I Miss My Humanity

by paraghoul

10 years after confronting Uragami on the roof, Shinichi's mother has been revived, but she is half-parasite and it's permanent. Although it is irreversible and she is despondent, Shinichi helps her cope and decides to tell her what he was hiding from her. Rated T for violence, mild suggestive themes, and mild language.

Nobuko turned to see Shinichi sniveling. Shinichi responded "I missed you so much, I'm just happy to have you back". Then two people, one male parasite and one wheelchair bound human girl were taking a stroll and saw Shinichi and Nobuko. The girl asked Nobuko "What happened to you for you to become like this?" Nobuko answered "All I know is that I was decapitated and losing control of myself and stabbing Shinichi through the heart". Shinichi reacted, "How do you remember stabbing me in the heart. You must have gained that parasite's memories." Nobuko answered " That makes sense". The man right next to the girl said " My name is Poroshu, what's your name?" Nobuko answered, "I'm Nobuko". The girl said, "My name is Michiko". Shinchi announced, "My name is Shinichi". Poroshu noticed Nobuko and SHinichi looked like they were hurt and said, "We need to get you both to a doctor."

Nobuko and Shinichi woke up at the City Hall and they heard Shinichi's phone ringing. He decided to answer the phone and said, "Dad, Your mother has been revived". Kazuyuki responded with an angry tone in his voice, "Shinichi! That is not something that you should ever joke about and you know it!" Shinichi said "I would never joke about this. I'm serious. She is alive come quickly. But Dad, I must warn you, she is no longer completely human which is going to be an adjustment for us and anybody that knows her". Kazuyuki said "I'll be there as quick as I can".

20 minutes later

Kazuyuki entered the City Hall searching for the room Noubuko was in. Once he saw Nobuko he said with elated tears "I missed you so much and I'm so happy to have you back even though you're not 100% the same".

After 3 days at the City Hall, Shinichi, Nobuko, and Kazuyuki went home. Nobuko went to the bathroom and saw herself in the mirror and was digusted by what was lookng back at her. Tears welled up in her eyes as she shouted "Why did this happen to me." She walked out the bathroom with pajamas on before Kazuyuki and Shinichi saw her crying and they both comforted her. "We still love you even though you are different from how you used to be".

Don't worry, things will get better in the story. Shinichi will tell his parents about Migi in the next chapter.
