The Host

The Host

Short_story · Singed

I’m going to die. Every halting breath is agony. It feels like someone has torn open my chest with a rusty saw and filled the cavity with teeth. Because someone has. He has. I can’t look at what he’s done to me. I stare through watering eyes at a tiny vault light in the brick ceiling, desperate to see anything but what I’ve become. Beyond lies Zaun —my city—but of the thousands of bustling souls there, not one will have noticed I’m missing. No one is looking for the man I was before.
