Synopsis

Chapter 1 - Prologue

Hearing those sounds or rather those voices.

Screams full of fear and cries of pain.

With their inability to change their current fate, together with shouts of anger or their own poor naivety. Thinking that they can change everything just because of their positions in society.

I hate such kinds of people.

Nevertheless, all those voices and the smell of blood in the air were covered by the sounds of gunshots and the scent of gunpowder.

What was going on?

How did this happen?

Why did this happen?

His was just supposed to be one another concert which was a little more important than the other ones... and yet...

The stage where he was going to perform was struck by a terrorist which resulted in countless deaths. After complaining internally of the turns of events. I started crawling away from the stage. But pain followed shortly after.

"Agh...my legs!" after trying to move, he noticed what state this body currently was in.

The explosion from the stage completely manage to chop one of his legs, while his other leg was barely being kept together from some muscle tissue. He also realized that he was bleeding heavily from his head since blood was starting to cover his eyes.

Of course, the pain was enough to make everyone cry out from the pain but he tried to keep his voice down as low as possible in hope that he wouldn't attract unwanted attention towards him.

Unfortunately, his struggle was meaningless.

While he was slowly crawling away, someone suddenly kicked this back with a huge amount of force, making him cry aloud in such amount of pain that moving an inch of his body was torture itself.

The one who kicked was one of the Terrorists.

The man opened his mouth and said something in a language that I couldn't understand. Shortly after, two other Terrorist came up and started laughing sinisterly for some reason.

But soon enough I realized why.

Baaam!

An incredible amount of pain came from my back together with a loud noise.

"Arghhhhh!" I screamed so loud that my vocal cords felt like exploding. The pain alone made me feel like my consciousness was fading away.

But I was naive.

Baam! Baam! Baam!

Multiple bullets were shot at my body. At first my shoulder, then left and right leg, and in my palms.

The pain was enormous...so strong that it was enough to bring my consciousness back.

I pained, despaired, confused, and at last.

Anger.

"Why!? Why are you doing this! For what purpose! For what reason! What will you achieve by doing this! What will you gain by doing this! Tell me!" I shouted with all my strength at them.

The Terrorists that were laughing a moment ago stopped and looked at me with a serious look. One of them bend to his knees and started talking in a language that I could understand.

"Why you ask? Isn´t it obvious?" The man's serious face turned into an even more sinister smile than the one before.

"Because it is fun!"

...huh? what did he just say?

"The sole reason why we are doing this is that we have the power of doing this. As a sinner like you, you should be grateful for our kindness by putting an end to this sinful life of yours. Also, If what I am doing brings me happiness at the cost of your happiness, why should I care?"

He puts this handgun at top of my head, while I was still dazed by the man's explanation.

"Afterall, that's what humans are"

Glaring at them I gritted my teeth and my eyes became bloodshot. How can someone like him be a human!? Ruining the life of others for their benefit can be understood. Since in our current time making enough for a living is extremely hard. But ruining the lives of others for what? Fun? Pleasure? Those are a madman!

"You guys aren`t human! If that's what humans are, I wish I was never a Hum-"

Baam!

That was the last sound that I heard before everything went pitch black.

Seeing my surroundings there was nothing, just pure darkness. I could only feel that I was slowly sinking into some kind of water. The more I sank, the more my consciousness was fleeing from my body.

"Mother...Brother...I should have listened...I am sorry that I...I...what was it again?" When my whole body sank beside my head I felt like my whole head was cleaned from any memories or any kind of information.

"Wait... where am I?" Now that I sank completely, I felt like my whole body became numb from my senses.

Inside there I even completely lost the sense of time.

A moment felt more like a whole decade.

Not that I know what a moment felt like...

So I kept sinking like this on what felt like decades. Completely Emotionless with no sense of Touch.

But for some kind of reason, I could feel one single Emotion...Hatred towards the so-called humans!

I didn't know the reason why but I despised humans to the very core.

I kept hating and despising these so-called humans for what felt like an all eternity.

Until I saw a massive silhouette before me.

And then, the feeling of being pulled from my inside out came before me.

I felt like being crushed and then remade again and again just so that this vicious circle can continue.

But what was more strange was that I could feel all these things. Feelings that I never experienced or rather... Forgot.

As I was confused by all those emotions, I heard a very cold and low voice inside my head.

"Your wish...has been acknowledged."

Before I could think about what the massive silhouette meant. The terrible feeling of being pulled from inside out faded away and the feeling of falling came.

*Splash!

"What the hel-!" Wait, I can talk? How come? And why can I see colors now?"

I tried to reach out my hand to check the area around me but... I felt a resistance!

It wasn`t like this before!

Before I couldn`t feel anything at all but now I felt a sense of...touch? I could feel the pressure of me pressing the ground with my hand but nothing else...as if something was missing...

I quickly dismissed these thoughts and I tried standing up.

After I fully stood up a different view came before him. In front of me was a beautiful-looking lake that was sparkling with blue light. Looking around me I saw some shining blue rocks on top of the lake to which I assumed were the light source of the blue lights.

Seeing this beautiful sight one would feel a sense of peace and appreciation.

"That`s weird...how did I end up here?" After collecting myself for a while a sense of confusion came straight to my mind.

"Huh? who am I?"
