Chapter 2 - knife, spoon and a Titan

Ren gets up from the floor and walks alone towards the kitchen table. No sound, no thought, just total curiosity.

raises the knife and says to himself

"One way to find out"

Without hesitation,he stabbed the knife into his chest

Suddenly, he falls to the ground like a dying horse Waiting for death

"IT BURNS ! IT'S PAINFUL!AHHHHHH!"

He says to himself as he crawls on the ground "fuck why did I thought that was a good idea "

He moves like a worm, turning all over on the floor of the apartment causing things to fall.

"Damn someone help me!"

He reaches for the front door to see his mother arriving home from work.

He whisper in a voice that is barely audible

"Mom.... I'm sorry"

His Vision goes blurry as he closes his eyes to the void. In the middle of that calm

He hears the sound of a jet engine roars in the back of his head that pierces through his ears...and suddenly the pain disappears.

He wakes up from the ground trying to comprehend what happened.

"What are you doing lying here?"

He looks up to see his mother.She looked at him with disappointment.

"Are you sure we're blood related? Maybe you were switched in the hospital."

He wants deep down tho tell her what happened to inform her that he was dying but he can't he knows she won't believe him

He checked his chest to see that the hole in it was healed.no but as it wasn't there to begin with

"But the knife!"

He looks to see the knife there as he left it.

"What?"

He continues to look at the blade he took and tried to take his own life with now resting on the wooden chopping block while now his fist is closing on another object entirely a silver spoon its surface reflecting the clear feelings of horror on his face

"Hey are you going to stay on ground for long?"

"Oh r.. right I'm sorry "

His mother moves him out of the way

"Haa haa Finally try to do something useful around the house huh?"

She takes the knife and expertly chops the rest of the onion

"Prepare your plate, dinner will be ready in 30 minute."

He stands up from the ground with trembling legs.

"Yes, mom "

So he goes to his room and closes the door behind him.

He pinch himself trying not to go to a break down

He lies down on the floor and looks at his room's dim lamp.

"Damn...what the hell happened today..I died three times? No, that wouldn't make sense, I was aware of this whole experience.I can't blame madness either because that wouldn't explain how I escaped the first death. "

Ren keeps staring at the spoon in front of him on the ground —Trying to understand what happened to him today

Get a pen and paper and write a Summary of everything that happened to him today

"Dream about a giant...

strange noise in my ear...

avoid death 3 times..

and it's seems that my pants They're not wet

anymore....

Conclusion:I absolutely have no Idea about anything that is going on "His voice brims with frustration and

disappointment as he tries to find solutions to his problem.

He closes his eyes and lies on the floor on his stomach.

He opens his eyes again to see his school uniform in front of him.He bites his lip

"There is one person who might help me....But "

He gets up from the floor and walks towards the door with slow steps... He goes to meet his mother

He finds her making dinner.

"Hey what do you want the dinner is not ready soooo"

I… I'm going back to school tomorrow," Ren said, barely above a whisper.

For a moment, silence.

Then—

Clatter!

The plate slipped from his mother's hands and shattered on the floor.

She froze. Turned slowly to look at him.

Her eyes widened, lips trembling—then a sudden, radiant smile spread across her face.

"You're serious?" she said, as if he'd just announced his engagement.

"Y-yeah."

"Thank God! I thought I'd lost you forever. I was already imagining you living in my basement at age thirty, gaming your life away!"

Without warning, she pulled him into a tight hug.

"Mom—ugh—get off me!"

She laughed like someone who just got the news of a wedding.

"I'm just happy, okay? You've been absent for a month! A whole damn month! I was running out of excuses to give your school."

"Still doesn't mean you can strangle me to death with love…"

"You want cake tonight?" she grinned, already returning to the stove.

Ren rolled his eyes, but deep down… he felt something shift.

Not warmth, not peace — but the faintest flicker of "maybe everything's not broken."

After dinner he lay in bed staring at the ceiling of his roomthinking about what the future holds for him

As he drifts off to sleep in sound of water dropping in there rusty pipes full the Quite night

He opens his eyes to find the night sky.

"Ohhhh another dream ok what Kaiju Fight I need to see this time "

He takes a step into the darkness, explosion

illuminating the place with purple lights.

"What the!!"

Before he can comprehend anything, he sees behind him.

"You shall l not seek any of our sucred divine incouters human"

Ren looks at the thing inu Front of him in disbelief

"What are you?"he says voice bearly above a whisper

"I'm what form everything came and everything will return I'm What your kind calls Legends "

The silence in the air is broken by a loud scream.

"I'm Titan of Return and your Contractors little thing "

Before Ren could prepare for the appearance in front of him, he saw a small rock the size of a water bottle cap heading towards him, hitting him in the chest

Causeing him to fall to the ground

He opens his eyes

He takes off the covers - goes to his desk and starts writing down everything he has seen in his dreams up to that moment.

It become obvious that those dreams were the reason he was having a those problems

But the pain in his chest stops him from moving further, so he stumbles until he falls to the ground.

"Ahh"

He takes off his shirt and presses on a certain point on his chest.

He feels like he's back in the world he was in for five minutes. Ago

"Back soo soon human?"

...Ren says to himself :I'm scared, I'm in pain... I want to run away from this thing, but... I can't.I need to get answers

"Actually yes I'm back....and have somethings to ask you "as he steps in for the thing Infront of him his body in the real world is asleep like a small child.
