THE BEGINNING OF THE END // oc story (OUTDATED)

chapter 1

(this chapter starts out at a bit of a bad time sorry bout that)

Animen sighed, they knew they would die so they curled up into a ball and waited for their demise. The flames suffocated them like a snake would to crush the bones of its prey. Animen's skin slowly got burnt and started to become more of a gooey liquid texture. And then they closed their eyes and perished while the fire was still eating away at their corpse.

Bacon sat and watched as a former ' friend ' of his perished. Leamhan came running up to him asking many questions of how a fire just appeared, bacon couldn't exactly tell him that he himself caused the fire. Another reason he can't tell Leamhan is that he did it on purpose to dispose of Animen.

"Oh, it just appeared there must be a wildfire or something," bacon exclaimed. Leamhan looked suspiciously at him,

"are you sure, I'm pretty sure wildfires can't happen in cities we aren't even near any type of wildlife."

"I'm one hundred percent sure," bacon spoke, sweating uncontrollably. Leamhan squinted his eyes at bacon and then went to go call 911 to put out the fire.

A few hours later and the fire was finally gone, Leamhan investigated the burnt down building in case anyone was unfortunate enough to get stuck inside. He found Animen, at least of what's left of them, Leamhan's eyes filled with terror. He knew Animen himself in fact was also a friend of theirs. He dropped to his knees and stared down at the corpse of his friend Animen. His eyes filled with tears as he carried Animen's corpse out of the building.

By this point, bacon has already left and is now sitting in his living room watching 'Invader Jim'. Leamhan finally made it to bacon's house to tell him the terrible news. KNOCK. KNOCK.

"Coming!" bacon shouted and got up to go to the door. He opens the door to see Leamhan with tear stained eyes holding a burnt corpse.

"Wait, is that-" bacon was gonna ask but was cut off by the moth.

"Yes it is, I found them in the building where the fire happened," the moth started tearing up again just at the thought of it. Bacon comforted the moth the best he could without being too awkward because it was his fault for killing Animen.

"Well, uhm how about you come inside and have some tea," bacon said but Leamhan declined and said,

"What about Animen's corpse,"

"Uhm, just give them to me for now and we'll think about it later," bacon said, Leamhan sighed and looked down on the floor.

"Okay..." he said, Bacon nodded and took Animen out of Leamhan's grasp.

Bacon slowly walks out his house and quickly rushes to the back garden. He starts to desperately look for a spot to hide Animen's body. He spots an entrance to his basement and decides to hide Animen's corpse down there.

"Welp, that's solved, now time to get some pizza," Bacon said to himself and walked out the back garden but was stopped by the moth.

"What's solved,"  Leamhan asked, appearing behind bacon.

"Woah Leamhan! No need to sneak up on me like that," Bacon chuckled nervously.

"What are you hiding, bacon." Leamhan asked.

"What am I hiding? Pfft Well nothing of course," Bacon sweated anxiously trying to avoid eye contact with Leamhan. This made Leamhan growl, so he went to the entrance of the basement which was wide open and went inside. He accidentally stepped on something squishy. Leamhan looked below him and found Animen's corpse. A look of confusion then shortly betrayal appeared on Leamhan's face.

"why did you put them in your basement?" Leamhan asked and turned towards Bacon, who was right behind him.

"Uhhh... I-I was gonna put them somewhere else I just couldn't think at the time," bacon lied but this just made Leamhan more pissed. 

Leamhan then asked, "you were the one who caused the fire, weren't you?" Bacon didn't respond, he only stood there. Leamhan walked away in disappointment (idk how to do conflict between characters I'm very new at this) while carrying Animen's corpse and made his way to his house. Bacon was gonna stop him but he decided not to.
