The Last Thing You Remember
A gunshot shatters your blissful state of slumber. Blood stains your sheets and crimson runs from the walls and ceiling, and you notice from the blurred vagueness that is your peripheral vision, a body slumped over the foot of your bed. Somebody has been murdered in your room.
Despite the early hour, and the shock of your discovery, you desperately muster the strength to search for the last place you put the phone; you have to call the police before it’s too late.
As you frantically search under cushions, beneath stacks of papers and old CD’s, you realize something is wrong. Suddenly, you feel weak, decrepit, frail, a frailness that brings on intense and unwanted dizziness. You clench your teeth as you search for the phone, but your pain continues lurch at your bones and nag at you. The pain becomes intense, and your vision blurs, and you keel over in pain onto the floor. You are immobile due to the raging and unknown pain clawing at your insides. Helpless.
You sense a living presence in your room now, your sheets rustling, and now footsteps. The debilitated corpse that once lay helpless on your bed, you realize is moving of it’s own volition. It is alive.
In your last moments of consciousness, your last breath of air, you manage to grasp at your stomach, and you feel torn skin, and then raw flesh. And then nothing. There is a gaping hole there.
These are the last things you remembered.

I bet a lot of people are going to be like ‘wat?’
and I think that is sort of the point of this pasta. You are presented with a very brief moment of consciousness and confusing and scary images during it. You die or go unconscious before you find out what is happening.
I like this pasta a lot.

Eh… I don’t get it. Was the corpse a zombie? Somebody the murderer killed earlier? The murderer himself?

Hey, third paragraph, is the keel suppose to be kneel?
September 7th, 2008 at 1:07 pm
keel is an actual word.. look it up
September 8th, 2008 at 9:00 am
I dunno… seemed really obvious from the start =/
September 8th, 2008 at 12:48 pm
Keel used as a verb means to fall, I believe. In example, “He keeled over, dead.”
That aside, this is actually quite terrifying. Imagine waking up to this, with no explanations before you are forced into nonexistence or your preferred conception of the afterlife.

what the crap does keel mean i don’t want to look it up

Welcome back WhoWasPhone.
I think the corpse was never a corpse. It was the murderer. However, because the victim (the narrator) had just been shot and they were in shock, not to mention rapidly losing blood, they were unable to realise this and assumed it was a body.
As sensation returned to their body and they started feeling the effects of their imminent death, they started to become more aware of their surroundings and of the “body” not actually being dead. Of course by that time it’s too late and the last thing they do as they die is realise that they’re the victim.
I like it. I kind of knew the narrator was the one who’d been shot from the first paragraph so it was creepy reading their steps to realising this themself.

I believe it’s a zombie.

October 12th, 2008 at 3:32 pm
maybe it’s one of those stories where the dead thing switches places with you.
like… it was a corpse, but then when you died, it came back to life.
i know it’s weak, but that’s what i thought.
October 26th, 2008 at 9:16 pm
