Chapter 1-Backliner

My friend tried to keep the werewolf away with the help of a mysterious bunny girl, while I was frozen in fear. I started to hit my legs to move and grab my fiancé’s hand and run, since she was his target. Yes I have a beautiful fiancé, her name is Alcestis, and you do not have a beautiful fiancé? Oh that is too bad. Eh? You are more interested in how my friend and the bunny girl are keeping the wolf away? Ok. He is using a sword with great technique mixed with some desperation, after all this is the first time we have seen a werewolf. The bunny girl seems to be using some martial arts, I am not an expert but maybe Muay Thai? Capoeira? Maybe that one she is using a lot of jumping and her legs in a dance like fashion. She is wearing some gauntlets and some armor on her legs. Finally my legs give up on me, I am such a coward.

The wolf brushes my two protectors away and comes to my fiancé incredibly fast and tries to impale her with his right hand. He impales and takes his bloody hand out, while dripping blood on the floor and so does the impaled body. He is surprised and I am incredibly shocked too, since I thought it would be more painful. I thought getting impaled in the heart would have hurt like a limb just exploded, but he did it so fast and accurately that I did not felt a thing just a bit cold and like I just lost something very important. Well of course I did, your heart is very important. If you are lost, yes, I got impaled, somehow I was able to rush up to them, and push Alcestis away, and like a lightning strike, I was impaled, like his hand was a very sharp lance. They said a bisturi is so sharp when cut with it, if you do not see you got cut, you do not feel a thing.

I dropped to my knees, and then soon my body was about to fall on the floor but Alcestis caught me. My friend drops to his knees and he looks defeated, the bunny girl follows the same but with a look that although she wanted to help this was the expected outcome, especially since she mentioned in the beginning that he was the former werewolf king. That did not surprise in the beginning, it surprised me that a fictional creature such a werewolf or a girl with bunny ears existed in the first place! But who cares about that right now, I’m dying now. My life was very meaningless before meeting Alcestis, so these last years with her have been amazing. I am quite sad I won’t get to marry her. But I’m glad she is not the one dying. For her I can die. Who am I kidding I do not want to die, I want to spend my life with Alcestis! It's getting dark, no, my vision is dark and I only feel the cold now reaching my entire body. I have not died yet? That is strange....oh I see, when people die they see either their life flash through them or their idea of the afterlife. For me it seems to be a pause in eternal cold darkness. That is depressing.

Because I was about to die and I was too afraid and could not accept reality. But now it is this eternal darkness and it is so cold, it is so depressing and hollow. Why am I making my final moment a hell that will torture me as time it is incredibly slow. It’s so slow, that inside my perception months could happen when even a second has not come to pass. Instead of this hell, why not drown myself in my memories and remember the bliss of my time with my bride. After all I am not the main character since well, I’m dying, and will not heal up, since my heart just got impaled.
