I could still hear the sound of water rippling through the level when I came to. Everything is fuzzy. I sit up in a daze and attempt to make sense of my surroundings. Water. I'm still in the Poolrooms. How did I get here? Then I remember. I no clipped here. The wall had caved in and I ended up stuck wandering endless levels. Fable. Where's Fable? I look around the 'room' and then my eyes finally spot him. "Fable? What happened?"
"Hm? Oh. You're finally awake."
"My head hurts."
"I would imagine. After wandering into the dark like that, you are extremely lucky to not come down with some illness," he puts a hand around my shoulder. "Come on, we have to go."
Austen tapped his foot impatiently and grunted. "Finally..", he said.
Fable didn't respond. We were walking for some time and then everything went black. Again.
.......
Mom? Dad? No reply. Turn around.. They stood there. Just stood. Didn't say a word. Didn't move. Didn't even breathe. Everything around is black. Pitch black. There's no lighting. No doors. No nothing. Just the darkness. And me. And them. I reach out. They turn around. Their hair is in their face. They seem uneased. Upset. Mad. I take a step closer. Then they vanish. And I'm alone. Am I free? I feel like it. Nothing is holding me back anymore. It's just solitude. I take a deep breath. I turn around. The floor is shaking. Is everything falling? How? It's just a void of nothing..How can things close in on each other if there is nothing to close in on? There's a flash.
.........
I open my eyes. Water. I still hear the water. We are still in poolrooms. Fable is practically carrying me now. I stay silent to process what just occurred and then when I look up, we reached a wall. A wall with green tiles. Fable grips my sweater tighter and I notice Austen holding on to Fable's hand. I squeeze my eyes shut. I fell like I'm falling. I think things are spinning. Then when I reopen my eyes..Houses. There are houses on hills. Green hills. They look out of place. So out of place that it even appears to be creepy. "Fable..where are we?", I ask.
He tilts his head and answers, "Level 94.."
