Death
[deth]
Noun
1. The act of dying; The end of life; The total and permanent cessation of all vital functions of an organism.
Look it up. Death by any definition could be applied to Ember Wes on December 15th 2006. Her heart couldn't beat. Her brain couldn't think. Her lungs couldn't take in oxygen. Her body couldn't move. Dead. Despite all of this, on May 21st 2017, Ember's feet walked through Earths rich soil. Her hair flew in the wind. And the sweet air filled her lungs. Scientists had been secretly researching how to bring the dead to life. To most, it was a miracle. But to some, it was wrong. They believe dead should stay in Irkalla. And they are willing to do anything to make it so.

Keep in mind while reading this, I am aware there are grammatical errors, I am planning on editing it, I just want to get the book out before I can chicken out. Once I finish uploading all the chapters I will edit it.

Suhaib couldn't agree more with that statement, as he witnessed the horrific scene in front of him.

As the time had passed, he had realised that they were harmful, but never had a situation like this cross his mind; never had he thought that he would experience such a heart wrenching sight.

The clouds poured down their burdens, mourning along with him. He stared down at the horrific site. Her body was cold and lifeless, sprawled upon the floor, like a discarded piece of insignificant trash. His heart pounded wildly in his chest - the pain he experienced was so raw, he felt as if his very own heart had been torn out and trampled upon multiple times. He knew the image of her lifeless body and horrified face would forever be imprinted in his memory, and no matter how many years would pass, the pain would forever be embedded in his heart. He slumped down beside her cold body. Tears streaked his face, his vision blurred, his heart felt as if it was snatched out of his body; leaving him barren and hollow. He looked down upon her body that was stained in scarlet; her face had been mercilessly bruised and cut. The only girl he ever loved so dearly stared at him with lifeless, horror-struck eyes, drowning in a pool of her own blood.Complete
The Soul Collector's Oath
At twenty-three, Althea feels like the world has turned its back on her. Orphaned young and raised by her ailing grandmother, she carries the weight of rejection after rejection, each failed job application a reminder of her dwindling hope. All she wants is one chance - one reason to believe her persistence matters. But when an accident shatters her first day of work, Althea awakens in a realm beyond death. There, she is confronted by the God of Death himself, who reveals that her cries for help have been heard - not by fate, but by him. Faced with the horrifying truth of her own mangled body, Althea is given a choice: Accept judgment like every other soul, risking eternal punishment... Or swear an oath as a Soul Collector, a Grim Reaper tasked with guiding the dead to their final fate. Haunted, terrified, yet desperate to protect her grandmother and cling to life, Althea accepts the offer. Reborn into a double existence - one as an ordinary woman, the other as a reaper bound to death - she must navigate the weight of her new responsibility. But being chosen is not a blessing. Dark spirits lurk at the edges of her vision. The line between the living and the dead grows thin. And the oath she has taken binds her to secrets that could consume her soul. In a world where every choice tips the scale between life and death, Althea must learn that survival is no longer about finding a job - it's about keeping her humanity while serving the God of Death himself.

Give Life A Chance!
# Prologue Some moments shatter us so completely that we forget what it means to be whole. The accident took more than two lives that night-it took the version of Freen who believed in tomorrow, who laughed without hesitation, who saw possibility in every sunrise. In the aftermath, she became a ghost haunting her own existence, moving through days that felt borrowed and undeserved. The world continued spinning while she remained frozen in that terrible moment when everything changed. Friends offered comfort she couldn't accept, family spoke of healing she couldn't imagine, and time moved forward while she stayed trapped in the wreckage of before. She had convinced herself that surviving meant nothing more than breathing, that the guilt of living when they couldn't was punishment enough. The pieces of her former self lay scattered like debris after a storm, too sharp to touch, too broken to reassemble. Until Becky. Sometimes salvation comes disguised as an ordinary Tuesday, wearing a familiar smile and carrying an unexpected truth: that it's not only okay to live after tragedy-it's necessary. That honoring the dead doesn't require joining them in stillness, but rather in embracing the gift they no longer could. This is the story of learning to live again, of discovering that giving life a chance might be the most courageous thing we ever do. Give Life a Chance and It Might Surprise You! Adapted Fanfiction!!! Credit goes to the original author!Complete
