(A/N: Here's chapter eighteen! Sorry, for the long delay. I promise to finish this story and soon. There's only a few more chapter left.)
Scary Invitation
It has been weeks since the incident with my brother. No, I shouldn't call him my 'Onii-chan'. Tanaku tricked me! He lied to me! And most importantly…he murdered Tsuskio-chan! What the hell kind of brother would do that?! Destroy his own brother's life? Me and Tsuskio-chan… We were happy together. We were expecting to have a child together. We were going to live happily together. And all that was taken away because of that bastard Tanaku, and the rest of that damn Monozaki family.
Wait…! He's not Tanaku. I shouldn't be calling him that. That title belongs to me! After all, I was born first. I'm the true heir to the Monozaki family. I am Tanaku! The real 'Tanaku' is here, and real 'Naraku is the one locked up. Ever since I have claimed my rightful place…my head became so much clearer. Just from a simple name change…I feel power flowing through me. Power that will use to tear each and everyone of Tsuskio-chan's murderers into my little playthings.
I have decided that simply killing them isn't enough for me. No! They don't deserve a painless death! No, after the pain and misery they put my Tsuskio-chan through. Each… Each one of them deserve the cruelest and most vicious pain cast upon. So much pain that it will make hell feel like they are simply walking through hot sand.
I can feel my lips twisting into an evil, sadistic evil. I bellowed out into the heavens with a sickening, cruel laughter.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Go ahead and call me crazy. I don't give a damn! Go ahead and call me evil. Those who call me evil, don't know the meaning of hate. Those that don't know the meaning of hate, can't truly understand the meaning of love. For those who ridicule on the concept of love and friendship will burn in hell from my wrath, for they do not know the meaning of love and friendship. If for some reason…! If for some reason…any will dare to lecture me on love, I will turn around, and slaughter each one of their loved ones…so that they, too, can understand my hatred and despair!
I have already considered my next victim for my vengeance. That little brat… Hitoko! I have put a lot of thought into, and came to the conclusion…that other from my love's aunt and uncle as well as the Monozaki family and the rest of the village…Hitoko has played a major role in Tsuskio-chan's misery. If it wasn't for the brat's whiny and clinging, Tsuskio-chan wouldn't have become sick that day. She wouldn't have been mentally exhausted. She wouldn't have to work so hard for that stupid pest!
That is what Hitoko is! She is a pest! She is a thorn on Tsuskio-chan's side! She's a leech! And now Tsuskio-chan's gone, and she's still here?! Hell no! How dare that little bitch live! She feed on Tsuskio-chan's, and never did a single thing in return. She just licked her wounds, and lived. Unacceptable!
I already planned everything. I had everything in place. The villagers were beginning to become hysterical because the Miyoshi was demoned away. Heh! Demoned away by me, but they don't know that. And with their gullible minds, they never will.
I was getting hungry, so I decided to prepare a meal for myself. Just then… I heard a knock on my door. I opened it. To my slight surprise, it was Suno! What was she doing here? What was her reason for being here, especially so late at night?
I then took notice of the large bottle in her tiny hands.
"May I have some soy sauce, Tanaku?" Suno asked in a sweet and child-like voice. I brought my bottle. May I come in?"
I glanced around to see if anyone was nearby, hoping that no one was watching, and they set her up for this. I inwardly sighed in relief. I didn't sense anyone presence nearby, meaning Suno came here on her own. But that only served to confuse me more. Why would the head of the Hanuru family come here by herself?
Oh, well. Whatever suits her. If she gets captured while leaving my manor, it's not my responsibility. I could really care less about what happens to her. Lately, I have stopped caring about everything around me, including myself. I…I didn't care about living anymore. Ever since Tsuskio-chan died that day, I realized I died with her. This body here…is nothing more than a hollow shell of my former self.
I led Suno towards the diner. The whole thing felt really…strange. It felt…like I was being followed by a ghost, instead of an actual living being. I could barely hear her footsteps, even with my advanced hearing. I couldn't hear it because she matched my own with every step. Both our steps intertwined, and melted into one. It was…eerie. It was bizarre!
I showed her where we kept our spices and such, and what she do? That snot nosed brat sprays me eyes with some type of poison. My eyes start burning like hell! I don't know what happens, but I could feel the brat's form on top my own.
When I peeked her through half lidded eyes, I could see a syringe in her head. So, this was a trick? This brat was trying to kill me, huh? Well, I'm not going down without a fight!
During our struggle she sprayed that poison gas spray. I quickly covered my eyes to avoid the effects, but she was not so lucky. She started to cry out in pain as she felt the effects of the poison. I used this opportunity to flip her off of my.
After that, the battle was completely over. It was one sided on my part. Did the brat really think she could take me on? By herself? What a laugh! I had drugged with the syringe she was planning to use on me. Heh, that's what she deserves! To be killed by her own weapon!
I watched her spasm and squirm in delight. I wanted to see what effects this mysterious drug will have. Maybe I'll use it someday. But my impatience got the better of me. With a sadistic smirk, I told her of my desire of torturing her. My need…my craving to hear her every scream of agony and pain. I laughed, maniacally.
What she did next was unexpected, she had grabbed a knife for the counter. I only smiled at amusement as I witnessed her foolish attempts. Was she trying to threaten me? To keep my entertainment going, I decided to play along. However, what she said next was like vague haunting sound in my ears.
"I'm not going to allow myself to be tortured to death by sadistic demon. I'm planning to leave the stage on my own terms," she said. Her voice was hollow, completely devoid of emotion. It didn't sound child-like, at all. It held too much maturity for a little girl her age. It was like she was suddenly a full grown adult trapped in a body of a child. It was unsightly. Unfathomable. But strangely, I could now see it in her eyes. Tiredness. Emptiness. Ancient eyes.
Leave the stage? What the hell does that mean?
"Leave?" I mocked her. "Go ahead, and try. I dare you."
In split second, Suno stabbed herself in the neck with the knife, repeatedly. Blood was splashing everywhere. Some even got on my face and clothes, but I took no notice of that. I was too mesmerized by the sight before me as Suno practically ended her own life. She tore the rest of her neck with her nails. I could see the guts and gore underneath.
Laughter started to erupt from me as I watched her take her own life. It was such a beautiful sight. The head of the Hanuru family committing suicide right before my very eyes. Such a pleasure sight indeed!
Now, Suno was died. That's the third person to fall victim to my hands. Oni-baba, Miyoshi, and now Suno. Three people! And they are all the heads of the Three Great Families of Harazami Village. All of them dead by MY hands! I could only scream in delight.
"I did it! I won! I WON! I slaughtered everyone who killed my precious Tsuskio-chan! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
No one said nothing. There were a few hands shakes, but nothing more.
Kagome quietly turned the page.
(A/N: That's the end of chapter eighteen! I hoped you guys enjoyed it! To be honest, I was kind of drifting in and out while writing this, but I think it's okay. Now, Naraku is started to laugh, like a crazy, yandere person. I wonder how Naraku's yandere laugh will sound like. *shivers* Actually…never mind. I don't want to know…that much. Please read and review! Constructive criticisms are welcomed as well!)
