He winced, the pain coming back in waves. he tried to remember what had happened to him and why he was in so much pain. he glanced around, slightly unnerved by the sudden realization that he was not alone in the room, a dark figure was leaning against the far wall, and on the opposite wall, a figure bathed in light. Alex went to stand but found that an unseen force was pushing him back down to the ground, rendering him at the judgement of the two unknown figures. He Lay there, waiting for them to decide to do something, and after just a moment, the figure bathed in light stepped forward, glowing white feathery wings coming into view. the figure crouched down next to the man so that he could hear him. "Hello, Alex. its nice to have you here."the sarcasm in the figure's tone was obvious."Did you have a nice flight?"
Alex, still laying on his back, answered in a tone that was equally as sarcastic
"Of course i did, Charlie. was it as much fun watching me as it was flying?"
The figure, Charlie, opted not to reply but stood up and walked back to his position on the wall. now the dark figure approached, bearing black, leathery wings that oozed the darkness around him.
"Mayhem. such a pleasure." Alex said with venom dripping from his words.
Mayhem said nothing, but stood up, and stepped back, then both Charlie and Mayhem vanished, sending the room to darkness.
Alex stood up, slowly at first but he eventually overcame the forces pushing him into the floor, and he walked to the side where the glowing figure had been standing, into the glowing door that appeared with his presence, the portal whisking him away.
