1 Ch. 1 Goodness of Life

Life is nice don't you think, we don't cherish it, but when we are dying, our mind screams how much we want to live, even thinking that we would have lived a better life than we had before

Even I was the same, it's just that I did something I felt was worth giving life for...

------------------------

I was named Alex, just a normal teenager...and if you ask for a surname well I don't have it as I was left outside an orphanage when I was a child.

.

.

I can't say that I enjoyed my life but I didn't hate it, didn't had many friends because of no parents, often bullied but I would just beat the shit out of them when they cross the line, I liked watching anime and movies, seeing how the main character reach their goal even if everything was against them...it felt very satisfying.

I even had a girlfriend who just left me after knowing I was an orphan,

Well...haha

...even I am also laughing after thinking about it.

As for why all this bullshit, because I think my life is coming to the end

As for how then let me tell you,

One week just passed after my 18th birthday, and I was leaving for my new home, it was the rule of the orphanage that anyone that goes above the age of 18 will have to live outside and earn money on their own.

Workers from the orphanage had booked my train ticket, so I just had to go and sit on my seat till my destination comes.

But as I was searching for the seat I came across a coach in which many children were sitting silently, but I noticed some tears marks around their eyes.

Even though I was confused as to why they are all crying, I just moved forward leaving them,

Till a little boy who was sitting at the edge of the seat quickly caught my hand and started crying.

"sob Big Brother help us sob sob"

Click...

"Don't move"

"What the?"

I moved my head back only to see that two men standing there with a black mask on their face, one had a knife in his hand and the other was pointing his gun at me.

"You really have a bad luck today, coming in a hijacked coach, haha"

Said the man with the gun, even I was thinking of what bad deeds I did to be in this situation.

"Now put your hand up and stand at the side, go"

What a bad day

"Sorry," said the lady standing with me at the side of the coach as the guy with the knife keeps his eyes on us

The lady looked young, with the chubby and cute face, she had a name tag on her white shirt telling that she was the teacher of the children here,

But I also noticed that there were some tears on the side of her eyes

I asked her slowly

"So how this happened?"

"We were going on a school trip but as we came to this couch, these two men came and started to point gun on use even shooting bullets here and there to scare us, in fear children started to cry, somehow I manage to calm the children down, then when I tried to secretly call the police, they caught me and told me to stand here"

So their target are these children, this looks like a well-planned crime but why...

"Are you both enjoying it?"

After some time the man with the gun again came in front of us and asked with a smirk on his face

Come closer

"Tell something idiot"

Come closer

now!!

"You!!"

As he came beside me I moved quickly and caught the gun from his hand

Bang!!

Even though I caught the gun he didn't let the gun go and fired a shot that I barely dodged

The commotion started to occur in the coach as all the children started to cry and scream

Taking the chance I quickly move the gun toward the direction of the man with the knife

Seeing this the man with the knife also reacted and moved toward me with his knife pointed at me

"I will kill you, bastard"

"Ahaaaa"

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaa"

I moved from knife's direction but it still cut through my side of my shoulder but the gunman couldn't protect himself as the knife was stabbed in his chest

"I will kill you!!!"

Seeing that he was stabbed the gunman got angry and started fire more bullets but I moved the mussel toward the guy with the knife killing him without even giving him a chance to speak

"Jack nooo"

"All this happened because of you, bastard!!"

Seeing his partner die the gunman got even angry and kicked me in the chest throwing me back on the ground and pointed his gun at me

I tried to move but his aim was a me

"This ends here"

As he started to pull the trigger the lady jumped on him from the back

"I will kill you both!!"

Without giving him any chance I tried to catch the gun again but this time the gunman moved the gun to the other side, at the side of the children

"Hehe it will not work the second time, hehe"

With his creepy laugh, he started to pull the trigger of the gun which was pointed toward the children

NO NO NO NONONONO

My mind was screaming

At that time I don't know why but I felt that some type of power awakened in my body as I moved between the pointed gun and the children

Only to see the smirk on the gunman's face as he pulled the trigger,

"Bang, bang, bang, bang"

"Aa-aaaaaaaaa"

"hehe, how does dying feel? hehe"

My body was feeling heavy but with my remaining power I jumped on the gunman and caught the knife that was halfway through the heart and pushed it down

"If I am going to die, I will take you with me"

"Aaaaaaaaaaa"

.

.

-----------------------------

I was on the ground as drops of blood flowed out of my body

And seeing the children crying around me, I don't know what I am feeling

It can be relief or happiness I guess but it felt nice, thinking that someone will remember me after my dying

"Don't cry, I will be going to a better place"

" Whaaaaa big brother whaaa"

"become a good person in life and help other....o....k"

" Big brother, big brother wake-up big brother"

Slowly my vision turned dark, even the voice stopped as I felt that I was going into a long sleep

"Goodbye"

---------------------

'What is this place?'

I thought as I looked around, I was on a white bed in a big white room and there was nothing in the room except the bed and the door in front.

"My body is fine!!!"

I checked my body and got shocked as there was no blood on my clothes, I didn't even feel the pain.

After checking my body, I stood up from the bed and slowly walked toward the door, and opened it.

CREAK!

"Wow"

I was surprised as I walked outside and saw the semi-cloudy sky and the water-like ground that seem to extend to infinity.

I walked outside and felt the ground which was cold and was reflecting everything like a mirror, even though it felt like water but my bare feet didn't feel wet.

Every step I took formed a ripple on it, I walked some steps and started thinking

Where am I?

Is this a dream?...no it looks too real to be a dream

Then why am I here?

"You are awake"

A voice came from behind me, I quickly turned back again and saw a man standing there

White hair with shiny golden eyes and a handsome face. He was wearing a white suit as he walked towards me

"Who are you?" I asked.
