《Re:Immortal》6. Covered in blood
Advertisement
I have woken up in the puddle blood. It was everywhere, on the ground, on the walls of the buildings, on the now red grass… The smell…
It was disgusting. Why is there so much blood? What happened?
I looked around. Everything was covered in it. There was so much of it, that it must have originated from several, maybe ten bodies. The ground was so wet… Why? What happened?
What is making that noise? An animal?
Near the center of the village, a lone wolf was eating something. He was greedily biting a piece of human’s body. A head…
This face… I recognize it… Those big black eyes, and short brown hair… Lookin at me like that…
My breathing got louder, when I remembered. My hands trembled when I looked at it. My legs, arms... My head. Parts of my body lying on the ground... My intestines, covering the road.
“N-No... N-No... Please… Stop!” I looked at the wolf. The day was ending, and he was the only one the didn’t leave the village.
One… Two… Three… Three heads were lying on the ground. Each one of them looked the same, staring at me with empty eyes.
“S-Stop, please…” I said, and got up slowly.
I approached him, walking through the piles of bones and limbs. He didn’t seem to care, nor did he look at me.
Does it taste so g-good? L-Leave it… Leave it please… Leave me!
When I was near him, he growled with anger, as if he wanted to defend his food. His meal. I’m not your meal. M-My head, leave it. Leave it please. Stop…
Why are you so angry? I should be the one to be angry… Leave it!
Leave it. Leave it. Leave it. Leave it!
I grabbed one of the rocks from the ground, and threw it at him. When it hit him, he looked at me irritated. His teeth were showing, and he was getting ready to jump on me.

I just grabbed another rock from the ground. When I was bending, he attacked me. Once again I felt the teeth penetrating my neck. He threw me on the ground, and I felt the same pain as before.
I will kill you… I will kill you all!
I started smashing his head with the rock. At first he didn’t seem to care, and just waited for me to stop resisting… He waited for me to die… There was no end to his waiting.
He whined a little, when I hit his eye. I didn’t wait, and hit him again, and again, and again… He started bleeding, and his grip became weaker. He released me only, when I attacked his eye so strong, that the rock got stuck in it.
When he backed off, my throat healed once again. The pain… It seemed so bad before, but now I didn’t even notice it.
As I got up, the wolf looked at me with anger. I didn’t care, and I just grabbed another rock.
I will kill you. I will kill you… I will kill you...
When I approached him, he started running towards the forest.
Why… Why did you do that to me?
I touched my neck, and then my head, to see if it was still in its place. Why? What happened? Why are my body parts lying on the ground? I looked at the head of the boy that was now under my feet.
It was hard to describe it. It had so many wounds, and one of the eyes was missing, but I was sure… It was mine…
Why… Why? Why is this happening?
The tears finally escaped my eyes. I was crying like a child, when I remembered. Remembered how they ripped my body apart - how they fed on on it.

This boy… Who is it? He’s not me! I didn’t die! It’s not me!
Me legs felt weak, and I fell to the ground. I tried to get up, but I was too tired… I was just lying there, covered in my own blood.
As I cried, I heard a noise of the opening door. A man that I knew for so long, that helped me, and raised me…
He was now looking at me with disgust.
