Loved by Death [Tala of Darkness and Autumnal Dalliance]

[Watashi wa Hitori]

Cella Vargas

Cella gasped as she woke up on the white-tiled floor of the hospital. She stared up at the florescent lights above her with her widened blue eyes before sitting up. She was confused. Unaware of how she had even gotten to the hospital in the first place. The last thing Cella could remember was walking home from the grocery store, trying to keep herself warm from the coolness of the autumn breeze.

The girl pulled herself to her feet as she glanced over towards the hospital bed to see her own body laying there. An EKG read that she was still alive, but she was unresponsive. Cella gasped, taking a small step away from the bed.

"What... What in the world happened...?" she questioned in shock. Spotting the doctor enter the room, Cella rushed over towards him, "Doctor, please let me know if I'll be alright!" she pleaded.

Much to her dismay, as she attempted to grab onto his sleeve, he passed right through her. Cella could feel cold sweat rolling down the side of her face. She turned and watched the doctor check up on her body, laying helplessly in the hospital bed.

"What.. is going on? Am I... dead..?"

Cella Vargas

Cella whirled around, facing with the apparition of a man that held his hand out to her. She kept her hands closely at her chest as she stared into his milky white pupils. She wasn't sure of how to treat the man. He acted as though he were trying to help her out, but she wasn't she why.

"You are... Death?" she questioned curiously, almost in a nervous tone, "You aren't going to... try to kill me..? Take my soul away to... to be judged or something?"

She could feel herself beginning to panic. Tears welled up in her eyes as she shook her head, "I... I don't even know what happened... I was just walking home from the store... That's the last thing I remember... I shouldn't be going through this... N-Not at all..."
