I partly opened my eyes , cables all surrounding me one is under my nose the another thing is holding my left hand finger and that machine never stopped making that sound of ticking . at first I didn't know where I am the funny thing I thought that I'm in heaven from all the whiteness that I witnessed while I was fighting my way back to reality I heard a voice so familiar saying " he's back to conscious " after like five seconds a tall guy was holding some torch in his hand and trying to focus the light of it on each one of my eyes and he said " your friend is back congrats "and I thought after hearing that wait wait hold on what's going on did this mean I'm  hospitalize did that mean that I fall from the eage of the well and I broke my bones or I hit my head  on something of course  that made me lose conciousness , is that real ? Is that people real ? I mumbled oh my god and i felt like my heart is about pumping out from my chest the ticking started to increase and that tall guy backed again checking me and he's trying to tell the one that he said he was my friend to leave the room I'm in shock I felt a needle entering my skin one ....two....three I lost conscious once again . I don't know for how long I was a sleep . I woke up the first thing that I did is , I let my eyes adjust the light , you know that feeling of being so long in darkest place then the light hits you that exactly what I felt , I didn't want to be in the hospital and all of those cables surrounded me . I tried to put the oxygen a side and the cable that stuck in my hand I want to check my face and my head in the mirror . I standed there in front of  it and there's something strange , something different about me I don't know what it is exactly , I thought my eyes my pupil seems  extended although the place is very well lit no no there's something wrong with my Iris , it's more darker and enlarged somehow that my eyes seems from a distance full of black I made myself more closer to the mirror , my reflection smiled to me I was frozen in my position i thought that I still dreaming because there are a lot of things that I saw lately unbelievable to see in the real life so I wanted to make sure  that I'm not , I started hitting myself but my reflection started laughing at me each time i beat myself up and the laughter getting more and more tense I wanted to take a step back away but I couldn't because he or the same me spoke to me he said "why you're running away ? The only thing that came from my mouth is "who are you ?" With a hint of smile he answered 'I'm the you , you're guardian " wtf my guardian for sure this is a joke no one could believe this I wanted to laugh and I thought they have really good morphine at the hospital but a flash back of that paper and the chants that I wrote down and the images on that link so this is really true that website ....and I said "so you came to give me power that's right " he started to laugh again that's made feel scared I don't know why ,first of all I should be annoyed not scared and while ago I was about to start laughing here I am , he focus his gaze on me at that time I was trying to gather my courage to do not let my guards down but I couldn't this thing that called himself me is totally scary and if I related what I was in before finding myself in the hospital that  people that gathered around something are true after all ,I wished at that moment to really know the meaning of the chants and all the thoughts that circled at my mind was this not a good and I felt like something really bad is going to happen the silence after a big storm the tension in the room are things declaring that something  is going wrong he paused, he put that serious look on and he said " you made a contract " I was like " contract " with tumbled voice " with who ?!!" He closed his eyes and mumbled something it's like talking to someone invisible....and after that , the real show has begun for instant he extended his arms toward me and he took hold of me his grip is hard like iron that I felt like my arms bones about to be broken I started to scream "let go of me !! , what's going on " his face was inches way from mine in sudden move he opened his fucking damn eyes , they were all black and cracked from the sides like black veins running through his face his skin is so cold, so pale and his fingers tips were all muddy digging hard in my skin .he opened his mouth ugh his tongue was like snake that started licking my cheeks I was disgusted titled my head to the other  side to prevent him from do that as result his grip became more strong as he pulling me in toward it's like I'm pulled in way to enter the mirror the awful thing . he seems to be enjoying what his doing, it felt like I was his favorite food what a horrible thing to look at and then he whispered " I'm going to take you to a journey of your life time , I'm going to show you what you've put yourself into " I was hearing his words and my brain wanted to decode what's going on but my efforts seems useless , I already saw something in that well something beyond the normal world  and
