My New Life As A Crow

Chapter 0 - Prolouge

It was a good life.

I had seen many things in my little time, but I knew.

I lived a good life.

The fire burned around me, but I didn't feel hot.

I could hear my mother screaming, about what I didn't know.

I saw my father lying motionless in front of me, he was crushed underneath the roof when he pushed me out of the way.

How did things even come to this?

I had gotten a promotion not that long ago and I visited my family to celebrate. Then... my younger brother said he smelled something funny... I guess he must've smelled the gas leak.

Is he okay? He's only four, he's too young to die.

Is my mother going to be okay? I heard her earlier, but what if she's hurt?

What'll I do about my friends? They'll surely be devastated when they hear the news. I heard Alan and Nicole finally got engaged, I was going to be Alan's best man... And Katie... she just gave birth a week ago; I hadn't even got to see the baby.

Everything feels numb, I wonder why?

Is this what people feel when they die? Numb?

Am I going to die?

...

I hope I get reincarnated.

I read about those things from the novels Katie lent me. How nice it would be to fly and use magic.

Ah, I can feel my consciousness fading away.

Is this really it?

...In my next life, I hope to live life to the fullest.

I'll... definitely... fly......
