My chest rose and fell with shaky breaths as I laid on cold stone ground. My head pounded with breath it took to keep myself alive.

"You're still alive?" Sleep chuckled from across the room. I nodded as I raised a bloody hand and letting it slap my back down to the ground with a thud. I cried out as the vine squeezed tighter around my ankle with its thorns feeling the blood trickling out of the wound.

"Please." I yelled suddenly. The vine lost its grip.

"You give up Vessel?" I nod.

"A verbal answer."

"I give up!" I yell as my spine felt a shock of pain run up and down.

"Rest."

But nothing isn't nothing because it describes something.
