5 years after Antonio was trapped in his prison, he woke up in a huge pile rubble. He was back, finally, but definitely should be dead. He should've died of thirst, hunger, dried up, suffered muscle atrophy, and rotted away just like his emotions did 5 years ago. Instead, he got up to his feet and ran away from the wreck of a burning building. He was fully clothed in strange clothing. He was wearing what seemed to be some sort of armored suit with black spade symbols on his chest, back, thighs, feet, head, and hands. The rest of the suit was white. He looked at the symbols of spades on his gloves and realized that they were actually holes leading to his bare hands. When he tried taking off the gloves, he realized that his actual hands had those symbols, not just on his hands, but going through them.
Antonio didn't freak out, but he was curious about the spade shaped holes in his hands. They weren't holes you could just see through. Inside, the holes seemed unrealistic. The inside of his hands was not only bigger than the outside, but the inside of the holes looked exactly like the place he called "The End". The more he stared at them, the more he remembered about the place that he spent 5 years of his childhood waiting for either death or resurrection. He didn't know why they were there or how they got there. He decided to take off the annoying hooded mask he had on when a voice from the burning building screamed "Help!".
At first, he ignored the desperate cry for help. At that very moment, all of his emotions and feelings came back, except for pain and fear. The only person around seemed to be that one person who was crying for help. He rushed into the burning building with no fear. He sprinted up the stairs and was about get hit on the head by falling debris because he wasn't used to being this tall. He used to be 5'7'' tall. Now, Antonio was 6'2'' tall. He was still very confused about how he is still alive. He had many questions that may never be answered. For starters, why did he decide to risk his own life to save another during his first few moments he got out of his prison that he was held in for 5 years?
Antonio was up the stairs now and the person he is about to save is only a very long and dangerous jump away. Antonio wasn't sure if he could possibly make that jump. It seemed so far away and very risky. With the fire still spreading, Antonio must act quickly if he were to save someone's life. He has very little time to think. He decided to get a good running start and jump. At about mid-jump, Antonio is back in "The End". He thought he may have to stay there for another 5 years and end up in the middle of nowhere. He was trapped and had no idea what to do.
Antonio realized that unlike the 5 years he had spent in "The End", he felt normal. He was able to move freely, see himself, breathe, and he no longer felt pain. He was very confused again. This prison was now a place where he could just relax. The only problem was that he was just about to save someone's life. He tried as hard as he could to get out of there. Luckily, he did.
