Chapter Text
We all deserve a second chance. It's just that some of us are not lucky enough to get one. For 18 year-old Rene however that's a different story. She got a second chance, only hers came with a twist.
After unexpectedly getting hit by a truck on her way to work and stumbling onto a crossroad. A path where she must choose between leaving everything and everyone she loves to move on to the next life or fight a coma for another chance in living the same life. To her both seem fallacious. But before she can make a choice, someone else does it for her.
And just like that everything changes.
Wandering souls follow her around. Shadow Spirits go to her seeking solace. And Phantom Souls the worst of them all, take their chances in stealing her soul. Add in some typical high school drama, a part time at a café, and some twisted family secrets and you get chaos.
But with the help of two very obnoxious twins, Rene will soon learn that people aren't always as they seem at first glance. Even her own friends.
To think it all happened after an accident.
Only it wasn't an accident.
======
It has been spoken
This deal cannot be broken
Understand what is said
Or you might just end up dead
Forever she will wait
For that is her fate
What memories will be lost
When the paths have crossed?
Two souls together for an eternity
To no end - an infinity
Be warned! To fall in love with another
Will doom your one true lover
Longer than never
But it can also be forever
Eternity will now start
"Till death do they part"
(Let's begin!)
I was walking down a dark and lonely misty path. With every step I took growing heavier than the other, almost as if I was being watched. And each time I had looked back over my shoulder to check, there would be nothing but darkness.
After walking for what seemed to be an eternity, I could just make out the shadow of a figure in the distance, their back turned to me.
Without thinking I run up to them, afraid that they would disappear. As soon as I had caught up to them, they - he turns to me.
My breath instantly hitching in my throat from shock. His face was a distorted image with a Cheshire's smile the only thing visible. His smile sent shivers down my spine and they were not the good kind.
"W-what?" I say, taking a step back.
Taking a step forward he cocks his head to the side. "There is no reason to be afraid. I will not harm you."
"Afraid?" I blink.
Afraid, I was everything but. Though I wasn't about to admit that to this stranger.
Stiffening my back, I raise my chin and look at him in defiance. "I am many things and afraid is not one of them."
'A liar would be one of them.' I internally roll my eyes at the thought.
He just laughs.
Laughs at my face as if I had just said the funniest thing ever known to this planet or wherever the heck I am.
Crossing my arms, I tap my foot impatiently waiting for him to finish.
"Glad to see that you haven't changed." He says, shaking his head. "You're still as feisty as I remembered."
"I'm sorry have we met?" I ask lifting an eyebrow. "Also am I dreaming?"
Wanna guess what he did this time? No? Okay. He decides to laugh at me again. If this keeps up, I should just be a comedian. I hope he chokes on oxygen. Sending him one of my withering glares, he shuts up.
But just as he was about to open his mouth, a light appears and everything starts to disappear.
He looks at me sadly and I can see his face more clearly now. He looks to be around his early twenties with dark almost jet-black hair and warm chocolate eyes. "Well looks like my time is up."
"Wait!" I shout but it's too late, everything is gone as the light disappears with him.
"Have fate." Voices say in unison. "Everything shall soon be revealed to you." Those were the last words I heard before I awoke.
