A lanky man walks alone down an empty street .
Everything was still , besides the random flicking of the street lights .
The man did not know his name , he forgot it a long time ago amongst years of torture that not even he could do to anyone , but besides that , he never found a name useful ,he never needed to introduce himself.
That of course changed when the man saw a crumpled up figure leaning on the metal fence by the street corner .
The man stopped and stood in front of the figure on the ground . the man was surprised to see the crippled figure was a cat?, man? , he didn't know but the thing on the ground looked human enough besides the cat ears and tail ,,.
He will deny that's the reason why he didn't leave it on the ground .
"Is that you God ?"
It spoke voice groggy from not being used .
"No ?"
It opened its eyes and looked up into the mans gray eyes . Its left eye was a pretty blue but the right was just an empty socket , the lids around it moved as if the eye was still there .
"Then who are you ? Am I dead ?"
The man crouched down to the figure to get a better look , it had freckles .
The ears on its head were a light brown , which matched the longish hair that framed its face and the tail which layed on the ground , the end flicking back and forth ever so slightly .
"I dont have a name , and if you're dead then I would be too ."
The man checked his own pulse , he could feel the steady beat of his life in his hand .
"Which I'm sure I'm alive so ."
It coughed up blood and smiled .
"Looks like those kids didn't do their job very well then God . "
The man helped it off the ground .
"I'm not God . "
" You don't have a name , and you're helping me , so you're
God now , not going back on that . "
God scoffs .
"Who said I'm helping you ? "
"I did "
It says grinning from ear to ear .
God held it as they started to walk .
"What's your name and what are you anyway ?"
"Never given' a name , and what I am ,,, I have no clue , I just came to be ,,, obviously people dont like that very much ."
God understood what he was saying .
"Fine then , you're Carol ."
"M'kay~"
Carol seemed totally content with that name , mostly because it wasn't directed at him in a rude or nasty gesture , and its good to finally be able to be addressed by something that wasn't a insult before a death threat .
Carol broke the momentary silence .
"Where are we going ?"
"A house . "
Carol raised a brow .
"Your house ?"
God shook his head .
"No , well I'm staying there alone , I guess , but it was just sitting there abandoned when I moved in , I'm not sure whose it was , before , so I guess its mine now , so yeah , my house . "
" you live in a abandoned house ?"
Carol was confused .
"not anymore now that I'm there I guess , but yeah ?"
God looked over to Carol , Who was honestly just innocently curious .
"If you live in a abandoned house , what do you do ? Do you even do anything for a living ?, dont ,like, people have jobs ?"
"I sell things ."
They stopped in front of a old house , far away from anyone . The house was small , only one story , vines grew up the walls covering the front door .
They walked around to the back door , which God opened with only some struggle .
"Sell what ?"
God paused in what used to be a small hallway , he looked down at Carol , his ears perked forward .
"I sell human organs . "
