book 1 chapter 1 waking up

"wake up, wake up Mortuis" said a concerned  pale voice, however in response Mortuis started to shiver uncontrollably and without warning started to scream "  NO THIS CANT BE NO STOP IT STOPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP". Mortuis started to thrash around on his bed throwing pillows and messing up the bed sheets. 

"Are you all right Mortuis, whats wrong Mortuis" screamed the pale voice, as Mortuis was thrashing everywhere while sweating crazily, his entire body soaked to the bone along with his face being pale, as if he saw a nightmare beyond nightmares. When the pale voiced extended her hand towards Mortuis it was instantly knocked away, and instantly pain coursed through the female hand, as Mortuis had struck the hand hard and swift in his delirious state. 

"I'm sorry Mortuis but i didn't want to do this" said the pale voice, she then brought out a bamboo sword and struck  hard on his head, a loud CRUNCH was heard as it made contact with Mortuis head causing Mortuis to collapse back onto the bed with blood trickling down. 

"OH NO im sorry im so sorry, i hit you too hard " as the voice started panicking and started to run towards the bandages in the cupboard, As she left to find bandages Morituis started to wake up out of his nightmare from last night. 

"What was that dream, it felt too real to be a nightmare its giving me a bad feeling of whats to come soon, nah its probably some day dream about the novels i always read" said Morituis  despite trying to reassure himself he still has the sinking feeling of despair and darkness. 

"It's just a dream, a nightmare, I'ts not real, that's right its not real OW my head hurts" said Mortuis as he noticed the blood trickling down his face along with a massive head pain to accompany it. "Damn i'm also sweaty, just what happened to me" temporarily forgetting the dream Mortuis got out of the bed seeking answers, but upon noticing the time decided that he had to change fast to barely  make it in time to finish preparing for school. and that answers could wait later.

Bored Mortuis started to sing while changing,"La La La La changing clothes, La La La La". Suddenly Mortuis stopped in his tracks when he was changing "wait a minute i'm forgetting something important, but what is it". Suddenly steps started to be heard within the hall way going faster and faster as if the person sprinting is running from death. 

" OH SHIT, have to change fast or else" as Mortuis finished putting his pants on and was about to put on his shirt the door opened. A figure of a teenager girl panting while holding a roll of cloth used for bandages. The girl was quite beautiful for her age, having luscious long black hair hanging naturally, deep blue eyes that seems to draws you in, and a smile that can charm anyone. But currently far from an angel appearance she seemed like a devil with 2 horns coming out of her head as she dropped the bandages and took the bamboo sword lying next to the bed.

"WAIT for a moment Aurelia calm down, its not my fault its yours, Stop moving closer with the sword im injured from you already , what about school" screamed Mortuis shivering in terror while half naked as Aurelia drew closer and closer with eyes that radiated killing intent. 

Mortuis brain kicked into overdrive as he tried to find a fix to this dilemma that occurred, " shes coming closer and closer think, THINK what can i do, lets sees 

option 1 hug her = a temporary stop to her movement out of shock = not enough time to run = death

option 2 accept my fate = a lesser beating compared to resisting

option 3 distract her= nothing to distract with aside from physical or emotional moves = death

option 4 confess my love to her = im not even sure i love her since shes my childhood friend= once i do this no coming back= still a beating= marriage = end up forever 

option 5 take my bag = jump out of the window = massive pain due to head wound and height= hell later = avoid temporary beating.

Thats it i decided option 5, Aurelia im injured have mercy" as Mortuis said that he took his bag and the roll of bandages along with his shirt and jumped out the window, sprinting towards school while trying to put his shirt on while his stomach was growling all the while. 

"WHY DO I HAVE TO GO THROUGH THIS" screamed Mortuis as he was sprinting and his head hastily bandaged. 

While Mortuis was sprinting Aurelia calmed down, and started to think about the situation and realized she was wrong and she would apologize for her actions later, but currently she needed to finish packing for school including the stuff Mortuis left behind in his haste. Including his novels and manga he loves so much.

As she was about to leave she noticed something that her bamboo sword suddenly started to shine brightly for a moment, however she thought she must have imagined it as she checked it again the glow was gone. "time to go" said Aurelia but suddenly stopped and turned around for something her most treasured object, a locket containing a picture of Mortuis along with her as children holding hands.
