My name is Kizuna Naruse. For as long as I can remember my life has been a living hell. My parents separated because they couldn't stand how my twin brother and I acted. I've always had the ability to see and hear the spirits of the dead. My brother didn't have the same abilities as me, but he could sense them.
It was a night that I would never forget. The sky was perfectly clear, and the light of the full moon and stars were enough to see by. My brother and I were walking back from the movies to our mother's place. Though we were twins, we looked almost nothing alike. Maybe that's why the tings happened the way they did. We were just four blocks from the house when it happened.
It looked like the sky was tearing its self apart. I stopped dead in my tracks and looked up into the hole in the sky. I was too scared to move or yell. I stood there, watching it come out of the sky. Things happened pretty quick after that. My brother stopped walking, turned around and looked at me. His eyes held confusion, and it looked like he was about to ask something. But before he could, the creature crushed him by stepping on him. It was at that moment I actually started screaming.
The thing looked at me and a red ball of light started to form in its mouth. Even though I was confused and my mind was telling me to run, I couldn't move. I couldn't leave my brother. Even though he was dead, I refused to leave him. The creature shot the red light at me and time seemed to stop. A voice spoke to me inside my head. I could tell that it was definitely a female voice. When she spoke it echoed, it was creepy but I felt as though I knew it.
"If you want to live, let me come fourth. I promise not to kill you. You can trust me." I stood frozen for a few more moments before I answered the voice.
"Can you really kill it?"
"Come on Kizu. Have faith in our abilities. We wont let you down." while she spoke, I could hear another girl's voice as well as a guys.
"Fine then. Help me."
The worst pain I've ever felt in my life was in that moment. It felt as though my insides were being ripped apart by some unknown force. The pain finally subsided and it was like I was watching what was happening, and I was experimenting everything at the same time. I watched as my body moved without my control. Things started to go by in a blur. The creature eventually decided to go back into the hole that it formed in the sky As soon as it re-entered the sky, the pain shot through me again. Once it subsided the voices echoed through my head again.
"See? I told you that we wouldn't kill you. We'll talk again at a less scary time for you." The voices stopped and I passed out. I'm pretty sure that it was mostly from shock at seeing my brother die.
I don't know how long I was out, only that it seemed like such a long time. Eventually I woke up in a hospital, surrounded by white walls, lights and my classmates.
"Kizuna, you okay?" one of them asked. Even though I knew everyone that was in the room, I felt as though I didn't.
"I guess."
"You have any idea what happened?"
"No. Where's Raiku?"
"Kizu, don't you remember? He died when the metal beam fell from the building that you guys were next to. You're lucky to have even escaped with almost no injuries." panic surged through me. The events that happened that night, were playing over in my head.
I passed out again, and woke up to a annoying beeping noise. Doctors were rushing into the room. In all honestly I had no idea as to what was going on. One of them moved away from the bed and I saw myself laying there. Confusion was the first thing that I felt. What was going on? A male voice beside me snapped me out of my rushing thoughts.
"It's a scary sight isn't it? Watching people work over you as if you didn't exist?"
"Who are you?" I asked. He had pointed ears, crimson eyes, and crimson hair that went down to the middle of his back. He was wearing a loose chain mail kimono that had a red-ish tint to it. His pants were black hakuma.
"Me? My name's_"
"I'm sorry? What was that?"
He sighed. "So you cannot hear it yet. Well that's okay, just give it some time. I'm sure it'll come to you. You should probably get back into your body before the doctors destroy it, then you'd be in real trouble." he laughed. "Just remember that there are always three who will obey your every command" he disappeared, and I closed my eyes for a moment.
When I re-opened them I was staring up into the face of one of the hospitals' many doctors.
"She's back!" was all he said before leaving the room.
