i feel like i'm burning, my skin is melting off, my face covered in sweat.

what's going on?

i look around me and all i see is a tall blurry figure in front of me and all i hear is silence.

above the figure is a large black sky with small shining stars. my eyes drift back and forth as i start to form constellations to take my mind off the burning sensation in my abdomen.

suddenly my ears start ringing and i begin to hear muffled talking. i look down from the stars above and my eyes fixate on the person in front of me.

it's jean. he still looks a bit blurry but i can see that he's upset and worried. he speaks words i can't understand and constantly changes his focus from me to our surroundings.

i suddenly feel a sharp pain and slowly lift my head, but when i do jean's eyes widen.

"y/n?" i hear him say franticly, "don't look. you'll be okay just lay down". before i follow his orders, my eyes shift to his hands, which are placed on my hip with blood covering his fingers and his palms.

"oh shit" i say under my breath before laying back down and breathing heavily. i wasn't aware that i was breathing differently before, but it feels as if i've just woken up from a dream.

"what's going on?" a masculine voice asks. i watch as the boy with the buzz cut swings over to us on a rooftop using his odm gear and approaches my body, "oh crap, that's not good man. hey, we need some help here!". connie calls out to the others but they seem to be occupied.

"i-" i start.

"no no no, don't talk. save your strength" jean says, "we'll just talk to you". his hands stay compressed against my hip as i feel more blood leave my body. him and connie continue to talk to me but my hearing starts to fade and my vision goes black once again.

am i... dying?
