It hits you; the deafening feeling of failure. It takes the breath from your lungs, and you plunge into an endless abyss, which no one can escape.

You struggle for air, looking for light. Nothing is there. You reach for someone, but no one is with you, you are alone. Darkness is slowly crawling around you, you cannot shake it off any longer, but it keeps clawing at you. It will not give up until you have.

Your body is paralyzed, you cannot move. All attempts made to act are useless, you can't do anything to save yourself. The darkness has already taken your freedom of movement.

You scream until you can't scream anymore. You fill the echoing abyss with your shrieks. No one heard you, and no one came to your call. However, someone was there. They were watching you, laughing at your attempts to survive.

Your cries for help soon died out, nothing left but a useless body falling for eternity. The darkness takes the body, engulfing it. The body is no one, and no one is there to scream or cry. No one is there to grab for nothing. The darkness has no one.

We repeat this cycle, over and over. This is how it will always go, and how it will always end. You cannot escape the horrible fate that awaits you. No one can safe you, and no one knows when it will be your time. All you have is you. No one else with you.

This will continue until there is no Earth left. Everyone will be completely gone, no life anywhere. The planet would be destroyed, and no life would thrive. The darkness would be the ruler, and no one would be able to stop it. There would be no one to protect what does not exist. Only darkness.

Only Silence.
