Chapter 38 - Your Smile
Feliciana's (Tasumi) eyes widened as Kaneki charged at Florencio from behind.
"Big brother!"
Grunting, Kaneki leaped away just in time when the kakuja swung its kagune at him.
'I'll be....with big brother again.'
She ran.
'I want to....be with big brother again!'
Blood poured out of her chest as Miyo landed an attack on her, eyes narrowed.
"M-Miyo...." Kiori stammered.
Blood dripping down her chin, Feliciana continued to run towards Florencio whose kagune crawled back into his body as he ran towards her too.
Taking this as a chance, Kaneki sprinted towards him.
'Is he....ignoring me?' Kaneki thought with wide eyes.
His kagune sliced through Florencio's chest.
The ghoul glared at him before forcefully pulling it out, continuing to run towards Feliciana until he collapsed.
"B-Big brother...." Feliciana stammered, slowly getting on her knees as she lifted her brother up gently.
"Oi....Useless....." Florencio muttered as his wound slowly healed.
Flashback (In Spanish)
"Piece of shit, I'll kill him, shit, piece of SHIT!" Florencio growled as he kicked an oil bucket repeatedly, the oil slowly leaking out.
Brushing his hair, he gazed at the skies before turning back to Feliciana.
"Oi. Clean it up."
"H-Hai!" Feliciana stammered, turning to the spilled oil.
"OI, BRAT! WHAT DID YOU DO!?"
A man came storming over to the two.
"Do you know how much that is? You don't just go kicking open oil buckets like that!" The man yelled, voice full of rage. "You know? I can just kill you right here and right now!"
"Worthless shit?" Florencio glanced at the man with his cold blue eyes. "Say that to my face after I beat you to a bloody pulp."
"B-Big brother, I don't think we should-"
"Who gave you the permission to talk?" Florencio's head spun towards Feliciana who flinched.
"I-I'm sorry....."
"What are you doing here, anyways? Get the fuck out of here, you filth!" The man sneered. "Tis place isn't for a worthless brat like you!"
"You're....." Florencio muttered as his eyes shifted red, his kagune crawling out of his back. "....so annoying."
Before the man could say anything else, Florencio's kagune pierced through his head, slicing it into half.
"Oh dear, would you look at this."
Florencio glanced up to see a woman in a dress staring at the body. "You killed one of our workers....that's not very nice."
"He should know his place," Florencio scoffed.
"But he still has a life," The woman stated, eyes cold as ice. "Then would you mind if I killed that little girl next to you?"
Feliciana flinched, her eyes widening in fear.
"Take her. I could care less," Florencio growled.
Feliciana's shocked gaze landed on Florencio as her lips quivered.
The woman stared at him before sighing. "Fine. Anyways, where are the humans?"
"In the green container there," Florencio answered. "Go check it for yourself, I'm leaving."
Walking away, he paused and turned around to see Feliciana standing still.
"Oi. Are you coming or not?"
"B-Big-"
Almost in a blur, he grabbed a fistful of her hair and pulled her away as she screamed, tears rolling down her cheeks. "Who gave you the permission to talk? All you need to do is stay quiet and follow me, understood?"
"Y-Yes...." Feliciana whimpered as he let go.
"Now stand up, useless. We're going," Florencio sneered.
"......Oi."
Feliciana looked up, eyes filled with slight fear as the door opened and close, Florencio coming in.
"Take this."
He tossed a knife over to Feliciana who caught it with a jolt.
"You're using that until you can get your kagune out," Florencio stated. "Don't you dare break it."
Feliciana nodded fearfully as Florencio exited the room, slamming the door close.
She gently slid the knife across her pinky, gasping lightly as blood started flowing out of the wound he just made.
"It's.....a kagune knife."
Staring back up at the door, she frowned. 'But...where did big brother get it?'
"Aah.....your human pets are always the best, these will sell at a good price. My master would love them," A man in a suit bowed to Florencio. "I'm honoured to be a ghoul who has set foot on Costa Rica."
"Leave," Florencio commanded before turning around and walking away.
"Oh, by the way, Florencio-san," The man spoke. "Rumours were that one of the madames from Panama are mad at you. Do contact me if you are in big trouble. The Tsukiyama family would be honoured to help. Master Shu is very pleased by the amount of human pets you have sent us."
Florencio nodded slowly.
"I'll now take my leave, I hope you have an amazing day, Florencio-san," The man bowed.
"What was your name again?"
The man looked up.
"Kanae," he answered.
(Yes i know its a he-)
Florencio opened the door to his apartment.
He glanced around.
