as i walked up the stairs i heard people crying, shivering.

i got to the top.

he turned, pointing a gun at me. it was quite beautiful - - the gun.

it made me laugh. i turned my head away from the gun, looked at the people crying, shivering. some were calm. they were all looking at me. i looked again at the gun. grabbed it with both of my hands, in between my palms, put it on my forehead.
and with tears in my eyes i said calmly:
"do it, please. shoot me, please."

he didn't do it, of course. he just looked at me, amazed. made a step back, forcing the gun out of my hands.
"no."

i fell to the ground. on my back. my hands away from my body. my head tilted to the left, towards the people crying, shivering. a tear slowly started going from my left eye, past my ear, then it hit the ground.
"i can not die."

"i can not die."
"i made all this, you see. everything, the swans, the skies, the rains, the people - - the world."
"i am so lonely. so very - - lonely."

"i thought if i had thousands of years to find her, i would. but no. not once."
"generations passed. and many will."
"i will forever be alone."

mature content for a reason.
posted under fiction, for it would be too sad if it was true, and nobody wishes to believe that it could be true, anyhow.

based on true events.

Now, about this piece.
I liked the fact of him admiring the instrument of his death, it shows how much he wants to die so great is the regret, which i think is still the main feeling in these last three parts. The environment is good, the people crying, some admiring the whole thing, you can sense anxiety in the air provoked by the gun :)
The fact that he compares himself to god is also good. As I see it, his desire to die has been so futile and impossibly fulfilled that he sees himself as immortal; even his job is very risky and he's likely to be killed at any moment. But, then, you question the whole creation of the world thing - was it because god felt lonely? I liked the moment when you made me ponder that :)

I've been liking your story so far but now i'm gonna risk a punch in the mouth hehe the thing that has been through my mind during this reading is... where is this going? I mean, if I interpreted this right, he is dreaming right? But I think you should wake him up now and in an afflicted and incredibly confused way too. In my opinion this would be the perfect moment, to leave the reader to thinking about his last thought - "i will forever be alone." - this is the time where the feeling of regret and loneliness is heaviest. I think it would be a good transition. I'll let you think about that :)

This has been a great story, i'm looking forward to the next part! ;) good work and good luck!

i supppose the why has been edited out. bX, this is impressing. i doubt that you speak french but [link] is a book i'm working on and the various threads that will eventually interweave all capture the gravity and mystery that your declassified information series conveys... well done for this, and perhaps, take a look at the .doc ? :-) peace .

Well, I like it...very interisting and original.
I would suggest to take off the "WHY?" in the end, it's sounds despert and melodramatic, and i do like the bitter atmosphere better.
