His raven hair damp with the rain shower, he was lying down on the ground waiting for his senses to come to an end. With the feeling that he was successful he found himself inside a void. A dark and dim place wherein life could be absent. His eyes opened and blinked, he slowly turned to his side absorbing that fact that he was successful. 'Heart Failure' the blue eyed man mumbled to himself as it echoed in his mind. Sacrificing his own life to save his brother's, it will be a huge change for Mai.
"Idiot" He heard a voice echoing in the void, the voice was familiar, it was something that he could never expect meeting in such a void place. He turned to his right and then to his left, as a man with raven hair showed himself in front of the narcissistic.
"Gene…" His lip curved into a small smile, he was happy to see his brother again. Until he realized that he was there then concluded that he may have died, thus making his sacrifice useless. He stepped back and looked at him with narrowed eyes.
"Are you dead as well?" his voice was faint with worry.
"Idiot, No, Not yet…" Gene looked at him and gave him a face palm. "You really are useless."
"Where are we then?" Naru asked with a sigh of relief.
"Where all souls stay before passing on. It is believed that souls who have not yet meant to die stay here or souls who couldn't accept the fact they died, stay. This is where Astral projectors usually go"
Naru raised his eye brow and crossed his arms looking at his twin. "I have accepted the fact that I am dead, and I also believe that I am meant to save you today, Gene"
The older twin shook his head and looked at him again. "I wouldn't want my niece and nephew grow without a father, Noll."
The younger twin flinched as he used the terms niece and nephew rather than his children. Naru looked at him with dismay and he clenched his fist. "I'm sorry if we had to lie."
Gene gently touched his shoulder and then suddenly gave the younger twin a punch on his gut. Naru groaned as he pulled back and watched as his older brother wave off the pain on his wrist.
"You let yourself get possessed and did that to Mai?" He paused for a while and looked down. "I already gave up on her years ago, since you obviously was the leading man in this race, Naru."
Naru wasn't able to comprehend what he meant, he has always given way to his older twin. He pinched his node bridge and shook his head.
"If you really die, I don't know what will happen next, Naru"
"You can have the life that you deserve Gene." The younger twin smiled.
Mai walked outside the hospital room as Gene slept. She was about to buy lunch when all of the sudden the nurses ran to the emergency room. When she stepped out the hospital, she saw an ambulance when it was opened she saw Lin jumping out of it, the door swung a little bit wider. Mai covered her hands on her mouth with a gasped as she saw Naru lying on the ambulance stretcher.
"Taniyama-san." Lin walked to her as the nurses gently pulled the stretcher out.
"Naru… Lin! What happened?" Mai didn't look at him, she was in total shock when she saw the raven haired man inside the ambulance, and tears were starting to flood her eyes until it fell off. Lin looked down and muttered. "He used his PK. We found a donor card in his coat. The police is still locating the car he used." Lin pulled out the donor card wrapped with a plastic and showed it to the young brunette.
"This is…" Mai soon realized that he was trying to commit suicide to donate his eyes to Gene.
"I know that I'm not part of whatever you guys are going through..." Lin paused and touched her shoulder slightly bent down. "But, I don't think that Naru deserves a bad ending."
Mai slowly walked back to the hospital room hoping that Gene would finally wake up, she gently bent down her back leaning against the wall and her hands on her face as she cried silently at the corner of the room.
Gene and Naru took their time in the void, when one of the twins felt a sudden change in their soul and a beam of light heading for him. That twin nodded while the other one was frozen. Until finally, the chosen twin walked towards the light ahead to finally end his journey.
