Killing spree

What was that all of a sudden yesterday? I haven't heard the voice again since that little conversation in front of the mirror.

“Eeeeyyy!! Are you awake?? Eeeyyy!!”

“Look at Butagami. He finally lost his mind!!”

“Tssss!! Quiet, or he will listen to us. We better not get along with a lonely, friendless loser like him!!”

Ah crap… I need to act calm or else everyone will notice I did something. I’d better keep my distance from people just in case. I may have been hallucinating because I saw the body of Sasaki like that. Anyway, let’s start another day being bullied.

“Do you hear it? They found Sasaki dead this morning in an abandoned place.”

“Sasaki? Wasn’t he with Butagami and his friends?”

“Do you think Butagami has kil…”

I started running when I heard that. If I kept listening to those gossip girls, they could be a target like Sasaki was. I definitely killed him, but If what I saw yesterday in the mirror was real, then that so-called Kira is going to start killing anyone who bullies me. This is not good at all!!

“Hey!! Butagami!!”

Oh no… Sasaki’s friends got me.

“Oh my god, Butagami!! Did you lose some weight?? Your clothes don't seem like they were about to explode!!”

Now that he mentions it… I really feel lighter than yesterday. It may have been for that jog I made when I kill… Oh no!! Don’t think about it or I’ll lose consciousness.

“Come to the bathroom right now. We need to talk.”

After making sure I didn't have any weapons on me, I followed them into the bathroom. They will probably hit me and make me tell them where Sasaki was. I needed to hide the truth or they would tell the police.

“Okay fatty! Start speaking! I’m recording this for the police. You killed Sasaki, right?”

“Of course not. You know, I never fought you back, guys. You’ve been hitting me the whole year and I’ve never complained about it, right?”

“You dumb fuck!! You can’t tell we hit you!! You just need to say you killed him!! They found the body on the spot we wandered you yesterday!!”

*SMACK*

Ah… there they go hitting me again… I have to control myself just in case the guy from the mirror was real.

“You dumb pig!! We will meet you behind the school after classes. Come alone to confess your crime.”

*SPIT, SPIT*

“Of course, guys. I’ll be there, don't worry.”

“Damn. This guy is such a coward… I’m starting to lose interest in bullying him. What if, after he confesses, we deliver some justice against him?”

“YES!! I have been wishing to do that for a long time now!!”

“Hahahaha! Butagami is done for…”

Now I can’t run away with it… I need to survive another day. As long as they need me to confess, I’ll be safe. If they aren’t gonna kill me, then it will all be okay, right? As long as I don’t confess, they won’t kill me. Oh no… I need to calm down.

****

*DONG, DONG*

The classes are over. I need to go behind school before they get more angry at me. Also, everyone in my classroom has been looking strangely at me all day. They usually did, but now more than ever. Is it because I lost weight or is it because of the rumor about me killing Sasaki?

“He killed him for sure.”

“Look at him! He’s obviously an assassin.”

“He’s so gross and fat. Hahahahaha. I’m sure their parents abandoned him in an orphanage or something.”

I can hear you all… Damn!! I think I’m gonna pass out again!! I… I need to…

…

…

…resist!!! Haa… haa… haaaaaaaa. I did it!! I’m out of breath, but I resisted it!! I’m still in class and… no one is here…

*WHOOSSSHHHH*

How strange, they were all speaking about me and then they disappeared suddenly. Ah shit!! It is getting late! I have to hurry up and head to the meeting point.

****

“You are late, Butagami!!”

“I’m sorry!! I had to do the cleaning for the class today!”

“I don’t care. Now bend on your knees and confess your crimes.”

I’ll bend on my knees for the moment. But I can’t confess or they will kill me… ah… not again…

…

“Mmmh? You filthy pig!! Why aren’t you talking, ah? The fat on your neck makes your vocal chords numb?

“Hahahaha!! Kitagawa-kun, you are so funny! Let’s give this fat pig a good kicking until he decides to confess that he killed Sasaki!!”

“Yeah, lets… eh?”

*STAB*

“Don’t tell me you… murderer…”

*PLOF*

*One sucker left.*

*LICK*

*Your blood tastes like shit, you scum.*

*SPIT*

“You son of a… Where did you get that knife from?”

*I was storing it in your mom’s womb.*

“Your voice changed!! The hell happened to you? Weirdo!!”

*You talk too much for a guy who’s on the verge of his death.*

“You are dead meat, Butagami!! You sliced Kitagawa’s throat and I have it all recorded!! You are going to jail. Hahahahah!!”

*Then I just have to slice your belly open!!*

*STAB*

*SLASH*

“Uggh… Butagami, you filthy pig… You are a fucking murderer!!”

*SPLAT*

*Don’t overdo it. You are just making your bleeding more intense.*

Now this is also my body!! It feels great. Finally, I got rid of those bullies who were damaging my body. Aaaaaaaah… This color is so beautiful!! Slicing someone's belly is the best!!

*My!! You even shit yourself before dying!! HAHAHAHAHA!! Who’s the pathetic pig now??*

*KICK*

Now then… before returning this body to the passive Butagami. I’ll take the smartphone of this generic bully and destroy it so they have no evidence of what happened here. Shit!! I spat in this sucker's shirt!! I’ll strip him and burn the clothes somewhere!! Also, I should leave this area immediately or my other self will throw up again.

****

…

What the hell happened to me? I was kneeling before these two bullies, and now I’m here at the edge of the river… It happened again for sure. It’s the same thing that happened with Sasaki-san. I may have killed them too!! My hands won’t stop shaking!!

*Shake, shake, shake*

This is bad, this is bad…!!

