Katsuo slowly open his eyes. He tried to look around but can't see anything, it's too dark. He tries to move just to realise he is tied to a chair.
"What happend !? Where am i !?" - Katsuo asks himself. He has some blurry memories, that start to take form.
He remembers everything and feels huge pain in his abdomen. He doesn't feel blood but he start to scream.
"Help! Help! Somebody please help me!"
The door starts to open slowly, and a dark figure of a girl appears in front of the door.
Light comes from the other side, making katsuo's eyes hurt and him to start looking the other way.
"Shut up. Why are you so noisy ?" - Miyako asks calmly.
"Please, don't kill me. I swear i won't tell anybody about this." - Katsuo starts to cry.
"Just wait a little while i think what i am going to do with you. For now, just wait until food gets ready."
She closes the door.
"What am i going to do ? How can i get out of here ?" - Katsuo thinks to himself.
"Im gonna offer her money!" - He feels hope with this plan. He could pay her some money.
After a moment he realizes he barely has money for himself. He doesn't has enough money to pay for his survival.
Miyako opens the door, and turn on the light. Katsuo can see the room now. The walls are totally covered by glued newspaper. The floor has a furry carpet.
Katsuo realises he is wearing a different shirt.
She is holding a plate of food.
"I am going to put this plate on your lap, untie one of your hands and give you a fork. If you try anything funny, i'll kill you" - Miyako says with a serious face and lifeless eyes.

Katsuo is crying in fear for his life.
She unties katsuo's left hand ans gives him the fork. She goes to the door and waits there.
Katsuo start to shake. He can't eat, his hand is shaking too much. Miyako seems to be getting impatient with him. She takes the fork out of his hand, get some food on the shaking plate and says with a serious face, "open your mouth, or will stab you with this fork."
Even though Katsuo is crying, he opens his mouth. Miyako gives him food, and he just throws up at her hand and the floor.
"S-s-sorry! P-p-p-please forgive me! I'll clean it up!"
She looks to him with anger and despise.
"You are such a deplorable creature. You're only worth of pity."
Katsuo cries in silence while Miyako just go away with the food.
"You idiot! How could you do it! I am going to be killed by her now!" - he thinks to himself.
He can hear the sound of the dish beeing washed from outside of the door.
After some hours of silence, he tries to sleep without results. His fear of beeing killed while sleeping keeps him awake.
He starts to feel like he is deteriorating. His stomach is empty and started to hurt, his abdomen appears to be in a bad situation, the smell of vomit in the room just worsens his nausea. He is dying on the inside.
------
The door opens and Miyako gets inside with a plate of food.
"Are you hungry ? If you don't want it, i will give to some street dog."
He just looks at her with sadness in his eyes.
She takes the fork and gives him food in his mouth. He doesn't feel any taste in the food, but he barely has any strenght left in him.

He just swallows the food in silence while Miyako asks, "so, do you like it ?"
Katsuo looks at him and just mumbles a "yes".
"Great! It means i'm getting better!" - she says without any animosity in her voice.
She feeds him the rest of the food in complete silence.
After some time, Katsuo just passout from exhaustion.
----------
He start to wake up again, with the sound of the door opening.
"Looks like this isn't a dream after all..." - he says softly
Miyako enters with a chair, turns on the light, sits on front of him and with lifeless eyes says "Do you want to live ? I have a proposal to you."

{The Dragon Within} (Completed)
Meeting his fate at the hands of seven great heroes, the wicked drake now stands in Death's hall. Met with the Grim Reaper itself. Defeated and its pride broken, the drake doesn’t beg or grovel, it simply awaits judgement. It waits for the God of the afterlife to send it on its way, to either the heights of bliss and peace or where it knew it would be sent. The depths of agony and torture, the halls of Tartarus, the father of monsters. Grim looked up from its oaken desk and down at the creature that would have otherwise, if grown wiser and older, matched the reaper itself in power. Its faceless guise, hidden by a black hood and whirling shadows, it briefly stared at the drake. “You are unfit for the sky yet also too fit for the abyss,” Grim spoke, its voice a cracking whisper. “Your time came too soon, the actions you have taken will lead your world to ruin…Be reborn, pitiful serpent. Yet remember what you have done, see what your actions have made that realm into. Let me show you, how your greed and gluttony have warped such a wonderful place and time.” Grim raised its black-feathered pen towards the beast “Be reborn, as the weak pitiful creature you should have been born as. Take this both as a punishment and…a learning experience. For failure, can be the best teacher.” The drake took a step back, hoping to escape this cruel fate. Yet none escaped Death, less so its embodiment. Screaming shadows engulfed his form, ripping away at his body and shape. Fangs of darkness sinking deep into his draconic flesh, warping it, changing him into something else… Opening his eyes, the wicked drake felt none of its power, none of its magic and none of its might. As it stood at the edge of a cliff, looking down upon a ruined valley of rot and miasma. It glanced down at itself, seeing none of its sturdy scales or sharp claws. The drake had been reborn... As a Human. Will also be posting on CreativeNovels found here; CrN Where chapters will be posted earlier than RRL.
