"Akane!!" I could hear my mother yelling and running. Everything around me felt strangely warm. "Get up!! We have to go, now!!" I heard a thud downstairs. Did mother fall? I ask myself.
I couldn't really breathe properly. The air didn't smell like the normal Underground air. It smelled kinda like smoke. Smoke?SHIT! My home must be on fire!!! I instantly woke up with the thought of my home being on fire.
I threw some water onto a random shirt from my closet and tied the shirt around my face. I unlocked the closet that contained my late father's 3DMG and attempted to put it on as fast as I could. I could hear yelling downstairs and more thuds.
"PLEASE DON'T SHOOT ME!! PLEASE!! I HAVE THE MONEY I'M SORRY THAT I DIDN'T PAY YOU PLEASE!!"
Was that mother yelling? I thought to myself. I finally got my 3DMG on and I went down the burning stairs.
When I got to the bottom I saw my mother on the ground, holding her hands in front of her, as if to protect herself. Her face was full of horror.
"PLEASE DON'T SHOOT ME!!"
BANG BANG
I heard two gunshots and my mother wasn't screaming anymore. There was blood coming from her head and she was on the floor.
"SON OF A F*CKING B*TCH!!!" I yell at my mother's killer. One of the other attackers run and me but I use my 3DMG's harpoon and stab them straight through their stomach. They stumble and then fall to the floor dead.
I had a smile on my face. I felt insane. I probably was.
"Why the actual f*ck did you kill my mother, you b*tch," I asked the killer.
"Oh sweetie, she owed so much money because of the drugs that she got from me!! That's why!!" the killer said to me.
I begin to run at him, one of my swords in my hands. I harpoon him with my gear in both of the shoulders, bringing him closer to me. I then proceed to stab him in the chest, killing him.
I put my sword away and I run out of my burning home. I tear the wet cloth on my face off and I use my harpoon to get onto the roofs. I keep on running, looking for the familiar building where my cousin Isabel lives. Thoughts are going through my mind at 100 miles per hour.
I had finally gotten to her home; I was on her roof.
I jumped down and rushed into the house without knocking. Then...
THUD
Now, there are two men restraining me on the floor.
Akane Arai's mother was killed when she was 17. That same day, she met the person that would become the love of her life; all thanks to her cousin, Isabel.
