AM I DEAD? Chapter One: Where It All Started

Hello there! Today, I’m going to be providing you with live commentary on a man named Carl Williams. Now you might be wondering who I am. I am THE NARRATOR. I narrate everybody’s stories. I have knowledge of every person on Earth. Enough about me, let’s get to the commentary. Carl is driving back to his house right now, and he’s happy. His bakery, Sweet and Savory Treats(horrible name by the way), has been taking off with insane profits. The bakery is looking like it is going to become the main one of the area and make its biggest competitor, Best Bakes(why are these names so bad?!), obsolete. But Carl always has a fear. He had been indirectly threatened by the Best Bakes CEO, Aadam Che,(also a few bad names) several times. He had appointed a bodyguard just last week but he started to feel paranoid about whether he could trust him.


Right now, though, Carl is happy without any fears. He’s about to take the roundabout to his house now and...wait...IS THAT A SPEEDING TRUCK?! Carl starts panicking and the truck is getting closer. Carl’s driving faster and...CRASH! The truck crashed into his car and the car is doing flips all over the place! The car flips again and…it hits the ground upside down with heavy power! That was quite sudden. Oh, he’s getting up. That’s curious. He feels no pain at all! He’s covered in wounds and blood, how is he even moving? He’s running to the bakery. RUNNING! I expected this to be a normal day of narration! Anyway, he’s coming into the bakery right now, and he sees the entirety of his staff celebrating. That he’s dead. I have narrated psychopaths before but never have I seen something like this. Horrified Carl, who is also wondering if he’s a ghost now, goes right in to teach them a lesson.





He goes and taps one of the traitors celebrating his death. His bodyguard. The person turns around, now looks Carl directly in the eye, asks who just tapped him, and finally just turns back around. He’s realising that the person he just tapped didn’t even see him.

Now he asks “Am I dead?”.

“Well, if I look at these stats, he isn't dead, and he’s certainly not alive,” announces a traitor

He’s in the Middle.

“Hey, what’s that voice?”

Carl is asking. Is he talking about me?

“Hey who is that?”

Oh crap, he’s talking about me. He knows I’m here! Oh god, oh no, what do I do?!

“Hey!”

How did he not hear me for all this time but hear me now? Wait one second, I gotta talk to him.

“He-”

Alright, alright, you got me.

“Who are you?”

I am the narrator. I narrate people’s stories to others. You have the weirdest story I’ve seen in a while!

“Really?”

Yes.

“Well, can you tell me this?”

What?

“Am I dead?”

I already answered.

“I barely heard it.”

Well, you aren’t dead but you aren’t alive either-

“Don’t tell me I’m a gho-”

You’re not a ghost! You’re in this state called the Middle.

“So, I’m basically a ghost”

*Sigh*

“Ok how do I get out of this state?”

That, I will have to find out. But I feel like it would be a good idea to find out who did this to you.

“Yeah, it would.”

Ok, I have to reformat these conversations for the person listening real quick so it’s not confusing.

“Somebody is listening?!

It’s my job, I can’t do anything about it!

“Alright, fine.”


So, I have to completely reformat everything and use my extremely limited time travel skills to make this easier to listen to and look at. My charm and charisma might take a hike though, sadly. So, uh, see you in reformatted mode. Bye!
