A new tomorrow

I question myself how life reached that point? Looking around I can see my apartment, around everywhere there is something that should be cleaned, this place turned into deposit of trash.

Looking around I saw a paper, that is the bill for this month of my place, but how can I pay it in my situation?

I lost my job, because they always told me that I needed to give my best all the time, but for me all of this is just a method of slavery, I just can't accept how things are!

In the end, everything must be accepted in order to give you better results, it means I can't be myself for as long as I live, living as fake just to give everyone a smile, that's not something that I can accept that easily.

I lost everything in a small period of time and I only have this place to live for a little longer... So what should I do after that? I guess the answer is obvious... There is nothing left to me right now...

Opening a window and looking outside let me see how beautiful this view is as the last one I should see... Before everything I felt that I needed to blabber about something:

- My family died, My wife gone away... There is nothing left for me here!

- Are you sure? - Told me a voice behind of me. In that moment, even without realizing I was accepting it as the voice of my mind. - There is must something that was left behind.

- What should it be? Everything is gone!

- Did you try anything new in our life to change this aspect? - The voice continued to question me.

- No, there is nothing I should do anymore! I can't accept how things are... Why should I try?

- Can you make a proposition, then?

I turned back in the moment but heard that, and then there was a woman sitting into a chair with a cat in her hands, it was half black and half white, a perfect balance.

- Who the hell are you? No.... How did here in here?

- My name, you may ask? - she stopped for a moment and give me an answer. - You can call me Justice, I'm the balance between good and evil. Also, Do you see as a woman, correct?

I didn't understand in that second, but before even had a chance to answer, she continued:

- Don't need to answer that, I already know your answer, many humans see Justice as you are seeing now. I know you may be curious about me, but please answer my question... Can you hear my proposition for you life?

- What do you mean? I was... thinking in ending everything... So what you have to offer to a man like myself? - I was really in doubt if I trusted her or not, but I wasn't able to answer anything, except being sincere.

- Ok! You are broken, definitely. But your balance shall never be found in this place, this world doesn't suit you well, correct? Then I have to provide something that might help your feeling... Do you want to go to another world?

After that she stopped talking, waiting for an answer, but what should I do? That would be good, but it's even possible to do something like this? Also, where she came from? Everything seems to be locked... I don't understand, but I feel like it should be answered...

- You are right, everything is without balance! If you can, please show me this world you mentioned... I...

- Alright! - she started talking again, forcing me to stop. - I can give you this, but you need to grant me a wish. I promise to you that you'll not be alone in this journey. Can you grant my wish?

- If you believe that I'm able to do it... So I can try it!

She was looking into me, fitting her eyes and looking something in me. After my answer, she changed her face to a grin in her face, showing that something was definitely wrong there, I tried to do something, but I wasn't able to move. She got up and stared into my eyes...

- Then our contract is complete! I don't know your name, but it don't matter a thing. In the new world, your name will be Farkin... So hear my wish... No, you new porpoise in this world...

A wind came and everything became black all of a sudden, the last thing I could hear was her voice, as cruel as it would be:

- You are now part of the Legion... An group create for only one thing... DESTROY THE WORLD.
