2 Chapter 2- Transported to Another World... For Just 24 Hours! Part 1

I look up, down, left, right, and every other direction possible. "Where am I?" I say aloud to whomever may be listening. How did I get here in the first place? "Lets see last thing I remember is..." My mind throws a blank; then remembers my suicide attempt. I look up to the sky, my face free of emotion, and close my eyes. "That's right I tried to kill myself but was too much of a coward to do it." I let out an exasperated sigh. I open my eyes and feel a couple tears streak down my face.

I'm still sitting in the vast field, with my new attire, and bathe in the sun. A couple minutes, or possibly hours, pass before I get up. I reach up to the sky and stand on my toes to stretch. My bones crack in relief. "Mmm...Ahh that feels good." Now back to the pressing matter. A quick smirk comes across my face. "Now I've seen enough anime to know what's happening." Now a big smile comes across my face. "I Have Been Transported to Another World!" I proclaim to the whole world.

My excitement settles a tad and another idea sets in. "Wait a second I don't recall anything after I attempted taking my life. So, what if I'm actually dreaming." I don't want it to be true. But the more I think about it the better, or in my case the worse, it sounds. "Is this one of those so-called lucid dreams? No, it cant be. Its the perfect scenario. The depressed unpopular guy who tries to take his life gets brought to another world, then becomes over powered, with all the girls he can imagine." My eyes start to get watery again. "Ha-ha its funny really, even in my own dream I'm pitiful. Maybe I'll just try to kill myself here since I couldn't in real life."

Don't think about that. This is your mind, so you can do whatever you want. Become the most powerful man alive and have a harem of beautiful girls. Or live a life of danger and adventure without any baggage. "You're right, thanks my internal thought." No problem. "Okay let's see since I'm in a dream lets try this." I stick my hand out and point to an overgrown tree and say, "Fire Blast!" Nothing. "Wow how anti-climactic." I sigh. "Well you're already depressed enough so lets try this instead." I stick my hand out and then imagine my energy flowing, through my arm, then to my hand and what the fire would feel like. "Fire Blast!" Still nothing. "I give up." I give one last pitiful sigh and plop back down on the grass and close my eyes.

Since I can't control my own dream, I guess I'll sleep my way into waking up. No more than thirty seconds pass when I hear a high-pitched scream in the far distance. My ears perk up. Another scream echoes through the field. I sit up. Again, another scream, this time with intelligible words. "Help, someone please help me!" It is now confirmed that it is a girl. I stand and look towards the direction of the cry for help. My jaw drops, and a smirk crosses my face once again. "No way, an actual damsel in distress. This is my chance. Thank you brain for giving this scenario before I must go back to my crappy life." I keep watching her get closer and can finally make her out with two guys following close behind her.

The girl has long golden-brown hair with a yellow dress which accentuated her curves and flowed to her ankle. I could tell from my distance that she has a nice that would make any guy ogle at her. The two guys behind her looked like any mediocre thug from an unoriginal anime. Which hopefully meant that they weren't that strong. They have on full black with a red bandanna on their head which looks like it has a symbol on it but is still too far to make out.

I keep an eye on the three of them and wait for my chance to move. "Now's my chance, Lets make the most of this." I get in a running stance and sprint off. Full speed, the wind is in my face and I can see them more and more clearly. Im no more than twenty feet away when out of nowhere comes two women out of the high grass. Im so startled I trip and fall on my face. As Im falling, I make split second eye contact with the girl. I know she notices me. "How embarrassing", I say as I fall on my face. I get my bearings and get back up but am shocked at what I see. I see the damsel in distress and the other two girls make their killing intent known for the two thugs. The girl that I thought was the damsel in distress is talking, yelling, at the two men. "Now lustful scums if you think you don't deserve death speak now or forever hold your peace!"

The thugs are on their knees shaking in fear and pleading for their lives. Behind them are the two girls that emerged out of the blue, from the tall grass. They each have a dagger up to both thugs necks and look like they could slit their throat at any time. I tense up and crouch down to avoid getting in the way. "I'll say one more time, what say you?" I can, somehow, feel her killing intent from my position, so I know that the thugs must be crapping their pants. The thug on the right speaks. "M-miss we meant no harm. R-really, we thought you were H-having fun when we were Ch-chasing you." He says with a chatter so fierce one might think his teeth would break. The left thug nodded in agreement as much as he could with a dagger to his neck.

"Oh, is that so well then my bad." She is so sarcastic that I know how this was going to end. I move a little closer through the tall grass to get a better view of the situation. Crunch. "Ah crap." I mumble to myself and pray that she didnt hear me. I look up and meet her longing gaze. I didn't realize, till now, that her eyes were an emerald green. "So gorgeous." I mouth without realizing. At that moment, from my perspective, I swear that I see a hint of red radiate from her cheeks.

She turns around so quickly, it's as if she never saw me. She looks dead eye at the thugs. "M-mam what do you mean by, 'my bad,'?" The thug on the right asks nervously. If my eyes aren't playing tricks, I believe I see a wet spot around his nether regions. The thug on the left speaks up. "Does that mean you'll let us go, now that you know that we where just playing an innocent game with you and had no bad intentions whatsoever." He was speaking so fast that he didn't take a pause for breath; and would have been considered a run-on sentence, in English class. The girl spoke again. "What are you pigs spouting about?" She is staring at them with an overwhelming intense stare and speaks again. "Let me elaborate on what I meant. Since you sorry excuses for men don't understand. I meant, my bad, by my bad I didn't kill scum like you earlier."

