I can think that I can positively say that I am wayyy more confused than you are, dear readers.
Like, alright, I know for a FACT that I went to sleep in my new bed
in my new room
in my
new house
Now.. i'm laying on some floor, surrounded by a lot of sus looking people and, my neighbor?
i think...he looks like the boy who was peeking out his window all day yesterday
i don't know who these other people are though, there's two other boys and a girl.
what the fuck is going on?!
apparently i said that out loud
"SILENCE GIRL."
a voice booms from under a mask in front of us
"sorry" i whispered and looked over at my neighbor, who looked like he was about to pass all the way the out.
"DO YOU ALL KNOW WHY YOU ARE HERE?"
Crickets.
"I SAI-"
"can't you just tell us?" said the girl. She was sitting crisscross, leaning back on her hands
oh my god.
"yeaaa uh...i just moved here and I think you got the wrong..people."
i looked around at everyone else
My neighbor was still barely conscious
one boy looked high
the other looked like he was three seconds away from loosing his shit
and the girl was just staring at the masked man
laughing filled the room, it was the masked man.
"These are The Five, i should count myself lucky to be in your presence."
He bowed, slowly lifting his head to look at me
"Tell me Aether, do you remember me?"
Before I could register that was was speaking to me, he was in front of me, tightly squeezing my neck
Wow...was I really about to die?
my mom..she'll be all alone...
my ears rung and my throat burned
everything hurt
until it didn't
my body warmed, black surrounded and my body sunk
reminding me of what i used to think it would feel like...
to live in a cloud.
