I Want to Die, But I Am Immortal

Adam came to his house. But he moved very carefully inside his own home. He checked every room. He looked in every closet.

He did not see much there. The house was empty just as he had left it. Today was a very easy day. Too easy.

Adam did not understand how he could spend a whole day normally. A day without attacks. A day without death. This was almost impossible for Adam. It had never happened before.

Because ever since he found out about his parents' death Adam's day had never been normal. There had always been some attack on him.

There was always a threat lurking in the shadows. His life was a constant cycle of violence and survival.

Seeing this whole day pass so peacefully Adam felt a little strange. It was an unsettling quiet. He knew that danger was ahead. He could feel it in his bones. The calm was just a prelude to the storm.

But Adam did not know from which side the danger was coming. He had no clues. He had no leads. He was completely in the dark.

Adam was going towards the kitchen. He was thinking about making something to eat. A simple normal act.

Just then his doorbell rang. The sharp sound cut through the silence of the house. Adam was a little surprised.

He was not expecting anyone. He immediately took out the gun from his inventory.

Then his doorbell started ringing continuously and very fast. The sound was frantic and insistent. Seeing this Adam was very surprised. He thought whoever it is is very impatient. Adam did not understand who it could be.

Because if it was someone who wanted to kill him there were many ways to get into Adam's house. They could come from the back. There were other ways too. They would not announce themselves at the front door.

But seeing that he was ringing the bell at the front door Adam was a little sure that it must be someone Adam knew. It had to be.

Then Adam went from the other roof of his house. He was completely silent. He came out of his room from the second floor through the window.

He moved like a shadow along the edge of the roof. He looked at the main door of his house from the other side of the house.

He was very surprised. Because Monica was ringing the main bell of his house continuously. She was pressing the button over and over again.

Monica was saying to herself "I don't know how long he will take to open it."

Adam who was hiding behind the wall saw Monica. He was very surprised. He watched her for a moment his mind racing. Adam was very confused. Adam had met this girl only a short time ago. And now she knew his house too. How did she find out where he lived.

Seeing this Adam moved. He went behind Monica very fast. He was a blur of motion. He immediately put one hand around Monica's neck and squeezed her neck.

He pulled her back against him. With his other hand he put the gun he had on Monica's forehead. The cold metal pressed against her skin. He said in a low and dangerous voice "Who are you? What group are you related to?"

Hearing this Monica was very surprised at first. Her body went rigid with shock. She felt a pull on her neck from Adam's hands.

And second when she felt something on her forehead. She looked to the side. Her eyes widened. She was even more scared and surprised when she realized that there was a gun on her forehead. Pure terror washed over her.

Then she shouted. Her voice was high and panicked. "I didn't know you would react like this. I was just following you and I found out your house."

Then Adam tightened his hand again. He did not believe her. He started squeezing her neck more. He said in a hard voice "Which group sent you? Tell me quickly."

Then that girl Monica said "I don't know any group. I just wanted to joke with you." Her voice was muffled and strained.

When Adam heard this from that girl Monica's mouth he did not believe it at all. It sounded like a lie. A poorly constructed lie.

Then Monica suddenly started crying. Real tears streamed down her face. She said "I am telling the truth. I didn't know that you also carry a gun with you. I was following you because I liked you a lot. And there is no other reason. I promise."

Adam was very surprised to hear this. He looked at her. He saw the genuine fear and confusion in her eyes. He took his gun off Monica's forehead. The pressure was gone.

Then Monica started crying even more. She sobbed uncontrollably. She said "I am sorry. I will never follow you again. I promise."

Hearing this Adam thought that what Monica was saying was probably the truth. It was a strange truth but it felt real. He had made a mistake.

Then Adam loosened his hand. He released her completely. He stepped back and said "You don't need to follow me."

Monica was still facing the ground. Her back was towards Adam. She did not turn around. She just stood there trembling.

Adam let out a deep breath. He felt a strange mix of guilt and annoyance. He said "Now go from here. If I see you here again the consequences will not be good."

Hearing this Monica who was still looking at the ground started to turn around very slowly.

Her movements were hesitant. Adam understood from her body posture that she was very sacred. He had scared her badly.

He had hurt her. He watched as she slowly around.

As soon as Monica turned in front of Adam he was very surprised. Because Monica's face was not sad at all. It was not hurt.

Instead there was a smile. A wide smile. Seeing this Adam was very surprised. He did not understand.

Then Monica looked completely at Adam. She smiled and said "How did you like my acting?"

After hearing this he immediately fell to the ground. His legs just gave out. Because his legs had completely given up.

His body was not supporting him at all. It felt as if his body had become paralyzed in a way. He could not feel his limbs. He could not move.

Adam used all his strength. All his willpower. He tried to raise the gun and point it at Monica. His arm trembled with the effort. But then Monica raised her leg. It was a quick and precise movement. She kicked the gun out of Adam's hand. She kicked it far away.

Monica sat in front of Adam. She looked down at him with amusement.

She said "I thought, I was going to be killed today. But you are also a boy. And like all boys you also have a weakness. A girl's tears." Saying this Monica started laughing.

Adam's hands had completely given up. And he was lying on his face on the ground. He could only watch her.

Monica who was laughing stepped back.

Then three more men came from behind. They emerged from the outside. Adam saw that one of those men was carrying an unconscious Sophia in his arms.

Seeing this Adam was very surprised. A wave of pure terror and rage washed over him. He tried to speak.

He tried to scream her name. But his mouth was not moving either.

Then Monica smiled and said "What happened Adam are you surprised?"

Her voice was full of mock sympathy.

"I thought since you survived for so long you might be smart."

As Adam looked at Sophia's limp form and heard Monica's words he cursed himself.

He cursed his own stupidity. "I had a strange feeling about this girl this morning. I didn't feel right about her."

But Adam had ignored every alarm bell in his head. Because he didn't want to leave a normal life at all especially a normal life with Sophia.

He had wanted to believe she was just a normal girl. Then one of the three men stepped forward. He picked up Adam easily. He started taking him inside his own house.

And everyone else followed them inside Adam's house.

Adam's eyes were wide open. He could see everything. He saw the familiar walls of his home. But his body wasn't moving at all. It wasn't obeying his commands at all.

He was a prisoner in his own skin.

Then they took Adam and Sophia inside. They tied both of them to chairs facing each other in the living room.

Sophia was still unconscious her head hanging down.

Adam was fully conscious. But he couldn't even lift his neck. The drug whatever it was had complete control.

He couldn't even see Sophia sitting in front of him properly. His face was still forced towards the ground. He could hear the people present there talking.

Their voices were casual and relaxed. But he couldn't look at them. Then besides all those people another man came there. He walked into the room with a confident stride.

And he said "We had made many plans for you...."

"But this plan I made it especially for you Adam....Because I wanted to meet you in person...I didn't want to kill you right away."

After saying this Adam immediately recognized this voice. He had heard it on the communication device. And he knew exactly whose voice it was.

He said in his mind "Leader."

"This is the leader of The Ghost Group."

Then the leader of The Ghost Group who was Cyan stepped forward. And he grabbed Adam's hair. He lifted his face up with a rough jerk.

After which Adam could see the leader's face clearly for the first time. He was a 28-year-old boy.He had a handsome and friendly face. A face that could deceive anyone. Then Cyan smiled a charming and deadly smile.

He looked at Adam and said "Don't you want to know how we killed your parents?"

Hearing this Adam's eyes filled with a burning rage.
