Title: Revenge
Day #18: Akaba Himika sees her sons and thinks of nothing but vengeance
Akaba Himika remembers when she was a queen.
She remembers whispered promises of a world that would have been theirs as she stood next to Reo with little Reiji and her arms and smiled for the camera.
There is nothing now. All images of Akaba Reo wiped from their home. His name is only spoken in hushed tones by a boy that says it with hatred in his eyes.
Himika is not weak. She does not hold onto things lost to the past. Himika has a heart of a revolutionary and brains of a general. There's a reason she had been Akaba Leo's wife after all.
Reiji grows up cold and alone, and Himika pushes him on. He is her weapon, her spear, polished by experience and sharpened with apathetic cruelty.
Himika will not lose this war.
When Reira stares at her scared eyes, there is nothing left in her heart. It has been frozen from too many tears, too many nights up fearing for the world, and too many curses at the man who never looked back.
Reira is the sword that will break down Reo's beloved Academia and Reiji will be the spear she thrusts into Reo's heart.
