Newborn In The Dark Streets

The sky collided as I disappeared into a the endless white void.

I saw a girl with wings like an angel, and hair like a gold waterfall that reaches the Void's end.

She stood silently staring at me.

"...Clay!"

She said, as she healed the wounds within my heart.

"Who was she?"

"I can't...remember!"

Slowly, I felt a tugging force in my gut as the void around me seemed to collapse.

"Did I die?"

"Ah...So, That's what happened!"

I remember now.

''I was admitted in the Hospital!"

"Hmm, It seems that I have died!"

"You know, Aging really sucks!"

Ah...My stomach hurt....no, its More like I'm getting hungry.

I waited without any idea.

Just after a few seconds, the feeling was completely gone, and I was contempt for some reason.

"What happened?"

I can't understand what's happening to me.

...

It felt like an eternity of sleep transportation.

Long after that, I felt some kind of droplet falling in to my eyes.

"Is it a water droplet?"

"It seems I can move now!"

So, gently as I opened my eyes and raise my torso, I was able to finally re-orient myself and get a better understanding of my surroundings.

"Where....am I?"

"And How am I still alive?"

"Didn't I just die in the hospital?"

The surrounding area resembled a street.

So, what should I do? I believe I have been reborn. I suppose I should go along with it.

"Wow, wow, wow!" My stomach hurt again.

Ah, I couldn't help but my Weak cries reverberated in the narrow streets.

A woman cradled me in her arms and used a nearly torn quilt as a blanket to keep the cold wind from blowing through the pathways.

The surroundings were dim, as if it were twilight with a gloomy atmosphere.

"Wow, wow, wow!"

I was just...suffocating with my stomach ache, and I tried to make a sound to signal that to the woman I thought was my mother, but all I could do was cry.

It appears that I was born and have only been in this world for a few days, yes, just a few days. more likely...three days old. But I was already experiencing a strong negative emotion.

As a former assassin whose assassination skills and knowledge were unrivalled, and whose reputation terrified the entire underworld, I lost track of time in my job and not thinking about my age. In any case, I should start from scratch in this life.

No matter how strong I used to be, now I'm just a baby. It can't change my fragile and baby body.

In my previous life, I had no parents or family, but looking at my new mother now, it is clear that she is malnourished and frail. I'm not sure what happened, but she must have suffered for a long time, and with my rebirth, I became severely malnourished.

It appears that if things continue as they are, me and my mother could die at any time.

However, it's amazing how this body held my soul and awakened me in just three days...or I guess that how it should've been.

Well, I will survive. I'll go ahead with it.
