Chương 6: Two Sides of a Coin and Two Sides of a Coin
{ 4 Days Ago, Before Aoi attempted his first suicide on the rooftop of his school.}
There was a boy, whose life was filled with nothing but torture. He would be a target of torture, and then he would inflict that same torture on someone else. it was a never-ending cycle he had lived with so far.
Weak and Strong has a little difference in them
After a beating, some stands back up with more strength and fight for their place in this world But you know? Not everyone gets stronger by a beating. There are also kind of people, Who never again would want to stand up again, From that beating.
Those who stand up again are known as Strong and those who couldn't gather their courage to stand up once again to face the world, are known as weak.
"EH! Freeloader!, Wake the fuck up! " shouted a man in his home.
There was a home, their neighbors always complained about them being too loud and noisy.
"Aha, so early in the morning! why they can't stay quiet and thinks for once about us? " said one of neighbor to his wife.
"You know, sometimes I even hear screams from that house. What could be happening there? " Said his wife while making coffee for her husband
" Like we care! just bring me my coffee, I am already late!" Answered husband to his wife
So, They didn't care about what was happening but they did care about the consequence of it- Which was loud noises.
{After two hours}
The boy from that noisy home walked outside in a high school uniform, On his way- He met his friend
"Hey! You are late! " Said his friend
"Yea-Yea, I know but it's not like I can do anything about it, I have to my part-time job early in the morning to earn my keep-sake! " replied the boy to his friend
"Tokugawa, You--Your, cheek- did he beat you again? What an asshole! " Said his friend while he looked a little worried
"Seimen! Didn't I tell you before to not talk about it? It won't do anything to talk about it, It...its gonna remind me more of it " (Tokugawa) With multiple expression on his face, Tokugawa replies to his friend Seimen
"Hmm, I think you should contact to some-sort of child abus... " Seimen was interrupted by Tokugawa
"Shut-the-fuck-up! Dude, If you said a single about it more, I'll fucking beat you to the pulp! " (Tokugawa)
"Aha! sorry, Don't get angry like this... Anyway, Let's run! we are already late! " (Seimen)
The reason why Tokugawa didn't ask for anyone's help was because of his little sister- She was still in elementary school and He knew he would not be able to support her even if he left the school for a job, The expense of renting a house, bills, food- He would never able to earn this much money as he is now (A 17-year-old boy). So, He endured everything on his own but that---That only made it worse for him.
{At the Launches Break, Behind the Main School Building }
Though There were times
" Did you get what I asked for? " (Tokugawa)
When others/his fellow classmates tried to give Tokugawa a helping hand, asked him to rely on them if something happens if he needs something.
"A-Uhh---Yes! here--- I stole them from my fath--Father. "
And Tokugawa just did that, He asked one of his classmates for cigarettes since Tokugawa couldn't buy them because of his age.
"Woah! you did it! Tokugawa, now can we enjoy ourselves! " (Seimen)
But Tokuwaga never once brought the real problem in front of anyone.
"Thank you dude, You are much help! now, shuuu-shuuu " (Tokugawa)
"T--Then, I will go to class. "
The boy left after giving cigarettes he stole from his father to Tokugawa.
Both of them, Tokugawa and Seimen sat down on the ground and started to smoke behind the Main School Building
"This--This is bliss. " (Seimen)
" Right? we should ask him for more tomorrow " (Tokugawa)
"By the way, Tokugawa- Why do you hate Aoi? I mean, we do always beat the guy but... Even though He doesn't show any sort of emotions, I starting to feel pity for him. " (Seimen)
"*Sigh* I don't know but whenever I see his face-- I feel like punching him"(Tokugawa)
"LOL, Damn right! though I do feel pity him that expressionless face of his, It really pisses me off too. Its like He doesn't care about anything at all, as if He.. He doesn't have to wo.." (Seimen)
" This is last year of high school, Only a few months... to go" (Tokugawa)
"Hmm.. " (Seimen)
"I'll have to go home today so, we won't be able to hang out after the school. " (Tokugawa)
"Eh?? Why? " (Seimen)
"I promised my sister to go out with her to watch a Mo...Movie. " (Tokugawa)
"Aha, Is that why? Right. I got it " (Seimen)
Seimen didn't ask anything else, nor he tried to force Tokugawa to hang out with him since He was well aware of Tokugawa loves his sister to the point where it could be mistaken for some other relationship.
These guys were really good friends. Seimen almost had the same kind of parents as Tokugawa, but in Seimen's case- They just neglected him, not beat him and Seimen ended up the path that he walks on now.
But, Both of them were bold and the future that awaits them isn't looking good for these two friends.
