*Plop*

A drop of watery fluid comes from above, shaking the whole surface of a certain void. 

What seems to be a neverending black void filled with scattered glints of rainbow colored freckles as it reaches wide out of my sightlines, there stands a mirror of two. 

And I unfortunately, am standing on top of it without knowing why.

*Swoosh*

'Ngh, Heck is this?'. I utter to myself as i cover my eyes from some kind of 'Wind' coming from my left. 

I hear some Indonesian words coming into my ears. "(faint) Get the Paramedics here, Quick!". A womanly voice that i recognize as our Squad Leader, Call-sign : Irsik, is pleading for help. 

I turn to where it came from, and I hear some guy trying his hardest on doing CPR to me as he is breathing mouth-to-mouth, punching my chest as to wake me up, which turns out to be our Demolition Specialist, Call-sign : Sierra. Also an Indonesian. "(faint) Oh, Heavens! Don't Leave Us, BUD!!"

Not seeing anything yet feeling everything, i creep towards where the sound comes. 

*TWANG!*

A flash of white light blinds my eyes as i cover my face. 'AGH, What in God's Name?' 

Seconds after, i peek a little and there floats what looks like a circle-shaped magical monitor of some sorts. 

There, two figures in spec-ops loadouts of black, guns and all that, is letting their lungs out as my dying body's point of view is facing upwards towards the rising sun.

I also hear faint police sirens and chatters of people, speculating on what is happening and why this is. 

*Ba-dump... bad-dum....*

'AGH?!'. I hold my chest as i feel my heart stings with it throbbing with pain of metallic sorts. 'Oh... I... Died...?' 

"(faint) LINAP!! Please Open Your Eyes, PLEASE!!". Sierra cries out his tears as he is helpless on what to do alongside Irsik who is comforting him.

They both plans to get married after this one mission, and though i'm about to die, at least i can die happy knowing that they'll remember me as someone to not be forgotten. 

Despite knowing that i can't really do anything from here my dying body moves on it's own as if the one who's standing here is seeing a fleeting memory from the past. "Engrave Me On Your- *Cough, Cough*, Souls.

And Never, *Gulps*, Forget Who You Are, Where We Came From". My past self is sending the one message i wanted to convey were i to be on my last breath. "And Please, Live The Way You Want To Live..."

They both clasp my hand with their own, as Irsik opens her mask and looks at my withering soul as she let tear drops on my face. "(faint) Yeah, *Sniffs, Yeah... We'll Try To..."

*Womanly screams*

I hear someone's screaming as if they just witnessed a person died i front of them for the first time. 

As the view is blurring out with blackness fading in, i feel my body that was cold to being warm again. 'Huh? Am i going to Hell or Heaven?' 

"(faint) Zenitsu! Ia-lib Bebye, 'Anbe To Llat-tuk!". A manly voice of an European origin is heard, what i presume to be the medic trying to get my consciousness back.

'Doesn't sound like English, though?' 

*Warps*

The monitor seems to fade away from my sight as the place i'm in starts to change sceneries. 

"(faint) Etto I-byah! Akku-nakku Tackke, Llat-tuk!". Yet another new womanly voice, the one who might be trying to assist the Medic who both just arrived. 

*bad-dum.... dum. . . *

As my heart freezes and decays with the passing time, my eyes starts to experience some kind of seizure, like waking up in a thick lush forest of a deserted island. 

*Womanly screams*

When i hear that voice again, the place starts to shifts as if dusts from above is crumbling down from some tectonic activity. 'Ah... This doesn't feel right. What's happening, really?'

"(faint) Etto I-byah! Takk-kass Uyokka! Dvini-Abyah!". The voice of the unknown woman speaks out with a rather delightful tone, even though my state is as harsh as it can be.

This begs the question of what is really happening to me. 'Is my mind saved on some drive in the near-future? I mean, except being reborn to start another life again, not much option for me to think about' 

"(faint) Dvini! Dvini Eni-atto Bebye, Zenitsu! Uk-aretsah!". And the one man who is supposed to bring me back goes alongside her tone too, only scratching my questioning mind further along. 

*Beams*

Now, with a ray of whites invading this place, what looks like a hole on the ground is now opening it's way for me to go. 

I did so, and is greeted by a feeling i'm longing for all these days : Familial Love.
