A Better Place: The Island Of Dreams
"A criminal that the government had been searching for for a while was caught 2 days ago. He has done many unforgivable acts, including raping young women and girls, murder and burglary. He has committed suicide this morning in jail while awaiting his punishment. Police days that he must've been terrified of his punishment. He doesn't deserve such a peaceful ending, but what's done is done. This is WNN and we are telling you the latest news."
The woman who said this was on TV.
"What kind of f*cking bullsh*t is this?" a young woman says to herself. She has her brown sugar colored hair tied into a high ponytail, and is eating some yogurt. She is looking at the TV with her amber eyes, her face simply disgusted.
"Why am I watching this sh*t? Why am I even part of this damn society?"
She then makes a phone call.
"Hey, have you seen the news?" she asks, sounding pissed off, in fact, she IS pissed off.
"Well, good morning, Reyna. Yes, I did see that. I can't believe people fall for these lies. I mean, everyday a criminal 'commits suicide', how do people still believe it?" she hears the man she called say with a husky voice.
"I don't know. It's been ages, but they just won't wake up, damn it. I wanna burn everybody alive," she answers, calming down slightly.
"Anyway, I'm ready. How are things going at your end?" the man changes the subject, his voice sounding more serious.
Her expression also becomes determined.
"Not yet. It'll take a month or two, sorry," she responds, a bit apologetic.
"We've got to get this done asap, but I'd rather it be perfect, so no hurry," he reassures her.
"Anyway, how's it going with your girlfriend?" she smirks.
"..." he remains silent for some time, and then sighs: "It's going pretty well."
Reyna understands his words; nothing special was going on.
The corner of her lips slowly move upward.
They said some more irrelevant things before finally hanging up.
'Well, today's a Sunday, and I still have things to do. Sigh, let's get ready first.'
She goes to the bathroom to take a shower, and then puts some clothes on.
The jet black turtleneck she has was quite a match for her white pleegeds.
Her hair was beautifully done into a low ponytail, and she put her raven-colored Dr. Martens on. It looks amazing altogether, like a piece of art.
She looks at herself on the mirror and, satisfied, takes her bag and leaves.
She's walking in the streets, but not aimlessly, she knows exactly what she wants; a quiet place. A place filled with nature and peace.
She keeps walking until she sees a river. Its water is clear, and it's quite large; just the way she likes it. Unfortunately, many people are there.
Reyna dislikes people a little too much. Her face spells disgust, so she keeps walking besides that river.
After nearly a quarter of an hour, she finally sees no people.
'Ah, this is what I'm talking about. No humans, no demons, no ghosts; just me and nature.'
Then, while sitting down, she notices a piece of black cloth.
I take everything I said back, there's a gross human here. Tch, what a pain.
