Am I cursed?

I am currently lying on a bed. Not my bed. I don’t have a house in this city anymore. So, I have been provided with a shelter.

I am currently staying at the hotel Boss owns. That very same presidential suite where I changed my clothes.

It’s nighttime. Today has been full of ups and downs. Let’s summarize and reflect.

I have made a lot of careless mistakes since coming here. I have been busted by those black guys as well.

They aren’t that important anyway. So I won’t bother mentioning their name.

Let’s see, I got up this morning, had my breakfast at a nearby diner. Then went to the bank to withdraw some money.

In the bank, I got stuck playing the hostage. It took me a while to get out of there. Then I got tangled up with someone I never expected.

I still haven’t mentioned her name but I will in due time. However she is a police officer now. I have to be careful.

The police and the Yakuza don’t get along. She really was a fighter of justice. If she is still like that then I will be in trouble.

I have to take extra precautions since I will be living here for a while.

Then I finally managed to reach the station in hopes of catching the train but my luck!!

I got caught by Boss’ men. They blindfolded me and took me to an abandoned garage. I got splashed with water and got muddy.

Moreover, Boss kinda convinced me to return to his gang. Then I came to this hotel.

I got changed and joined the meeting. There I met Mona and father.

I met Mona for the second time. The first time was in the diner.

She was talking to me all curiously and even said that we would meet again.

Who knew that we would meet again so quickly? Since the meeting began, I got a bad premonition.

It became true. Those damn black guys attacked our building out of nowhere. They took control of the reception and barged right into the meeting center.

And they all fired at me. Just at the sight me, they started shooting which really annoyed me. I couldn’t do anything about that.

So I suggested that I run away to lure them away and I did. They all fired at me and started running after me. But the police saved the day again.

With that, I got stuck watching over both ojou-sama and Mona.

Boss and father have decided to build a good relationship. So they have appointed their daughters as ambassadors.

Now I have to look after them as their chaperone. The work starts from tomorrow. So I have to rest up tonight.

Though for some reason I cannot sleep.

I look at the clock. It’s almost 12. The date will soon change when there’s a knock on the door.

Who could it be at this hour is what I think. But I have to open the door. So I get up from the bed and open the door.

There’s a bellhop. Wait! I didn’t ask for room service.

“I didn’t call for room service.” I tell the bellhop.

But he clearly ignores me. I get a look at his face. And with that I understand who this bellhop is.

He swiftly pressed a hand towel against my nose. I smell something sweet and a bit sharp.

My mind is getting hazy. I can’t maintain my consciousness anymore.

This is chloroform. I am being sedated. I can clearly break free from this. But knowing who is behind this, I think it’s better to finish this matter. And I lose consciousness.

◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇

Our protagonist has been kidnapped. But the bellhop is skilled as well.

He tucked Akito in the trolley he brought. Closed the door and started pushing.

He then took the staff elevator and went to the room service center. There he took out Akito and put him in a body bag.

And that body bag was thrown violently inside an ambulance.

Akito was being kidnapped in a really weird manner.

The ambulance started and it went outside of the city.

The ambulance stopped at an abandoned mill this time. A mill? Even in films, this is a clichéd development.

They brought out the body bag and brought out Akito.

They strapped his body to a chair. It was fixed to that place and Akito had been bound from every possible direction.

The one who is the mastermind behind this is quietly watching as their followers are dealing with Akito.

“Now, splash that bastard with water.” They said with intense hatred. They would kill Akito if given a chance.

◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇

I wake up. I find myself strapped to a chair and I am wet again. This is midnight. Who splashed me with water at this hour?

I look around. There’s very little light. I can’t see too well. But suddenly a big light blocked my vision.

My eyes weren’t used to the light so I avoid it. However, someone caught my head and made me look at the light.

They are thoroughly enjoying this. I endure it. Then they stopped that light and lit up the whole area.

I get a clear view. This is an abandoned mill.

I am strapped to a chair which is set to the ground. I have been tied all over and I cannot even move my hand.

“Well well, it has been a while.”

I say that. I clearly know who did this and why? But is it something good? The day changed and yet it feels like my luck hasn’t changed.

This sucks. But what can I do? I have been kidnapped for the second time.

