My wife is inside that house waiting for me to get home.
But then a huge lightning burned our house. So i ran as fast as i can to reach our house and opened the door...
Yuuta: SHINDAA!!!! Where are you? I am home!!!
The house was burning. All the memories we made in this house burned down that moment. But i didn't really care, all i want is to save my wife.
Even if the house burned down, if we're together we can make more memories.
I saw my wife on the ground, trapped by burning woods , unconscious, and she was holding our wedding picture.
I burst in tears while trying to get her our of the house.
But then two scary looking guys appeared. They look unreal. They look like reapers. The one who take the soul of the dead according to story books. The first one has a hood and holds a scythe, the other one has blades in his hands.
"We found her."
"Yeah, at last. The dark lord will be overjoyed if we bring the news."
They were having a conversation. But i didn't really care, i kept on saving my wife. As i reached her.
Yuuta: Shinda, everything is okay. I'll get you out of here.
Shinda: Yuu...ta."
Yuuta: I'll carry you-"
Then suddenly the reapers destroyed all of the obstacles.
"Look who we've got here."
"Never mind that guy, take the woman."
Yuuta: What are you doing?
"Isn't it obvious? We're taking this woman."
Yuuta: Why are you taking my wife?
"She's been chosen. You see the mark in her nape? That's the proof."
So that's what that glowing thing is all about. But it just appeared the other day.
"She's going to marry the dark lord and nothing is going to get in their way."
Yuuta: That makes no sense!
"So, this is your wife? You must be grateful! Your wife is going to be the queen of the underworld!"
Yuuta: Underworld? Dark lord? Queen?! As if i'd let my wife marry a dark lord!
"This conversation is over. Let's go if he gets in your way kill him."
They pushed me away and carried my wife.
Yuuta: As if I'm letting you guys take my wife!
I grabbed a burning wood, even if it burns my hand, i tried to hit the reaper with it but then.
"What a fool!"
As i swing the wood. He cut my hand. It hurts like hell. I was shouting out of pain.
With my other hand i tried to punch him in the face. Then he cut my other arm. I was bleeding too fast. I'm starting lose conscious. But i didn't give up. I won't let this guys take my wife.
That's when i remembered what my wife told me after our wedding.
Shinda: Hey Yuuta.
Yuuta: Yeah?
Shinda: We're married now aren't we?
Yuuta: Ye-yeah.
Shinda: Say...
Yuuta: Hm?
Shinda: Do you believe in our vow earlier in the ceremony?
Yuuta: Which one?
Shinda: to have and to hold from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, till death us do part.
Yuuta: You actually memorized it?!
Shinda: i have a brilliant memory you see.
She looks really happy that moment but what does she mean believe?
Yuuta: What do you mean believe?
Shinda: the moment we made the vow, i said to myself "i might break this vow."
Yuuta: Eh! Why?!
Shinda: the priest said, till death us do part and i'm against that.
Yuuta: Why? Is the priest wrong?
Shinda: It's not that i'm against the holy law. But i believe and swear upon this day that even if i die we will not be apart. I will be always by your side. I swear upon this ring, this place, and this day. Even death will not tear us apart.
She says that with a smile. At first i didn't get what it meant. And years have passed she was always by my side. She might be a bit arrogant and barbaric sometimes, still she's my wife and even if i die i'll use the rest of my heartbeat, my blood, and my life to save her.
I jumped and tried to headbutt him and then...
"Humans never learn."
When i jumped into him. I felt something burning in my chest. It hurts so much. That's when i realized, his scythe thrust in my chest, as i try to remove he kept on pushing it.
"Just stay quiet and die!"
As i fall in the ground, i started to lose my consciousness. I saw those guys taking Shinda away. I was weak, powerless and just let them took my wife away.
I was thinking "ah, this is it, i can't feel anything except pain. So this is how people die."
It's so dark in here. Is this heaven? Or the other place? Wait if this is the other place, then i must see those guys. I might be able to take my wife back.
Someone whispered.
"That's impossible."
Yuuta: Who are you?
"Pathetic man."
Yuuta: Don't ignore my question!
"Do you still wish to save your wife?"
Yuuta: I won't listen if you don't introduce yourself.
"Don't ignore me you stupid man!"
Yuuta: Then answer me who are you?
"I get it! If i'm in this form you might listen to me."
Yuuta: what?
Shinda: Y-u-u-t-a-k-u-n.
As i turned around i saw Shinda and what she looked like that night after our date.
Yuuta: Do-don't use Shinda's in that form!
"To be honest she's hot."
Yuuta: I know right! What i mean! Don't use my wife's embarrassing form you pervert!
"How about you close that gap in your hands first?"
Yuuta: All right i'll listen! Just go back to being a shadow!
"Good, although that form is only possible from your thoughts."
Yuuta: Shut up! Just go on in what are you going to say!
"Do you want to save your wife?"
Yuuta: Of course i do, but i can't because now i'm dead."
"Even if you sell your soul to a demon?"
Yuuta: what?
"If you were given a chance to live again what will you do?"
Yuuta: Of course i'll spend my life to save my wife
"Would you sell your soul to a demon for your wife?"
That's right i died, even if he ask this questions it's not like i will go back to life. After all this guy is just my mind speaking to me
Though if i were given a chance to live i will find a way to save my wife even if i have to sell my soul to a demon or a devil or someone who can have my life, i'll do it all for my wife.
Yuuta: I'll do what it takes to get my wife back.
"Interesting person. So this is how deep a married couple is like? Very interesting i see.
Yuuta: Now what do you want?
"If you're that determined then let's see if you can overcome all the test."
"Let's see how deep is the love of a husband."
Yuuta: what are you talking about?
The guy was gone. What was he talking about? It's not like something is going to happen right?
When i turned around i someone who stabbed my chest and in shock i get up and pant.
Wait? Get up? What did just happened?
