"I want… to be with You, Mommy and Daddy. Big brother" After Akira said this to me she passed out. Here my mind began to fade and then I thought to myself, is this really where I'll die? Forget me but what about Akira? She doesn't deserve this, even if I deserve to suffer she doesn't deserve to die like this! She's done nothing wrong! GOD, I don't know if you can hear me but even if it's with the little life I have left I refuse… to let things end here
"Do you hear me?! It's not going to end like this! Not here, not now" I push myself up gradually though the people running into me make me lose my balance I manage to find my ground and start to press onward. While slowly start to reach my parents they finally have me in sight and they call out to me and Akira, my face is covered in blood and wounds from being stepped on, my body in intense pain, I cradle my sister in my broken left hand and ignore the pain, my blood trickles down my face and falls on Akira's red soft cheeks. She wakes up with a worried look on her face and calls out to me softly
"Big brother?"
I return with a smile and shut my eyes saying to her
"Don't you worry Akira, big brothers going to get you to Mommy and Daddy"
The stamp doesn't stop. People continue to run into me but I remain undeterred. At least I was
"Augh"
I screamed and looked to my right and noticed someone had stabbed me in the shoulder with a fork. The pain that I managed to keep in check overwhelmed me and I fell on my back as the trampling continued I looked up and noticed my parents were tackled and trampled upon too. I concluded that this was it for us and was comforted by the thought that we all died together as a family when suddenly Akira, my mother and my father began to glow. Her whole body turned golden but, she wasn't the only one who was experiencing this and neither were my parents, those who weren't a part of the stamp or jumped in the lake were all glowing and just when it looked as though there was some sort of climax they all collapsed and the glowing stopped. Akira's glow was the last one to go out, she inhaled and exhaled, inhaled and exhaled, inhaled and exhaled and then… she stopped breathing altogether
"Akira?"
I said hesitantly, gently tapping my sister's body
"Come on Akira if this is a joke it isn't funny" I started to tap her shoulder as gently and yet as hard as I could
"Come on Akira this Is no time to fall asleep we have to go wake up! Come on Akira you have to wake up"
I shook her but nothing, I yelled at her but nothing, I grabbed her and even slapped her face a few times but nothing. Just then as my hands slid down her arms I noticed her body had gone cold. That was when it hit me… That my little sister is dead
"No"
I didn't even notice when I started to cry but when I did that's when the pain rushed through my whole body and everything I didn't feel earlier on started to attack me all at once yet, the most painful thing was staring at my sisters cold dead and lifeless body. I started to whale over my sister's corpse though I tried to hold some of my tears back to not soak the beautiful gown she was wearing I couldn't bare it. Each time I would try to hold my tears in I'd feel this hanging pain in my throat stopping me from breathing. My eyes had become red hot from crying and itchy from cleaning my tears. It was so bad that the skin under my eyes had turned blood red and my eyes as well, at that point, I could have cried blood but what happened instead was that I started to lose my sight. It was only a little dark at first but not too long after I completely lost my sight. All I could see was the black abysmal pit of nothingness, the true face of despair. It was all so empty but I couldn't even care. There was nothing at that moment that could damage me any more than Akira's sudden death, I lost all my hope, all my faith, and all my interest in seeing this through. It meant nothing to me if I couldn't see it with Akira. I hadn't moved from Akira's side so I was still able to hold on to her so I grabbed her by her hand and kissed her forehead, then I said to her your big brother is going to join you soon enough. That's when I heard her voice
"But you can't do that, big brother"
The voice begins to giggle
"A-Akira? Is that… is that you?"
"Of course, it's me silly, it's your darling sister Akira"
"But how?"
"None of that matters right now big brother what matters is That you need to get up because you have a long and harsh journey ahead of you so now isn't the time to start resting"
"But!"
"Shhhhhh"
She says as I feel the warmth of her finger touch my lips
"That's enough said big brother, let's open up those eyes so that you can see clearly"
I felt the warmth of my sister's embrace on both sides of my head. It was a warmth unlike anything I had felt before, I was so taken by it but what had me more was the sudden healing I received when she kissed both my eyelids gently.
"There was never a kiss I got from you… that was this warm"
She had a warmth to her, she knew how to always calm me down and that was one of Akira's superpowers she always believed her kiss could heal anyone even their hearts. But this? This was taking that literally
"Tee hee"
