CAUSES OF DEATH ARE MANY AND VARIED

OLD AGE, ILLNESS, SUICIDE

BUT OUT OF THAT LONG MORBID LIST, THERE'S ONE END THAT PEOPLE FEAR ABOVE ALL OTHERS





















DEATH BY FIRE

It was fairly warm out —Roughly 92 degrees— when I had made the decision of going out for a walk to stretch my sore legs.

I wore a simple black shirt along with a pair of black cargo pants that where a shade lighter, they were held up by a dark grey belt. I really had a thing for dark colors if you couldn't already tell.

I had recently moved into the city of Tokyo with hopes of finding good adventures as I heard this is where all the action goes down. I was currently crashing at a newly rented apartment, it was rather on the expensive side, but that was no problem for someone like me.

"Ahh, everything is so nice right now" I spoke to nobody in particular as I made my way down the roads, getting accustomed to them.

"The weather is so nice. . . . Im sure even Anabeth would enjoy it. . . ." It had been 4 years since that night. I always tried not to think about it, but no matter what I did, I always found myself think back to it.

It was simply horrible just thinking about it.

Although. . .

Even back then there was some light at the end of the dark and long tunnel, just not the way you would imagine.

-—Flashback—-

Darkness. . . that's all there was. . . all I could see. . . all I could feel. . .

Could this perhaps be what heaven looks like? No. . . It couldn't possibly be that, I mean I was never the best kid growing up and I'm not really religious so I don't know why I had thought that.

Perhaps this is simply what becomes of one in the afterlife?

Definitely a much better guess than what I had previously thought of. Will this really be it? Floating about in complete darkness for the rest of eternity?

I had never truly believed in reincarnation so I had no hopes such as being reborn into a wealthy family or being gifted power or any trivial matters such as those.

Although if I had to choose...

I would want some reading material instead.

This place. . . It's awfully soothing. Very quiet, very peaceful. . . Very lonely

Immediately after thinking that, the darkness around me had begun to warp to a singular point before letting out a bright glow, so bright I would have gone blind had I not covered my eyes.

Once the glow had died down I slowly opened my eyes and began to scan my new surroundings. I had no idea what I could describe this to be.

No life could be seen no matter where you looked. Black flames burned furiously across this empty white void.