He still.....wasn't very used to this clean environment.
Shaking his head, he headed to his bedroom and opened the closet, picking out some clothes before heading to the bathroom.
He paused.
Something was off.
Clothes still in hand, he wandered around the house and stopped at the door of the storeroom as he felt a presence.
He slowly pushed the door open with a creak.
Feliciana was squatting behind the door with tear filled eyes.
"...The hell are you-"
His eyes widened as he spotted a man on the other side of the hallway, a gun raised up at him.
"T-They're-"
Before Feliciana could finish her sentence, she was pulled away by the wrist as they ran towards the nearest window.
"W-Wait, big brothe-"
There was a shattering noise as he broke through the window, jumping off.
Feliciana's eyes were wide in fear.
Wrapping his arms around Feliciana in a protective manner, they landed in the alleyways with a huge crash, Florencio's own body shielding Feliciana's fall.
Groaning slightly, he stood up shakily before carrying Feliciana on his back and running through the alleyways, kagune crawling out of his back.
Grunting as he felt a few bullets being shot at his kagune, he wrapped up Feliciana's body with one of his kagune.
'Those......Q bullets?' Florencio's eyes widened in pain as he was shot in the arm. 'They're....'
Using his two of his claws, he pushed himself off the ground using the walls until he reached the roof.
"Oi, what the hell happened?" Florencio growled.
"T-That guy suddenly came and I hid in the s-storeroom," Feliciana stammered, flinching at the bullets shot at the ground.
Florencio continued sprinting forward over the roofs, eyes narrowed in concentration. "Look around and see if there's a place we cna hide i-"
He froze.
A bullet was shot right through his chest.
"B-Big brother!" Feliciana's eyes widened.
Blood trickling down his chin he shakily stood up and started running, only to be shot again.
He stood with a stumble, eyes darting around as he moved with his kagune.
There.
He leaped into the shadows, running through the alleyways with Feliciana behind him until he collpased, blood trickling down his wound.
Eyes widening as he felt a presence behind them, he pushed Feliciana to the side before stumbling away just in time to avoid a bullet.
The man with a gun ran forward, only to get killed by Florencio as his kagune pierced through the man's throat.
"Oi.....U-Useless."
Florencio's eyes widened.
More than ten people were standing on the roofs, guns pointed at the siblings.
A woman slowly walked forward, staring down at them. "Well, well. Out of breath already?"
Feliciana was trembling in fear, tears rolling down her cheeks.
Florencio held Feliciana close to him, eyes narrowed as his vision blurred.
"Run," he whispered. "I'll cover you."
"B-But-"
"Stop...crying," he muttered. "You're...."
Tears were flowing down his face as well as his body trembled. "...so useless...."
Feliciana's lips quivered.
"The bullet pierced through my heart and it will probably heal in weeks.....I can't get out of here," Florencio muttered. "So run."
"No....No," Feliciana cried, clutching her dress tight.
A slap was landed on her face. "Useless....Useless!"
The woman scoffed in amusement.
"You've been nothing but useless since you were born.....at least....." Florencio gripped her hair tight. "....live."
Feliciana trembled.
"Run. In three......two....."
"No," Feliciana whispered, voice cracking.
"....One."
She ran.
Faster and faster, she ran through the alleyways and onto the streets.
Her tears wouldn't stop.
Was this the only thing she could do?
Florencio clutched his shirt tight.
Feliciana......my dearest little sister.
Grunts of pain escaped his lips as his claw slowly tore off his other kagune.
'I've been.....getting stronger.'
He held back his tears as blood dripped on the ground.
'I wanted to get stronger....'
There was a flash.
In his hands was a kagune knife.
Made out of his own kagune.
'So that I can protect you.'
His kagune slowly shifted shapes, covering parts of his body.
"That boy is.....a half kakuja....?" The woman muttered. "This is bad..."
'You're....so useless. Useless. So stay by my side.....please.'
'I don't want to lose you.'
He stared up at the woman, eyes shining red.
You were always crying......and I didn't know what to do.'
The pained cries of the men could be heard as blood splattered everywhere on the roofs.
'So if we somehow meet in the next life again....'
-----present------
Feliciana froze.
Her body dropped onto the ground, a chakra enhanced senbon stuck on the back of her neck.
Florencio's eyes widened, his lips quivering as his hand slowly brushed through her soft blue hair.
'Big brother really....'
Tears flowed down his face as he gripped her hair tight.
'......wants to see you smile.'
Her eyes slowly closed, a small smile on her face with tear stains at the corner of her eyes.
Darkness engulfed his vision.
