A New Life in a New Body

The Funeral

Five Years before... Mikes Funeral

Sherri

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; He's dead the funerals today I just hope he is in a better place. I contacted all of his friends and family surprisingly his family is all dead. He never mentioned it, you'd think he would have known and went to the funerals. I never saw any pictures of his family either.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; It is to be held in the towns finest graveyard. There is a clock tower and a bunch of trees I checked them all twice I don't see anything. The ceremony goes on for several hours we all say something about his life a person. Even his friends didn't know much about him. Hell only the closest actually show up everyone else is too busy or so they say.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; After it started I was crying, he is the only person I have ever truly felt close to. I gave him a twenty one gun salute after everyone else left. He deserved better all that was buried was just some of his personal possessions and a flag. That was what I did he dissevered a military funeral not a civilian one.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;I read a news paper today about a dead mafia member found in the clock tower. The attack sounded like it was Mike's handy work. Quick, quiet, and subtle it sounds just a little convenient but I think he was watching over me. I let my guard down yesterday I could have died, the guy had a sniper rifle.

"What are you thinking about," Mike asked.

"The funeral you had," I replied.

"I remember that," he responded.

"You do," I asked.

"Yes I remember it like yesterday," he replied.

Mike

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; It was a sunny day, during the summer, as well as a sad day. I had faked my own death and I intended to watch from a bench where it would look as if I was a bird watcher. I then saw a guy carrying a briefcase. He went into the clock tower, I deiced to follow him. I followed quietly behind him when I got up to where he was he was setting up a sniper rifle. I stalked up behind him and snapped his pretty little neck.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; I knew he intended to kill Sherri. &nbsp;I couldn't let that happen so after that I took up his sniper rifle and emptied it manually. I then looked through the scope in a prone position and watched the whole procession. I loved her too bad I couldn't let her know I was.

"So in a way I had went to my own funeral alive," I said simply.

"Why did you come to it," she asked.

"I felt I needed a family member there," I replied.

"So you went," she said.

"Enough of this I came here because I need to talk to the leaders," I said.

"Alright let's go," she said.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Hopefully this turns out all right.
