6 tattoo

"Your world is coming to an end"

She said looking at me directly.

I couldn't speak, but my head was filled with questions.

I was very afraid.

Very anxious.

I felt her words were terrifying to the bones, but what's worst they looked very honest.

I was confused by her referring to the world.

Is it like you are going to die but in a polite way?

Or is it like this whole universe is disappearing?

"Now let's get to the point"

The atmosphere suddenly changed.

It felt like that dark fog started approaching more and more.

"You can change the way this world is going."

She continued.

"You must find Aletheia and… kill him"

Kill him?!

This woman is sure insane!

People usually have a hard time killing a bug now she wants me to turn into a murder?!

"When you woke up you should stay with Yami even after you lose your ring"

That's sure is easy for her to say, but I will absolutely lose all my memory of this when I leave this place.

"I know what you are thinking of right now that's why I will draw this tattoo on your arm"

She approached me holding a sharp knife.

"Don't give me that look it will probably be worn out with few mouths"

Ugh!!!

I couldn't shout.

I couldn't move.

My legs were frozen, but that was the voice on my inside.

It hurt so much how the blade is drawing on my skin.

With time…

My vision kept getting hazier and hazier.

This whole world started disappearing before my eyes.

I couldn't tell if I am feeling this way because of the pain or is it this dark cloud is swallowing us?

And everything went…

Black.

"Hey!! did you die inside?"

I opened my eyes very surprised to find myself still in the hot spring.

My skin felt very wrinkly so I knew I've wasted a long time.

Not like it's my first time spending this much time in the bath.

Actually, I find it as a hobby.

Wait, is this deja vu?

Why do I feel like I said this before?

Wait...

There is something written on my hand.

It was a tattoo.

It looks very painful, but I don't feel anything.

The big problem is…

I can't understand it.

What kind of language is this?

We finished the cruise trip feeling very hungry to search for the nearest restaurant.

Wait, my ring!

"Sorry I forgot about something"

I tried to get up, but…

"stop."

A very quiet, but sudden voice came.

It was Yami's.

It was a real surprise because Yami never cares about things usually.

It MUST be something very important.

She took my hand and we head outside.

"What is the meaning of this?"

She had a very serious look on her face.

What is she talking about?

I started feeling very doubtful of myself.

"What?"

"I mean the tattoo on your hand"

"Right now tell me from where did you get it?"

I looked at my hand to notice that it wasn't even that obvious.

How did she even notice it?

"Frankly, I have no idea as well"

I was very lost I couldn't understand a single thing.

"Show it to me"

I opened my sleeves and the whole tattoo now is obvious.

Yami was looking at it moving her mouth.

That's not real.

"Do you understand this?"

Her face was very pale, but it turned paler to look a little worrisome.

"Do you usually wear a ring?"

Is this a joke?

I thought it was as obvious as the sun.

like she noticed the tattoo and never noticed the ring?

"Yeah.. why all of a sudden?"

"I was about to get back to search for it I lost it"

"I see"

She replied

"What is this all about I'm completely lost"

I looked at her trying to understand the condition.

"We have to leave this place as soon as possible"

"Why?! What's going on?"

"Listen if I started babbling about the condition we are in It might be too late.

"I have a good plan you tell the others that my dad is in the hospital and I need to get back now to be with him and I rushed back to the hotel to pack my stuff"

I lost my temper and said.

"The hell are you serious?? You are going to lie about something like that?"

"listen I understand that you are full of questions, but it is way serious than it looks"

" I promise to make things more clear later on just obey me once."

At that moment I felt like I had no other choice.

"Alright then"

I was about to take off in a hurry, but she stopped me.

"one last thing"

"just make things go very quietly."

Yami left before me

Then the rest of us head straight to the hotel.

Fortunately, our luggage wasn't that full and messed so, we almost took only an hour to leave.

We booked the fastest ship back to our city, but unfortunately, I lost my ring.

I have no memory I don't know who it belongs to, but all that I know that it meant a lot to me in the past.

We arrived almost at dinner time with the atmosphere in the ship being very dark and sad.

It was a lie for sure that her father was in a bad condition, but the fact that something serious happened didn't change.

We were all very hungry, so we split into two groups.

I and Yami went together leaving the rest to go to eat dinner.

"So, Yami where are we going now?"

She looked at me with a sudden straight calm face.

"Where else? we are going to eat dinner."

I stopped for a second.

What?

I absolutely misheard.

But...

It turns out she was serious.
