastily going back to the changing room I hide the box into my school bag and change back into my normal clothes leaving soon after.

Walking home I look up to the now clear skies. The rain had gone, just like everyone I ever cared about in my life. But unlike them the rain always came back.

I always felt like I was walking aimlessly every time I walked 'home'. Walking down the same dimly lit streets to the same rundown apartment building in the rundown part of town, walking up the same flight of stairs, everything about this process seemed meaningless. Why did I have to do this every day? What's the point of life if it's just an endless cycle over and over again? It was all pointless and so was my life.

I didn't know what I was living for. I was just living for myself. Maybe it was to see the next rainy day, maybe it was because a small part of me longed to meet that girl in that park once more.

Unlocking the door to my apartment I trudge inside locking the door behind me letting out a sigh.

"What a pain." I groan shuffling my way into my one room apartment.

Sitting down on the floor I pull out the to-go box full of rice and a pair of chopsticks. This was the typical food I ate for every meal, rice for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

Splitting the rice into four portions in the box I soon began to hungrily eat a portion of rice. Finishing the small portion I close the box falling back onto the floor.

"Mannnnn I'm hungry." I tell myself staring up to my tattered ceiling. Laying there I pulled out the book I was reading. My tired fingers turning the pages as my eyes scanned the pages. I had always loved to read books, it didn't matter what book it was I loved to read them all. Especially if it added to my knowledge, books have just always helped me escape from reality.

Getting ready to go to sleep I took a shower which for some reason only spat out cold water. But it felt good against my skin calming my nerves. Brushing my teeth I washed my face as I left the bathroom and changed into my pajamas that consisted of only my boxers.

Pulling out my blanket and pillow I lay them on the ground as I stared into the ceiling of my dark room I waited for sleep to overcome my tired body. Closing my eyes I drifted off into a deep sleep.

"I had a lot of fun with you today!" The cheerful voice of the girl said. Looking around to look at the girl I see a blackened figure "Don't you remember me?" She asked hurt in her voice. Staring at the darkened figure I tried to make out her form unable to recall how she looked. "We told each other our names, remember Ren?" She questioned as my eyes widened at my nickname.

Looking at her dark form everything around us soon glowed, a bright light blinding me. Closing my eyes I shield my eyes from the blinding light. Reopening my eyes I'm in a room, not my room either and I was in someone's bed, not my bed I didn't have one.

Feeling a weight on me I look up my heart beat quickened as my eyes met with a pair of blue-green eyes. A sultry smile played at her lips as her long crimson hair fell down her back. Her impressive bust swaying before my reddening face I lay there underneath her weight she leaned down next to my ear.

"Rentaro." She whispered my name blowing into my ear making me shiver with delight.

Swallowing hard at her playfulness the scene before me soon disintegrated into nothingness as my body woke up from the slumber.

Groaning I sit up. Thinking about the girl in my dream I put a hand to my face I think "I ran into her yesterday…" I think out loud.

"Why am I dreaming about her?" I mumble my face reddening as my eyes trailed over to my clock. "Shit! I better hurry!" I scramble onto my feet to get ready for school.

Rias POV

Glancing out the window of the Occult Research Club I observe the school grounds below. Watching the hurried form of a gray haired guy cross through the front entrance, my eyes trailing his every move I see him glance towards the ORC building more precisely where I am standing. Seeing him continue walking into the school I stared at his receding form.

"Rentaro Asagi." Akeno says handing me a cup of tea.

"What?" I ask.

"That's his name, you were interested in him right?" Akeno says a knowing smile on her face. "Rentaro Asagi, he shows up late to school every time it rains and he is always alone when at school. I don't really know much more besides the fact that he's always reading." She continued without waiting for my response.

"He's quite cute isn't he?" Akeno asked as I turned around.

"What do you mean?" I ask.

"Ufufu if you don't go after him I will." She giggled.

Humming a response I continue watching the school grounds as another boy ran by but this time he was being chased by a group of girls waving their wooden swords.

"I need Issei Hyoudou in my peerage, but keep a close eye on Rentaro Asagi I felt something interesting inside of him." I tell Akeno as she nods a small smile on her lips.

"Ara ara so running into him yesterday wasn't an accident?" Akeno asked a smile on her face.

"Who knows?" I reply mysteriously.

Rentaro POV

"ACHOO!" I sneeze before resuming my reading. Flipping the page someone made their presence known next to me. Looking over to see who it was I see the crimson haired girl I had run into the other day.

"Good morning." She greeted cheerfully. Noticing the sharp glares I was receiving from the male population in the room as I raised a curious eyebrow at why she had decided to greet me.

"Good morning." I respond as the dream I had this morning creeped back into my head causing me to look away from her embarrassingly.

