Chapter 1 - the rapture

Have you ever wondered if life has any deep meaning? Because honestly, I haven't, even though I'm lying on the pavement, slowly bleeding to death because of idiots who started protesting for rights that I don't care about.

Damn, this hurts. I never thought I'd go down from a stray bullet. Ugh, hahaha, how ironic, me, an ex-soldier, dying from a stray bullet. Really very ironic, hahahahaha... No, I don't think this ends here, not like this. If death really wants me, it'll have to wait, because I'M NOT GOING TO DIE HERE! 

[The "Etiam di moriuntur" system has heard your wish and it has been accepted]

... What the hell was that, a hallucination? No, it felt too real. Aaggh, shit, my vision is blurring........

Aaahh, what the hell was that? I remember I was... Agh! Damn, my head hurts, but now I remember... Uff, they shot me, but I'm not dead, which is already strange, but even stranger is that voice that... Wait, the voice... Now that I remember, that voice said it was a system and that it was about to start a transmission. 

I can only assume that thing saved me, but nothing in this world is free, so it must want something. That's all I can assume from its actions. ggg. Being paranoid comes with being half Latino, I guess. Well, I think I've been lying on the floor for a long time. First, I have to see where I am. 

Right, up one, two... Ugh, damn, my body still hurts, but anyway, let's see where I am. From what I can see, it looks like I'm in some kind of cabin... Mmm, it looks more like a tavern or a bar, of course, if we ignore the desk in the middle of the room.

Anyway, all that's left is to see what's outside. From what I can see, it's already nighttime because it's dark outside the window...

I can't see anything. Wait... what the HELL 

are those? They're STARS!!!
