Dawn (1)

"What am I?" Within the silent night, the question pestering Kueri was getting louder. Even the chirping of all the small birds couldn't sound the same anymore. The girl couldn't cry, but inside her she felt her heart sobbing with red tears.

"Kueri, are you standing here again? Alone? Again..?" Her friend, Kuyumi was one of the only humans she was close to, it was like they were siblings.

Kuyumi sat closely, next to Kueri, opening her arms wide and closing her eyes. The girl fell in the arms of Kuyumi, imagining that she won't ever feel anything.

"I still wonder to this day, am I human?" Kueri turned her neutral look to the gorgeous angel while the moonlight was blessing the 2 children. "Or is the concept of human wrong for everyone else besides me?"

Kuyumi shaked her head. "You're a human, Kueri. It is not you that is wrong, and it is not the world that is wrong. Let's say... for example.." The girl stood up opening her arms wide.

"If someone would shoot me and take my life, is it their fault that I am dead or my fault? Is it their fault that they shot the bullet, or my fault that I stood there so they could shoot me?" Kueri started to think deeply the question, and came up with an answer quickly.

"The fault is mine, because I didn't protect you." Kuyumi sat down next to Kueri, petting her head while laughing.

"Buu! Wrong! The fault is noone's. The person that shot me would be an assassin, that needs money to keep his family alive, I stood there to take the shot so they could take the money. And you never knew an assassin was there didn't you? Not everything needs a reasoning, or it to be the fault of someone, Kueri." The girl started to grab her shoulders, shaking and clenching her teeth.

"This unknowingly.. This lack of knowledge, about who is right and who is wrong.. This uncertainity.. It irritates me! Just give me an answer already! Who is of fault.. The Assassin, You.. or Me?!" Kueri stood up, having a mad look at Kuyumi. The wind started to grow intensely as the deadly bloom of flowers was spreading in the air.

"I'm sorry Kueri. There is no answer..." Sitting down, Kuyumi started to whine as holding her knees at her face. A shot was heard as Kueri was falling down on the grass, green natural grass turning into a coat of red velvet as the screams of Kuyumi were heard.

"Kueri... How, How could this have happened... Not now.." It was too late after all, the screams of my friend were the last thing I have heard. I still don't remember clearly but, I don't want to remember at all. I started to see nothingness, everything went black. My hands, feet, my entire body was cold. I felt calm, no pain. Death is beautiful, I don't know why I haven't tried this yet...

I slowly felt my body getting colder and colder, until the antarctically wind of death was visiting my skin in the deep void. Will this end soon? Or will it get colder and colder? Like the whisper of the night? I had no whispers in my mind that moment, it was all fine. Kuyumi? The girl who is my friend? I miss her but, we won't ever see each other after all. There is no heaven, no hell, no purgatory, no valhalla, nothingness. There is just a black void where we spend our eternity forever.

"The Dawn is beautiful, isn't it. There are infinite shades of red, orange, yellow that the sun can take while its falling behind the horizon. When we fall behind the horizon as well, do we take a shade of a beautiful color? Bloom like the beautiful flowers? Or we just root like we are bacteria for living beings? What do you think, Kueri?" The question she asked me... I found an answer now.. We just root, we never take a beautiful color. Humans are beasts, they are meant to destroy. Is this... Our true nature? I am not a human anymore, I am just a dead soul.. I lived for a short time, but It felt like too much time. I remember writing a book some days ago, i just finished it. I called it "Ego", but I never could understand why I did that.

Was it my Ego in it? Was it all my mind in it? Who knows. But the hands are getting warmer as the cold wind is getting like an oceanic breeze. What is happening? I should be freezing in the White Ice of the Blizzard Dragon.

"Good Dawn, My lost child. Welcome to Heyamugen."