"I don't think I was able to properly introduce myself yesterday, my name is Rias Gremory." She introduced herself as I sensed hints of pride at her name.

"Nice to meet you, Rentaro Asagi." I respond as uninterestedly as possible. After all throughout my life I am practically invisible, faded into the background, a nobody, unless somebody wanted something from me. So I had my rights to be suspicious

Thinking the conversation was over I resumed my book. "Would you like to join the Occult Research Club?" She asked.

Looking at her strangely I tried to read her unreadable face "Sorry, but I can't." I reply.

"Why not? I'm the club president and Akeno is the vice-president." She introduced the black haired girl who had suddenly appeared next to her. Waving to me I wave back before turning the page in my book.

"I'm not interested." I state hoping to end the conversation as the tardy bell rang bringing me relief.

"Please think about it." She smiles before the two of them returned to their seats.

"Something's up." I whisper to myself resuming my reading.

Frowning as I flipped the page in my book I continued thinking about the fishy matter. And if you were wondering why the teacher hasn't said anything is because they all have basically given up on me, or as many would refer to as a lost cause.

Closing my book I lay my head down "What a pain." I curse under my breath as I stared ahead to the chalkboard "Literature class huh."

"Gremory-san can you please read this tanka?" The teacher asked pointing to the line of words.

{I DO NOT OWN THIS OR THE ANSWER IT IS FROM Man'yōshū, Book 11}"A faint clap of thunder, Clouded skies, Perhaps rain will come. If so, will you stay here with me?" She stood up reading it out loud as I stared at her along with the whole male population in my class, something about her elegance made me even more curious about her.

"Now since Asagi-san here, has decided to finally join us in class would you mind telling us the answer to this tanka?" She stared at me sternly as I too stood up.

"A faint clap of thunder, Even if rain comes or not, I will stay here, Together with you." I recite my voice strong and confident as the teacher looked at me a bit of surprise that was quickly hidden. I mean what did you expect from a guy who's always reading? Making eye contact with a smiling Rias I blush and avert my eyes to the ground before taking a seat.

Watching the class disperse for lunch I pull out my to-go box and a pair of chopsticks. Picking up my box I walk down the winding stairs of the school, leaving the building I walk around to the back of the school.

Finding a tree I sit under the shade leaning on the trunk I open my box of rice.

"ar roof" Hearing the small bark my head jolts up. Looking over to the bushes where the bark had come from I see a small skinny dog crawl out.

"Why hello there." I smile a real smile the one that I did rarely now days.

Watching the dog slowly approach me he sits next to me his fur slightly disheveled from not being groomed properly in ages.

Looking at his skinny form I glance down to my rice before placing the to-go box of rice in front of the dog. Seeing the dog's eyes light up like it were saying thank you I chuckle petting its unsually very soft fur. Sitting there I pet the poor dog as it devoured what was left of my rice.

"Are you running away from somewhere too?" I mumble petting the dog. "I'm alone too." I say sadly.

Falling back onto the grass I close my eyes to think about whatever came to my mind first and today the first and only thing that came to my mind was Rias. 'What could she be up to?' I think to myself.

Feeling a set of eyes fall on me I sit upright. Looking around my surroundings my eyes land on the tree in front of me, staring hard at the tree I expected someone to be there.

"If you want to fight me then just come out already." I mutter loud enough for if anyone was on the tree to hear me. Hearing nothing in return I relax a bit leaning back on the trunk I run my fingers through the dog's coarse fur.

Pulling out a book from my pocket I glance over the creased cover spelled across the cover was "The Seven Deadly Sins". This book was one of my favorites for some reason it just really appealed to me. Each sin; pride, envy, wrath, sloth, greed, gluttony, and lust everyone carries at least one sin it keeps us human.

Looking over I see that the dog was finished with my rice. Smiling I pat the dog as its tail wagged happily. Standing up I hear the bell ring, looking back down to the dog I smile "I'll be back tomorrow." I wave before heading back to class.

"Ara ara, are you Asagi-san?" Someone asks from behind me.

Turning around I'm met with a gorge- wait no pretty girl with violet eyes and black hair carefully tied up with an orange ribbon.

"Ah please call me Rentaro, you must be Himejima-san from this morning nice to meet you." I offer a timid smile.

Returning the smile she nods "Rentaro-kun, please call me Akeno then, and yes we did meet yesterday. I was actually wondering if you had made a decision on joining us."

"I'm sorry, but I'm not going to join your club." I say not elaborating any more than that.

Quickly regaining my calm composure I nod my head to excuse myself as I started to walk away, holding my hand with a firm yet gentle grip I look back at her an emotionless expression on my face.

"Please consider the offer." She says with her usual eye smile. Letting me go I stuff my hands into my pockets as Akeno walked next to me.

Walking through the front schoolyard to reenter the school I hear hushed whispers suddenly arise.

