I woke up to a dark and empty room. For some reason no one was in the room with me. I wondered where my Dad and Ben & Matt were. Maybe if was something important that happened after the battle. I pulled my legs from under the blankets that covered them and sat up in the bed I was in. I looked around, there was nothing here really. There was a sink and a mirror, but other than that I couldn’t see anything else. I walked over to the mirror and turned the light on by pulling the chain hanging from the mirror. The light just near blinded me. I looked over myself in the mirror after my eyes had adjusted. My skin on my face started to move. The skin under my eye started to twitch and move like something was underneath of it. Then the object made it’s way to my eye. I could see it as it swam in my eye. The next thing that I know is that I can’t move my arm up to swat away the bug that has crawled out of my eye socket and is now crawling into my ear.
My mind seems to go to sleep, numb even. I can still hear and feel everything, but it’s distant. Like I’m inside a shell and someone is ramming the outside. I can see as the image of the mirror fades as my body starts to fall down to the ground. I’m sort of happy for the numbness of this, but worried at the same time. Why am I so numb and why did I fall to the ground when I was just standing a moment ago?
