Transmigrate Into A Merman In Apocalypse World

I look around me at the deserted land I am in, my head fell sideways making a lost expression

"where the hell am I?", I cry out loud

I want to file a complaint !!! I'm supposed to go back to the place where I left from, why was I teleported into nowhere?! maybe I shouldn't have left before the horror world sequence ended?

I shake my head to get rid of the disturbing thoughts, I can't lose hope besides didn't I get the item bird feather !! I can just fly, find someone and ask where I am !! even though I do not know the map, I can hire someone to lead the way, who will refuse a heaven-defying talisman, well it's not that defying still can they find something similar in this world!!?

"Should I open a shop ?", I say striking a thinking pose holding my chin

I activate the white feather on my hand by injecting some energy, the shining feather instantly floats behind me and inserts itself inside my back, wings skeletons bloomed then started wearing their flesh next it coats white feathers.

I look at the imposing size, the slim proportions of my elegant wings, I try moving them slowly wary they'll break down, the first flip was staggering, the second flip was lagging in the beginning, the third flip went smoothly, the fourth, the fifth and the rest moved instinctively just like the wings were originally part of my body.

I look above me into the slightly blue greyish sky, wave my wings energetically then fly up like a rocket, the white like swan wings spread over the arches ascends to the sky then sails off above the clouds delicately and elegantly.

I move freely and swiftly forward, my flying hair extending through the air, my skin caressed by the cold wind, the feeling mystical till a weird feeling struck me, I felt like I forgot something important.

"what could it be?", I rack my head restless but I still couldn't remember what I forgot, "since I can't remember then it can't help it, as long as it's not related to my life and death then leave it aside"

the wings are convenient but they cost a lot of energy to hold this form, so I had to go down from time to time, the journey went smoothly and found a trace of civilization, at last, a road, a concrete road !!! I just have to follow the road to meet someone!! lucky!!

so I fluttered above the road leaving a median distance between me and the ground.

in another place not far, a young man with curly brown hair was loading a blue truck with boxes

"Gu Changan!!! how long will you take to finish,it's just a few boxes goddammit!!!", an obese man gets his face out from the window and shouts

"one more box to go and we can go old Ma ", shouts the Gu Changan, only he shouts was not aggressive like the other but had the purpose to letting the old man hear.

after he lifted the last box, he sat with the boxes in the trunk of the truck, lays back on a box, and watch the sky reminiscently, thinking about his shit luck that bought him to this point, before the outbreak he was only a middle school student at school, he had a normal life, normal parents and friends, troubled with trivial teenage matters , "I need a girlfriend !!", "I didn't do well in the exam !!"etc

my regular life came to an end,i lost my dad and my little brother once the apocalypse broke, only i and my mom was lucky to survive, me for sneaking away from school and my mom for staying at home , we had to depend on each other to live through, we struggled till we finally got a place inside the shelter all thanks to my useless ability that was deemed 'can be used'

"air heater ", the sighs

his ability can heat up the air, just like how the ability sounds useless it had saved our lives by becoming a personal air conditioner for a famous team in the shelter, the team was ruthless nonetheless they paid me well, we could eat and drink and sleep inside walls, the glory did not last long and the team got attacked in a mission and died by human hands, for some reason I got lucky and they didn't kill me .

"tsk, if only they killed me ", he mumble

these groups of people are terrible !! everything bad has been done with them, kidnapping women and kids even animals were not spared, they ate human flesh and destroyed many small bases !!!

helping such people had made a tool on consciousness , but what can I do? no power and no courage , I can just treasure my life hoping to meet mom one day .

'sigh'

"life is ruthless", Gu Changan says then looks at the sky once again, a black dot appears on his sight scope getting closer, he focuses his eyes to make sure, frowning without realizing it .

"you don't say that's a monster!!!", he conjures after all who else can fly in the sky with that size if not a monster, right after he was about to call old Ma, his eyes captured clearly the figure coming towards them.

"an angel?", the word spilled out from his mouth as he looked at the dazzling figure with white long hair dancing in the air, beautiful face, and white waving wings behind him.

for a minute he couldn't take his eye away from him but the next moment he remembered something so he started signaling to the angel by waving his hands to leave.

rather than leaving the angels speeds towards him making him flustered, "why is he coming towards us!!",thinking of what happened to those women and pretty evolved humanoid creatures captured by this group, he didn't want him to get the same fate, such a pure and free angel will e a lost to destroy it .

realizing what he just thought, he felt that his thinking was crooked so swept the useless thought and concentrated on driving the angel away, looking around him he opened a box took some useless stuff and started throwing it at him to chase him away.
