Kagerou Days
"I hate me too." I cry.
"Maybe that's why this is happening. Maybe even God hates you Harald." Says The Days as he grins.
I cry into myself Dragan opens the door a crack.
"Are you alright?" He asks.
"Yes of course." I reply.
I wipe the tears of my face with the back of my hand. Dragan sits beside me. I look into his eyes and see yellow reflected in the purple orbs. I kiss him and he lets out a small squeak. The Days are wrong I think to myself. Dragan doesn't hate me. He kisses me harder and I slip my tongue in causing him to gasp. I send my hands up his shirt and feel those muscles he works so hard on. Brave walks in and makes the most heartbroken face I have ever seen. Brave runs off. Dragan shake me off and chases after him. I hear a pair of shrieks. I run out to survey the scene. Brave had shoved Dragan away into the street just when a motorcycle with a white-haired man went past. The blood is all over his blonde highlights. Brave's eyes are the size of the moon as he screams. I can't help but feel ill.
"Serves him right the spicy cheater." The Days whispers in my ear.
I pass out under the watchful gaze of a man in a metal mask.
I wake up, what time is it today? I pick up my ipod. It's ten in the morning, April 15th. Brave is standing over me.
"Hey sleepy head! You slept all yesterday!" he kids.
I grab him and kiss him because it feels real. He laughs at that as I see malice in his eyes.
"Kissing me? Huh? After you whored yourself to Dragan?!" he screams.
"Whore." I say.
"YES! WHORE!"
I kiss him again. He recoils.
"So you remember?" I ask.
"YES I DO! What you remember?" He asks back.
"Why yes I do. I remember every single day you die. I always hear your ripping screams pierce the ozone layer."
"You're trapped too aren't you?"
"Yes I am."
And Brave kisses back sending waves of pleasure through my spine. Dragan is standing in the doorway and moves Brave aside.
"In suppose I ought to confess as well, all three of us are trapped in this cycle." Dragan explains.
The three Heat Haze Days appear with smiles on their sinning face. I scream in anger and try to punch mine. My hand goes straight through. I scream in frustration. Dragan restrains me as I go for him again. The Days shove me back. I lie in Dragan's arms comforted by the sound of his deep voice. We start discussing all the times we have died. Brave leans against the wall as it falls down. I don't even scream. He does though as he plummets to his death. His twisted body smells of lies and heat. I laugh as the summer disappears. The clock is smashed against his fragile body. We are all fragile aren't we? So delicate. I laugh out loud. Dragan laugh too. We laugh at the frailty. The sun sinks and we are still laughing. I pass out from exhaustion and the sound of,
"Ah, it is so much fun watching you go insane."
I awaken and it's just past ten on April 13th. It doesn't matter. Dragan walks in.
"Are you okay? You went mental yesterday." He says.
"I think you mean to tomorrow." I correct.
He chuckles. Brave walks in and wraps his arms around me.
"All we need to do is live Harald, live a day. We can do this." Brave chirps.
"The cycle has repeated for centuries Brave. This isn't ending anytime soon." Dragan groans.
"He's tight, we better make the most of it." I say.
We walk into the living room and sit perfectly still. A sword goes through the window and impales Dragan straight through. Brave's eyes are the size of the moon and I wipe three spots of blood of my cheek, it stains my jacket. Brave and I sit here with a dead body rotting in the summer heat. I laugh bitterly. Brave laughs too. He grabs me by the shoulder.
"Let's go to an alley way out back." He suggests.
I walk outside and we go to the alley way. There sits three men in black cloaks. The powder blue haired one that apparently killed me and two others. Brave lets out a laugh as he pulls a knife and stabs him.
"You guys killed/ are killing/ will kill my friend over here. It's only fair that you die too." Brave says while the man slumps.
"Well, you know I kind of have time to kill." I murmur boldly.
I take the knife Brave give me and start a fight. Someone sees this, a man in a metal mask. I merely laugh. Then summer disappears.
I wake up on my and don't look at the time. I remember an awfully annoying cricket. I remember where I heard that last, April 15th. We go out for a ride to a newly opened restaurant and pull up. We walk in and order the most expensive food and wine. I get drunk as does Dragan. Brave's face turns purple as he passes out. I continue eating my food as a waitress screams. She drops her plate on the floor.
"WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ANYONE!" She screams at me.
"Because I don't give a damn." I reply.
"Serves him right anyway, calling you a whore." The Days says.
I pass out from the wine.
I wake up ignoring the time. Dragan, Brave and I take a walk. We run into the alley way again. Dragan gets shot three times by cops in the area trying to stop a violent gang of drug dealers. I laugh and everyone turns to me.
"doesn't matter." I say.
The yellow in his hair turns red. I smile at that. Brave's eyes are the size of dimes.
I awaken again on another day. We go for another walk. To a nearby bus stop. A man in a metal mask stands by us. He has black hair shaped like a crab.
"Is it still happening?" he asks.
I ignore the fool. Dragan has his hands around Brave's waist.
"Well is it?" the man asks.
"Yes." I reply.
"Ah."
And then the roar of a bus in the distance starts. The light turns red. The man with the strange hair runs forward a bit as the light turns a bright and glaring red. What jumps out is a bus. Brave runs to get him out of the way. Dragan shoves Brave. The two of them are about to get hit. In order to end this clichéd story in a clichéd way I shove them both out of the way. The bus slams into me as my screams fill the spaces in between the stores. Rave's eyes are the size of saucers and Dragan has my blood in his hair. Te man frowns.
"Serves you right." I say to The Days.
The man flickers a bit.
I see that this is destined to continue happening. I, Z-ONE must alter the state of the world. I must change it so they all survive. I must let them live. It is the only way to progress.
