《Reaper of the Shadows》Prologue: Death is not the end
Advertisement
It was the usual routine. Wake up, eat breakfast, take a shower, go to work... It was boring as hell and by the time my shift was over, i left the building. It was infuriating that i had to take another blame from something i didn’t do, it was there fault and they got away with it with a smirk on there face.
I went home after going to a nearby convenience store, buying dinner. I know it’s not healthy for you to buy cheap noddle every night, but im broke and my payday is still a two weeks away.
"Fuck those stupid assholes!" I said releasing my frustration.
As i kept walking i felt like someone was watching me. I couldn’t tell who it was since it was too dark to see. I kept walking and kept turning back to see if someone was there. There was. I didn’t panic in a situation like this, since being able to work this late means you have to be prepared for this kind of situation. As i kept walking and turning to corners to try and evade my Stalker, with no avail. I even tried to call the but my phone died before i could even talk to them (That’s the last time i’ll be buying something as cheap as this). There was literally nothing i could do other than run to my house and hope for the best. As i took turns to try and lose my stalker, i finally reached my house (Or a rundown apartment). I went inside, lock the door, close the window, and took a peak outside. No one was there, thank god.
When i thought i was in the clear, i wasn’t. There, i saw a figure in the corner of my house wearing a hoddie, preventing me from identifying who he or she was and was holding a knife firmly. We stood there looking at each other for a few moments. And i made a run for it. It may be a stupid move to run when someone you don’t know comes to your house (Apartment) uninvited (Unless if there your friend then that earns them a smack/kick to the face). I made it out of the house and lock the door since i still have my keys. But a knife then went through the door and surprised me making me fall down. As i recovered, i made a run for it. I don’t care whether or not it’s someone i know just as long as i could live!

With those thoughts in mind, i was stabbed from behind. I ran as fast as i could and he or she could catch up. As i looked behind, i saw Her. Since she was close to me and there was light from where i was stabbed, i can finally see who stabbed me. It was girl with red eyes, white hair and she wore a mask. As she pulled the knife from my back i stood my ground since i was used to pain and she missed my heart and lungs (duh). I heard her mumbling something but since she was ready to kill me in any given moment i kicked her as hard as i can causing her to fall down. I limped away as fast as possible but then saw the girl again in front of me. She must have took a short cut or ran here without me noticing. She charged at me, knife in one hand and the other looks like a fist. With the wound in my back dodging was difficult but not impossible.
I ducked before she could slice my neck in half and stepped backwards to avoid the fist that almost hit me. The injury from my back is intense and i can fell the pain getting worse. With a grunt i kicked the girl again, this time with less force since i didn’t put my back into it (get it?). Good thing i took Boxing club, if not then i would have been killed by know. As she recovered from my kick she charged at me again, pulling out a second knife and threw the first one at me. I dodge but my the pain was unbearable and the knife made contact with my right shoulder. With a grunt, i punched in front of me hoping to hit the girl but instead she ducked under and stabbed my heart.

As i coughed blood and fell down with two knives in my body (even deeper since i fell down), the girl walked in front of me. I glared at her with rage in my eyes and wondered what did i do to her...
"Do you wish too leave this world behind?" She said.
I was surprised of what she said and thought what was she thinking?!
"Heh, this is what i get for doing nothing but getting bossed around by my co-workers, since im dead i might as well say goodbye to this Fucking world!" With a curse, she smiled.
She was laughing maniacally. Looks like this will be the last time i saw those fucking assholes and good fucking riddance. Then as i was losing blood and coughing blood as well, i died.
