Death Won't Stop Me

Come on..

"Hahaha! That's it! Keep it up!" Eddie roared with laughter as he felt the energy of the orb he's currently absorbing.

This was the third orb he has gotten since the first one. He learned that the bigger the orb, the more energy he can absorb from. So he was starting to pick bigger orbs. 

As he was looking for bigger orbs, he saw one body near the stage. It's orb was as big as a baby's fist and the energy seething out of it was thicker in volume and bigger in quantity. Intrigued, he went to look at it first and tried to observe the orb up close. To his delight, an energy pressure was felt as soon as he got to ten feet of the body. And at two feet, he saw that the orb was about two shades lighter than the normal orbs he had seen so far.

"Hmm. Interesting."

"This orb is way different than the ones I have seen."

After a few moments of hesitation, he gritted his teeth and went for it. As per the first few orbs he had absorbed, he thrusted his hand as fast as he could thinking that his hand would be absorbed faster since its a very peculiar orb. "Hm?!" 

Unfortunately, everything went different than what he predicted. As his hand got a few inches from the body, he experienced a very strong suction force. It was way stronger than all the suction he had experienced so far combined. "What strong suction. I can't pull away."

"What the heck is this?! Come on! Pull away! Pull away! I don't wanna die like this. Please stop absorbing me, I'm sorry!" He was getting anxious as the suction wasn't stopping but instead it was getting stronger by the second. He felt like he was seeing his whole life flash before him a second time. A second time! 

"Am I really that unlucky? Do I really deserve to die? And die twice?!" Eddie wailed as he saw almost half of his body was already absorbed inside the body but the suction was still getting stronger.

"No, no, no! I don't wan-" With all his might, he tried to pull himself from this predicament but to no avail. He shouted from the top of his lungs as his head, the only part left that was not yet absorbed get sucked inside the body.

Eddie suddenly felt beads of sweat coming down from his forehead as he had his eyes closed. It felt like a very long time had passed and he was still not dead. All he thinks that he could see were darkness all around. "Hm?!" A bead of sweat that was coming down from his forehead dropped to his lips. As he tasted the saltiness of body sweat, it occurred to him that ever since he woke up from death, he hasn't felt any of the normal senses from a normal human body aside from sight and hearing. Then he felt it, air was brushing to his face and he felt a cool breeze from his face. Surprised, he opened his eyes and was shocked to see that he was sitting, on a chair and facing the stage of the stadium.

"Huh?" He wiped the sweat from his forehead as he pondered on what just happened when he saw his arm was wearing a black cloth that draped down to his face. Jolted, he backed his head a little and tried looking at the cloth. "I was not wearing this.. Was I?"

"Wait! My hands..?" Skin! I got skin! He was so shocked, he covered his face with his hands and felt skin on his face. "I'm alive?" He thought to himself.

"Are you okay?" A sweet, concerned sounding voice. Enough to melt your ears as you listened was suddenly head to his right side.

"What?" He asked automatically from hearing the question. He turned and he saw a very gorgeous woman dressed in a black toga with the traditional black graduation hat wit golden tassel draping to the right side of her face. She had an ash blonde hair flowing straight at her back, tucked behind her ears. Her long arched eyebrows framed her dark jade like eyes. She was wearing a light touch of make up to compliment her face. It was overwhelming enough just to see her concerned face, but when Eddie looked at her with his question, she smiled a little thinking to ease her seatmate. He was dazed for a while looking at the stunning smile and for a few breaths, Eddie forgot what was happening.

"Are you okay? You're sweating a lot. Is something wrong?" She asked again. But this time with Eddie staring at her, not answering as if stunned to silence and was just looking at her, she blushed feeling embarrassed and at the same time flattered at his reaction.

"Okay?" Eddie mumbled dumbly as he stared at her. Then suddenly some memories came flooding in his head as he "remembered" who this girl was. This was Jessica Richards. Campus crush, top beauty of the university, untouchable goddess to un common students. "Us?" He suddenly asked himself. "I've never seen this girl before have I?"

"Wait! This isn't my memory!" And another memory popped in his head. He was looking at himself at the mirror earlier as he was getting ready for his graduation today. "That's not my face! What is going on here?!"

