13-year-old Eden Satire stared down at his hands. He blinked. 'Why is my hand covered in blood?' He asked himself. He turn to his left and saw his mother's dismembered head. 'Messy job.' He thought while looking at her corpse. He turned to his right and sees his father's arm that was still bleeding.
He realized something as he glanced at his feet. There was a knife. He began panicking. 'Did I kill my parents?' He asked himself. He decided to take a towel that was filled with either his mother or father's blood and wiped the handle of the knife clean.
He was about to take another towel when he heard the police siren. He kept a straight face at first but thought of something to fool the police. He put one of his finger into both his eyes and he began crying.
'They have no choice but to believe us...' an unknown voice whispered to him. He turned around while crying. He saw no one. He concluded that it must be in his head. 'You're correct, Eden...' the voice congratulated him. 'Who are you?!' He yells mentally.
'We're born in the same body. I'm your twin....Azrail.' Said Azrail as Eden feels someone hugging him. For a second he swore that he can see Azrail. His eyes are fully black...hollow-like. His hair is the same as Eden's. There was something that was dripping from his eyes and mouth.
"You saw me!" He heard Azrail cheered happily. Eden is pulled back to the real world when he heard the police kick down the door. Thank goodness, he was still crying because the police look straight at him.
"T-The murderer....h-he...he f-forced me to-o watch m...my...parents slowly die.....they were screaming....their b-blood spilled...o..on me..." he murmured and clutch his head like he was in pain.
The policewoman walked towards him. Eden flinches. The policewoman drops her gun and hugs the bloody weeping boy. "It's okay...you're going to be okay....we're going to take care of you and protect you from that murderer...." she whispered into his ear. For a moment, Eden wanted to believe her.
Azrail hissed at the woman. 'She's tricking you!' Said Azrail as he growls like an animal. Eden didn't listen and hugged her back signifying that he trusts her. The woman smiled and picked him up.
"Come on, Rosemary. We need to get the kid to the hospital. Reinforcements will come to check the scene out." Said the policeman. "Fine, Jacob." Said Rosemary as she hurried to the car. Jacob entered the driver's side and drove them to a nearby hospital.
Eden was hugging Rosemary and didn't bother to listen to their conversation. Little did he know, that was the wrong decision to make. "We're going to question him, right?" Asked Jacob.
"Yes...since child murderers' rating in this time is high....he might kill his parents...I feel sorry for the little boy." Said Rosemary as she pats Eden's head. Azrail is trying to grab a hold of Eden's body in order to bite her but Eden didn't allow him to. 253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLUcXIEEOrq
'I know she's lying to you! Child murderers' popularity is getting higher and higher so she suspects you.' Said Azrail as he crosses his arms. 'How would you know?' Eden scoffed. This time, Azrail stayed silent.
'You'll see.' Eden could feel the smirk climbing up Azrail's hollow mouth. Eden was about to reply to Azrail when the car came into a halt. "We're here..." Rosemary told Eden who wiped his eyes.
He was sent to room 3 on the first floor. He got new clothes—hospital clothes—and an old bunny plushie. He sat on the hospital bed as Jacob asked him questions regarding the murder of his parents.
He let Azrail take over to answer the questions for him. Azrail is—surprisingly—an excellent actor. He's glad he let Azrail act instead of himself.
"T....There was b-blood everywhere! It...s-soaked my clothes....I-I...I was scared...he might kill me b-but...h..he told me that I...I wasn't worthy of being k-killed..." Said Azrail as fake tears poured out of his eyes.
Jacob looks away sadly when both Eden and Azrail felt a change in the air. A man with blood red hair, emerald eyes and an eye patch above his right eye walked in the room. He looks like he's in his early 20s. He smiled at Eden.
"Yo! How's the kid?" He greeted and asked Jacob who sighs at his behavior. "Eden is fine." Said Jacob as he drank some water. "Can I question him now?" The man asked eagerly.
"Do whatever you want. Just don't leave a scar or trauma on the kid." Said Jacob as he left the room leaving Eden alone with this man.
'Something isn't right....' thought Eden. For the first time ever since Azrail appeared in his head, he was silent. "Hey, kid! My name is Adrian. Now let's get some questioning done." Said Adrain as he grins.
Eden's instinct was right after all. This man—no, Adrain—is dangerous. "Don't lie, alright?" Adrain grin widened as his aura shifted from being friendly to emitting his blood lust.
Eden gulped. There's no guarantee whether Adrain kills him or not. 'Be careful.' Was what Azrail told Eden as his tone shifted.
After a couple minutes, Adrain got up and left the room. Jacob was waiting outside. "How is it?" He asked. Adrain just shrugs and left.
'Eden....Adrain's not normal...his behavior...' Said Azrail as he appears beside Eden. He freaked out and fell off the hospital bed.
"Ow!" Said Eden as he rubbed his poor—injured—butt. 'Sorry...I recently got the hang of my powers and wanted to show you!' Azrail apologized.
'It's fine...just don't do that again.' Said Eden as he got on the bed once again. There was a knock on the door. "C-Come in!" Said Eden feeling a little startled.
The door opened to reveal Rosemary. She walked in and gave in a hug. "I'm sorry..." She was crying. Eden's mind stopped working for a moment.
'What am I supposed to do?' He asked Azrail but he didn't reply. Eden turned to look to the right where Azrail was. His eyes widened as Azrail seemed to be crying.
'I'm sorry, mom...dad...' he apologized in his monotone voice. He doesn't know what to feel. Azrail smiles sadly.
'You can barely express your emotions...I'm the opposite...follow Rosemary's actions and you'll seem normal.' Said Azrail as he points to Rosemary.
Eden mentally nods and tears started to fill his vision. He cried silently with Rosemary. "I miss them." He told Rosemary who sobbed.
"You shouldn't cry over a stranger." Said Eden as he stopped crying. He wipes his eyes with both his hands. "Stop wasting your tears on me." He said sternly. Rosemary cried even more. She kept on repeating the words "I'm sorry" over and over.
Eden has no choice but to cry with her and so he did. He let his emotions take over just this one moment. Jacob walked in and comforted both of them.
Little did they know, a boy with a scarf watched through the cracks of the door. He smiles. Adrain is behind that boy. He pats his head and walked away.

(A/N: This is actually the first time I tried making a banner so it's kind of awful. It took me a long time to find the perfect picture for Eden and Azrail but I did it either way. Thank you for reading the first chapter of INSANITY! Stay tuned for future chapters!)