I have to choose my words carefully or even my body won’t be found and I will be labeled as a missing person.

    My next torture was flogging. I would be flogged by the torturers infinitely for an indefinite period. But I made a dash for the entrance of the layer the moment I was out of the vat. I found out that day that the guards of hell were actually pretty weak.If I have to sum it up, the guards of hell were as strong as a regular human. They were humanoid but had totally different looks.They were grotesque to say the least. Even a glance at them would give you nightmares for days.Looking at them for so long, I became accustomed to their looks. At first, I couldn’t differentiate between them. Eventually I got the hang of it and I started to notice their individual differences.I tried talking to them but they do not have their own will. They were like flesh dolls with primitive commands.Their jobs were following the schedule and guarding hell. I pushed them into the vat and dashed towards the entrance. Many guards came for me but my body was different somehow.I was stronger than the g

  • Alina: part-1

    Let’s go back in time a bit. I was in hibernation but the timer ran out. I had a rude awakening. My consciousness was dizzy and memories were jumbled. It was similar to a hangover. I was lost in my thoughts, trying to piece together my memories. It was painful as if my life had changed. Then I slowly remembered what had happened. I went from being a hopeless romantic to being branded as a heretic and executed. It didn’t end there. I went from being in the afterlife to being thrown in the deepest layer of hell. All of this happened because I was in love. I had a lot of time there. I had some companions to keep me company down in hell. I cooled my head. It’s both metaphorical and literal. The deepest layer of hell, Niflheim, was a cold place. The average temperature ranged from absolute zero to even lower than that. In the third dimension, it would have been impossible due to the physical limitations of the dimensions but Niflheim transcended dimensions. It was possible. The col

    The situation is pretty dicey. Every creator is confused. Azathoth has gone missing. I will not take any direct actions and primordial creators are coming out, one after the other.I may be called Constant but even I didn’t expect this outcome. Azathoth was asking questions that were rather troublesome to answer.I didn’t want to deal with the fallout so I just ignored him. For some unknown reason, Chthulu thought I had a plan. She went ahead talked about my nonexistent plan to others.“She really is a go getter, isn’t she?”“So much so that it even shocks me from time to time.”My partner is taunting me. But she is right! I should have been more forthright. I kept hiding things and it became weird.I should have told Chthulu that I had no plans whatsoever. She assumed that I had one since I answered her questions with silence.Silence doesn’t mean agreement but it becomes open ended. Chthulu always took my silence as my approval. It didn’t affect us much so I never bothered to make i

  • Not good with attention

    Stepping out of my own construct feels weird. How long has it been? That question feels redundant. Time has no meaning to beings like me anymore. No creator is bound by time. To us, it’s just a byproduct of creation.I noticed it when I stepped out but my construct really is in a weird place. There’s nothing else around it. I am isolated from all other constructs.I didn’t place my construct in any particularly remote place. I guess other creators and newer generation moved elsewhere.I should go to the nearest construct to ask for directions. Because of my isolation, my senses are not working. Even creators have senses. Mine are dull so let’s ask someone who knows.The first construct I find will be my neighbor too since it’s closest to mine. I don’t expect them to know me since I am not a memorable person nor have I made any public appearances in forever.If you ask me, how far is your neighbor from you? To put into perspective, imagine I live in a single house in the woods about a

    As a person, I was ordinary. I did not have any grandiose goals from my early childhood. I had a dream but it did not stick with me. I let go of illogical dreams and spent my days normally. I had a few friends. Even the thought of having friends gave me the chills. But I had some. We were together from our childhood and we became almost inseparable. They were like me. We were alike so we stuck together. My parents never really asked me to achieve greatness. They just told me to be a good person. I became just that. A good person till the very end. My friends were similar. We all went to the same school so from our childhood till our graduation from high school, we were together. When I think of those days, it always makes my heart flutter. It has been so long that I don't have a number. I did not keep count of the years passing by. My normal life, my ordinary days and my friends, everything changed. I remember what happened on that fateful day vividly. It was unforgettable. I

He is sitting beside me, swaying his legs back and forth.The high rise building is a nice place to brood over things. But it’s getting late so I should go home.

Then I will be intruding upon you.” (Joy)I teleport us back to my home. “Welcome home.” (Ariel)“I’m back, Ariel.
