I'll introduce myself. I'm hideyoshi izumi (meaning; esteem or excellence). I have a twin brother named kiyoshi izumi (meaning; pure).
Our parents were researchers, who passed away after getting blasted by an unknown circumstances. So we live with our neighbours next door. Not much of an introduction, but it will do for now.
*Step*
*Step*
*Doors creaking*
"I wonder how old is this mansion." Said kiyoshi to himself.
I shrugged at him. We continued to explore the mansion for a while...
"Hide, is this some old artifact or a crystal directly from the mine?"
"Who knows, we are just explorers. We don't have any idea about these stuff unless we examine more."
I picked up the crystall kiyoshi told about. I felt some strange and strong presence.
It felt like... It was trying to take my soul.
"Hide? Did you find any clues in that crystall-like artifact?"
"Can you... Hear... Me? Are... You..."
I was standing motionless for a moment. It felt numb. I couldn't even hear kiyoshi.
Then... What else happened?
I really don't know... I feel like...
*Drop down*
*Plop*
*Distant ringing of falling crystals*
"Hide?... Wake up... Hide!"...
"I have taken a liking in you. I want to use your body as mine now. Let's see what you can do..."
*Whoosh*
*Hide panting*
"What happened?"
"You fell unconscious after holding the crystall. What type of crystall was it?"
"Maybe ask the other people who knew about it?"
"We will do that later. Get some rest."
*A few hours later*
*Yawns*
I must have overslept. My left eye started to hurt a lot. Before calling the doctor I went to check in the bathroom if it was normal.
Then I thought, "i probably should never make that choice".
What I saw horrified me. I was traumatised at this point. My left eye had a unknown dark substance changing shape around the eye. Even my eye colour changed to crimson red.
I was almost about the scream in horror. But this might end up a huge problem. I decided to keep it a secret and move on.
*A week later*
*Kiyoshi yawns*
"Hide... Wake up... it's already late."
"...5 minutes"
*Twitching*
"Sleepy idiot. Wait, what's in his eye?!"
"Hmm?"
"Hide. What's in you left eye?"
"Oh haha, i-it's nothing"
"This doesn't feel normal. I'm gonna call the doctor-"
"NO DON'T! This will create a huge problem and can reel in scientists to run test experiments on me. You know what, fine. I'll explain this mark."
*Sigh*
"Alright."
.....
"THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE. HOW DID ONE OF THE STRONGEST DEMON PRESENCE CHOSE YOU AS A VESSEL?!"
*Hide chuckles*
"I don't have any clue either. Should I try talking to it?"
"I guess so"
"Hey, demon presence. Have a word with me?"
*Nerves burst out in the left eye*
*Twitching*
"What do you want, kid?"
*Gulp*
"W-why did you want to take over, my body?
"Like I said, I've taken a liking to you."
"I need a proper answer"
We both gave death stares to each other from The mirror.
"You're persistent, little brat. Since I'm in a good mood I'll tell you."
"I only wanted to posses a vessel of my own. Those who I don't see hope in, I killed them. The people of this world is entirely useless. They don't show hope and are always into themselves, in other words, selfish. Before I lost hope, I found you to be quite a unique being. I'll be ready to control your body anytime, kid."
I smirked at him, saying,"I'll be waiting for the time to come."
I asked him,"should I keep calling you demon presence or do you actually have your own name?
"Of course I do. The name is kurogane"
"Are you sure about that? You don't seem to be like your name."
*Twitches*
"Shut up before I start rampaging in your body."
"Okay, okay. I won't bother for the sake of my life."
"Good. You were lucky since I was in a good mood. Or I would have killed you with me."
I got jerked out after I heard that. This kurogane or whatever return back into my-
"It's kurogane. Make a joke out of my name and you're done for."
*Gulp*
"What you asked is done. Anything else?"
Kiyoshi shivered and replied, "u-uh nothing else! You can go on."
I realised from now I need to be more careful. No one knows when another person could be a victim to murder, and I'm stuck here with this demon known to be one of the strongest presence of it's kind.
"Alright".