Tokugawa and Seimen Skipped rest of the school and Left for their Home
{Around 11:00 AM}
"Well, Then I will see you tomorrow- Tokugawa! " (Seimen)
"Yea, Sure. Bye " (Tokugawa)
Tokugawa Headed towards his home and when He was finally Home
"I'm Ho... " (Tokugawa)
Tokugawa was greeted by a flying shoe on his face
"Where the fuck is my money? Did you steal it? You-- " (Father)
"Uh? Why would I? " (Tokugawa)
Tokugawa's head started to bleed from a small cut caused by the shoe, Though it was just a small cut but for s---
"Don't lie, you! give me back my money, Right now! " (Father)
"But... I DIDN'T FUCKING STEAL YOUR MONEY!! " (Tokugawa)
Being accused as a thief, Tokugawa lost himself in anger and unfortunately shouted out loud towards his abusive father.
"You.... " (Father)
With that word, Tokugawa father picked up the table phone which was on a table just beside him and ran towards Tokugawa while he shouted " YOU UNGRATEFUL BASTARD! " and started to hit Tokugawa on his head with that table phone, Tokugawa covered his head with his hands but... He lost consciousness when the side of his head was hit by the phone which inflicted damage on his bulging vein
When Tokugawa lost his consciousness, His father quickly started to check Tokugawa's pocket and found a few dollars, the money Tokugawa had earned from his part-time job. with that money, Tokugawa's father left the house, Tokugawa was bleeding, Internally.
{20Min Later}
"Brother, I am H..O...m?? BROTHER! "
Around 20min later, Tokugawa sister came home from her elementary school, excited to go out with her brother to watch a movie, excited to see her brother but she was greeted by-- Her brother was lying on the ground, unconscious and there was dry blood on his forehead- The moment she saw her brother, she knew that it was her father who did this.
"Brother! wake up, why won't y..you *hick*.. wake up? pl..please, I won't ask for *hick* cho..chocalate anymore.. " (Tokugawa's Littler Sister- Suzuki)
She tried to wake her brother her up but Her brother-Tokugawa didn't answer.
On that fateful day, Tokugawa Died. The caused of death, Internal bleeding, head trauma.
.
.
.
.
.
But that did not end of Tokugawa but It was the beginning... Tokugawa had the far greater purpose of his birth which will be followed by his death.
"My.. Dear Sister, I'm Sorry.. I'm so sorr... please forgive me" Said Tokugawa while he was floating above his body, looking at his sister- Both of them were crying and were not able to see each other, They were so close yet so far from each other, This is what death is.
{15min Earlier}
Tokugawa woke up from his sleep.
"What I've done?! How could I? She was waiting for me god damn it! Why did I have to shout??! YOU FUCKING MORON! " (Tokugawa)
The moment he woke up, He was engulfed by Anger, Sadness and regrets. Because, The moment he opened his eyes again, He knew.. Without even looking at himself, He knew-- He had died.
"You.. Fucking..Moron..Why? did.. You do that? Just why? " (Tokugawa)
There was no one else he could rely on for his sister's care. It was only himself, whom he could truly rely on. Tokugawa was aware of the harsh reality that one has to face in this world if there no one else to rely on, He was well aware of it. The truth is, His friendship with Seimen was for this exact reason.
{Present- The Time Tokugawa's Sister saw Tokugawa's body and started crying}
"My.. Dear Sister, I'm Sorry... I'm so sorr... please forgive me"
When Tokugawa was crying over his own body with his sister, He heard a voice calling out for him
"Tokugawa." said the voice
Tokugawa looked up while his eyes were filled with tears and had become red
"You are not dead, not yet. " Said the voice
"Wh..What do you mean? Stop t.." asked Tokugawa.
Tokugawa was sure that he had died, There was no way that he was still alive- He knew it somehow but He didn't realize that How he was able to hear this voice and how this voice was able to talk to him and when he did realize
"WHO ARE YOU? Answer me! How can you talk to dead? Aha! never mind that, Please let me talk to my sister! I beg of you, please! " (Tokugawa)
But the voice didn't answer.
"Pl..Please, Let *Sob* me talk.. for the l..last time, I wanna talk to her" (Tokugawa)
"I see, you desire to talk to your little sister? I can grant your wish but... There is a condition." (Voice)
Tokugawa had already given up on the hope but when he the voice says that his wish could be granted-- He became inpatient
" But what??! I will accept anything even if it is hell! " (Tokugawa)
Tokugawa's action later would result in many deaths.
