Catch Myself Catching Myself (Underoath)


It's too late, I'm giving in. My life wasn't changing for the good like they said it would. My life took a drastic turn after my brother Roxas had gone on a killing rampage and murdered both of our parents. He wasn't sad or anything, but it hit me the hardest. Life was going good until then.

I had been going to therapy and I was in and out of the mental hospital. Roxas however, was in jail serving his punishment. How could he have done that wicked deed?! I wish he would just die or be tortured for the act of murdering my parents. I don't even consider him my brother anymore. No, he's not related to me, not in the least bit.

My rage had gotten out of hand as well. I would often get so boiled up in anger that I'd end up hitting the walls of my Therapy room. My fists bled. I was feeling something, something other than sadness. And that was hate and anger.

The darkness began running through my veins with every day that passed and I allowed it. The shadows crawling under my skin, the evil of it all. I had rage and I knew how to use it.

I had created a monster of myself. I was out of control. I was no longer Sora I was,

Vanitas the demon. I let him through my shell and over power me. My hands were covered in black and red and it began moving down my whole body, covering me in a body suit. My eyes were no longer blue, but a yellow. A glowing demonic yellow.

Before I knew it, I was on a rampage, just like my brother. The adrenaline was so overpowering that I didn't know what to do with myself. I let him take control of my strength and began killing off tons of innocent lives, including my therapist who was trying to help me. The crimson blood was trickling down my fists. I tore off the limbs of humans, leaving them to suffer on the ground. It was satisfying with the sound of every crack and crunch of their bones.

I had become a threat to the world.

"It has to stop… it has to... I can't let you win…" I muttered with the strength I had to overpower him to speak. I heard my demon chuckle at me. He knew I was powerless, I gave in too easily.

I felt the light start to grow in me, I can do this. I can fight him off.

"I can defeat you!" I yelled with all my power. He gasped in shock. I was going to overcome this.

I need to stop myself, but how can I when my demon is just that strong?

If he can't go down, then I may go down, taking him with me. It was suicide, yes. But it had to be done.

With the little bit of light I had in me, I took control of his right arm which was carrying the large red and black Keyblade in his hand. This is all I had left to do. With all my light strength I plunged the blade into my chest. I heard the demon cry out in agony.

I don't believe in giving in anymore. Today, I am no longer the same. Today, that demon will no longer control my mind. It's time to get him out of my head once and for all.

Suddenly, the suit I was wearing disappeared and my casual ones appeared. The Keyblade I had been welding vanished as it fell out of my chest and onto the ground along with rivers of crimson. My face planted against the hard ground as I lay in my own pool of blood. I could hear my demon begging for remorse. I wasn't going to let him win over me at my death.

I was dying but I was comforted at the fact that he was gone away from me on the inside, he couldn't win anymore.

I slowly closed my eyes as the lullaby of screaming and sirens had put me to an eternal rest.


Hmm…I just realized that this title really doesn't have to do with the plot. XD So far, I have found this one the most enjoyable to write.
