Being Human
I blinked and squinted at the bright light above me.
"Kisada-san? Hey! Wake up, are you alright?"
When my eyes adjusted I looked over to my right, Haru sat on a stool besides my bed and she had no string around her neck... strange, in the photo she had a red string tied around... Ah! I gripped my head in pain.
"Kisada-san!" Haru shoved a cup of water in my face and I accepted it gratefully.
"T-thanks." I muttered before drinking all the water in large gulps.
"There's more water if you need it." She said with a warm smile and I nodded in response; Haru fidgeted in her seat. "Kisada-san... do you remember why you passed out?"
"Erm..." Of course I remember, I was busy killing people- "Not really. Could you tell me Miura-san?" It couldn't hurt to become closer with a person who was familiar with my murderers. The string theory... No. It's just my imagination that Haru is someone I have to kill. No string means no killing that person.
She looked surprised (not that I blame her) but her stare was beginning to make me sweat and then the bell went. "Hahi! I have to go back to class. The nurse is in the other room, bye Kisada-san."
"Wait!" I yelled. "Could you give me the homework if there is any please? I don't really have any friends anymore."
"Sure!" Haru had tense shoulders as she smiled at me and left. I sighed, that headache again... well no use crying over spilled milk. I concentrated on all the dead bodies (currently occupying the space where my portals were connected to) and counted 24 of the girls with black strings around their neck.
I jolted in shock when I heard a voice in my head. "It is Bermuda, had fun killing them?"
Baffled I just replied out loud. "Yeah, but..." I had totally forgot about making the deaths subtle.
"No worries, everything will appear as if nothing has happened to them and all memories will be erased of the incident by tomorrow morning." In a strange tone Bermuda continued. "Sleep, Yuriko." A heaviness that I had not felt in a long while fell over me and pretty much had no control over my body.
"Bermuda-sama. Shall I begin?"
"Immediately Alejandro." Bermuda had a grim determination to his posture as he supported Alejandro in his work.
The dead, slain girls all standing, lifeless and hollow... strings attached to their limbs, invisible to the naked eye; their clothing immaculate and bodies had no sign of holes.
"Ah, this one has promise Bermuda-sama much like the Mifune doll. Her name is Kana Shiromaki."
