1 Chapter 1 - The clock ticked Midnight?
*****
A young man could be seen drinking in his bedroom alone while sitting on his bed, many empty bottles of other alcohol were littered around, The world around him seemed void of colour, his rooms, books, clothes, glasses of alcohol, a lotion bottle, his laptop, mouse and everything seemed devoid of any type of colour.
The young man seemed to be sobbing while drinking, A broken frame of him with a woman was on the floor, it was broken.
Suddenly Someone barges into the room and starts hitting the young man while laughing crazily. The person who entered seemed to be the woman in the broken frame.
"Now, Now babe, you should stop. We have to depose of that idiot without anyone knowing, if you kill him here, that'll spell trouble." A young man entered the room and tried to stop the young woman from killing the drunk man. however, the girl seemed to not even registered his presence. The young man sighed and kissed her.
"Have you regained your clarity?" The young man asked of the young woman while groping her and she nodded. It seemed like the people who entered the rooms were lovers but the drunk man and the young woman shared A marriage ring.
The woman was likely cheating on her husband and he found out and is currently drinking himself to his death.
The young man and the woman started making out in front of the drunk man but he didn't seem to care, his eyes held no clarity.
As soon as the two finished kissing, the young man spoke "Take him." and immediately 5 people rushed into the room and picked him up.

"Boss, this one has the fish eyes." A man wearing a mask spoke to the driver of the vehicle they were currently in, he seemed to have been hitting the drunk man while the others watched for entertainment but quickly lost focus after seeing no reaction from him.
"Shut the fuck up Bruno, If this mission fails, I swear I'll sell your daughter to a brothel." The driver conveyed in an irritated tone and the man proposed to be Bruno nodded his head and sat there in silence.
They seemed to have arrived at a seashore and all got off including the drunk man. They quickly led the drunk man to the edge from where they could easily throw him.
"Boss, The drug's nice, he hasn't regained clarity since a week ago." Another masked man spoke and the boss nodded and spoke "Let's quickly finish this and go fuck some new products." Everyone laughed as he spoke.
A Burbling sound momentarily encased the area as soon as the man was thrown into the sea. The man seemed to be drowning while the men were chatting around on the top and nobody seemed to care for him much.
"This will be covered up as suicide again?" Bruno spoke while having a grin on his face and everyone also laughed.
"What time is it? We have to get back before 1 am?" The boss asked one of his lackeys what time it was while informing the other half of them to get ready to leave.
"It's almost midnight boss, what a tiring day it has been." The lackey spoke while stretching out his arms in the air while everyone was chatting around.
"oh, shouldn't the drug's effect should start wearing out because of the water." someone spoke while taking a piss in the sea that the man was drowning in.
"Don't worry about it, he can't swim." The boss replied in an assuring tone.
--
'What is happening? where am I? Why can't I brea...' The drunk man's thoughts were broken into half when the memories of what happened caught up to him. he seemed to have despaired but tried to swim out, everyone thought he couldn't swim but he actually could. Just as he was about to reach the surface, something pulled him down.
As he looked down, he saw a huge rock attached to a rope that was attached to him which he failed to notice because of just waking up from the drug's effect.
'Shit fuck, what do I do? is this it? I didn't even get to enjoy my life.' The man thought, unbeknownst to him. The man had tears coming out of his eyes as they mixed in the sea.
The man tried pulling the rock, trying to cut the rope but in the end, his stamina gave out ( Maybe that's why she left him. ). He started losing his consciousness 'No, I'll die at this rate.' and those were the last thoughts the man had before his inevitable death, which had been foreseen many times. The clock struck midnight and nothing happened, the men who drowned him went on their merry way.

Somewhere on the other side of the story, A young woman was fighting against 8 men while protecting a young man from them.
"Young Master, quickly go from the back door that master prepared and escape from these scum." The young woman spoke to the young master who peed his pants.
"As if we would let you." An assassin shouted while throwing a knife toward the young master which the servant girl blocked with her body. "Please go, young master, everything will be fine." The girl said with a bright smile.
The young master was still in shock so he didn't run and stood in his place and a knife hit the servant's stomach.
"Don't die, Shui, please don't die." The young master started crying while holding on to the girl but the girl responded to him by saying "Please run mast..." The young girl protecting the young master died and the assassins started laughing.
"We should turn her into a living-dead slave because of all the trouble she caused us." Their leader spoke as he stabbed a hole in the young master's chest, the other assassin picked up the girl's body.
'Am I going to die like this? Is this it? It wasn't even a good life being born in a martial arts family as a cripple, I wish I had another chance.' The young master thought while bleeding to his inevitable death, Which had been foreseen many times. the man had tears rolling down his eyes.
He saw an old contraption of sorts which showed the time and it had just struck midnight as his eyes closed forever.
