  Your P.O.V.

No-

No-

Please, someone! Anyone-

Wake me up from this nightmare-

This must be nightmare-

He is alive, right?

He is a Johan Liebert...a man that everyone fears.

Surely, he can't be dead.

But a loud thump that Johan's body made as soon as it hit the cold muddy ground proved you wrong. Your lips trembled, your mouth barely opened as your eyes widened in utter horror. Making a few steps closer, you fell on your knees, surpassing a sob as your eyes watered. His body was getting colder each moment, as you placed his head on your knees "Johan...?"

A few tears slid down your cheeks down to his face but there was no response from him. Monster's blood spread over your knees but you couldn't care less.

Your hand slowly made a way to the gun that was still in Johan's cold hand. Examining it, you realized something that made you smile just a tiny bit.

It's not loaded. I knew it. He used it to get Kenzo to kill him.

But now-

An inhuman idea crippled inside your mind, spreading inside, taking a control over. You looked at the side where the shot had come, and indeed, there was a man.

"You..." You barely whispered even though there was on way in Hell that stranger could hear you from that distance. Heck, even Nina was not able to hear you although she was standing the closest to you. You moved Johan's head from your knees to the ground, a saddened smile on your face. You stood up, and turned around, your eyes narrowed and gloomy in anger, in sadness, in grief-

"_______..." you heard Kenzo's voice in a distance but could not look at him in the eyes. Not now.

Not now that you were about to something that was so contradicting everything he believed in.

The man was still just standing in the distance, just looking at you or Johan...or someone else...? Gosh, you didn't know-

No-

More like you didn't care at all.

Making a few steps closer, you were finally able to see the man. And even though he still wasn't near you, you trusted your shooting skills very much.

"You!" You rose a gun at him, looking at him narrowed eyes "You!"

"_______, no!" Nina shouted, and approached your quickly but as soon as she met your eyes, her eyes widened, and she clutched her fists. Perhaps she was surprised Dr Tenma's sister was ready for an act of a monster. Or maybe it was the expression that seemed so broken, and so shattered just like her twin had had while he was alive?

"Nina, do please move. I would never be able to forgive myself if I killed you by an accident." You said, and once again looked at her, and spoke louder, emphasising the last word "I said, move!"

"Imuoto, don't!" the good doctor suddenly appeared in front of you "I understand your feelings. I understand your pain but you must not seek revenge. Revenge just breeds more revenge. It's a vicious cycle that needs to stop. Don't give in to hate, _______. I know you are better than that."

Your eyes widened, pain and happiness wriggling inside you, squeezing your very soul as the gun slid to the ground, and you hugged him tightly, crying into his shoulder "Onii-chan!! Onii-chan!! It's you!" you let out another sob "It's really you! I am so sorry! I am just so sorry!"
