Chapter 8: Hidden Meaning (Rewritten)

No one's POV

'Great...now where am I?' Y/n sarcastically thought to himself as he looks around his surroundings.

All around him he could only see a black void. There was not a single sound as far as y/n could tell besides his breathing. He looks down and noticed a small ripple, like a droplet hitting water, every time he moved his feet.

'...' Y/n simply stares at the ground in silence. However, what caught his attention was his reflection slowly materializing under his shoes. It stares directly at him with the same blank look he had. "..."

"Hi, y/n.~" The voice belonging to a familiar teenaged girl echos in the distance, followed by a ominous giggle.

"?!" Y/n looks shocked. He looks up and saw a girl staring at him, covered in blood as she held a knife in her right hand which was also covered in blood. Seeing her caused y/n to let out a quiet gasp as his eyes widen, stumbling back a foot or two. 'What the-?!'

The girl's body and height were pretty average. She stood at 5'6 and looked to be either 17 or 18. She wore a thick black leather jacket over a navy blue t-shirt. Around her neck was a metal chain with a sniper bullet, similar to y/n's, tied to the end of her necklace. Her navy blue skinny jeans were torn near the kneecaps. She wore black and white sneakers and black socks on her feet. She didn't have large breasts, but they weren't small either. They were the size to get a couple of girls jealous of her and a few boys eyeing her. Her hips weren't spectacular either. But, they could still get reactions from a person once in a while. She had long, pitch black hair that went down all the way to her back. She had a strand of navy blue hair dangling in front of her face that blocked a part of her left eye. She had a small black dot under the end of her right eye. Her navy blue eyes held almost no emotion in them as they stare at y/n.

However, when the two made eye contact, her eyes seemed to light up in excitement as she smiles.

"Hi, dear cousin!~" She says in excitement, her breathing becoming heavy after she giggles again. Blue flaming dust escapes her body and surrounds her as her palms were engulfed in blue flames and her mouth lets out blue flaming sparks and smoke.

"..." Y/n just stares at the girl, confused. 'L-Luna...?' Y/n tried to reach out for the girl, Luna, but another voice coming from behind made him freeze in place.

"You're weak." A child's voice sneers.

"..." Y/n remained frozen for a moment before starting to move. His right eyebrow twitches in anger. He grits his teeth as he turns around to the voice. There, he saw-. ""Brother"..." He mutters, venom filled his voice.

In front of him was his older brother, his face scratched out. Even though y/n knew his was his older brother, the person he was the child version of him, seeing as that was the last time he ever saw his brother. Behind his brother, the massive black blob starts to materialize and tower behind him. The boy looked more annoyed the longer the two stared at each other.

"I should have killed you the last time we saw each other." Y/n's brother says as flames rise behind him and his creature.

"..." Y/n grits his jaw tighter. He could feel his blood begin to boil the longer the two kept eye contact. Automatically, flames were summoned in his palms as a flaming aura surrounds his right eye as well. "I-."

"Look at you two..." A deep male's voice calls out from somewhere.

"!!!" Y/n stops talking, knowing the third voice as well. His flames suddenly disappear before he could turn to the voice. Not only that, but he felt something like a dagger stab into his back. His heart began to beat faster as it pounds on his chest. He grips his chest with everything he had with his hand as he felt his legs weaken. He felt his body gain a ton of bricks onto him. After a mere second, his legs gave in as he was shoved to all four by an invisible force. He grits his jaw to breaking point and his face showed both pure rage and fear. The sound of a pair of footsteps approaching him made him slowly lift his head up. He slowly looks up and saw someone he never wished to see again.

"F-father...!" Y/n mutters as he scowls. "You...bastard." He practically whispers, too weak to even raise his voice.

"..." A man stood two feet in front of him, looking down on him. Like y/n's brother, his father's face was scratched out as well. But, even with that, y/n could tell the man had a maniacal grin on his lips.

"This is a-all your fault..." Y/n sneers with hatred, though the man doesn't even flinch. Y/n tried to push himself back on his feet, yet even more weight crushes him, putting him in his place. "Ev-everything that has happened to the family is because of you..."

"..." Y/n's father doesn't say anything. He simply lifts his right arm slowly, opening his palm wide. As he did, his hand lets out a dark purple hue.

