I was alive at one point, a healthy male who was good in school and was working my way to a good business. Then it happened. Out of nowhere.. BANG....gun shots were fired, I ran and bumped into a women who I grabbed and pulled her to a hiding spot. She was beautiful, stunning, almost goddess like and she was just as shocked as I was to why all this was happening..
We sat in fear hiding in a meat cooler waiting to see if everything is safe.. Until the door opened and two tall men with guns stood there right in front of us... I ran at one of them and took a bullet to the arm but I managed to get his gun and shoot him and his acquaintance.. Until I realized the sharp pain in my chest..I was shot, I looked over to see the beautiful women on the ground holding her stomach taking quick breathes and crying...
I stumbled my way to her almost feeling as I was about faint.. I started to lay beside her and wait for my time to pass as it was no use to find help.. She moved her arm slightly and started to lock her fingers with mine and hold my hand.. "T-thanks for t-trying. " she smiled slightly until she died right in front of me. Tears rolled down my eyes as I heard more gun fires and then all of a sudden.. everything was...black..
I was in a field and there was a creek in front of me, I was confused and scared..I ended up walking to the creek and decided to look into the blue water.. I was a fox. I walked back and forth till I couldn't, then I heard a call, almost sounded like a scream. I looked up from across the creek and saw something moving, it was another fox. I tried to say something but it came out as a yelp like the other fox, "Hey Over Here" said the other fox in a yelp but yet I could understand perfectly.
she was the girl from the shooting. I couldn't believe it, but I was happy she was okay.. She and I talked yelping back and forth talking about anything and everything. Then she asked me if I could come down to a place with her.. It was a large creek making it a semi long walk but i agreed to do so as long as I got to see her.
Me and her finally decided to meet up half way, and so we started walking before it started getting dark, I couldn't wait to see her..
∆∆∆20 minutes into walking∆∆
She was right there.. Just one hundred feet from my eyes, she and I just stood there staring at each other and we started to walk slowly to each other.. Then she collapsed.. Before she collapsed, I heard that same awful sound.. It was a gun shot.. She was shot by a hunter..
Believe me I don't know what was going through my mind but I ran to her as fast as I could and grabbed her neck with my teeth pulling her to a cave for safety. She looked at me- whimpering in pain we sat there for about ten minutes and then she put her paw on mine like she did in the past life.. She then died again... in front of me... again.. why wasn't it me..? Honestly why..? She just fucking got here AND SHE'S ALREADY FUCKING DEAD LIKE WHAT EVEN, SHE DESERVED TO BE HAPPY BUT THIS SHIT WORLD KEEPS TAKING IT LIKE IT WAS NOTHING.....why....?
I was furious, sad, pissed, I couldn't fucking process what happened until I saw what I saw.. lights from the sky came down and a hawk appeared in bright colors almost see through.. The hawk told me to not be sad.. The hawk told me that they were there to take her spirit and turn it into a star.. The hawk then proceeded to take her spirit out.. I saw her again, but she was blue and almost transparent.. She came up to me and told me to go on with life and smile.. Then.. She vanished.. Just like that.
I walked out of the cave and decided to live my life.. Now I look at the stars everyday and smile knowing she is now truly safe..

This whole thing has a basis around a religion i follow.
The hawk, the stars, recarnation, it is all based on a religion I follow and created.
This is probably one of my best stories in my opinion.
