Mother said something that we were not normal children from the start.

Right now, mother is looking at us with sadness in her eyes, I can't stomach how sad she is right now, unknown forces taking away the happiness she had worked so hard for. I hate it.

Because I know what is like, for your happiness stripped away from you.

Anger filled me inside. I don't want her to experience pain like I did before this life.

Another explosion echoed through outside, my mother grabbed our hands and dragged us away from father.

"Go love! I will block their path!"

My mother panicked and tried to approach father.

"Go dear, unlike me, you are mortal and I can lose you anytime and I am not ready to lose you."

My father's beak face somehow morphed into a human face, handsome man, tanned with dark hair and sharp nose, pure sign of him really belonging to the desert.

My mother started crying and embraced father with desperation.

"Do not worry love, Survive and I will always comeback to you."

His golden hand brushed mother's face with such gentleness. Father kissed mother's forehead, a proof reassurance.

Just watching them here in the sidelines, breaks my heart.

Mother's face fell into deep sadness and fear but father nuzzled her nose, to assure her that he will always be there for her. No matter what happens. A little happines I wish I had the luxury of. Father pushed her gently, insisting for her to go.

Beside us in the window, a monster perched heavily on the sil, screeching so loud that thought I went deaf. The thing looks like a meat bag all stitched back together, blades stuck on its back, its legs are also blades stitched on the meat bag. Then it dawned on to me.

It's a demon.

It was now looking or turned it's head or what it looks like a head to our direction. Mother was quick to jump in front of us blocking the demon away from us. It didn't look happy though. The thing screeched loud and lunged itself towards our mother. The scared me just froze and suddenly reminded myself that this is my piece of happiness. My mother about to be attacked by a sack of meat with blades, about to mar my mother's beautiful face.

So in full automatic mode, my frozen five year old body moved to block the attack for my mother. Catching that huge blade, the thing just sIiced through my face.

"IZUNA!!"

Shit, my body fell back, someone caught my fall and suddenly my face felt numb.

PUP?! What is going on?!

Voice... it's you again.

I heard mother's crying and suddenly a fabric tearing in the background. I can't see, my other eye... its blurred... the otherside ... it's all black...

PUP?! TALK TO ME!

I felt something on my face, I think they're binding it.

"Mother! There is too much red! Too much red!"

Voice... I'm never meant to be happy... am I?

...

They're taking it away again... my happiness...

This was not supposed to happen...

Maybe me being born is not supposed to happen...

Then in the background I heard so much screeching, endless slicing, though I wish I could see. I felt someone hug me.

"It's gonna be okay, Zuna, It's gonna be okay... Big brother is here! Big brother will protect you!"

"Aniue..."

It just came out of my mouth... wonder what that meant?

Voice... I think I'm dying ... I can't see anything anymore...

Pup!! You have to hold on! I will come for you!

Why am I always so unlucky?

Everything fell too in my past life, I guess it's also fated to happen here too.

Then why am I born again?
