The night when everything changed because I denied my existence as the Champion of Death.
We were walking down the road during the night, gazing at the stars as we laughed and smiled with each other. It was the last happy moment of that life... At midnight when we were on our way home, we heard screaming and yelling. We didn't know what was happening, so we decided to go find out; I regret that decision, it was the worst mistake of my life. I always heard a whisper when death was around the corner, but that time I heard a small, almost inaudible chuckle. I thought it was nothing at the time, but little did I know it was that bastard.
When we made it to where everyone was running away from, we saw a wave of Magical Beasts leaving nothing but destruction. We stared forward in horror and shock as we saw blood, intestines, and body parts everywhere. We were about to run, but what seemed like the leader of the wave of magical beasts, had set his sites on us. It dashed towards us and before I had even realized what happened, I was lying on my back and I couldn't feel the lower half of my body. I looked around and saw another magical beast eating it, I cringed at the sight but I ignored it. Because I had thought at the time was, "As long as my husband Anbu is fine we can get out of here." But when I looked around and saw him, I despaired. I will never forget that sight, the sight of him being eaten alive by the leader of the magical beasts; he yelled and flailed in pain. I yelled out his name and he looked towards me. When he saw me, he had a slight smile; it was a troubled smile, filled with sadness and gentleness. As we stared at each other, waitng for our deaths, he said his last words, they were, "I love you, if there is a next life. I hope to spend it with you again; even if another tragic fate like this were to happen." When he finished those final last words, the magical beast had swallowed the rest of his body and grinded him with its sharp teeth and powerful jaw. Then it looked towards me with a hungry look, as I stared blankly, then when it started to walk towards me, I was jolted awake. As it picked me up and started to devour me, I was relieved and my last thought before it swallowed the rest of my body and ended my life was, "At least we can die together, I hope we can see each other in our next life."

After that, I found myself in this dark and gloomy room, infront of that fucking bastard. I stared at him and he smirked and said, "You are my champion, yet why do you deny Death and only embrace Life?" I kept staring at him but with pure hatred. He then continued with a sigh, "You are going to reincarnate, but hopefully in this life you will accept Death." He didn't give me a chance to say anything as a black light surrounded my body, before I lost my vision; I stared at him with nothing but pure hatred and resentment...