Both thugs start screaming for mercy. While pleading for their lives with suggestions like I beg of you, please, don't kill us we will become better men. And, If you spare our lives, we will become your obedient slaves. When the thugs said the latter, the two girls behind each thug, with daggers at their neck ready to kill, chuckled and then went back to being serious. They said a couple of more cries for their life to be spared. But in the end their cry was wasted breath. I could tell she has had enough of these two. "Silence!" She demands, and the thugs did as told. "I don't want to hear another word out of either of you. Especially from you, on the right. Any man who pisses himself in front of a lady, out of fear, deserves death."

The thug on the left looks over to his right in a look of shock. And the thug on the right starts crying out of fear and embarrassment. The girl looks to the tugs then to the girls behind them. She gives a nod so minute in nature that if I wasn't looking hard enough, I wouldn't have noticed it.

With the nod, without hesitation, the two girls behind the thugs slit their throat. They moved their daggers with such immense speed that the daggers left after images. The thugs had no time to react and died instantly. Blood splattered all over the grown, but none of it touched the girls. "Holy crap! I do not want to get on their bad side. Or be seen for that matter." Now that the event is over its starting to sink in how dire of a situation, Im in.

I watched the girls whisper amongst themselves; and I wasnt staying to ease drop in on what they were discussing. I turn the opposite way and start to army crawl my way out of here. I put one arm in front of the other and crawl as quietly as possibly. "What in the hell are you doing?" I was afraid of hearing this sweet terrifying voice. The voice of the girl who orchestrated the murder of the thugs without batting an eye. Even if the guys where evil and possibly deserved it, not to bat an eye, makes you exceptionally hardcore.

I look up and see her staring down at me. "Well get up its not very gentleman like to be below a beautiful lady." I couldnt deny the latter part, but Im still in shock and don't respond. "What are you deaf; get up." I could tell she was getting inpatient. I start to steady myself, when, a strong breeze blows through. At this moment my mind could think of only one thing; a pantie moment. Am I about to witness the most cliché moment in anime history?

The wind reached her beautiful dress and did not lift it an inch. I didnt realize, but I was staring at a certain area for too long, which caught her attention. "What are you ogling at?" She asks furiously. "Its not what it looks like, I swear." I state frantically. "Oh really? Because to me it looked an awful like you were hoping the wind was going to lift my dress, so you could see My...My...My?" She can't finish. Her face is now a bright rosy red and she is stuttering. "Like I said its not what it looks like..." She doesnt let me finish. "Ugh, filthy perverted men like you need to die!" This is what I was afraid of. "No really I didn't..." She kicks me hard enough that I go off the ground high enough that our eyes meet. She then jumps up and does a back-flip which ends with her foot in my face. I fly around five more feet and land on my back. "Urgh!" My breath goes out of me.

Everything hurts so much. Im having a hard time catching my breath too. "Damn I know this type of dreams are supposed to feel real, but this is overkill." In my whole existence I've never broken a bone. Even so, right now it feels like my ribs are broken. "Again, how the hell can I feel something Ive never felt before- Ow!" The pain is growing worse by the second. In a moment I am probably going to wake up anyway. I stay down in defeat and watch the girl walk over with the other two shortly behind.

She is at my broken body. "Well ladies it looks like we will be taking out another disgrace of a man." The girls behind her nod in agreement. "Since Im a proper lady, I'll ask you this one time, and one time only. Do you have any last words to say?" My body's in agonizing pain and I can't respond. "Well then, suit yourself." She turned to one of the other girls and grabbed a dagger. This must be the worst dream I have ever had. Whoever said you could control these darn things is a complete idiot.

She kneels to my face and grabs me by my shirt to bring me up to her eye level. I look at her as intently as she is, and still cant help to admire how beautiful she was, albeit a little apathetic and ego-centric. In this moment of admiration, a sharp pain goes through my head. "Urgh!"

"Don't worry your pain will cease in a moment." She sneered; I didnt pay much mind to the gesture. The pain is worsening, and I can see things; which Ive never seen before. I think their memories, but they're not mine. What the heck is going on? On top of the worst dream ever this must be the most intricate one too. As the pain increases, so do the memories. "Argh!" I wail in pain even more. "Girls do you think hes had enough pain for me to kill him?" I presume the girls nodded in affirmation because she starting to bring the dagger closer to my neck.

Just as shes about to slit my throat, I see a girl with beautiful golden-brown hair, bright emerald green eyes, and a dazzling smile. she is wearing, what appears to be a school uniform. We are walking up to the school gates together, which lead to a massive school looking castle. She says something that I cant fully comprehend, but I respond with, 'I'm coming Lilith.' "Lilith..." For some reason, through all the pain, I say this aloud. I also see the girl, about to kill me, drop her dagger and pull me in closer to her. "Why did you say that name!?" She says strained; with her voice cracking. I don't pay any mind to this. I can feel my consciousness leaving me and close my eyes. However, I have only one question before I awake from this atrocious dream; even if I don't get an answer. Who is Lilith?
