A/N: This was a random idea that took hold of me and refused to let go. Please keep in mind that this is a fantasy world and so I took a lot of liberty with the themes. I know the theme might not be everyone's cup of tea. So if this is something you're not comfortable with, don't read. I'll understand completely.

All chapters will be flash/drabbles. So each will be 100-500 words long; possibly seven chapters and an epilogue. Two updates daily until we hit the end. Enjoy!

Chapter-1: Prologue

Death.

Some call it an idea, some say it's a fantasy of an afterlife and to some people it's just another state of being.

Every day, in every moment, there's at least a few hundreds of people who think about death.

Some of them welcome it as a way of escaping the realities of life.

Some await it to be free of pain and hurt.

Some fear it as an unknown entity.

And then there are some who fight against it.

These people challenge death in order to be alive.

Sometimes, if they are really stubborn enough to not let go, death, itself, takes a step back from them.

These instances of interrupted death are few and far between; and this is one of those rare instances.

A/N: Dark themes are really not my style. But I'm loving the challenge of it. Share your thoughts with me and leave a review?

Thanks for reading.

Take care.
