Cyrus's POV:

September 6, 10:34pm:

Ayooooo, what's good John? (Yeahh, it's basic, but deal

How I managed to be on this side of Purgatory is beyond me. Yeah...I guess I calmed down a bit and trusted this being called God more. I guess yeah, I apologized for all the wrongdoings I did while sacrificing my life for someone. But still, that's all I needed to do to be forgiven and placed here? Oh well. I just missed my aunt...she has been there for me ever since mom died from Alcohol poisoning. She was a big drinker.

This place is pretty fun so far, but in a way, I feel restricted. For example, I wanted some chocolate frosted donuts, right? That was all, I swear! But my mentor, Kirk, kept saying no. Even though I have been on a strict diet for the remaining months of my life and that the donuts were allowed to be eaten. I see many people of all ages, having fun, praying and just relaxing with one another. Kirk never talks to me unless if it's about our schedule or scolding me for something. I never felt like I truly belonged here.

That's why I left.

I have been walking around aimlessly, by myself, for around two hours. I only ate a box of pizza and four donuts. So I'm starting to get a little hungry for a snack. But if it means that I can protect myself from being caught, then I can withhold from snacking a bit longer. Why don't you want to get caught? You may ask. Well, it's because I want to go back to the real world. I heard that there is a way, and that it's located in the dark side of Purgatory.

People have said to me that it is dangerous and not recommend. But they don't know that I live for danger. That I have been ever since I was left alone with my aunt. I'm bored so I guess I can give a little backstory. But I'm warning ya right now, it's not that interesting. At least...for me. Anyways, my name is Cyrus. I was born to two parents in the land of Amor. Yes, Yes, I know. My land is literally called Love. Very corny and it clearly shows how uncreative and lazy the founders were when naming this land. When I was four, my dad left us for someone else. Then two years later, my mom died and I was sent to live with my aunt Lucille in Camelot.

She's a maid for the kingdom. There were a few times where I would come and play with other children while she goes and does her thing. Aunty was someone who I could talk to and always get hugs from. In a way, she was like a mother. But a cool one. Which was slightly a mistake. In my opinion, people like her should be more of a parent. But that doesn't mean you can't have fun or act like a dickhead to your kids. Because she was a cool mom, I got away with everything.

If I called an old lady a fat bitch who will go to 'sleep' soon, my aunt would say nothing about it. If I said that I would run away and swim in a river with my clothes on, she wouldn't say a thing. However, if I was pissed off and said something like for an example, going to the king and not only get her fired but 'expose' that she wants to fuck him, then that is where she would put her foot down.

Believe it or not, I actually said that...and my ass got whooped as a result. I'm honestly glad to be gone from my mentor here and be on my own. Yeah, it took years, but I eventually did it. Hm...oops! I forgot to tell you about my death. It happened four years ago. Basically, there was this girl who I was cool with. She seemed really nice and we soon became friends. But those platonic feelings slowly turned into something romantic, at least on my end.

One day there was this group of men who were harassing her and acting really weird. I beat up dorks like them all the time and I saw that she was in trouble, so I tried to rescue her. I told them to leave her alone. While I was annoying them with my voice, the girl pulled away and stumbled backwards a bit. That was when one of the guys, who was the leader of the group, took out a knife. He said that if she doesn't give him all the money that was supposed to be paid to him or come with him to face 'punishment,' then she will die.

I was confused and I almost asked her about the money until it dawned on me...that money the girl had was MY money. You see, she usually makes up some sob story and pretends that she doesn't want the money, and.,,basically I fell into her trap. Anyways, I knew that she knew that I placed the pieces together. You know how when a romantic partner cheats on you and they're caught in the act, then they're like 'babe please! It's not what it looks like!' Well, that was exactly how the bitch acted.

Pfft, 'not what it looks like' my ass!

But man...I still had a heart.

Suddenly, the guy got off his bike and started towards the bitch. Immediately, without even thinking, I pushed her aside and got stabbed instead. He looked down at me with slightly widened eyes and said a half hearted 'oops, my bad.' I managed to get a glimpse of the girl and you would never guess of what she did.

You guys, she smiled. I honestly wasn't surprised, as she ran away all I could do is curse at myself and lay there as the guy and his men stabbed me over and over again through my entire body. But yeah, that's the story. Right now, I found a griffin looking animal just sitting there, sulking. I just said hi to him, yes it seems like it's a male, and he gave me a small smile. It seems like his name is Focalor, given that he kept on writing that name all over the dirt ground. He seems cool, so I will hang out with him....not.

How can I? Literally, I just heard a loud roar and a piercing girly scream in the background. Oh well, we'll see if I can update later. My nosey ass is...well, nosey.
