Shiki: Kyouko Lives On
Darkness... Cold air... What has become of me? I remembered me and Tatsumi were just hanging out and then I felt odd. What happened?
I feel cold air as my eyes start to open and I find myself strapped to a operating table and looked around, the first thing I noticed was Toshio, looking back at me with hate filled eyes. What have I done wrong? I looked at myself and saw I was white as a sheet and I looked at my reflection on those blades to find my eyes were black with red pupils. I have no idea what I am or why I look like this now but words like Shiki and Okiagari flash into my mind. "Toshio?" I muttered before he walked towards me, I thrashed as mych as I could and tried to get a better explaination as to what was the matter.
"Hold still demon!" Toshio's voice rang as he grabbed my collar. I looked at his arm and bit him, trying to get him to let me go. "Toshio! Whats wrong? Tell me!" I screamed, fresh tears falling down my face, he looked down at me and suddenly stopped. He looked, off. As if someone hypnotised him and I looked at him, begging him to release me, which he thankfully did.
I ran out of the clinic as fast as I could, the darkness felt lively and made me feel free somehow, and soon, I seen Tatsumi looking at me. "Kyouko! You made it, and I see you have Toshio under a hypnosis." Tatsumi applauded me and I looked concern. "What am I? What did I do to Toshio? What in the world is going on?" I fired Tatsumi with questions and he calmly smiled and decided to answer them all to me. "You are no longer alive Kyouko, you are now an Okiagari, or as what the Kirishiki family proudly name, Shiki." He explained as I touched my skin, it was ice-cold, like I expected a dead person like me would have. "You have powers as an Okiagari like hypnotism, don't worry about Toshio. I am sure he will snap out of it quickly." Tatsumi smiled as he held my hands as we started walking towards Kanemasa.
"I am to introduce you to the Kirishikis, I hope everything will go as well as planned." Tatsumi said to me and I followed him, looking back at that clinic, leaving behind my mother-in-law and Toshio. "People who have been dead are awaiting your arrival, Kyouko. You are one of us and I hope you stay happy with them and me." Taysumi smiled as he watched me follow him, I had nowhere else to go, where could I go? I looked back at the clinic for one last time before looking back to Tatsumi. I thought of one thing and one thing only...
Goodbye Toshio...