"Isn't that Akeno-Onee-Sama?"

"She's hot!"

"Who's that guy next to her?"

"I'm going to kill that bastard!"

"I'm so jealous!"

"That guy is pretty hot."

"Ufufu what happened to that cool demeanor?" She teased me as I shuddered at the last comment.

"I'm not used to this much attention." I reply quietly as she giggled.

"Don't be so nervous you are actually quite good looking."

Blushing at her comment I don't say anything as we made our way up the stairs to the third year's floor.

Reaching the classroom we made our way to our separate seats. Falling into my seat I lay my head down "What a pain." I sigh for the umpteenth time today.

Keeping my head on the table I look up to Akeno and Rias near the front of the classroom talking to each other. Staring at them I couldn't shake off the feeling that whatever it was that they needed me for was something important, almost like they had something to hide from everyone.

As the final bell of the day rang I sluggishly moved to pack up my belongings turning towards the door to leave spot out of the corner of my eye I spot Rias Gremory standing there with a smile spread across her beauti- no elegant face.

Seeing her notice me she walks in front of me blocking off the exit. Grabbing my hand she starts running pulling me along with her vice grip.

"W-wait Gremory-san!" I say as she continues running.

"Just Rias is fine." She smiles.

"R-Rias-san, I need to go." I started as she didn't listen to me continuing to pull me along.

Running next to Rias we reach the front of the school where she continued running straight to the back of the school and towards the old school building that wasn't used anymore. Getting to the school building she pushed open the door revealing a darkly decorated room.

"Welcome to the Occult Research Clubroom!" She said happily as I frowned a bit at this.

"Look Rias-san, I am not joining your club." I state stubbornly as Rias's face puffed up into a pout, checking the time on the clock hung up on the room. "Please excuse me but I need to get going." I tell her walking away from a disappointed Rias.

Sprinting I internally screamed at myself 'Dammit I took too long now I'm going to be late.'

Reaching the diner I sprint inside only to be met by my pig of a boss. "I pay you and you decide to come late?" He said a crooked smile grew his greasy face. "Let's have a little talk about your work ethic in the back, how bout we?" He pointed with his sausage finger as I quietly heeded his words.

Walking to the dark room in the back he closes the door behind us and flicks the light on. Turning to face him I only see stars flash before my eyes as I felt my cheek swelling up. Still standing on my feet I open my eyes to look at the sneering man his fist raised.

"Don't think you can git away with bein paid and gettin here late!" He bellowed as he threw another fist at my gut making me grunt from the force. Listening to his snickering I could tell the sick bastard was enjoying this.

Staring at him only made my blood boil but even so I was so so tired to even fight back, what was the point anyways? So I let him continue dealing me blow after blow bruising my face until he drew blood. Afterwards he shoved me to the ground, landing with a hard thud I hear him open the door. Thinking he was done with me I started to stumble up from the floor.

Hearing the door close once more my heart dropped a bit as I craned my sore neck up to see what had happened. Seeing two more men accompanying him one being the head chef and the other a waiter both wearing sly smirks matching that pig's.

Grunting as I felt a shoe being stomped on the side of my face I see that pig smiling cruelly down to me "Now who said you could git up?" He chuckled.

Seeing the two men smile down to me like I were a piece of trash I hear them pop their knuckles. Driving the heel of his shoe into my head I curled up in pain as the two men started kicking me bruising my ribs and back, keeping me from curling up any further.

Keeping my mouth shut from letting out any screams of pain I felt my warm blood trailing down my back and chest. For minutes all you could hear was the thumping of a body and the occasional snicker of entertainment.

After a few more minutes that felt like hours they finally stopped. Feeling my body go limp I lay on the cold floor. Pulling me up by the collar of my shirt my body felt heavy as he brought me a few inches away from his face.

"Git outta here, you're fired!" He shouted in my face his breath stinking of dead fish making me gag internally.

Gritting my teeth I look him hard in the eyes as I spat in his face a mixture of blood and saliva coming out as his face scrunched up with anger.

"Don't make me regret letting you go." He hissed.

"Fuck you."

Roughly tossing me over to his two lackeys he looks at me disgusted "Toss him out wit the garbage." He sneered before turning away.

Grabbing me by my arms they dragged me out of the room and outside to where the garbage dumps where located in the alley.

"Have fun." They cackled before tossing me in with the garbage they tossed my now dirty school bag on top of me.

Groaning from landing on some sharp aluminum cans I lay there staring from the dumpster to the dark sky that was brightly illuminated with millions of stars. Those stars somehow someway gave me hope even at this moment.

Picking up my freshly torn bag I pick my sore body up as I climbed out of the dumpster. Landing on the concrete ground my knees buckled from the sudden force as I stumbled for balance. Falling onto the hard ground a moan of pain escaped my lips.

