I slowly open my eyes. Two strange people are looking at me.
* Who are they? *
I try to get up, but my body isn't responding.
They look terrifying… like they'd devour me at any moment.
They lift me and smirk at me. They're speaking some strange language — I don't understand a word.
I need to tell them to let me go.
"..."
I can't talk.
My mouth feels like it's stitched shut.
I feel… smaller.
I need to do something. Anything.
I turn my head to look around, hoping to find something — anything — that could help.
Nothing.
Just a filthy, red-stained window.
My reflection stares back at me.
A baby.
I've been reincarnated… into the body of a baby.
And yes — my mouth is actually stitched shut.
Hours pass.
I realize I haven't gained full control of this body. I don't feel pain, not completely. Sometimes I'm moving without trying. Other times, I'm asleep — but I still see everything.
You might ask: how do I know I was awake?
Because I remember it all. Even in the moments when my eyes were closed.
Those two freaks came by every hour. Just… watching me.
A day goes by.
They start preparing something. I don't know what. They bring in four wooden logs and a few planks. It looks like they're building a table… right beside me.
They bring chairs too.
They stay the whole day, bathing me and dressing me in clean clothes, and cleaning the house.
It's like they're getting ready for a special event.
I feel sleepy now.
I fall asleep. When I wake up, something's different.
I think I've finally gained full control of this body.
Only minutes have passed.
I'm being carried.
Then, I'm placed on a table.
It's empty. Cold.
I try to move, but I can't.
Too small. Too weak.
The two of them stare at me.
One touches my leg and starts to drool.
The other strokes my hand slowly, almost lovingly.
Then suddenly, they grab my arms and legs…
And rip them from my body.
* AHHHH!!! IT HURTS — MY LEGS, MY ARMS — NOOOO!!! *
The pain is beyond anything I've ever felt.
I scream. I cry. But my voice is nothing but helpless wailing.
I watch, helpless, as they chew on my limbs like cooked meat.
One grabs my private part, rips it off, and tosses it aside like trash.
The pain doesn't stop.
My vision blurs.
Blood pours down the table.
My consciousness flickers… but I'm still here.
I see one of them — the one who ate my arms — walking toward me.
He reaches down… grabs my head…
And yanks.
My skull separates from my body, the spinal cord still dangling.
And then…
I died.
I open my eyes, and it is dark in every angle I look, no gravity either, too dark seems like there is no end to it at all.
There is no surface either, my stomach is not feeling well.
* I feel like puking.*
I vomited, and the vomit was floating as well.
"That confirms that there is no gravity here."
"Wow, I can talk, my hands are big, looks like I am in my original body."
What now? Where am I? After life?
What am I suppo-
"Wait, I see a bright light, it's coming this way."
It speeds up as it gets closer.
I close my eyes as the light approaches.
