" Its was a bright and sunny Wednesday in the big city, Mickey was walking happily while he was humming his classic tune, the reason of his happiness was because that day was his beloved girlfriend's birthday, Minnie. He bought a flower arrangement as a gift. He and Minnie had a tradition, it was that Mickey hid behind a bush near the street, and when Minnie was close, he jumped and surprised her with her gift. When he arrived to the bush, he hid in it and waited for Minnie to pass by, and when he was about to jump, Minnie just passed by the bush. Mickey, confused, came out of the bush and silently followed her towards a park, where a bigger mouse was waiting for her with a bigger flower arrangement. Minnie didn't take long to finally fall into his charms. Mickey, devastated for his girlfriend cheating on him, threw the flowers in a trash bin and went back home walking with a reflexife expression and his hands on his back. He had no one to support him, because a few weeks earlier, he suffered the loss of his friends: Pluto, Goofy and Donald in a car accident. When he arrived home, he grabbed a chair, a rope, he packed them on his car, he grabbed his car keys and drove towards the forest near the city's limits. After arriving to his destination, he left his car near the road, and walked deep into the forest's center. After getting in front of the tallest tree he could find, he grabbed the chair, hung up the rope to one of the tree's stick, and with his last thought on mind " I got no one to care for me anymore, so I don't think my suicide will matter to anyone " he took the decision to end it all, but when he was about to do so, a distant voice called his name:
-Mickey... the unknown voice said
Mickey, confused and curious, decided to follow the voice and, as he got deeper into the forest, the voice was nearer and nearer, and so, after walking a few minutes, he found the owner of the voice.
It was a broadcast TV laying in the floor, in the middle of nowhere.
-Who... are you? Mickey asked confused.
-My identity is no need to be known, but about you, why the long face Mouse?
-Oh, well, a lot has been happening in my life recently, and I have nothing to live for, so I don't think ending up with my life will bother anyone.
-It's okay Mouse, I can make you feel better, you just look at me closely.
Mickey, foolish, did as the TV said and got near to it's screen, and so, all of a sudden, extremely loud sounds and flashing lights appeared on the TV's screen, giving Mickey and epileptical attack and making him snap out of reality.
The truth was, that Mickey did suicide by hanging himself from that tree, there was never a TV, there was never an epileptical attack, all what there was, it was that Mouse's corpse hanging up in the middle of nowhere. A few hours passed and flies started to surround the hung corpse. Suddenly, black tears started to come out of Mickey's eyes like mini cascade and fell on the groung, slowly forming a black puddle. From it, a figure started to merge out of it, and when it finally came out, the surprise was big.
It was Mickey, but he was a distorted version of himself: he had a wide smile that showed his gums, his eyes, where 2 white ovals with no life nor pupils, he wore a long sleeve sweater with black and white horizontal lines, and the TV from his hallucination was attached to it's back with wiring.
Not much time passed so the cops reported him as " disappeared ", no matter how much they searched or looked, besides his car, there was no track of him. But despite of that, one thing remained clear, somewhere, deep in the forest, his corpse's still hanging, slowly rotting and eaten by parasites and bugs, and along with him, his spectral version, who named himself Mortimer, or better known as $u1c1d3 M0u$3. "
The end.