"I hate them, I hate them." I repeated over and over again my voice shaking with anger.

Laying there my chest rose and sank as I took in shallow breaths. Putting a hand to my ribs I winced in pain "I definitely bruised some ribs." My parched voice mumbled. Getting back up from the ground my body felt ten times heavier as my head spun.

Standing back up on my feet I limped out of the alley as the street light shone down on me letting me get a full view of the damage. Looking at my tattered clothes I sighed tiredly "Now I have to buy a new uniform too."

Dragging my heavy body down the darkly lit streets leading to my rundown apartment building I felt a large hand on my shoulder. Turning to see who it was I see a burly built man with tattoos along his arms with three others behind him, probably his lackeys.

"What do you want?" I ask a bit irritated knowing fully well how the more run down parts of town was prone of thugs.

"Looks like this kid has got a bit of an attitude, don't cha think boys?" He sneered looking at me as if I were below him. "Well lookie here kiddo, why don't you give me all the money you have on ya and we'll be on our way. Sounds good right?"

Scowling at him my mood only got sourer than before.

"Look like this kid's got an attitude." He chuckled to his 'friends'. "Now that won't do now will it?" He laughed reaching into his pocket before pulling out a knife.

Feeling my heart thump madly against my ribcage as my ears rang like drums. I don't know what expression I had on my face at the time but I know I was scared before I thought came to me.

'I thought I didn't have a reason to live anymore, so why am I so scared?' I think to myself as a flash of the girl in the park came to mind, wincing as the grip on my shoulder tightened.

Letting my frantic eyes trail over to the beady eyes of the thug he gives me a chilling smile showing off his yellow teeth. Looking left and right for a chance to run I found myself surrounded by his lackeys.

Suddenly grabbing my arms they held onto me tightly as their supposed boss towered over me. Swallowing hard I stared eye to eye with the large man my tired body shaking in fear.

"Why don't we mess up that face of yours some more." He cackled his voice causing me to back away slightly only for his men to hold me in place. Now if this were some anime I would've gained some kickass power right about now, but this isn't some anime is it?

"So be a good boy and hand over your wallet."

"I don't have my wallet." I say firmly my already cut lip quivered slightly from my previous injuries.

Seeing a dissatisfied look come across the thug's face he looks at his lackeys. Unable to read his facial expression I'm suddenly pushed to the ground with a hard thud causing me to cry out in pain from my bruises and cuts.

Searching my body one of the lackeys pipes up "He really doesn't have anything on him."

"Lemme have another look at the bastard." A different voice commanded as I peered up to see who the voice belonged to.

Letting my eyes look at the man in clerical clothing with short white hair and crazed red eyes that seemed to drill holes into my soul I trembled on the ground, but the thing that seemed to scare me the most about the man was his disturbing smile that twisted at the edges of his mouth.

Watching the man's every move he immediately dashes forward. The scent of blood filled the air as red filled my vision, a sudden pain shooting throughout my body as I looked down to the gaping hole in my stomach. Seeing a sickening grin grow on his face I choked on my own blood.

Watching him stand above me a very bright blade almost as if it were made of light in his hand dripping with my thick red blood, hearing his insane laugh emit from his throat as the four thugs from before stood behind him.

"The bastard didn't even put up a fight, how pitiful." The white haired man said in between laughs making my body shake in rage.

'Dammit if only I were stronger this wouldn't have happened.' I thought to myself over and over again as I clenched my fists. I could already feel my body become more and more nauseated by the minute as my blood pooled around me.

Seeing the white haired man lean down in front of my face he whispered just loud enough for me to hear "You're probably thinking 'why me?' well let me tell you why. You were brought into this world as a bastard so it's only right that you leave this world as one."

Standing back up straight he looked down on me as I received the same look I always received the look of being below him. Turning away from me the four thugs followed the white haired man as black feathered wings popped out from their backs.

Watching my surroundings start darkening I chuckle a bit before coughing up blood bringing my unusually heavy hand up to my face I look at the dark red blood covering my hands.

"It's the same color as her hair… crimson…" I mumble my voice barely above a whisper. I found it funny that in my last moments I thought about some girl I had only recently met.

'She really was interesting I only wish that I could've gotten to know her better…'

Feeling weak my eyes started to close just as a bright red light shone from my jacket pocket.

'Must be some weird death thing people see before they die, people say they see the light right? This must be it…' I think to myself a small chuckle coming from my lips, tears falling from my eyes.

"It's funny that I've come to accept this… even though I-I regret never telling that girl…" I chuckle dryly as my lungs ran out of air, my cold body started to shut down as I no longer felt the pain from earlier.

"It's ok Ren." A soft yet warm voice came over me like a cool breeze during a hot summer day.

'She's the only one who calls me that…'
