I know this is already quite cliché. In fact,

even I didn't expect something like this to happen,let alone that I would respond in this way.

But... that look... that look was something I couldn't ignore.

That's when I realized I did have courage, I... I had courage, I felt it, all my life I had thought I was a coward, but at that moment when I spread my arms wide open protectively in front of that unknown woman, in front of a weapon that in reality and physically I had never seen....

My arms were trembling, sweat was pouring out of my pores all over my body as I had never done before, no exercise had never made me sweat as much as this situation...

Even for a moment I thought I was going to make it out of here alive, since I could hear the sirens of the police cars approaching.

But well, apparently it seemed that the criminal in front of me who was shaking just like me as I was, apparently he didn't like hearing that noise as he fired the gun and I felt a dull impact in my chest, near my heart.

I don't remember much afterwards, but I am sure I saw the man was handcuffed by some policemen, ambulances sounding nearby, a lot of lights everywhere, and I even think that the woman I had whom never seen in my life, I saw her crouched down near me, crying and moving her mouth as if she was talking to me...

Too bad I couldn't hear anything, and it seemed,being satisfied with how it all ended,I simply saw little by little how the darkness was filling my sight.

My name is Alex, from Alexander, and my last name is Smith, I always liked my last name even though I am not American.

I always had a normal life, the same like my age group, a little Hikimori when I had free time, but since I also went out a lot, and even had a job, I think I was normal.

I really like Anime, Mangas,Comic Books, Movies, Novels, and even fanfiction, they took literally 90% of my time, but since I like them I never saw them as something wrong, or out of ordinary.

I was 21 years old, in two months it's my 22nd birthday, and I was neither skinny nor fat, I liked to say I was strong.

I went to the gym a lot, I didn't run that much since I preferred dead weight exercises to cardio.

As for girls... although I did have a girlfriend in pre-college I didn't get to last base with her....

Yes, I'm still a virgin, "Dotei" if this were Japan. I loved Japan, loved its anime, and Hent- *cough* *cough*, its many literary circles.

Too bad that although I wasn't poor, I always knew how to survive independently and I managed quite well, I could never go to that country, another of my regrets. And well, to be honest, after having read so many Fanfics, to see how the MC's had Wishes and reincarnated with their Cheats and all that.... it's a bit silly but even I myself had a list of this.

I always thought about it, that the moment such an unreal and fictitious situation would happen to me, I would have my wishes ready...

This is what happened, in a nutshell:

I was coming back home from work in the afternoon. On a normal day, I was passing by the same road as every day, although it was a slightly dangerous area, I was already familiar with it.

In an alley that was usually empty, I watched with my eyes as a man struggled a woman, an attempting to rape her.

I don't know why I approached them

quickly, it is strange nowadays for someone to act like this, I didn't even know well what the situation was, the woman could have been this man's wife and this was a family problem.

If I had to say why I took the Jump, the most I could say was that I did it after seeing the eyes of that lady...

I've never seen of those eyes ...

I never thought that they would have gone so deep ...

the eyes of a corpse, that eyes was exhausted in despair, the eyes that someone should have given up on everything.

I quickly arrived in front of them and after I pushed the man as hard as I could, I stand in front of the woman and waiting for the guy to fight.

But it wasn't like that, when he looked at me and looked at the woman behind me, he pulled a gun from his back and pointed it at me.

At that moment I just opened my arms to try to cover the woman behind me with my body, I didn't even know why I did it, I didn't even know why the police were coming through this alley next to some ambulances but I was still happy about it.

The man pulled the trigger and well, since I fell to the ground with my own blood on the my own blood spilled, I was pretty happy because at least at the cost of my death, I saved a life.

That's all.

I wouldn't see my acquaintances anymore, even though I was an orphan and independent I still interacted with people I considered my family, apparently this will be goodbye.

Only darkness filled my vision...after this, I didn't know if I had eyes or hands as I felt nothing, absolutely nothing.

I know this is rather cliché, I know, but

I was still really hoping for a God or Goddess with big breasts to come and give me some wishes to be reincarnated. Ha, like that's gonna happen.

"'So this is what's after death, huh?'

All black, all dark.

Until...
