"I swear-"

Darkness, Complete darkness

Silence, not a word or a sound

What....happened?

The Lampent wondered to themselves, trying to get a baring of their surroundings, one moment they were talking with their friends and fighting the enemy, next thing they knew, agonizing pain had overwhelmed his body and his vision went dark.

"Hello? Jay? Pete?.. Derek???" They called out, worry starting to take over as their words echoed among the void, But nobody responded, absolutely nothing. The worried Lampent took a few steps forward, looking around for any signs of life until a bright light had appeared in front of them, engulfing the pokemon completely.

The light was blinding, taking almost forever to actually see anything, but now what was once total darkness was now a well-lit area. The entire area seemed to stretch out for miles, light fog was scattered along the ground, and everything else was basked in a very light gray. Joe quietly floated around, wondering where the hell he was, and where everyone was, was he in the box? He didn't remember being sent into it, maybe this was just some weird fever dream he was having.

That was until he saw a familiar figure, a Lopunny talking to a Cherrim that appeared to be in their sunny form, and horror washed over him. Slowly the Lampent approached, nervous to even say a word to them, but once he was close enough, Joe realized he was right, they were his dead friends, the ones who were in the Clay Massacre. "Mal? Gabi?" Joe muttered, in shock that he could see his dead friends, normally he could just speak with them, not able to actually see them, so this was shocking. The two paused from their conversation and turned to face Joe, both visibly surprised to see him there, and they were even more surprised to see how he looked.

"Joe? You're here! What happened to you?" Gabi exclaimed in shock, clearly happy but flabbergasted to see him. "Well, all I remember is darkness after feeling an overwhelming amount of pain" Joe recalled, trying his best to remember, although his entire memory had become extremely foggy with his last moments. The trio stood there as Joe tried to remember, until Mal finally broke the silence with a simple question, "How did you die, Joe?". The question completely caught him off guard, questioning why she would even ask that, "Die? I didn't die" Joe remarked, before muttering to himself "I... think".

Both Gabi and Mal quietly stared at the confused Joe and Mal carefully dug through her bag and pulled out a small mirror, facing it towards him, once Joe had finally noticed the mirror, he gasped at his own reflection. The entirety of his glass face from before had been completely shattered, he almost looked unrecognizable, so many questions clouded his head, why did this happen to me, and how?

"Did... I die?"

I'm so sorry it's so short-
