"…………..thump…………."

"….Thump…"

"Thump.."

………………… What was that ? A sound…….

"Thump"

That sound again. I heard it before. But that sound ,seem liek ages it ago. I felt something moving inside my chest. Something swirling and rushing.

Now I felt like it went to my head . But I was too tired. Can't I rest? It was bright here. Bright, yet comfortable. It was peaceful.

"Thump!" My head!Urgh!!Wait !when it started to be dark? Where the light goes? My body… pain everywhere. I can't moved..I tried to move a finger. I felt its slowly shaking. Then I slowly try to move other body parts. Soon all my body was shaking. Slowly I tried to open my eyes lids.

It was dark. And cramp .I tried to feel anything that my hand could touch. I felt an opening . But I couldnt get up. Something blocked me. This is frustrating! I somehow feel something glow in my hand. I felt that I knew this feeling. I focused my mind. The glow in my hand became stronger.

A strong red glow could be seen from far. Pieces of crystal coffin flying about That is, IF there was anyone within the surrounding area.

"Puhhh! "I rose my head and threw up the dirt from my mouth !Cough! I may need water…

As if god heard my prayer. It started to rain drizzling.

With much effort I tried to get up (upper body only) and washed my face (with rain). I tried to get my bearing.

My eyes still hazy and my head still dizzy. It still dark but not as bad as just now. After a while my vision became clearer. Slowly my dizziness started to disappear . I pulled my self up. In front of me I saw a pavement. There were dirts everywhere. And the rain was not helping at all.

I looked around my surrounding. There wasn't anybody.A few lights here and there. But thats it. I believed that the moon light was more of help if it wasn't because the rain. There were many stone plate lined up horizontally. Same size. Both left and right of me too. I looked behind me. There it was , the famous stone plate. With the aid of moon light, I traced my hand on its wording "Here lies beloved Fate T. Harlown. AD 59- AD 79."

Fate … Hmm...That sound like my name. Wait! It is my name! I held the plate with both shaking hands. Nope the writing still there. It didn't disappeared. I stumbled myself backwards onto the pavement.

This was a cemetery!!!

What happened!? I died? Ugh!!My head!!It seems that my memory all jumble up. But it seems so, since my name is there. No wonder my neighbors are all squares. Correction, in square.

Wait .Think later . Deep thinking inside cemetery was not advisable. Especially in front of your grave. As an added bonus it was at night . Cant say that was a bad thing. If this had happened during the day ,someone might have a heart attack. Beside me that is.

Jokes later . Need to get out fast.

I was unable to run. So I tried to walk as fast as I could. I suddenly stopped . Wait . My grave was still a mess. There was a hole in front of the plate with no occupant. I don't think it will be prudent to leave at that state.

.............

After some time ,though it was not perfect crime scene, at least it wasn't so obvious as before. I borrowed some flower and spread it over my grave. Courtesy of my neighbor... 'A neighboor in need is neighbour indeed.'

All that hardwork hard warmed up my limbs. I guessed if you stop moving your body for a long time , moving it back might create some problems. I better get out of here.

After some time, I found my self in a large park. I was hungry and had no money. There was fountain in front of me . I saw my reflection . I dressed in nice white lacy dress. Somehow I believe being inside that crystal had preserve myself and my dress from decomposed . I wonder if all us goners were like . I don't think so. We would ran out of land.