"You are considerably obedient. Well, you are a mere human. The condition is simple- All you have to do is Kill a person. Will you do it? " (Voice)
Without even second thought, Tokugawa instantly replied
"YES! I WILL! Just let me.. " (Tokugawa)
"Such..Trash..Why do.. I have to do this.. " (Voice Mumbled)
"Eh? What?! " (Tokugawa)
"Repeat These words, 'Dear, God of Death- Adger Kichiro, I wish to return to my former life by Accepting your request.' " (Adger)
"Is that all??! " (Tokugawa)
"Yes, That is al... Aha, no--I forgot to mention, If you talked about this to anyone, Your sister will die. " (Adger)
"HUH!? How can I talk about this to anyone? I am already dead! God damn it! I just wanna Apologize to my little for the last time! " (Tokugawa)
"You don't understand, Dead people cannot interact with mortals nor they can talk to each other thus I am gonna revive you so.. Just tell me do you accept it or not? Time is running out, Tik-Tok, Tik-Tok " (Adger)
"I ACCEPT! " (Tokugawa)
"Then come on, Hurry up! " (Adger)
Tokugawa looked at her little sister for a moment, She was still crying and Then Tokugawa repeated those words.
"Dear, God of Death- Adger Kichiro, I wish to return to my former life by Accepting your request" (Tokugawa)
"I, Adger Kichiro, God of Death- Give You Permission To Return! " (Adger) -This is embarrassing.. System, send him already.
With this, The next time Tokugawa Blinked, He was already in his own body.
"huh? Brother!! " (Suzuki)
The moment Suzuki saw Her brother opening his eyes, She tightly hugged him--Scared to let go, Thinking He would leave her alone if she let him go now.
"I'm Sorry brother*hick*... I won't again ask anything to you, please*hick*.. stay with me" (Suzuki)
"I won't... and I'm sorry... " (Tokugawa)
Tokugawa was confused, Still unable to grasp on what just happened- Out of body experience that he had, It felt like a bad dream to him-- But That doesn't mean that he thought of it as a dream since He knew, That He did die and Returned to back to life with the help of-- Adger, The God of Death and Now, He had no choice but Kill a person and That person was--
{Next Day}
Their Father didn't come back home last night nor Tokugawa and Her sister went to watch any movie. Tokugawa went to his part-time job as always and then went to school after dropping her sister to her School...(Suzuki's School is not far from home so, Suzuki insists on going alone to the school and He allowed her to go alone but today was different, He dropped her sister school first then came to his own High School)
Tokugawa wasn't speaking much and kept an aura of silence around himself and Seimen noticed it so, He asked Tokugawa while they standing in the hallway
"Hey, Tokugawa-Is something wrong? You not answering to my question properly and just hmming? " (Seimen)
Tokugawa answer with "hmm"- Tokugawa was lost in his thoughts, still thinking about yesterday's incident.
"Dude! are you kidding me? " (Seimen)
"Seimen, Do you think y...*Sigh* Nevermind.." (Tokugawa)
"Huh?" (Seimen)
"So, what you were saying? " (Tokugawa)
{5Min Later}
" Oh-ho, you talking about that? " ( Tokugawa)
"Yea, That was hilarious. the way you opened the door of girl's changing room and shouted -Pantieman have arrived to grab--Hahaha- " (Seimen)
They were having a fun conversation of their past but the only who was actually enjoying was Seimen-- While making up something, Tokugawa started thinking about what to do and How he should do it, How he should...
-Damn it! I might have enjoyed beating him but... To Actually kill him? That's just (<--Tokugawa thinking)
But he had no choice but to do it.
" Lol, that was a long time ago. At that time we were in middle school" (Tokugawa )
-He will be coming by anytime soon...
" By the way, did you see Mitsuhashi? How he always- " ( Seimen )
" get behind us, I know right. it's pathetic " ( Tokugawa )
-Come on Tokugawa! You have to th.. Wait, This might work!
" Putting a fake smile on his face, thinking that we don't know anything. I hate that Mitsuhashi " ( Seimen )
" Don't worry, one day he will show his true intent. until that day comes, Aoi will have to entertain us " ( Tokugawa )
The person Tokugawa was ordered to kill was none other than Aoi Kichiro.
-I have to start talking about Aoi! In that way...
" Isn't this great? he doesn't cry nor show any sort of expression on his face. we can enjoy all we want and never feel guilty. Oh, There is he is with his apathetic face " ( Tokugawa )
So, Tokugawa started making a plan. A Plan, To kill his fellow classmate- Aoi.
"Hey! Where do you think you are going without greeting Tokugawa and me?" ( Seimen, Grabs Aoi's shoulder )
-I'm sorry, Aoi. But You will die by my hands If I don't then my little sister...
