UNFORGIVABLE GIRL.
haru daguchi.
“It's not like my origin story is anything worthwhile or interesting. Didn't you know that this kind of thing happens to people all the time?I was a normal girl. Totally normal. I had all the right sensibilities. Everything was in tact. I think I may have even had a lot of friends. The only problem was I got in trouble a lot. I couldn't quite agree with my surroundings, and I got in trouble for acting out. It's not like I could control it, I was just disturbed. Mhm. The normal world disturbed me.Anyways, my parents were really worried about me. But they also thought my issues were out of their hands. They didn't want to deal with it themselves, so they sold me off.
I'm serious! They sold me off!I was sent to a boarding school against my will. Even though I didn't want to go... I was sent there against my will. The people there were totally crazy. All the other kids had this dead look in their eyes— and none of the adults even let me speak. The windows in the dorm rooms were sealed shut— I couldn't even get a breath of fresh air! It was insane! I had to follow all their ridiculous rules— stand in line like this, wear this, do these chores, don't look at each other, don't talk to each other, don't make friends with each other— I seriously thought I was going crazy!I was completely rational, so my first thought was that I had to get into contact with my parents somehow. There was a phone room in the building, and I snuck out at night to call them.
Another girl saw me sneaking out, and told on me. I don't even think she hesitated, even though she knew what would happen as a result.I was grabbed and thrown onto the ground. I think that was the first time an adult ever hit me, so I started crying right away. I cried and cried and cried. More than anything, I was begging for my parents. But they didnt listen. Those people were so far gone that the cries of a child didn't matter to them.I was thrown into an empty room. A completely empty room with only white walls and a drain in the middle of the floor. The door didn't have any cracks in it or a window, so there wasn't any light once they locked me in.I stayed there, shrouded in darkness in a totally empty room. I was locked in there for six months. I kept screaming for a while, but nobody came. It was like being dead. Anyone would lose it if they had to go through something like that.Yep. Somewhere around the six month period, I snapped. I knew nobody was coming for me, and I was angry. I thought— if those adults knew what it was like to be locked up like this, they'd be groveling at my feet for forgiveness. I wanted that really bad. For the first time in my life, I seriously wanted to make someone suffer. I wanted someone to lose it like I did.That's why I killed them.I didn't kill them directly, though.While I was in solitary confinement, something in me changed. I don't think it made me stronger. Rather... I fell to the same level as the people holding me. And because we were at the same level, I was able to kill them.I killed the guy who brought me food every day first. I locked him in that room and escaped. But just locking him in my prison cell wasn't enough.My Containment is a really terrible ability. Just by sealing those front doors, nobody else was able to escape. Not staff, not students, nobody... And because Containment seals away everything in a certain area, the phone lines wouldn't work either. Electricity and plumbing probably stopped working after a certain point too.I had everyone totally locked up. The staff, and even the students like me. They couldn't escape. I let all of them slowly die. I mean— they should be dead by now, right? That building is probably a mountain of corpses by now!I really wanted to kill the staff, but I didn't really feel like killing the other kids in the same situation as me. But I didn't have a choice, either! Telling them to run would only make it easier for me to be captured again! It's unfortunate collateral damage, but I would do it all over again! I don't regret a thing!Anyways, I finally got home. But my parents didn't recognize me. I had just spent six months in solitary confinement! I probably looked totally sick and crazy— nothing like the daughter they left. But I was really pissed they didn't recognize me, so I killed them too. I didn't use any ability for that. I just killed them with my hands. Maybe that's extreme, but they're the ones who sold off their daughter to a prison school without checking in once! I don't care what happens to people like that! I don't regret it at all!I'm all alone now. I don't have anything except for these fresh wounds from my containment. I've got my sights on one thing, though— the Minus Class 13 of Hakoniwa academy. I heard that once a group of really amazing people tried to spread their suffering across the student body. I hate school more than anything, but if I can go there and make all the students and teachers feel completely trapped— that'd really be something!I don't know if that Minus Class still has that goal in mind, but I don't care! I don't need any allies in this goal. I'll do everything myself if I have to. That's totally fine! After all, I'm alive!”
“Hmmm...? My Containment? It's not so complicated. With these hands of mine, I can seal away anything. I can seal doors, I can seal away people, I can seal away hearts, I can seal away feelings... I can totally trap anything I want. That's all there is to it.”
