"nothing will make me happier than to die as i dream!"
YOUR EYES OPEN, REVEALING A WHITE ROOF.
you blink in confusion,
wasn't i on the train?
suddenly, a splitting headache goes through your head, you groan in pain slightly.
you shake your head and stretch slightly before hopping out of bed and out of the room, you seemed to be aimlessly wandering for a moment before freezing in your tracks.
sitting in front of you was touya and natsuo, they were both seated next to each other at the dining table and were talking about something.
your eyes widen in shock, natsuo turns around, "oh, [name]! good morning!" he smiles.
your eyes fill with tears and they both look at you in shock.
"what's wrong?" touya asks worriedly.
you burst into tears as you hug them both tightly, they both look at you with a look of shock, confusion, and worry.
"why are you crying [name]? did something happen?" natsuo asks.
you bring your hand sup to your eyes to wipe your tears, only to freeze slightly at the feeling of soft skin over your left eye instead of the usually jagged kind of feeling.
huh? where's my scar? wait, what am i talking about? what scar?
you shake your head, "i'm sorry, i don't know what happened..."
THE THREE OF YOU WERE NOW ALL SITTING AT THE DINING TABLE.
you look over to touya, "are your burns okay? they're not hurting too much, right?"
they both look at you in confusion, "what's are you talking about? what burns?" touya says confusedly.
you furrow your eyebrows, "i don't know... uhm, never mind"
you all turn to the door as your father and mother walk in, your eyebrows furrow in confusion.
"mother, you're home? and what are you doing with him?" you say in confusion.
they both look at you in confusion, "what are enough talking about, dear? since when have you called your father that?"
you blink, "i actually don't know.. i've been saying so many weird things today.."
natsuo nods, "just a little while ago she burst into tears when she walked out of her room"
rei looks at you in worry, "are you feeling sick at all?"
you shake your head.
your father sighs and raises his hand to pat your head, you flinch, he feels his hand back in shock.
you touch your head in confusion,
why did i do that? what's up with me today?
NOW, YOU WERE SITTING WITH SHOTO AND YIU WERE BOTH WATCHING TV.
he was smiling a nod laughing at it, you look over at him in confusion, but happiness "since when have you started showing so many emotions?"
his eyebrows furrow, "what are you even saying [name]? i'm always like this.."
you blink a ne shake your head, "i really don't know what i'm saying today.. i think inosuke-sama is getting to me.."
he tilts his head, "who's inosuke? and why do you address him with a 'sama'?"
you tilt your head, "uhm, i don't know.."
he looks at you with worry, "maybe you should get some rest.. you might feel better after?"
you nod, "alright, call me for dinner"
you bow and walk off to your room, shutting the door behind you.
you sigh and slip under the blankets on your bed,
what is wrong with me today?
you shrug and shut your eyes, falling into a deep sleep.
YOU LOOK FORWARD IN CONFUSION, STANDING IN FRONT OF YOU, WAS YOU.
except you were wearing some odd clothes, and you had a scar on your face. and your expression was monotone and blank.
the other you walks up to you and places her hands on your shoulders, "wake up. this is a dream"
your eyes widen, "none of this is real. it's the demon"
that's right! i'm in the train, all this.. it's fake!
YOUR EYES OPEN AGAIN, AND NOW YOU WERE SITTING AT THE DINING TABLE WITH EVERYONE ELSE.
you purse your lips,
that's right. this is just a dream.
"why aren't you eating?" your father asks you, you shake your head, "i'm not hungry" you say in a more monotone voice than 'usual'.
you look down at your bowl,
how am i supposed to get out of here? what do i need to do..
your eyes widen in shock as your sleeve catches on fire from pink flames.
and suddenly your whole body is engulfed in fire, everyone at the table screams.
"[NAME]!!" they all look at you in shock and worry.
you look down, you were now dressed into your demon slayer uniform and your katana was at your side.
you bring your hand to your face, your scar was back,
i'm waking up little by little.. that was nezuko's blood.. i could just tell.
"[name]! are you okay?!" fuyumi screams worriedly.
you frown, "i'm sorry. i have to go."
"what's are you talking about [name]?! what with that scar on your face?? and why do you have a katana??" touya shouts in worry.
you shake your head, "no.. none of you are real. i have to leave, i'm sorry."
your eyes fill with tears as you sit up and dash out of the house, ignoring their pleas for you to come back.
tears drop from your eyes as you run to nowhere, you had no clue where you were going, but you needed to find a way to wake up.
your speed slows a little as your far enough from the house, you were now in an alley somewhere.
you purse your lips,
how am i supposed to wake up??
"little sister, there i something you must cut."
your eyes widen and you look back, that was touya's voice. the real touya's voice.
your eyebrows furrow,
something.. i just cut? i have an idea.. but if this goes wrong, i'll die..
you take a deep breath,
if it will bring me back to real life, i must try it.
you take a deep breath and get on one knee, unsheathing your katana and bringing it to your neck.
you bite your lip and take a breath, squeezing your eyes shut and pushing it towards your neck.
YOUR EYES SNAP OPEN AS YOU GASP.
you bring your hand to your neck and breath,
i'm back in the train..
you look to forward and see tanjiro, who looks like he also just woke up, he was heavily breathing.
"tanjiro.."
his eyes widen and he looks to you, "are you alright??" he asks worriedly.
you nod, "don't worry about me."
you look to the right and see kyojuro choking a girl, you blink in shock.
you look to your wrist, only to see a rope attached to it, zenitsu and inosuke also had ropes attached to their wrists, but they had people on the other end.
who are they?
