5 A New Start

The sun shone through the curtains, brightening every corner of the room. In the middle of the room, on a king-size bed, a figure is sleeping peacefully snuggled up in the blanket. The face was hidden, only the top of the head full of golden hair was peeking out.

At this time the figure started to stir restlessly, thrashing her body from one side to another, then woke up with a fright and sat up. The girl's face was exquisite and with some baby fat, her jade-like face was now pale and a thin sheet of sweat has formed on her forehead. Her pink and plump lips have turned white and are now trembling slightly, even her whole body was shaking. Her breathing was coming out in short pants.

The warm rays of sunshine on her face, dazzled her a bit. Her eyes were hazy, gazing at nowhere as if struck on a memory. Then she bought her hands to her face and started to examine it. She rubbed her face, and her hands, after feeling her smooth skin. Tears gathered in her eyes and slid down her cheeks.

She got out of her bed shakily and slowly walked towards the bathroom in front of the mirror, watching herself, her eyes dull and hollow devoid of any light, walking just like a lifeless puppet.

As minutes go by her eyes start to get brighter, and her lips start to lift upwards and form a grin. Then she started laughing like a maniac, " ...back, ...am back, ...I am back hehe...I am back hehe.." murmuring to the mirror.

She was laughing just like, it came back from the gates of hell, like a devil, and will be sending chills to those who heard, and giving them nightmares even without sleeping.

Her laughter started to die down as she slowly wiped the leftover tears from her cheeks and her eyelashes and splashed her face with cold water. Her curly eyelashes fluttered like butterflies as she open her eyes, droplets of water slid down her cheeks, through her neck and her Collarbone, and vanished underneath the collar of her pyjama. Her wet red lips just look like juicy fruit, making someone want to take a bite.

She stared at her reflection, her eyes were bright and calm without any ripples exact opposite of how she has been minutes ago, her fair and long fingers slowly combed through her golden curly hair, "God, did you give me a second chance? Haha...I came back from dead, I came back thirteen years ago when the disaster just started..."

She shivered slightly, her eyes gazing into nothing as if struck by a memory.

"I still remember their eyes as they saw me lying, whimpering from pain as they suck out the blood from my body, hole after hole forming in my whole body, their eyes filled with excitement every time I healed by myself. I still remember, the prickly pain from all the needles, even if I told them to stop, to let her go then also they didn't stop, and as it started to get numb that I don't feel the pain anymore, I still remember the tortures, cutting my flesh from my body one by one, giving me an electric shock again and again till I lost my hearing and I became blind then also they didn't stop, and many more torture.

She took a deep breath and continued again. "As my body slowly turns cold, I take my last breath. I still remember my emotions, hurt, anger, fear, disappointment, betrayal, sadness and whatnot as my heart broke completely as they confess everything they had done. I wanted to tear my heart as it hurt so much. But after learning the truth one after another I slowly started to feel numb, as if my emotions slowly leaving my soul, no hate, no anger, my heart was already broken to the core. My thought was 'Am I Going to die? am I unwanted as they say? Is my blood cursed that's why my biological parents left me. Am I a monster not worthy of having love? ' I had many questions but I didn't have my answers as I could feel my life slowly fading away. At that time I thought, finally I'm free from this hell. And I knew one thing that I can't trust or love anymore as I already lost my heart."

She slowly gathered her hair and started to make a messy bun and bound it by a clip, then stood hand crossed over her chest and played with her loose hair and said,"... But who would have thought that I will get a second chance and will get reborn. now I am not afraid and have nothing to lose, so I can do anything as I don't have any weakness, I can let those who tricked me and played with my heart get tenfold of what I've been through. I will find out why my blood is special, and my biological parents, why left me there to live a hell life, I will not back down before finding everything and doing anything it takes, even if it's killing a person. I have long lost any emotions a person can have, so..."

She placed her both hands beside the sink and leaned towards the mirror, still maintaining eye contact with her reflection and smirked slightly, her eyes narrowing cunningly as she said," Are you sure you did the right thing bringing me back because..." her smile widened,"...you bought a devil back from hell. I will not back down until I get my revenge, and I am not scared of anything even if it's death..hehe."

She chuckled slightly, her smiling eyes beautiful but inside her eyes is indifference as she continued, "... so better pray for my dear family and love and to all those who trampled on me previously to not to get too surprised and pass out because there will be loads and loads of surprises waiting for them...hehe..."

She slipped from her pyjamas while talking,"...after all I hate surprises...So good luck...ne~"

Still chuckling as she walked into the shower. The world drifted in silence. After a few seconds, only the sound of running water can be heard in the whole room.