When Tokugawa was apologizing in his mind and trying to justify what He was about to do-- He Looked At Aoi
" Let him go, Seimen " ( Tokugawa )
He saw four shadows standing behind Aoi, Guarding The Person He intends to kill. Their Killing intent towards Tokugawa was clear as the sky- The moment Tokugawa saw those four shadows standing behind Aoi, He knew-- He wouldn't even able to put a scratch on Aoi, let alone kill him.
The person, Aoi- Who had always been weak and shy towards others suddenly had these four shadows standing behind him--- This person was not the same Aoi that Tokugawa had bullied before.
" eh? Wh-- " ( Seimen, Looks at Tokugawa's Terrified face )
Seimen took off his hand from Aoi's shoulder without any question, Seimen had never seen Tokugawa this terrified
" Aoi, we will see you later " ( Tokugawa )
With that, Tokugawa lost all the hope of Killing Aoi.
But a chance came.
{Luanch Break}
Seimen was confused by Tokugawa's action 'Why'd Tokugawa asks me to let go Aoi? ' Tokugawa never once has done that before so, Obviously, Seimen was worried about Tokugawa's mental condition or If Tokugawa has somehow changed 'no! I can't let him become...Weak. ' Afraid to let Tokugawa become someone who instead of bullie becomes a victim of bullies. Thus, Seimen thought of a plan and Called Tokugawa to the roof
When Tokugawa came to the rooftop of his school, but before opening Roottop's gate He noticed a bat lying beside the door, It was already covered in a blood 'Did someone kill some sort of an animal with it? I should take it ' while thinking that He took the bat and then opened the door- He found Seimen talking Aoi.
'What the hell is this guy doi.. Those shadows... There aren't here anymore? huh? wait... Aoi's uniform, It is different than the morning. This is my chance! '
While Seimen was distracting Aoi, Tokugawa thought if Seimen keep on distracting than He might able to hit Aoi with a surprise attack and kill him. So, He did. He sneaked upon Aoi and Hit Aoi on his head.
But Aoi didn't fell on the ground
" Huh? Blo...d?" ( Aoi )
When Seimen saw Tokugawa hitting Aoi on his head with a bat, He was dumbfounded by Tokugawa's actions and Ran towards the door- Not to ask for help or anything like that but to check if someone saw it
" Who said you could speak, Bastard! " ( Tokugawa )
-Please die already!
"I...I..m...so..y..." ( Aoi )
With a broken voice, Aoi started apologizing if he had done something.
-Why are you apologizing? please... just diee..
" Don't you dar- say a word " ( Tokugawa )
With those words, Tokugawa once again hit Aoi on his head-- and this time, Aoi fell on the ground like a rock
"I.. " (Aoi)
But that was not enough to kill Aoi, So, Tokugawa hit him again and Again on Aoi head.
" you emotionless bastard! Just Die! " ( Tokugawa ) -If that saves me and my sister! just die already fucker!
Many more hits, Aoi was finally dead or that's what Tokugawa thought..
Seimen came running back to Tokugawa but instead of asking Why he had done this? he asked
" Is he dead?" (Seimen)
There was no remorse of pity in Seimen's words. At least not for Aoi.
Aoi Kichiro was just an Apathetic Person, To Seimen, Aoi was nothing but a robot in human's skin that finally broke.
Out of breath, Tokugawa replied with little guilt he felt
" *Pheff *Pheff Yea. I think so, let's get out of here before anyone sees us " (Tokugawa)
.....
"All I can say, They were good friends who supported each other, Even when one of them killed an innocent person " (Unknown)
"So, That's how you see it? " (Unknown #2)
"Yes. After all, Regarding Master, I do feel anger and sadness but... Don't you think their action was required to.. Wake up Master? " (Unknown)
"But that doesn't mean, You don't bear any responsibilities towards Master's Death. Wouldn't you agree? Adger Kichiro - The God of Death." (Unknown #2)
" I do Agree, Mikhail. I do agree. I am responsible for the pain that Master felt- Please, Do give me a proper punishment. " (Adger)
"Even if what you have done was for the master's sake but it was not something Master wanted. Forgive me but I shall send you to the prison of Gods. " (Mikhail)
"I accept your punishment, Please take care of the Master. " (Adger)
" I will. " (Mikhail)
....
"What a mess, Sending a person across timelines to killing master? What Adger has done was truly wrong but... If Adger hadn't done it.. I am sure He wanted to save me from the guilt of Killing Master with my own hands. Aha, I will have to go to the Master's side now. How long its been since I last talked to Master? 10 years? or 100 Million years? " (Mikhail)
