I am.
i know so, because i just became.
Language is weird.
i try to remember exactly what happened but it seems vague.
a sense of hate and jealousy is all i can feel and i let myself wallow in those feeling for a bit.
i open my eyes and take in the sight of the environment around me.
i am currently under a bridge on one its foundations in the middle of the river.
i look at the clear water running around it and see my reflection.
my body glimmers just like the water surface and my eyes glow in a dullish red, along with some vein like cracks along my arms and torso.
as i am looking down i notice a shadow go past me plunging into the water.
i jump right after it, grabbing the quickly sinking mass and chucking it onto the concrete platform.
It's a man, and he seems miserable.
I can see on his face that he is miserable.
I don't know how but i recognise what is wrong with him.
He has been drinking to try and run from the suffering he feels.
This book's true home is on another platform. Check it out there for the real experience.
He gives me a quick look before breaking down in tears.
- Why?
We both ask simultaneously.
I stay silent as he looks at me in confusion.
- Why did you save me, why didn't you let me die!
He asks tears streaming down his face mixing with the water dripping from his hair.
-i want you.
… He hesitates for a bit almost grinning before turning into a face of rage.
- Sorry, but i don't swing that way… or at the very least not towards, whatever you are.
I grumble a bit shoving a finger into his chest.
- Not “you”, your body “you”, i want a human body.
He turns weary, looking at me once more, something he had been avoiding for a while.
- And why would i make a deal with a literal demon?
- You seem pretty desperate since you just tried to commit suicide. Or i could simply kill you and take your body, you WERE about to throw it out anyway. Sooooo…
He choked in amuseme… no he had just inhaled some water, nevermind.
- You know what?!
He says making a slight pause to catch his breath and cough some more water.
- Fuck it you are right, just make sure you make a better use of my life than i.
We both lose ourselves laughing at his stupid comment.
As he laughs i jam my fingers in between his ribs piercing into one of the major veins, where i start pumping my “blood” into
My body deflates and loses its red color as it falls to the ground with a dry thud, and starts crumbling to dust.
All before he had even been able to scream from the pain.
He yells a bit and tries to clutch his clothes in panic.
He calms himself down once he notices nothing wrong with his chest, turning instead to my crumpled body.
- What now?
He asked, not to me but to the world itself.
-now we start by improving your life and subsequently mine.
I said right into his mind.
