Chapter || Meeting

The creature felt a wave of worry quickly rise in its stomach. It watched with a mixture of horror and shock. It reached out with a trembling hand, cupping its chin and tilting its head upwards so it could look at him. "H-Hey... Are you... Sick? A-Are you dying?" The creature asked in a trembling voice, its expression a stammering mix of worry.

He smiled warmly at the creature, who wore a shocked and worried expression. He was happy that finally someone was looking at him with a worried expression. "Haha... Don't worry, I won't last much longer. "Hurry and eat me." He said, smiling, his tearful eyes holding back tears.

The creature froze for a moment, all color draining from its face as it stared at him. It looked at him with wide eyes, filled with shock? Worry? Fear? It didn't know what it was feeling. But it scared it. It had never felt this way about a human before. "Why... Why should I eat you now? Y-You're sick... You're dying." The creature said in a trembling, fearful voice.

He chuckled as he saw the creature speaking in a trembling voice. "Don't worry, after you eat me, no one will look for me. It's better that way, than me lying dead and becoming a corpse haha..." He said, chuckling lightly like a fool laughing at his own death.

The creature's eyes widened further. Horror filled its gaze, along with a growing sense of fear. A low, trembling, and angry tone resonated in its voice as it spoke. The creature's tail wrapped around him tightly. Almost completely encircling him and squeezing him. Its grip was so tight. "D-Don't talk like that!!!! Stop!! Please.. Stop.. Y-You don't know what you're saying!!!. Just stop!!!" The creature said in a low tone that sounded trembling and angry.

He winced in pain as the creature tightened its coils. His body felt heavier and more painful. The pain that spread throughout his body, made him want to break even more. He smiled, with blood almost covering his weak body. The creature watched in horror, its eyes wide as blood began to flow from his mouth and body. The creature grabbed and pulled him. His weak body was pressed against the creature's chest, his own breath becoming heavy, as if he was facing the angel of death.

"God.. You're going to take me, right? And go home together to a more beautiful and peaceful place where you are..." He murmured in a small voice before finally closing his eyes. "No! No! No! You're sick! You're dying! I can't eat you! Please stop! Please... Stop!" The creature said, its voice starting to sound faint and getting further away. He smiled and fainted, his body already weak from the poison and blood loss.

The creature watched in horror as he fainted, his body limp in its arms, its mind racing. It didn't know what it was feeling. But it scared it. The creature hugged him tightly, its heart pounding in its chest and its breath coming in ragged gasps. "No!... No! No! No!! No!!!... Please! Wake up!! Don't you dare die in front of me!!" It said in a hoarse voice, its eyes tearing up as it watched the so fragile human close its eyes in front of it, with a body that was no longer helpless.