This is conforming the things that I've seen and insuring they're just merely stupid things and still the real fucking one. I just entered another dimension in blink of an eye I was somewhere else some kind of rotten place the smell is weird I turned around to see all the sides that surrounded me , a very soft light coming from the end of a long tunnel i thought should i go over there ? Where do I go now ?  i was hesitating I turned around and I saw what's called himself my guardian standing behind me the only word that came from his monstrous mouth is "open your eyes " while I was distracted looking around for any clue to lead me to know the place that I'm in right now I heard a screaming coming from the end of the tunnel I took step back to run away however that thing was standing there blocking my way and he pointed a finger toward the place where the screaming came I looked and I was horrified , i asked myself should I go there once again and i saw the answer in my guardian face or whatever called himself with nodding , I walked toward the end where the light was coming soft each step I take seems heavy  I was walking like a cat scared to make a voice or anything that draws any attention to me at that moment and deep down of me I was terrified to see what I saw the last time what if that people wanted to take a revenge what if I was hunted down by them because to me they were abnormal and they could do anything above normal . Oh my god I was there in the end of what seems to be a subway  but there was a door half open and I could hear soft sobbing i tried to sneak a look but I felt like my guardian right behind me not only that but his hands around my shoulders he bent closer to my ear I should have felt his breathing but he seems like he doesn't!!! What kind of thing is he ? In that brief moment he said to me once again to open my eyes . I focus my intention on that room , I pushed slightly the door , the room is lighted by torches hanged on the both sides of the chamber not to forget the magnificent ornaments that decorate it . It looks like some old paint but it's not and it's very well done and I wondered if I'm in some kind sub museum because the   painting similar to the ones scratched on pyramids walls that described the old Egyptian lives "the pharaons" yes yes exactly it's the hieroglyphics suddenly there where a movement in the room accompanied with some crying and sobbing what's going on now !!!!! I kept a distance from the door I was truly scared there was someone standing in the middle and two people holding him down and three of them they were standing before someone else he was wearing a white cone like headdress with feathers and sitting on high and well dressed chair that man for moment he didn't say a word he just sitting there staring down to the other man that was held down by the others then he standed up and said "let's start the trial of the dead " the sobbing started to increase and all the he managed to say was "I was not ......I didn't...." the words  seems to be mixed with crying ,choked in his throat and in his air pipe . Another door has being opened inside the chamber all the eyes were focus on that door till that man with white cone spoke up again and said "enter " . A man with the head of a jackal yes the animal , unlike the real jackal his head all black holding in his hands a balance I thought what is the use of that thing in place like thia and I felt my guardian whispered in my ear with hashed voice "watchhhhh " I returned to that scene that was playing in front of me . As the man with the strange head had put the balance on a low table another one entered but this one is in the top rated people in weirdness his body was part lion , hippopotamus and crocodile face , If to think of it, this man is combined a three largest man eating animals . The two strangest man in that room were standing side by sides and one of them addressed the guy that was held down and told him to say the words . With a frail voice and full of the sadness he said " May I walk every day unceasing on the banks of my water, may my soul rest on the branches of the trees which I have planted, may I refresh myself in the shadow of my sycamore , take my soul and my heart , pour your well over me and lead me to the road of pureness dear lord " in a swift move that the eye is unable to copie with that man with the jackal heads entered his hand in the man chest , he just ripped out the man's heart and I could see from my distance that the heart still beating and the Contractions of the veins still , oh my god this is horrible I wanted to run away I had enough of this . I couldn't move the horrific moments take its toll on me I felt my tears fell down on my cheeks and I kept watching till that jackal guy placed the heart on the skall side and he put ma'at feather on the other side he's trying to weight the heart this is nonsense but The man shrieked and fell like a dull on his side . The heart was heavy that was obvious how could he think that a feather could lift a heart that a sounded ridiculous to me but to them it was important somehow as a result of the heaviness of the man's heart that jackal headed threw the man's part on the floor to the other multi animal bodyman and of course he knows his duty he ate it without hesitation , he just devoured the heart of that man . I was paralyzed , horrified and Shocked I was unable to think the scene was beyond imagination who could've thought that can be true . the only thing that my mind concluded "is that my fate to be devoured by some kind of weirdo
cannibals ?" . To be continued
