Who
is Erik Plez?......A sketchy past, with no memories of his childhood,
at sixteen he was recruited for a secret team of Young Marines.
Now
he’s on the run, running out of lies, making it hard for him to
think of an alibi.
Excerpt
He
was tired. This was the first time he’d been able to lie down in
forty-eight hours. Of course it was a morgue but, that did not
matter. His body needed the rest. The steel slab he rested upon was
cold. Wait.... He could still feel... Didn’t that mean he was
still alive? The men who had found him said he had no heartbeat or
pulse. They’d called the sheriff and he’d been brought to the
morgue for an autopsy on Monday.
He
tried to move his left hand to see his watch. It wouldn’t move. He
tried to open his eyes. Nothing. He shook his head. His head still
moved? Maybe he was in a state of limbo and not truly dead, yet not
truly alive. He sniffed the air. It was pure oxygen. He breath in
deeply again. His hand moved. He took several more deep breaths. The
slab beneath him was getting even colder. The oxygen. It was bringing
him back to life. Slowly he began to focus on breathing. His life
was attached to the air.
Thank you for hosting me.
