For the continuation
A knock on the door made my silver eyes flicker, but only a bit. "Captain, we need your memory manipulation powers." The voice was thin as glass. I could tell the person regretted asking me as soon as they did.
Next, a bang resonated from the other side of the door. "How dare you talk to captain when she is feeling like this!" Even with the louder tone, I could tell they were also feeling pain. A pain that I have caused.
It's not the only pain I have caused throughout the years, yet I still can't do anything about it.
Some people say death is mercy… there is no such thing as a merciless death. How ludicrous. Because when that person dies, they aren't the ones in pain. Their loved ones, the people who could only sit back and watch are the ones who are in pain.
Grief.
Depression.
Guilt.
Those are only a few things that come with the deal death forces on you. I've seen it all, the second face humanity wears. Sometimes it's to give fake smiles, other times it is to lie. But every time, it's to hide.
You can never get used to death, it makes it impossible to. I've lost all my family… some by choice… others not so much. You would think by now people would understand how contagious pain could be. But no. That isn't how humanity works. To them, one light burning out is a blank space in their mind that they can't fill in.
Even with the numbness casted over my body, I can still feel the sting of tears swelling in my eyes. The water flowing down my face tasted bitter, not salty. My own tears are mad at me for the amount of blood on my hands.
There isn't any innocence in my eyes anymore. Only a dim silver that fades slowly. Not seeing any color, not red, not green, only black and white. But then again, that is how the world sees it… so why can't I see it that way? Why does it irk me, annoy me, make me feel crazy? I used to not care. I used to only see the world in black and white. But then a new color was added… red… a blood-soaked crimson.
Some say red symbolizes hope, but what is hopeful about blood? Are the screams that come with it songs to god? The pleads, begs, tears, wounds. What can be hopeful about that? Well, I found the answer to that question when I met a certain redhead. Three of them. But one is now dead, and the others are in pain.
Pain that I have caused and still can't fix.
I looked towards the small box by my right. 'After the war.'
You kept your promise Dagger, yet you still think you did bad? How is that possible? She is alive, Red is alive. That is what matters, that is what always mattered. "Thank you." I muttered through my soundless cries. After the statement, my jaw wired shut again. My gloved hands clutched the paper in my hands. The braid over my chest laid on my exposed arm.
There it is again, red. Red liquid bled out of the cuts I placed on my limbs. I looked at them with no emotion, as I always did. My orbs then looked at the note in my hands.
From Dagger
You were the best assistant I could ask for. If you got this, or if you read the paper, you know I'm dead. So, I couldn't keep one of the three promises, but the other two are kept safe. She doesn't know you're alive, and she still has her way.
But, I think you should tell her. Not like you listen to me anyways. I have been telling you that for years after I broke your little memory spell. Anyways, these are my last words, let me tell you something important.
Thank you, you got me through the years as well. I love you… little sister. I can finally call you that without being hit! You are like a sister to me though… and all my siblings. Stay safe ok? Thank you for everything.
To~ My little sister, Trafalgar D. Water Blue.
/======================================================================/
Yeah... before anyone comes at me, she is literally in the first scene that shows Dagger. I didn't change much detail about her so... if you guessed she was alive, congrats.
The next fanfic is called Blue Ashes If you can't guess who it is between, I'll give you a hint. He has a freckles and a big mouth.
