How we got out
I'm not quite sure
It all became a blur
Of noise
And blood
She was like a feather in my arms
Weightless
Helpless
Her head lolling to the side as I ran
Whispers of blue hair trailing the once clean
Now stained floor
The gun fired in my hands
Dropping
One
Two
Three
Guards to the ground
I wasn't sure where to go
The noise and flashing lights disorienting me
A click
And the gun was out of bullets
I dropped it to the floor
Passing by a guard slumped on the floor
I grab a couple of grenades from his belt
I unclipped them and threw them as far as I could
Hoping we would get out in time
I gripped her tightly
And continued on
The last door
Grew closer and closer
But felt so far away
Pushing through
Bullets ricocheting off the wall behind me
I plunge
Head first
Into a world of white
And cold
I ran faster than I could have ever imagined
The wind stinging my face
Eyes
Hands
The explosions booming behind me
a blast of heat
following me
Into a dark forest
Where the trees loomed over me like strangers
Watching
Silent
I ran until I couldn't run anymore
My breaths excruciating
Behind me
There is nothing
But white
And trees
Cobalt is dead weight in my arms
Her skin as pale as this blank world
I want to stop
But I know
I can't
So I keep walking
Slowly
But surely
On towards the
Unknown
In my short time
Of living on earth
I have never been outside
And now
After all this time
I was finally
Free
