So this is a two-part story for Halloween(not scary just angsty/darkish?). Just an idea that popped into my head. Hopefully it makes sense!

No ownership of any characters and so forth!

Chapter 1: As you were


She didn't remember dying.

While she didn't remember dying, she recalled the pain before embracing the inevitable darkness. The pain, she never forgot. She remembered fighting alone and the laughter of someone else's victory. She remembered the sheer terror of having no breath- not even to cry as the crushing weight of a sword ended her life. In her last moments, as the world became hazy and dark; she welcomed death.

Sometime after- she didn't know how long- she woke in darkness.

I can't breathe

Blindly reaching out, her fingertips met something solid.

I can't breathe

Wasn't she supposed to be doing something?

I can't breathe

The smell of dirt invaded her senses.

I can't breathe

Wasn't she supposed to be somewhere?

I can't breathe

Wasn't someone waiting for her?

Desperate, she began to claw around her. Her hands groped at the walls that seemed to surround her. Her cries of frustration muffled in the hollow darkness. She began to claw with fury, not noticing the blood that started to drip down her hands and onto her arms. She certainly didn't notice the blood that slid down her face from a criss-cross scar that had been carved there.


AU: Hopefully, at this point, its clear this is a alt- verse/path of Jinchuu! Stay tuned for the ending!
