Mizayaki started heading toward his master's place

 Mizayaki found his master sitting outside under a tree in a chair, with a wide-brimmed hat covering his face

Then mizayaki said 

Hello master

Thank you for everything you have taught me

Im leaving

 im here to say goodbye 

His master didn’t say anything 

Mizayaki started moving backward slowly 

Then mizayaki’s master said 

Mizayaki

Anger is like a fire 

The more you feed it the stronger it gets 

Be careful not to feed it too much 

it might burn everything you have 

Mizayaki didn’t say anything He turned around and started leaving his master’s place and as he was leaving he said to himself 

What do i even have left 

Then mizayaki got on the train his seat was near the window 

the train was empty only had 4 or 5 peoples on 

As mizayaki was looking outside the window he fell asleep and started having a dream where mizayaki was 6 

He woke up and saw his parents weren’t there he tried to look for them but couldn’t find them it was raining hard outside sounds of lightning 

Then mizayaki went outside where he saw his father sitting in the rain near a grave 

Then mizayaki went to his father and said 

father what are you doing in the rain?

The father didn’t say anything 

So mizayaki tried to shake his father and as he just touched his father’s shoulder 

His father fell on the ground 

Mizayaki was shocked he tried to pick his father up but he couldn’t then mizayaki said

What happened dad you ok ?

Dad? 

Dad?

Then mizayaki stopped and looked at his own hands and he saw blood mizayaki started screaming crying 

And as he was crying he heard voices saying 

Its all your fault 

You couldn’t protect them you just ran like a coward 

You should be dead 

Mizayaki covered his ears and said 

Stop it

 please 

stop it 

Please 

Then something fell behind mizayaki he looked back and saw a big sword covered in blood the sword looked the same as that knight held 

Then mizayaki screamed and he woke up

Mizayaki was sweating his heart was beating so fast 

He looked around and said 

Oh it was a dream 

A dream

 Then mizayaki reached his destination 

Mizayaki got off the train and he looked around and saw big buildings so many peoples 

He barely made it out from the crowd and then he was walking on the footpath near a road where people used carriages to reach their destinations 

And as mizayaki was walking a boy came to mizayaki and said

Then mizayaki said

Then the carriage boy said

Then mizayaki got off the carriage and gave kira his money and said
