Spiky hair, butler outfit, his way of speech and his weapon.

It's all too familiar… It's all very familiar to Rem.

She can't believe it, she doesn't want to believe it.

[Subaru: Remember those things I've said to you? Here's one you should remember while we're here. If you don't resist, it will hurt less, and I'll let you die quickly.]

Filled with fear, Rem feels betrayed, sad, and angered.

Why is Subaru doing this? What did she do exactly? She did nothing wrong.

What is his point for doing this?

[Rem: S-subaru… W-why? I-I haven't done anything to you…]

[Subaru: You may think that, but you certainly are guilty until proven innocent. But from what I've seen, I think I already made a conviction.]

…

[Rem: I-Is Ram in this…?]

…

Subaru holds his swords as he approaches Rem.

[Subaru: No. I'm alone. Though I'll finish this before Ram can figure it out.]

…

Shaken, she holds her head as she looks to Subaru, whose face doesn't seek mercy nor give any mercy.

[Rem: W-wh-why…? A-am I really that untrustworthy?]

Subaru stops for a second before continuing his walk to her.

[Yes, you are.]

*Ngh!

…

Rem can already feel her tears roll down on her cheek as she gives off one laugh as she sighs.

[Rem: You're stupid, Rem… You thought too highly of yourself, and now look what it has brought to you…]

Subaru stops again.

…

[Subaru: About Ram-]

[Rem: I don't care!]

Rem wipes her tears off as she pulls out her phone and opens her blinding flashlight to him.

[Shut up!!]

Subaru covers his eyes, but keeps his guard on, but before anything else, she is shoved off by Rem as she quickly runs away.

Subaru looks at his body, but Rem didn't give him a wound.

…

Shaking his head, he quickly gets up and holds his sword as he chases after Rem.

[Rem: Zero]

…

..

.

Rem is still running, all of this is hard to take in all at once.

She can't believe her eyes, she can't believe Subaru.

Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why?

Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why?

Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why?!!

A sound was heard as Rem suddenly trips and falls down the hill, she lands on a rough surface of grass.

[Rem: N-ngh… S-something hurts… S-someth-

*!

I-Is that her-

*!!!

She bites her lips as she looks at her legs and one is missing, and that's when her mind changed to fear as she screamed out in pain.

She rolled around, trying to make the pain go away, but it doesn't.

Rem's light wings are still out.

She's not dying, but she feels the pain, and her brain is filled with questions and fear.

She tries to bare the pain, as she makes an attempt to crawl away, but she is grabbed and suddenly she feels the cloth being wrapped in her wound.

I-It's Subaru, and he's tying her leg. ...To at least stop some of the bleeding…?

[Subaru: I can't heal you, but this is the least I can do to get information out of you.]

After her wound has been covered tight, Subaru stands up and walks to the knife she was holding.

[Subaru: I don't understand something. Why didn't you stab me? You have many opportunities to do it. You even overpower me. So why?]

He picks it up and walks to Rem.

[Subaru: Is it fear? Is it cowardness? Either way, you failed to stop me. You could've lived if you stabbed me at least once. But]

Subaru throws the knife far away behind him as he holds both of his swords.

[Subaru: Now, Tell me. Were you sent by a faction that is the rival of Emilia?]

[Rem: N-ngh… Y-you know both of you are really m-meant for each othERAAA!

Rem was kicked, as Subaru walked to her.

[Subaru: Who hired you? What could've been the rewards if you kill Emilia?]

[Rem: K-kghk… I really adore b-both of you. Y-you two are really- AGHN!]

Something just stabbed Rem, and she sees a Kunai stabbed into her stomach as Subaru holds his swords again.

[Subaru: Also, one last thing…] He holds his sword as he pointed it to Rem's head.

[You're from the Oni-Village, right? You're pretty terrible for betraying your own kin. I can't believe an oni belongs to that stupid witch cult.]

Rem was breathing heavily, she can feel her life fading, but one thing is odd for Rem.

Oni-Village? Witch Cult?

[Rem: W...what do you mean… W-witch cult? N-ngh… O-only h-hell knows! R-Rem has been secular f-for generations-

[Subaru: Don't lie to me!!]

*!

[Subaru: I can smell it… You reek of the witch's miasma! Do you think I'm stupid to believe that you don't belong to that cult?!]

Rem's expression is blank, but it shows fear on the outside.

What is he saying?

[Subaru: When I saw you talking to Ram, I almost went mad, uneasiness and I was filled with anger! Khk… The one I've been close with, the one that lost all things at that one night…

She went face to face with a very contributor of the reason why she lost everything!

The one who was responsible, was her very own kind… That kind, she managed to stroll in the place that we're in!]

[Rem: w...wh…]

[Subaru: Guhng! I can't bear it any longer! If you think Ram will get upset at me for this, She won't! You think she cares about you in any way? No! She doesn't! Even if she has shown a slight bit of kindness, It was nothing! She was only pretending to care!!]

Hearing that, Rem's heart is already shattered.

Tears rolled down on her cheeks. Her light wings faded as she lay down on the ground in disbelief.

[Rem: Y-you know… When Rem peeled vegetables, Sh-she didn't cut her hands anymore…

*..?

[Rem: S-she learned lots of t-things… She's learned how to read and write… even if it's just the basics… She really studied hard… S-she really did… She can read a simple fairy tale… T-that's because both of you helped her… B-both of you… h-helped me...]

[Subaru: what..? What are you saying?...]

[Rem: I'm saying that both of you gave me those things… Those very small things, I cherished them… I remembered them…]

…

…

Subaru looks to Rem, pulling his sword away from her head.

[Subaru: I… I don't remember anything like that happening.]

K-khk…

[Rem: Why…? Why can't you remember??!!]

She tries to sit up, but without her wings or horn she struggles to even get up.

[Rem: Why does everyone hate me so much?!! Why does my bad luck have to go this far?!!]

Rem's horn appears as she looks to Subaru.

Rem's expression changed from shock and sadness to anger.

[Rem: What the hell did I do?! What was that one thing that made you all hate me so much!!? What did I do wrong??!!!]

[Why do all of you hate Rem so much?!!]

Rem shakes her head as she covers her eyes, she can't take it. Her feelings are more hurt than the wounds Subaru did.

[Rem: You even agreed to cut my hair like Ram's…]

She wipes her tears away as she clenches her heart.

[Y-you know… Even after all that… I've always… K-ngh…]

…

[Subaru: I…]

[Rem: You know, e-even after all that! I've always liked both of you! I LIKE BOTH YOU VERY MU-!!]

Before she can finish. Rem's neck was cut open as blood splatters and Rem falls flat on her face. Her horn also disappeared from sight.

Subaru who hasn't moved at all since she started shouting, puts his swords on it's sheaths as he looks to Rem.

[Subaru: Ram is too kind… ...You can rest now.]

…

…

…

*K-...khguhk!

Rem opens her eyes, her pupils have gone small, and she's sweating.

She looks around, and… She's in this bed again. She looks to the window and sees the sun's bright light as she can hear the birds singing.

[Miss, are you awake?]

*!!

Rem slowly turned to the voice as she could feel her shoulders going cold.

[Miss, you're awake?]

Rem is panting heavily, and her voice trembles in fear, once she sees Subaru and Ram, her eyes filled with tears as her voice goes-

[Rem: a...Ah…! AHHH!!!!!!]
