Keep Your Eyes Open

Chapter 3 - Lost

Recap:

I started to panic.

I could feel my hands rising upwards. Everything was in slow motion, as I began to close my eyes I could just about see Skylar shocked face running towards me with her hands reaching out ready to prance at me. I felt my eyes closing shut together. And then...

I blacked out.

Darkness, that's all I can see. Not just any old darkness. It's the type that makes you want to scream and run, the type that makes you feel as if someone or something is watching your every move. The type that makes your stomach twists its way up your throat, seizing your voice and thrusting it away into the ravenous darkness and the type that simply makes your blood boil. It's the place where all your nightmares took place.

That, is where I am right now.

No visible light. There's nothing at all. No way of finding out where I am. I do the only thing possible and force myself up on my feet however fail miserably. It's as if some sort of twisted person was pulling on my feet, gripping it down to the ground, stopping me from attempting to escape. Trapping me in this never ending darkness.

I contemplate on screaming but all I manage to let out was a small whimper. I take a deep breathe. Gaining my strength, I cautiously lift my feet once again, which feels like it weighs a ton and began to gingerly shuffle my way deeper into the darkness.

It felt like hours have passed but I knew that I've only been limping in this eternal darkness for a couple of minutes. Now my back feels like it's about to tear open allowing my shoulder blades to crumble down. My skull feels like It's on the verge of being wrenched open and my entire body is in absolute pain. I hate this. I dropped to my knees, my hands crossed firmly across my stomach, and my heavy breathing soon turned into rapid coughs. My hand slams hard on the ground and my face instantly scrunches up tightly.

"This has got to be a dream! This has got to be a dream, this has got to be a dream!" I whisper, trying to reassure myself, but my gut was telling me that this was more than just any old dream. I've been here before and I have wished and wished that I would never come back...or at least not so soon.
