1 Well, Thats just my bad luck (1/2)

”Ahh, it's been so long since I felt the sun.”

Ferron lay on a park bench stretching his tense body as he hasn't had any exercise in the past few weeks as he sheltered inside his small apartment developing a thesis for his physics PHD. In his mind he always believed that when work was done as fast and correct as possible, nobody would nag him about doing it or getting it wrong. That way he could spend his time relaxing on his own and nobody would bother him, because there was nothing anyone could complain to him about.

”Now there's no other things to do, the Calculus professor doesn't have much for me, and the biophysics professor said there's a lecture this Thursday. So that leaves me with three days of absolute freedom.” Ferron chuckled as he stretched and took in a deep breath of fresh air. ”I'll do this for an hour or two then I'll head back to the apartment and embrace my lovely bed.” While Ferron had his mind filled with happy thoughts of his bed he didn't realize the figure creeping up to him from behind him.

”Excuse me, sir?”

A a soft, high-pitched and excited voice had woken Ferron from his small nap. He opened his eyes and saw quite a beautiful and gentle looking women standing there wearing a hospital gown and had her hands behind her back.

”Er, hello, can I help you?” Ferron responded to her while trying to figure out why such a beautiful and lovely women was talking to someone like him. Ferron didn't have much self-esteem due to his childhood mostly consisting of being bullied and neglected, so he didn't have any friends and lived on his own while working on small web designing jobs to support him. He didn't seem lazy when he was working but that was because he wanted to first have a lifestyle that wouldn't bother him if he was left alone for a few months. Truly a strange personality.

”I lost my cat could you help me find it” The strange women asked with a smile and for a second Ferron was lost in thought while he stared at the beautiful face

”Eh, uh, s-sure yea I can help.” While he was staring at her he replied while tripping over his words forgetting his common sense of wondering why this women was wearing a hospital gown and looking for her cat.

He stood up and turned around and was about to start walking, but stopped and realized the oddity about the situation. When suddenly an arm wrapped under his arm and over his chest, Ferron froze up and a warm breath brushed past his ear.

”You're such a cute boy, but you're a little to gullible don't you think? It seems you like to rest, well now you can rest forever, isn't that nice ”

The same soft and high-pitched voice he heard before appeared right beside his ear. Ferron couldn't move a muscle, he was scared stiff.

”What do I do?Who is this lady? I never touched a women before and shes touching me, ahh I now know what a touch of a women feels like. Wait what does she mean by rest forever?” Ferron had multiple thoughts flashing through his mind but it stopped on his last one.

A cold feeling appeared on his neck, now was the time for him to start panicking.

”Would you like to say hello to my old friend, his name is Zeus and hes my favorite partner, I have others but this one was left alone the longest. When I recovered him you were the closest person so I decided you were the best candidate.”

The soft voice spoke again and this time it had a different tone to it. The women behind Ferron this time did not look gentle as he first saw her. Standing behind a frozen Ferron was no longer a gentle looking girl but a girl that had a wide smile on her face and a psychotic look in her eyes holding a serrated flip knife to a young boys throat.

”Uh, can we talk this out please.” Ferron summoned up some courage to try and talk this women out of putting pressure on the knife.

”What possibly could we talk about? I haven't done this in so long, since I was trapped in that god forsaken place strapped to a bed with wires attached to my head. They said they were studying me, tell me how do they study a brain by sending excruciating pain to my head. Ha, they probably figured out that i'm gone now and are looking for me.”

She talked slowly taking her time and took her hand that was wrapped around Ferron and started caressing his chest and applied more pressure to the knife at his throat.

”Well, that enough playing around. I suspect they will be here soon so this is where I say goodbye to you and you can say goodbye to everything else. It was nice meeting you.”

”Wait what pl-” That was all Ferron could say before a piercing pain appeared on his throat and his vision blurred. When he placed his hands on his throat trying to stifle the immense pain he could feel some sort of liquid drenching hands as he held his throat. As his consciousness faded away he could hear sirens and people yelling.

”Ahh shit they found me.” Was the last thing he heard before everything faded to black

When he opened his eyes again he was shocked to see his own body and the girl that he met before surrounded by police but everything was frozen. Nothing was moving and everything was silent, and a dark mist slowly crept along the ground approaching Ferron.

Ferron was at a loss for words he was scared shitless before but now he was scared and creeped out.

”Who knew about the afterlife? Was this normal? Is that mist bad? What the hell is going on?” Ferron started muttering to himself.

When the mist was a few feet away from where Ferron was standing it stopped and started to take shape. It slowly rose and and formed into a human like shape, a few seconds later a black robed and hooded figure holding what looked a suitcase stepped out of it.

”Well, hello, uh, em give me a second.” The hooded figure talked with a voice befitting of an angel which suddenly calmed down a surprised Ferron. The hooded figure took a rolled up piece of paper out from under his robes and tossed it out in front of him, the paper stopped a few feet in front of him and unrolled, it was a few meters long and floated in front of him .

Ferron could hardly believe his eyes, a floating piece of paper, that was revolutionary! If he could bring this sort of technology to the world, he wouldn't even have to leave his house!

”Ah, you are Ferron, correct?” The hooded figure suddenly spoke giving Ferron a slight scare.

”Yes, th-that's me.” Ferron managed to squeeze out a few words.
