Wrote it at school for a project. So I'd just post it. Enjoy.

It was dark. It’s really hard for you to try and remember. Your head hurts too much to try. You remember bits and pieces of a car, but that's it. All you really know is you laying in a hospital bed. You don’t even know who you are. You get out of the bed aching in pain. You try and stand up, but you’re really weak. The nurses try and help you up. You think to yourself, what am I doing here? They tell you its time to go. You get dressed in your clothes. All you have are pants, a shirt and a light jacket. You walk out and try to remember what happened to you and how you got here, who you are. Its around 9 o’clock PM, freezing cold. You walk out onto the cold city streets, unsure what to do. You step into a cafe, to try get some warmth. A TV is on, and you watch news of a person who died in a car crash, he slid and fell off a bridge. Poor fellow, you think to yourself. But it jolts your memory, you’re unsure why, but you remember a little bit of who you are. You have to get home. My family must be worried sick, you think to yourself. You run out of the cafe and think to yourself, how sad they must be.

As you walk up into your apartment. You get in, and knock on your door. You hear footsteps, but no one opens the door. You knock again and this time they open. It’s your wife. You try and hug her, but she screams, and yells at you. “Who are you?” she yells. “Get away from me!” she says and slams the door on you. What is going on? Why did she scream? You decide to leave, just in case something else happens. You try to convince yourself, maybe shes just stressed since you’ve been gone and needs some time alone. You’re not even sure how long you’ve been gone. So you decide to go to your best friends house, maybe he knows whats going on. You go to his house, hoping he knows what happened.
When you get to the door and knock he opens up. “Get out of here!” he yells and closes the door. What happened to him? Why is everyone acting like this? When you leave you don’t know what to do. You are alone, no one knows who you are. Its like you died. You sit down on a park bench, still confused about everything that's going on around you. You feel nauseous and dizzy. You see a distant shadow of a man appear, watching you. His eyes glow through the night. And then it goes black.

You wake up on the park bench, its still dark. You think to yourself, how long was I out and who was that watching me? Still dazed, something tells you to walk towards the bridge the man was killed on. You walk and walk, not sure why you’re doing this. You see caution signs all around and a busted up car. You think of the news you saw earlier.

Then it hits you. You were the one in the crash. You are dead. You flash back and remember the car crash, like you are reliving it. Your car was hit by a truck, slid off the road and off the bridge. You remember your head, bleeding and in pain. You feel everything that you felt then. You were dazed for a moment, your vision blurred and saw paramedics trying to get you out of the crushed car. You could hear your heart beat with a muffled sound, but a length stopped it. Then it went black. A freezing cold black. A horrifying chill went down your whole body. But then the feeling left, you felt nothing anymore. You were stone, stone dead. The shadow you saw earlier came again and said, “Its time to go.” A bright light shone through the darkness. However, you couldn’t go. You can’t go with it. “You can come or stay as a walking spirit, cursed to stay here forever.” You walk up to him. Its time to make a decision. What do you choose?
