Darkness.

Without light there is darkness. Like at night, when the sun is no longer in sight there is darkness. The only thing giving us a little light is the glowing moon. It glows in the night sky, not letting the darkness truly take over, not letting us be swallowed by it. But what if the moon was to disappear? Darkness. Complete and utter darkness.

All hope would be gone along with the light. Fear would rise up from the unknown dark, making you tremble and panic. Not a single ray of light would guide your way through the darkness. The darkness eats you away slowly gaining all your hope. If you let it.

That darkness also exists in people. People like that will hurt you, not caring about what you feel. They will take away everything you hold dear and everything you believe in. But you can't let that happen. You can't let them take that. You must be strong and fight for yourself. You mustn't lose hope, cause that is the last thing that can be taken from you. The last thing worth fighting for, because when that's gone, then there's nothing left anymore. Nothing.

Clara's POV:

Darkness. That's all I could see, darkness. I could feel myself drifting in my sleep, not seeing a speck of colour or light. It was too quiet and too dark, slowly I could feel fear of staying like this forever. Was death like this? Was I dead?

If there was one thing I was scared of it was death. The pain of when you die and what comes after. Hell? Heaven? Internal darkness? Nothing? I was already freaking out and if I was conscious I would probably lose unconsciousness.

I heard somebodys voice in the back of my head. I couldn't understand what the voice was saying but I could feel it's sadness towards something, or maybe somebody. Me? No.

The darkness was now already too much. I didn't know how long I had been there, in the darkness, but I did know that it couldn't be less than an hour. Where was I exactly? In the in between maybe? Possible. In a dreamless sleep? Definitely not, cause I could hear, think and feel clearly. But in a sleepless dream it would just be less than a second of darkness and than your already up. So, no. A coma? Practically the same as a dreamless sleep. Does this place even exist in words?

No matter what this place is I have to get out. I must leave this abandoned building with Mike. We must escape. And I must get revenge on Patricia.

Just as I was in the middle of my thoughts, I felt my eyes teare open as I saw the sealing that I saw the first time when I woke up in this God for saken place. I'm awake.

I sat up straight, ignoring the pain that shoots through me. The only thing on my mind is personally ripping Patricia's head off. She was my friend yet she betrayed me like this and is now trying to kill me. She is Mike's girlfriend, yet she cheated on him and almost already killed him.

"Clara!"

I turned my head to the left and saw Mike sitting on the little nightstand next to the small broken tablelamp. He was looking at me as if I was the first ray of light he had seen in days. Maybe weeks.

He rushed to my side and gave me a small hug being careful to not hurt me. I was surprised how he was standing cause I remember him with a large wound on his side and big blood loss, yet here he is. Weird.

He carefully released me and stepped back a bit. "How you feeling?"

"Good." Was all I could manage from my experience with almost everlasting darkness, or near death, depends on what you see it as. "How long was I out?"

"An hour. Maybe half. Not sure. Wasn't much though." He said looking at the pillow where probably a few moments ago my head was resting. There was happiness with a bit of sadness mixed in his eyes.

I turned around eyeing the broken down door and than it all came back. Our fight. My out burst. The door. My bleeding neck. I grabbed my neck as the images of it bleeding shot through my head. I winced as my hand made contact with the cloth on my wound.

I looked at my hands, they were also full of cuts. My right foot was sore as hell. My back was literally killing me. I sighed as my body kept making me wince in pain.

"I'm sorry." I heard him say with regret in his voice. But before I could even turn around to face him...

BANG!
