Necro-phi part.2 +Omake

By what can you define the concept of playing with death? Can you spare someone who play with death? Then what about those who play with life? The same as his projection in this world, who play with his own life and act as if death is not a significance matters.

Which one sounds more awful than others, to be a playmate of 'death' or to be together with 'life'. The longer you stay with the dead, the more you'll lose your sense of living. However, you can't forget the dread of death while you're still living.

Necro-phi and Vandango, those are two names and not two different people.

-------------------------

Back to where Necro-phi resided in his room along with his family member in this world.

Inside of a room with five people and one corpse on the bed. The light that shows his corpse shine brightly without any sign that it'll naturally die out. Five people lamented on the death of their kin and also one of their color in this world. Some shows their tears while there're those who held out from showing their weakness.

"Onii...Wake up...Wake up...*Sniff*"

There's one girl within the embrace of her mother who tried to arise him from his death bed, her golden eyes which turns sparkly from salty water in her eyes, it makes her more pitiful for her mother to see it any longer and buried her face into her bosom.

"Calm down baby girl...Calm down...Mama here with you."

She hold her daughter along with her feelings as she saw the expression of the corpse lies on his bed. She shows almost to no tears while consoling Sirin in her embrace, but...those are also one of commonly used act of mother in his vision.

Cecilia and Sirin who are the closes to his body are the one who got the front look of how his body is. Pale face as if it has already freeze in ice, the right arm that has been lost from its position, bandages that hide more wounds on his skin, and...how he locked eyes with her.

"...shhh, i'll surprise them later. could you switch the light off please?"

"..."

"...the light mam."

"Machi?"

Necro-phi whispered to Cecilia who could now see if her son wasn't dead, or at least alive in some case, and told her to turn off the lamp that was hurting his eyes.

Sirin couldn't see it because she was crying loudly and hiding her face so it wouldn't be seen in Cecilia's chest.Although she hear her mother called his name, but it only make her cry worse.

The other three; Siegfried, Kiana, and Bianca are the same as they're not in a quite stable position of their mind. However, there's Bianca who got sobered up faster than the other two and can hear her mother but can't see his face because there's Cecilia and Sirin who blocked her views.

So only Cecilia who can heard his whisper in close range.

"...machi? ah...i guess that's what he called here. could you first switch the light of fi-ghuuh?!"

"You're Machi right?! Tell me if you're!"

"Ma-Mama?"

Cecilia moves fast and grab his collar who also caught her family attention. Sirin who got surprised, weep her tears using her small hands and slowly rubbing her eyes which got hurt from how loud she cried before.

Back to when she met her daughters and Siegfried, Cecilia more or less know about his condition from Siegfried and also when she heard more from Bianca. If her son has suffered from memory loss and also a heavy bleeding trauma furthermore losing his arm and wounds all over his body.

She grabbed his collar and called out his name which was the name used by those in this world. Leaving the others gasped if she turns to believe if he's still alive.

"Don't you remember me? It's me..."

Cecilia sounds desperate to ensure if the outcome is not completely hopeless just like what Kiana expected. Cecilia isn't Kiana, but neither of them wanted her family to get hurt and when they met again, it turned out that he had forgotten about them.

"...mario?"

"It's me! Your Mom! Who's Mario!"

Cecilia tried to bring back his memory with her motherly power and her motherly charm, while holding him close to her face so that he can remember. However, her worries were dismissed by her son who replied jokingly about the character of the game she used to play.

"...i thought if you're going to say that, babushka."

"I-It turned worse!?"

Necro-phi who answers lazily made Cecilia becoming more anxious with how bad the condition of her son is, not only he got back alive again, but he also thought if he's someone from Russia. Cecilia glance to each side to find something to use so that she'll recover her son sanity back right at that moment.

"Onii-chan?! Eh? But...H-How?!"

"Sirin-chan, move."

"M-Mama?! W-What are you doing with that? Isn't that Kiana's?"

It's not long for her to returns and brought a base ball bat which she got to found 'conveniently' in a locker beside the bath room. She brought that base ball bat with the intention to smack- to bring her memory back in motherly way, because she thought if it was with this bat, then it would be the perfect tool for her now. Remembering the many moments he spent with this bat and Kiana.