*OI!! Butagami-kun!! Kira speaking here!!*

“Kira? Where?”

*Down here at the river, you dumbass!!*

“AH!! There you are again. You are always in the weirdest places.”

*I swear you are the most stupid person I have ever met. That’s not much since I just met like 5 people.*

“You did it again, right? You killed them!!”

*Man you… I swear I will kill you if you keep shouting like that in public!! Listen, you moron. You better start behaving like nothing happened and continue with your life. Talking about me is restricted, you hear me?*

“You must stop this! We can’t continue with this. We are gonna get caught!”

*We are not gonna get caught, Butagami.*

“Yes we will. And then I’ll be sent to jail for the rest of my life.”

*You idiot!! All you have to do is lend me your body when the worst is about to happen. We just need to prove that you are mentally ill because of all the bullying you suffered. Then you will be sent to a mental facility and we will be released in a couple of years.*

“Damn… You have it all planned just like that in one day? You are a genius or what?”

*Keep joking and I’ll rip our little sausage and I’ll feed it to a dog or I’ll mix it up in our mother’s dinner. Muahahahahahaha.*

“I’m sorry, Kira-san!!! I just want a happy and typical school life like in the mangas!! Having friends is my only dream!!! Sob... sob... Please, spare my little pig sausage!!”

*Don’t shout you little scary rat!! Listen closely to me.*

I approached the river and watched my reflection, or maybe it was Kira’s reflection? Well, I don’t care, this is too complicated!!

*From now on, we are friends. More precisely, I'm your only friend!! You can’t trust anyone else. I’m the only one who protected you from those bullies while your other classmates watched from a distance and gossiped about it!! From now on, your life, no, our life, will be the best school life on earth!! Our ideal school life!! This is your new beginning in highschool!! We will together make core memories to remember when we get old. Those will be the best years of our lives!!*

“My friend? But you keep telling me you will kill me and a lot of scary stuff.”

*I won’t hurt you as long as you leave me out sometimes to stretch my legs*

“Wait… you can’t come out when you want? So I’m in control?”

*You are right, you are under control, but not for much longer, Butagami.*

“What do you mean with that? Are you planning to rob my body?”

*It’s not your body anymore, it’s our body!! Even though one of our two minds is the dominant owner of the body. But that could change under some circumstances.*

“How do you know that?”

*I don’t know why, but I have a lot of knowledge inside me even though I was just born. Listen carefully. We share the same body and mind. We happen to have knowledge that the other doesn’t. It may have to be something from the subconscious.*

“Explain to me why I’m under control just for the moment.”

*No need to explain. You’ll see it soon. Bye.*

“Wait, stop! I haven't finished talking with you!!”

“Look is Butagami… He’s talking with the river? We better run!!”

I need to stop being weird and fat or Kira is going to kill everyone in my highschool.

Back at the Sakuragami academy, the friends from Sasaki were still unfind. One of them was still somehow alive. Even if he had lost a lot of blood, he was crawling his way to find some help.

“Bu…ta…”

*Cough Cough*

“Ga… ah… ah… ah… I can’t keep moving… I’m fading away. I lost a lot of blood.”

“Oh no! This is terrible! What happened to you??”

A girl…? Ple…”

*Cough Cough*

“PLEASE!! HELP!!”

“Calm down, calm down. You are losing so much blood. Here, put your head in my lap and rest. Now tell me who did this to you?"

"...bu... buta... agh!! Butagami!!"

"Butagami? Oh!! I know him!! Then don't worry; you'll be alright. I'm going to ask for help, okay?"

“Thanks… Ai…”

*CRACK*

“There you are!! Gosh!! A novice started to kill in my territory and he can’t even do the job correctly!! I had to break this guy's neck by myself!! Anyway!! HOOP!! Time to act like I was a victim.”

*EJEM, EJEM*

“KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!! There’s a killer in the school!!!!!!!!!!!!”

*Grin*

****

And so, the mysterious girl alerted the teachers, and they called the police immediately. Since the Sakurashi city is small, they got there in a matter of minutes to investigate.

“Now it’s crystal clear!! The assassinations from two years ago are connected with these. All of them are killings amongst the students from the Sakuragami academy.”

*SLUUUUUUUUURRRRRPPPPPPPP*

This old man always gets on my nerves!! “What do you think, inspector Yamazaki?”

“What do I think you ask? It’s obvious what I think!!”

*STARE*

…

…

“The flavor of this cherry lollipop is incredible!! I thought this flavor got lost years ago when I was a kid!! But this company really did it!! I found my new favorite flavor for sure!!”

I swear to god that one day I’ll shoot you in one of your legs!! “I wasn’t asking about that inspector. I need you to tell me your thoughts about these killings. There have been 3 killings in just 24 hours, all related to this academy. You should take it seriously.”

“Ha!! And who says I'm not taking it seriously? You are clearly still a novice here Matsumoto!!”

“My surname is Kaizaki, sir.” I’m gonna shoot you!!

“Listen Matsuzaki!! You are clearly missing one thing here!!

“What is it, sir!!??” I miss something? What should it be?

*STARE*

…

…

“They are dead.”

I CAN SEE THAT, YOU OLD FUCK!!! “Yeah sir, I can see it clearly. They have been stabbed to death.”

“You are mistaken!! Look closely. This one died from a neck fracture. Why would someone with a knife end the life of his victim by breaking his neck?”

“AH!! It can’t be!! So you are saying that there may be two assas…!!”

*SSSSLLLLUUUUUUUUUUUUUUURRRRRRRRRRPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP*

Please, someone kill this guy before I do it myself!!
