Fate.
I believe, everything that has been happening to me is fate.
Yeah.. that is right, fate. I should not be angry with my fate.
Even though fate is the one who made me this way despite everything I had done for those people, after all the help I give, all the blood and tears I pour to protect... Fate trapped me in here.
In the dark and empty space with no sound. This place is so quiet. There is no sound, not even my voice. I screamed yet no sound is produced. I can't even move my body. I don't know how to feel but I do know one thing.
"I'm not dead yet ".
Isn't that unfair...? I fought for others, to protects others yet in the end, this is what I got.
Trapped alone in this dark place I called prison. I want to die yet what trapped inside this place is not my body, but my soul. My body has long perished but, why am I not dead yet?
"Easy"
The body and soul are two different things. A body is nothing but a vessel for a soul to reside in. A soul is what keeps a person alive. Losing one soul is the true death while losing a body is like a hermit crab losing its shell. The time it takes is to die is longer. Just like a soul will disappear after some time before death comes in.
"Imagine, trapped in a dark space. You can see nothing, hear nothing, voice nothing, and can't move any part of your body."
"you can only wait and pray... for a miracle or mercy from the unknown..." with this thought in mind, I wait and wait and wait... losing all sense of time while being alone in the dark.
Until one day,
[HIGH-GRADE SOUL ACQUIRED]
For the first time in a very long time...
[SOUL CONDITION... FIRST CLASS]
I heard a robot sounding sound. I feel excited. It's been so long and finally... finally! something is happening!!
[REGISTERING SOUL AS THE NEW HOST]
I----------------------- I
I [DO YOU ACCEPT?] I
I [YES] [NO] I
I----------------------- I
A blue screen suddenly pops up in front of me. At first, I feel confused because, for the first time, I can see something else from the endless darkness. I realized that I can finally move my soul form. I move closer toward the screen as I stare at what's written on it.
"If I accept this offer? will this endless torture stop?" I asked in a worried tone.
I wait for a few moments but no answer came up. I start to look around me to search for anything like clues or any changes but only darkness can be seen as far as my eyes can see. Well... except for the screen in front of me.
I put a hand under my chin and start thinking of a decision. "....what should I choose?" I asked myself that question repeatedly.
I focus my attention on the blue screen again.
It's not like I will lose anything if I choose to accept this offer. If by accepting can stop my suffering, I can finally leave this dark and lonely place.
" I accept " without hesitation, I agree with the offer.
After that, the [YES] bracket blinked twice and the screen disappeared and darkness returned.
I wait for any change to happen. I look around the dark space again. Searching for anything different but, after what felt like a long time, nothing happened.
"What...what's happening?" I glance left and right. " Nothing happened !!?? " I can feel my soul is trembling as I glance everywhere around me.
" How long do I have to wait again and suffer this endless torture? " I feel cold just thinking about it. Just when I finally see some changes...
" W..what would happen if I choose no... will I die!!? " I scream loudly as I could.
"Well If by picking no will make me stop suffering than I'd rather choose no!!" I shout in desperation as panic overtook my mind.
Just as I was about to give up, the same voice from before returns.
[SOUL HAS FINISHED REGISTERING]...
"What now??" I was shocked by the sudden notification.
[WELCOME NEW HOST !!!]
As the robotic voice said that, my soul is being sucked into a vortex of Black Holes.
"Wha-" I tried to reach out for anything to hold on despite knowing it was impossible. The black hole violently sucking my soul from behind not giving me any chance to escape.
"-at is going OOOooonnn!!!??? " I close my eyes tightly as my soul is engulfed in darkness.