"W-Wait Cecilia! What are you doing?! Hah!? You're still alive deadbeat?!"

"Aniki is....what? Aniki!"

"...I feel like...Something is missing right now. *Sigh* For now, I need to calm my mind."

The other three which is composed from Siegfried, Kiana and Bianca also noticed Cecilia's abrupt choice with that bat. Siegfried come to stop her and found if his son is looking at them with a weirdly cold gaze like a fish from his eyes.

For Kiana, she lunged onto his body and got caught by him who rub her head like a kitten on his lap. Though Kiana is still crying and latched to him, she feel grateful to receive this income.

And finally Bianca who can't grasp the full meaning of what's going on in this place, closes her eyes to ease her headache from everything around her. Be it Cecilia with a bat, Siegfried who hold her down, Kiana who suddenly act like a kitten with this 'dead' brother, and Sirin who is the same as Kiana who got patted with his arm as she cries to who know why.

"Ziggy let go! We need to bring him back before he thought if Mario is real! Don't you heard it?! He call me a granny?! I'm not that old yet!"

"Calm down first Cecilia! B-Bianca, come and help me over here!"

"...On my way."

For Bianca, this is one of the most strangest thing to ever be understand, but she complied and asked her mother to give that bat to her and bring them together so that they can ask about the condition of her brother.

Strangely, no doctor come into this place with all of these mess they have made. Maybe there's someone pulling the strings from behind.

"Mother, father. Let's calm down for a sec, there's more important matter that need to be settled."

Bianca handled them with care and suggest them instead to gather and ask him a question without any drastic measures. Cecilia finally calmed down and put that bat away into the locker, Siegried sighed and thanked Bianca for her perfect support to stop her mother.

Now, all of them are near his bed. Necro-phi is still patting Kiana under her chin and her hair professionally using an advanced hands technique, but because one hand is missing, this technique has not yet reached the maximum point to make Kiana purr like a real cat. I mean...Hand technique is important yes?

"Kiana, Sirin-chan. Are you alright now?"

"Hmn."

"Yes Mama!"

Cecilia asked her two daughters who got latched to each of his side with a serene voice, her voice caught them back again to reality while they nodded their head along with their answers for her question.

Kiana nodded without any clear responses of her answers beside her hum, from the look of it, there's still a small scar that has been created when she got to saw the corpse of her family. The Kiana who always curse and mock her brother is still there, but she has turned softer so that she doesn't need to see him leaving her again for real.

Sirin is the otherwise, she happily answered her mother with her smile and cheerfully hug his head to show that if she's really fine, even though she's the most who got the impact from losing her brother.

"...i can't breath. its hurting me."

"It's my chest! What did you mean by that?!"

"What did he mean by that? It means you're a kid with no real chest pipsqueak."

"What you say Tuna?!"

"Who did you call Tuna?!"

Meanwhile Necro-phi who got squashed between the war of Tuna and an average human enjoyer, silently prayed to the other three who were watching this scene in amusement. Be it the one beside his bed, and also the one who is watching behind the camera.

'...please, can someone switch this light off?'

Another mess has been created from their encounter and also another result from a change of different world line and different world axis. His power, and what it means to be used. What form does the weapon took and then is there any relation to what Vandango was in the chapter before, will there be any undeniable tragedy which can't be changed, and unchangeable destiny.

Well...those are pretty vague because of what world he's in right now.

"What, human."

"...What are we supposed to do in here?"

"You can't even know about these measly things, what kind of fool has you become."

"...Alright now I get it."

------------------------------

*Omake+*

Inside of a room full with many medical tools and also where Mobius work with her data.

"...*Sigh* There's no clear response from this one either."

She leaned back to her chair while sighing of how the progress of her work didn't came out to her expectations. She glanced at the steamy cup of noodles that was cooked by Vandango, her eyes didn't move from the cup for a minute as she picked up the cup to eat the noodles.

She slurped the noodles delightfully to fill her stomach and also to feel the warmth of this cup. Her hands grew warmer as she held the cup until she could feel if it was enough to support her mood again to work.

"Ufufu~ What should I wear next time~"

Her mood become slightly better after she finished her cup, even though her fingers are moving the data in her research, she became more enthusiastic about what kind of perfume she should use the next time she saw him.
