"Morphine"
By: straywolf0
Morphia, also known as morphine, its quite an interesting drug isn't it? They use it in hospitals, as it's purpose is to ease pain and induce sleep, but what if they gave a person too much of this certain drug? The unfortunate person would never wake up again, submerged in a painless slumber for the rest of eternity…there is no cure for the disease called death.
Bakura Pov.
Holding this lifeless body of my hikari, the once innocent boy I once knew, seeing the death of someone special to me isn't new. My past has always involved death, my family, my friends, everything I held dear to me. My sanity. Leading me into a life of thievery and murder, of torment and misery. Drowning in my own sadness, in my own darkness.
/Flashback/
"I should have known" cursing to myself as I awoke from my slumber for more than a millennia "I would have been better off dead, than be with a righteous saint….this still must be part of my punishment"
"Huh? Who are you?" my reincarnation exclaimed back
"What the hell you care?
No answer
"What lost your spirit already?"
"Who are you?"
"Hikari-baka, how naïve can you be?"
"What did you call me?"
No answer
And that's where the abuse started, I took my anger, my frustration, out on you, but I had enough control not to kill you, I knew I would once again be sealing my own fate in the Ring.
/End Flashback/
I've stopped my abuse long ago, to tell the truth I really did want to stop. My outlook on life slowly changing, I learned to care again, like in my early childhood, I learned to enjoy and appreciate life again... but I guess you didn't see the change in me, you still thought I hated you, but the truth was, I grew to love you. I protected you because I didn't want you hurt. I didn't want to corrupt you, I didn't want you to become like me…but somehow you were, but I was foolish enough to ignore this, giving myself false hope that you weren't.
Fallacious was I to be denying what was truly there, you already took a blade to your skin, wanting to feel pain, something I never wanted to give you again. You were already corrupting yourself, already surrendering to the darkness…my darkness…the hikari I once knew, isn't the hikari I now see, those once clear childish eyes, with sparkle of happiness and life, are just two pools fogged with darkness and hate… my darkness…my hate… I can never bring back the innocent hikari I once had.
If I had only told you sooner, but my aisteru came too late, I can never change what is now before me… but this is the only peace I see in you, the peace you kept until death, you ended your existence and all I can do is but blame myself… as if I was the one who killed you.
I would have cried if I wasn't laughing…only when I could not laugh anymore was when the tears came. The last person I held close was gone…I am alone once again… no blood…no broken bones…a simple death caused by morphine, enough for an eternal slumber…the person I once hated, became the person I loved the most.
Only now do I realize that I need you more, than you needed me… the pain I once felt came back even more than the last… I lost the only light I had in the darkness of my life, wandering aimlessly in the dark… the last vile of morphine… I hope and pray it was enough. Having a small flicker of hope, to follow you until death… the only thought in my mind was seeing you again.
Love follows closely after hate…
As revelation closely follows destruction…
