Snow Man

Chapter 11 - the hall way of death

They look familiar.

Like I have seen them before in another life.

The broad man, the panic on his face, the determined look he has for this girl, all looks so familiar. But I can't put my finger on it. I know who this man is but I just can't remember the connection I have for him.

The girl under him is the same. She looks as though I know her. But the blood and the bandage covering half her face stopped me from recognising her properly.

Although I have no idea who these people are, I have the strange urge to help them.

I need to help them.

I take a few steps closer, getting int the full view of the circle.

When I realised it wasn't a circle, it's bigger than that. It's taller than me and three times as wide.

I looks more like a door way to me now.

Im so close I can almost feel the cold coming from the snow through the doorway.

I can see individual spots of blood spurting from the wound her head, and landing in the white ice several feet away.

I could still feel the jolting in my chest. It matched every contraction the man tried to make the little girls heart beat. I could hear it. The soft thump every time s hands pressed against her chest.

I did have some connection to this girl.

I reached out to touch the screen.

And my hand fell through. As of the screen was made of water instead of glass.

I yelped and pulled back when I realised the little girls heart started to beat for a very short amount of time when my hand was with them. Then it stopped again.

I knew everything.

The man was my father and the little girl is me.

I mentally slapped myself for not recognising myself, or my father.

It's my heart he's trying to start. It's my life on the line. And it's my soul and my ghost that is watching my self get further and further away from reality.

I wanted to live.

And I at least have to try to keep dad sane.

He can't lose me too.

I took a few steps back, thinking I was insane for trying this, it could turn out a disaster, or it could do nothing at all.

I guess I have to take that chance.

I got into a sprint towards the gapping hole in front of me.

Not know what I would a accomplish I ran towards my body.

Yes I'm strange. Get over it.

And yes this is a chapter about the hallway between being dead and alive.

Not many would want to run away from the pretty light.
