Shade: Black and White

"Huh? Where am I?", thought Akashi. 

He just woke up and he was in his bed, he woke and looked around him. And near to his bed Sae was sitting and sleeping. 

Akashi remembered everything that happened, although he couldn't control it, he remembered every frame. He felt sorry for whatever happened. 

She was also injured but she was sitting alongside him. 

Akashi couldn't just understand it. 

"Akashi you are awake?", asked Sae who just woke up. 

"Sae I remember everything that I did to that man, and from that I understood that I am not a human. Can you please tell me what I am?", asked Akashi. 

"Akashi you....you are shade just like us", replied Sae. 

"I remember everything now, Mr. Park also did something similar and that woman was also one of them, and now this man, why are they behind us?", asked Akashi. 

"I....I do... don't know", replied Sae. 

"Mr. Park, Mrs. So Hee, and your parents are also a shade?", asked Akashi. 

"Yes", replied Sae.

"Are...Are you sad?", asked Sae.

"If I tell the truth then I am sad, I don't know whether I was one from the beginning or I became one, I am no one of the man-eating beings?", asked Akashi. 

Sae didn't reply. 

KNOCK! KNOCK!

Sae went and opened the door.

"Grandma?"

So Hee entered the room. "Did you awaken Akashi?", she asked. 

Akashi was so depressed that he couldn't talk. 

"Akashi you are one of us now", said So Hee. 

"Akashi I know you are sad, but I would like you to tell me one more thing. Don't think that happiness would never come to Shades. Live your life with the ones that you love. This isn't my line but what Park said", said So Hee. 

Akashi raised his head and looked at So Hee when she talked about Park. Tears rolled down from his eyes, as he couldn't bear that fact. 

So Hee left the room. 

"Sae thank you for protecting me", said Akashi.

"I should be the one to tell you that Akashi", replied Sae. 

"Are you hurt?", asked Akashi. 

"Somewhat", replied Sae. 

"Sorry", replied Akashi. 

"I will protect you Sae, with this power I don't know if this is a curse or a boon, but I will protect you and the others, this is my family from now", said Akashi. 

Sae came and sat near Akashi, she kept her head on his shoulder. 

"Sae!"

He smiled and also kept his head on top of her. 

"Now I think I should go Akashi", said Sae, she blushed and left. 

Akashi lay on his bed and slept.