"..." Y/n stares at the palm with rage. However, he eventually gave in, knowing he couldn't do anything, and lowers his head in defeat, his purple hair blocking his face. "Tch. I hope you rot in the deepest parts of hell, fucker..." Y/n mutters as he lets out his final breath.

"...Heh..." Y/n's father closes his palm. When he did, a bright light flashes and consumes everything.

...

Y/n slowly opens his eyes, groaning in the process. He felt his head throbbing, so he places a hand on his face. It feels like someone just went through his head and began to rip his brain apart. His vision was blurry, but he could still barley make out his surroundings. From what he could tell, he was in a small narrow vehicle.

"What the...-?"

Y/n's POV

The pain in my head was unbearable. I could barley even think. However, by some miracle, the pain went away in a matter of seconds. My vision started to clear up as I find myself inside of a moving bus.

"..." I slowly lower my hand, feeling the pain gone. I was about to panic as I didn't know why I'm here, but almost right after the pain went away, my memories flooded back in.

'That's right...today's Saturday. I'm going to the woman's shop...'

I let out a frustrated sigh as I focus on the dream. What the hell was that? Why did I see my cousin, and them together? I love my cousin, but despise the other two. Sure, Luna can be a handful, especially when she goes insane for some boy, but I still treat her like family... So why-?

No one's POV

The bus starts to slow down, breaking y/n's concentration. He looks up and walks out, pushing the theory to the meaning of the dream out of his mind for now. He just needs to help that woman out today then he can go home. However, as he was behind the driver's seat, he felt a pair of eyes glaring at his back. He stops walking as he looks over his shoulder, wondering who could be looking at him. However, he saw no one staring at him as he and two others were trying to get off the bus.

"..." Y/n lets out another sigh. He exits the bus before the others could yell at him for holding up the line. As he steps out, he saw a crowd of people walking by and a few waiting to get on the bus as well.

After y/n steps out of the bus, he looks around to figure out where to go. Seeing as he could either go left or right, he scratches the back of his neck. When he was done, a cold breath blew gently on the hairs of his neck.

"You've angered the Wolves." A male's voice coos into his ear.

"?!" Y/n's eyes widen. He turns around to see who said that, but all he found was air. The bus was long gone and anyone who got off were well on their way to their destinations. Everyone else was acting normal, not even darting an eye at him. "..." Y/n cautiously studies the area around him, a nervous drop of sweat travels down his face. "Inferno." He whispers.

Inferno was summoned to his side. It's four eyes open, revealing its yellow eyes, as it scans the area around the two. It tried to find anyone who could posses a power, but it doesn't pick up anything suspicious.

"..." Y/n doesn't say anything. Eventually he had Inferno leave as he was left alone.

'"The Wolves"...' He thought, puzzled by the person's words as they echo in his head. Who the hell said that? And what did I do to anger them? Were some of the questions that ran through his mind.

"..."

After a moment, y/n decided it was probably for the best to keep going. He turns around to walk away, but not without clenching his fists as his guard was up. 

Meanwhile...

As he was leaving, a man watches him go from afar. He was leaning against a wall as his arms were folded.

The man looks to be in his very early twenties. His skin was a bit pale. He had long, messy black hair and crimson red eyes. He had black earring and wore sunglasses over his eyes. He wore a white shirt underneath a black jacket. He also had a black leather belt, black pants, and black leather boots.

A sinister grin grows on the man's lips. His crimson red eyes studies y/n's movements as the latter was cautiously walking. The man couldn't help but chuckle a little seeing y/n so nervous.

"You're an interesting fellow..." He mutters. "I can sense a lot of anger in you..."

As a civilian walks by the man, they could barley hear him mutter the second sentence. They stare at him with a confused look, but eventually shrug it off. The man however, didn't even notice them. He just kept watching y/n from under his glasses before cackling quietly.

"I wonder what's your breaking point is..." The man's eyes shimmer a little as he licks his lips creepily.

===To be continued==>

Hey, everyone. Sorry for the long wait. I've been busy and just now have gotten to this story. I don't know when the next chapter will come out, so please be patient with me. I'll try my best to update as soon as I can. But for now I hope you've enjoyed this rewrite. I know I haven't changed too much, but that's because I'm pretty okay with this chapter, just had issues with dialogue choices I made.

But enough about that. I hope you have a wonderful day/night. Peace out.
