Chapter 1: Rumors.If the soul decides to commit suicide and the body survives, the soul will alter, shapeshift, change into a force of anger and ignorance. The appearance will differ, reflecting on the soul itself. The suicide works… only to the degree of changing the person into a monster. People DO go to hell after commiting suicide.

05.01.2015. The first day of school after the winter vacation. Boys and girls from the Primary School of Yes Town are entering the school, many of them with sad faces. The building was still full of Christmas Trees and decoration which are being taken off, reminding of the holidays passing by. The 4th year students gathered at the 2nd floor in the halls and everyone has talking to each other until they opened the classroom’s doors. I arrived a little before that and as I did my best friend noticed me immediately.“Here he comes, here he comes.” He laughed jokingly “Hi Jimmy. How are you?”“Thanks. I’m great. How ‘bout you?”“Meh. Same as ever.”“Says the guy that is 14 today. Happy birthday Mitch.”“Thanks man, ‘preciate it. Oh, don’t forget, that the party will be this Saturday.”“Don’t worry, I won’t”As I said that, the teacher just arrived, opened the door and ordered the class to sit down on their seats. During that I tried to find a specific person, but I couldn’t. I sat on the middle desk on the 3rd row, and Mitch sat on my right. Then after the teacher started checking every how many students are missing. As normal most of the class was here. I didn’t paid that much attention until the teacher pointed me.“Jim Shelton?”“Here.” I said as I raised my hand “Pip Willburn?”“The Bear is here.”“You are no bear, Pip, just a stupid bully. Rupert Mayson?”“Here.”And so on and so forth. It wasn’t much interesting. That was until it was found out that a student was missing.“Serenity Horton?”Dead silence.“Serenity Horton? Does anybody knows where she is?!?”No one said anything directly to the teacher. However absolutely everyone started gossiping. From every side I heard “Serenity this, Serenity that.”“As I thought.” Said the teacher. ”That girl is behaving like a hooligan. That’s what happens when you have no parents to watch her. Now she’s at her home, watching TV, while you are here to learn. Don’t you hate her?”“What an ****!” I said quietly enough for Mitch to hear me.“Hey! Jim off? Don’t stress it that much! I know you have a crush on her and all, but….”“That’s not a reason for him to set the whole class against her!”“Either way, there is nothing you can do.”“ *sigh* Yeah you are right.”“Alright.” The teacher continued “Now let’s start with the class. Today we will learn about the lithospheric plates.”...During the lunch break I and Mitch went to the school food shop. While waiting on the line Mitch was counting coins in his hand.“Hey, can you rent me 30 ducats, so I can buy a Pizza.” Said Mitch.“Yeah, just gimme a sec.”While I search for the coins I heard the girls behind me gossiping again. It was for Serenity yet again. But they mentioned something about a… castle. I turned around and asked them.“What are you talking about??”“Oh, haven’t you heard yet?? Jenifer saw Serenity going to the Lunar Soul Castle with some kind of gun. It’s very strange.”“WHAT?!? Why?!?”“I have no idea. I heard that there are some nasty creatures trying to take over the world. Hahahahaha”She was clearly joking with me. I turned around and tried to forget all this. Still I started fearing that she might be in danger. My hands started shaking and my heartbeat went faster.“Hey Jim. The ducats.” Said Mitch.“Yeah, sorry. Here you are.” I said as I give them to him with shaking hands“Jim, buddy, are you alright??”“Yeah, I’m fine, just…”“Hey, don’t worry. Those are just rumors. Maybe she is just sick.”“Maybe. Let’s pass near her home. So we can check and…”“OK pal. We will check her home.”“Thanks man.”...After school we did as we said. We went near her house but it was dead silent.“What the hell?!? Why she is not here?”“I bet she went to the shop. Let’s just go home, Jim!”“Not yet.” I said “Let’s inspect closer!”I started to walk around her house filled with the sense of fear and paranoia. The backyard’s door was open and we entered it only to find a wooden plate placed vertically in the dirt like a gravestone. On the plate was written:Here lies:Evan O'NeillDied on: 15.01.2013Killed by the master of the castle.R.I.P. Dad. I will avenge you.Right in front of the plate was an opened gun case. When I saw those words and the case I started to tremble. That was enough evidence that she might be gone…. That she might really be in the castle. When Mitch saw it he was shocked. He hasn’t said anything. He knew I was worried as hell. I took up the case and right under it I found an opened letter. The letter says:“If you have found this letter that means I went missing and never came back. At this point I am most likely dead. Just know this. On 15th of January Newerth will be destroyed by the castle master. I will try to stop him. Just like my father. If you can, please try to stop him. Please.Your truly hated.Serenity05.01.2015”05.01.2015. That was TODAY. SHE WAS GONE. As I read I found myself fell on my knees crying for the girl I love. I felt like absolutely nobody and nothing mattered.“Let’s just go home Jim” said Mitch as he grabbed me by the armpits and help me stand up on my feet.He hold me by my shoulder on the way home. When we finally arrived he asked me to say something.“She can’t be dead. *hic* She must be fighting for her life. *hic*”“Jim, c’mon buddy stand up.”“I have.. *hip*…I have to save her!”“What are you talking about?!? You just can’t go and save her.”“But...*hic*…I have to!!”“Not in this state.”“Wha…”“Rest, sleep on it, get your mind together, and maybe IF she is still alive you can save her.”“You are right. *hic* Yeah, you’re right. But what if she die this night?!?”“Do not force yourself. If she dies you are likely to die too. You are weak now. As I said, sleep on it.”“Alright. I will.”“OK. Just rest.”The following night was the most horrible night I ever had. The dreams… I can’t describe them. One moment I dream of me and Serenity being a couple. The next I see flying syringes, pumping hearts, flying blob-like creatures, talking shadows and corpses…. Many corpses. One of those corpses… was mine!06.01.2015With the final image just appearing in my head I jumped from my bed to find out it was just a nightmare. I needed around 4 minutes to get my crap together and go to the bathroom. Right after that I dressed myself and started searching in my wardrobes. Right then the doorbell ringed.“I’m coming.”I opened the door and Mitch immediately got inside.“So are you better, since yesterday.”“Yeah… Most probably.”“OK. What are you going to do then.“As I just found the case I opened it and took out the revolver with the bullets. “I am going to save her.”To be continued.....
