The red from the white petals were coming back. But coming back to where? To you. You felt your energy surging back, and that wouldn't be happening if you were still losing your life liquid. The pool of blood began to shrink, like someone put a rewind and all of it is going back into your brain. After a few minutes, you had the ability to move your arms, and your legs! What a weird yet magnificent thing! You don't know how this could be happening, but it did. At this point you were jumping with joy!
That didn't last long. You had noticed a petal with some, different features than the rest of the other petals. This one seemed to have writing on it. It asked "Enjoying this?" Enjoying this? Hell no! This was horrible wasn't it? The past events that have been happening to you were downright horrible! But if someone were to write this message, then that means that someone else is here! You stuff the petal into your pocket and began running. Running to find a different place, a person, anything besides these petals! You kept running, you must've ran for at least a good half hour. Good stamina. But then you slowly stopped and looked around. You notice a white thing on the ground. And it wasn't a white petal. Instead, it was a string. A really long and thick one. It was like one of those tight ropes used in a circus. Actually there were multiple of these.
It was stretched straight and across the floor. Hold up, it seems to be moving? You ignore this crazy thought. But how can a rope be super straight on the ground? It's probably being tied and stretched over something. A chasm maybe? Anyways, you get worried if you were to walk around the rope, you would instead fall again. So you take a chance : you walk the tightrope. Wow how brave! I surely hope you don't fall.
You begin to take one very shakey step on the rope. It wasn't too tight, it was kinda bouncy. That was bad. You would obviously prefer it to be tight. But again, you decide to take the risk. Maybe if you run, it'll be faster? Honestly, what could go wrong? You've already been through some bad things. And you've established your theory of this being a game. So none of this is real? Anyway, you began to carefully sprint across the rope. You knew that if you stopped you would fall, so you just kept running on the rope. But you soon realize this rope was long. Like really long. You quickly look up and find a big big spider shooting out this "rope". Well this isn't rope anymore, it's a sticky web. No wonder you weren't falling. You thought it was your lucky tightroping skills. But you do have good balance.
You arrive at the absolutely massive spider. The spider just keeps shooting the web, pushing you further and further away from it. That explains why the rope was moving. But now that you've stopped moving you instantly fell. What a bummer. You cling on the web with one arm, and hold on for your life. Who knows what could happen if you suddenly fall? The spider had stopped. Um. It's heading toward you. Wow, it must think that you're food. You make a desicion to let go. You aren't going to let a spider eat you. No way. No absolute way. But you couldn't let go. Ha. Just when you want to fall, this fate doesn't let you huh? You shut your eyes and hope for the worst.
You feel some sorta thing wrapping around you. Oh yeah. Spiders do that huh? You slowly open your eyes, and you are literally like a mummy. Wrapped in spider string, it was a thing you didn't ever want to experience again. It only took a few moments for the spider to completely cover you, head to toe, with its silkey super web. Then it ate you. You can feel the saliva and more disgusting things you couldn't even describe. Welp. Is this where you die? It can't be, right? And you're correct. You land with a thump.
Gosh where are you now? This thing is taking you everywhere! You sit, for a while, and decide it would be smart, if you punch the walls of webs. And so you did. BOOF. That was the sound of you punching a web wall. And you look around you. Everything is black, white, or grey. A sigh of sadness leaves your mouth. You decide to take a look around this new place. The floor has decorations of diamond checkers in alternating black and grey colors. The sky was grey, and the clouds were black. The tree over there was grey, but the leaves were white. The fruit of that tree was black. You wonder if that is supposed to be its color, or it's just rotten. Up ahead, there seems to be a grey and white castle. Wait. A castle? You quickly run towards it. Big black words on a grey wooden sign was on the front of the castle. The sign wrote "PARADISE". Well this has gotta be good right? There were no guards or anything like that blocking the min door way, so you invited yourself in.