"Did I possessed this body mistakenly?" He pondered a bit more to himself and then asked the girl sitting beside him. "Jessica, do you know me?"

"Yeah, Jon, we have been classmates for two whole semesters this year. Why would I not know you?" She immediately answered him with a frown slowly forming on her face. She felt aggrieved that a friend asked her that. One she even liked for a while now.

"No, sorry. I just suddenly don't feel right. Like I'm hallucinating or something." Eddie hurried to make up an excuse seeing her get upset with his question. He confirmed it just now, he possessed this kid! "Wow! I got powers now! I can possess people! This is great!" He was singing with tears of joy inside as he congratulated himself for being the greatest being in this world. His eyes suddenly lit up when he thought of something. "Then that means.."

"Ahem.. So, Jessica, what do you say we hang out somewhere fun after this thing?" He asked as he flashed a confident smile at the girl.

Surprised of being suddenly asked out, Jessica blushed more and fiddled with the strap of her handbag a little bit then bit her lower lip. Eddie felt a tingle from the little guy down under as he saw her reaction. "Damn! Dude! This chick is too gorgeous I wanna eat her whole! Why the heck haven't you made a move on this one?" He asked "himself" that question with a tinge of envy and lust oozing from his tone in his mind.

"Are you asking me out?" After a moment of hesitation Jessica decided to confirm "Jon" if he was really asking her out.

"Yeah, I realized just now how stupid could I be, why haven't I still asked you out yet? You're the prettiest girl I have ever known in my life, why have I not even tried to be with you yet?" Eddie's mind is running at full speed to spout all the honeyed words he could think of to spin this girl's mind. He's like a supercomputer that could spit out paragraphs on courting in just a few seconds.

Even he was amazed at how much his "skills" have evolved considering all he could get from that guide lady was a face full of slaps. He's like a completely new guy altogether. 

The girl blushed bright red like a ripe tomato at the compliments he's been spouting nonstop. She could only nod on his questions and giggle at his jokes. "Wow! Did I just tame this chick?!" He smugly thought to himself. "Well then.."

For almost the whole time he has been spouting nonsense with the girl beside giggling and nodding until it was about their turn to go up the stage. "Yes! After this nonsense I can finally make this yummy piece of work moan my name! Wait. No, I should say YOUR name. Hahaha.. You lucky bastard, you should thank the great ME for this chance I'm giving you. Hahaha!" He kept talking to "himself" as he stood up and went to the side of the stage following after Jessica. 

He was snickering all the way to the stage thinking of all the things he would do to this girl. "This day's just been getting better and better!" Suddenly, he felt an expelling force from his body. "Hm?" It was mild at first but then it started to grow stronger to the point that it started to hurt his whole body. "What the?! Is this guy fighting me? What is happening now??"

As he was getting near the stage he started to see his hand as he moved it, his soul's hand was left trailing behind from the body's hand. And then it was his feet! As he was walking, his soul's feet went out of the body in a walking motion and this time the body's feet trailed from his soul's feet's motion. If you could see him from afar, he looks like he was moving in slow motion where his hands and feet creating illusion of trails as it moved. "No, I still haven't tasted that girl yet! Don't fight you damn geek!" He shouted in his mind as he was getting anxious about being expelled out of "his" body.

As the expulsion grew very strong, he felt that he was barely hanging on from the body. "Damn it! At least let me touch that juicy ass.." He cried to himself when he knew he was at his limit. He willed the body's right hand trailing from his soul's hand reaching towards Jessica's right buttocks "Come on.."

His eyes lit up as he felt "his" hand touching her butt so he squeezed as tight as he could like there was no tomorrow savoring every second of it. He was very delighted that he had at the very least squeezed that plump butt. And at that instant, he shot out to the back of the body. He knew he was done, but when he was almost five feet from the body, he slammed on some kind of wall, so hard that he felt flat for a moment. He was dazed.

"Ahh!!!" A shrill scream jolted him out of his reverie as he looked and saw Jessica on the stage turning around and see her slap his "body" so hard he could feel how much it hurts just from seeing it.
