"Oh, bloody shut up. My head is ringing."

//First PoV (Skeleton life

Broken. Final hit. But I always expect it. To go down in such a noisy place.

When my skull broke, a dark membrane came down on my consciousness.

Everything turned black. I imagined it would be quiet now.

I didn't feel anything. I didn't think anything of it.

Until...

Dish!!

Plop*

Plop*

Plop*

Vibration in the sky.

Bang!

A skull hits a hard tree.

I hit my feet and my head hard.

It also fits the body vertically. I lie in a narrow box.

Coffin.

This is the coffin. I'm lying in a coffin. The lid is open, so I can only see the sky.

A tomb was dug up. A coffin in it. There's a skeleton lying there.

Boom! Boom!

Shoot it!

The seal to cover the tube was roughly dugout. Something, more than human hands. I felt overwhelmed by natural things.

'It's worth the rain. '

Rain splattered on my rusty head, my enamel slowly wearing off of my shiny teeth, my senses telling me that my body lies ahead of me, well, my head.

I feel like I have an old headache. I touched my head with my hands.

It was disconnected from my body, but I simply felt emotionless.

Raise my hands and stroke my smooth head.

A smooth skull was touched. The hard metacarpal bone and skull collided to create a familiar yet unfamiliar rattling sound.

Knock, knock!

I hear a sound. I try again.

Knock, knock!

Again.

Knock, knock!

It's strange.

Something's not right.

I raised my hand. I looked up, five of my knuckles are intact.

I try to bend. I try again. All clear. my fists are clenched.

Tak. Tak.

Wait a minute...

I can see my bones.

Despite the discovery, I felt no different than before.

A wave of helplessness emerged in my mind, only to disappear instantly.

I felt different.

I felt... Nothing?

I seemed to be on the edge of thoughtlessness and death, and am unable to cross my pathway to... where again?

I felt no need for satiety. No need for sleep. No need for Sex. No need for Joy, Hatred or any other emotion.

I felt as though I had lost all that made me human. And I hope I remain this way...

Put your finger bones against each other. White bones touch each other and make a sound.

Allas! Fate never seemed to go my way.

A scent overwhelmed my mind. It was yet again a familiar yet unfamiliar creature. One with eyes, muscle, and bone, similar to mine.

It assaulted me, aiming to disable me with the maximum efficiency.

A ruthless jab and right hook getting contact on my body.

The unique smelling creature dislocated my shoulder with the softest touch, its care seemingly unable to bring a change in me whatsoever.

The creature once again moved to dislocated my entire left arm.

One arm flew away and then the two dislocated arms were in place.

I then looked up at my broken legs.

I tried to fix them together, and they did indeed fix, making the broken mark disappears. All five toes are still moving.

I pushed all over my body.

Pelvis. Thighs. Spine.

I'm starting to feel my whole body.

A humble and crude body.

"It must be broken."

It felt weird to speak. An unfamiliar stretch muscle took me by shock as it articulated my speech, a fairly intangible muscle of some sort that seemed soft and disappeared when gripped hard.

However, right after my speech, my body fell down,

My arm was crushed to powder. A broken body that failed to protect my wife.

What...

What are these memories?

A constant flow of memories enveloped the poor me as I have regained my consciousness for the first time.

However, the flow soon stopped as I once again no longer remembered the incident.

However, I soon felt that presence again.

Memories deep inside a bone-marrow body about a man that has never had it easy. I couldn't help myself but feel misery in my existence. At about the same time, my hate grew, slowly turning into a seething rage.

I no longer see a difference between the living and the dead. I just hunted, trying to satisfy this endless unquenchable thirst for my vengeance.

But what vengeance was it?.

But this is me. I could clearly feel it.

I looked up at the sky.

Flash, flash, flash!

Lightning strikes. The blackness of the sky brightens.

Then again, I often heard sounds.

Grrr! Grrr! Kwakwang!

Thunder rumbles in a row. Thunder is loud as the lightning was loud.

My body is ringing.

And...

It's raining.

Whew! Whew!

The wind is noisy. It digs through the ground. Tear off the branches.

The dug and torn fly through the dark air.

I'm slowly monitoring the situation. I checked to see for carnage, as it had finally devoured me

Day 14561

It had been a long time.

I'm not even a shell of my former self. My anger had swallowed me up, as my thoughts are constantly influenced by the souls of other dead, corrupting my soul as it tries to possess my rotting body.

Lying down. I slammed my head up.

At that moment.

Tiring!

An impetuous sound suddenly resonates in my head, not at all compatible with the surrounding environment. Rings like a giant bell inside the skull.

That sounds really bothered.

And...

Something translucent appeared before my eyes.

It's only Black Night, but I can see clearly.

A stream and a shing* later my head is once again on the floor.

My Hopelessness that never seemed to go away is finally gone. A sense of satisfaction enveloped me as I had realised I can once again feel emotions. Looking at the body of the Undead that slashed at me, I could only give my gratitude by bowing before leaving.

//Sorry for not getting on the point, But I need to sleep and I had this idea of showing a skeleton's soul before being consumed by rage and hatred. It was an irregular thought and I hope you guys like it. I will upload a minimum of 2 chapters tomorrow, each at around 1k+ words. Hope you enjoyed the novel.

I hope that you can add this novel to your library if you can and please provide power stones if you enjoy the novel and want me to have more motivation to upload every day.

Ciao!!!
