Episode 2

Namjoon p.o.v

It was hard moving forward, my feet were shackled connected to the ground so I just sat down feeling miserable and confused at my situation. I was dead wasn't I but I didn't feel dead and I most certainly didn't feel dead either. I looked at the cold black marble underneath me, I looked unusually pale dark circles decorated the area beneath my eyes. Dark veins erupted from my neck making their way to my face however the rest of my body seemed normal.

 I was lost in my thoughts lying on the cold hard marble floor when whispering broke out all around me. My head shot up and I tried to stand and run towards the voice but the shackles pulled me harshly down. More sprang out from the ground restraining me. I thrashed and kicked my arms flying out everywhere but the chains kept getting tighter and more restricting. I fell exhausted and broken missing my life why, why did this have to happen to me why am I suffering so much what had I done. . .

The whispering stopped and a sharp clear voice rang out,

"Kim Namjoon you are a rare entity caught between the fabric of life and death, due to your distinct situation you have the ability to travel between the realms of the living and the dead, you will be the new reaper the La Muerte you will bring the dead souls to us only the evil ones however for you are the reaper of darkness whomsoever you touch shall die and be sent here don't kill out of revenge. Now Leave!  "

 As soon as the last word left the speaker the chains around me fell and I felt free, a new kind of energy coursed through me making me feel full of life yet . . . sinister.

  A door formed through the shadows that surrounded me and as I stepped out of it I found myself in the same place where I had died, the cloak around me was gone and I was lying on  the floor bloodied and bruised but astonishingly I felt immune to the pain which should have been destroying my senses at this very moment but what shocked me even further was that it was around the same time that I had left this world. How long had I been in that place? I got up and struggled to walk even though I didn't feel the pain I was aware that I had a broken leg and several cracked ribs. I went inside the store and bought some medical supplies from a very scared and flustered cashier.

I walked towards my small apartment, entering it was a struggle with my numb fingers and slightly bent keys but I somehow managed. I saw Lilith sitting on the couch looking outside through the window as soon as her eyes landed onto me she let out a large yowl and bolted outside through the still-open front door. I desperately called out to her but it was useless. I was a monster now even Lilith hated who I was now. I closed the door and leaned against it involuntary tears escaping my eyes. I let myself fall down on the floor and I cried myself to sleep
