"salutations!" and unknown voice broke the silence.

you quickly opened your eyes, surprised by the sound. you found yourself on the ground, no longer floating. you were slightly relieved by this. you look up, meeting the gaze of..a...person? a being, certainly. they looked kind enough, though a little strange, as if someone took two different things and just. mashed them together. half yellow, half blue, jet black hair and a crooked smile. you were oddly intrigued.

"h. hello." you managed to choke out, your voice dry and hoarse. "what's your -your name?" an awkward statement, at best, but it was too late to go back now.

"ah, my name's ena!" the unknown creature chirped cheerfully. "a pleasure to meet you. would you.." they paused for a second. "..like some assistance?"

"assistance?" you questioned. you were confused, until you realized the position you were in. lying with your back on the ground, arms sprawled out beside you. you gasped, quickly sitting up. you must have fallen down somehow. that made more sense, you probably looked like a total idiot just lying there. an embarrassed blush dusted your cheeks. "oh! oh no im fine!!" you stammered out, standing up and brushing yourself off hastily.

ena chuckled. "thats quite alright. i just wanted to make sure you were okay! its not every day i come across someone like you."

"heh, yeah.." you looked down at your feet. you didnt even know where you were and youve already made a fool of yourself.

"may i get your name?" ena inquired.

"oh! its (y/n)!!" you replied, not even sure how you knew your name. you didnt remember anything else about yourself.

ena clapped their hands. "bravo! what a wonderful name indeed! a pleasure to meet you, (y/n)."

"yeah! same to you!" you laughed awkwardly "also..um..okay this is gonna sound kinda weird but, do you...know where we are? like..what is this place?" you asked nervously, glancing at your surroundings. the space around you was grey, and barren. the sky almost looked cloudy, and the ground was flat and dark. it was empty, too. you couldnt see any buildings, or any other people.

ena shrugged. "we're....here." they stated. "im not certain this place has a name." you were taken aback, slightly, by this. how could it not have a name? how did you even get here? questions swam through your mind, but you decided to put them away for now. "um..alright." you replied confusedly.

ena extended a hand towards you. "well, (y/n), im actually on my way to visit a friend of mine, care to join me? you dont seem like you have anything else to do."

you hesitated before taking it. you only just met this.. ena person, but, seemingly out of the blue, a little voice in your mind assured you that you could trust them. you hesitantly grabbed their hand. "o- okay! id love to!"

"wonderful! oh, im sure you and moony will get along just perfect!!" ena exclaimed, slowly beginning to walk a steady pace. you grasped their hand whilst trailing behind them, not daring to let go. you couldn't help but smile to yourself, despite the mystery surrounding your situation. ena certainly made you feel welcome, wherever 'here' was.

maybe just being 'here' was okay.
