My eyes, wide from fear and anticipation, darted about the void, searching. He was here. He had to be. This was not like the first voice. I had to see him or I wouldn't believe it. I wouldn't believe he was here, alive.
I saw a speck in the distance and my eyes locked on it. A single glowing pinpoint, like a star. I started to move toward it, slowly at first, as if sneaking up on a kitten. It was still a star. I picked up my pace, jogging toward the dot. It seemed to be getting bigger, now the size of the end of a straw.
Screw it. I began to sprint at the little speck, puffing through my nose, out my mouth, keeping a steady pace.
I pushed harder. I had to see him. I had to prove it was in my head. It had to be him but it wasn't. It couldn't be. It wasn't. I was bolting at the orb now, with the spot of color growing larger and larger.
My soles were burning. I was running faster than humanly possible. There was no air to slow me down. The gravity was weak. I could leap ten feet in the air if I wanted. The physics of the common world could not keep me from confirming. Dead demons cannot, did not, come back to life.
I was approaching the speck, so I dug my heels into the nonexistent floor and skidded to a halt. I was right.What I saw wasn't Bill. Bill was a triangle. Bill was bright yellow. What I saw wasn't Bill. It was worse.
