What Awaits Beyond the Tunnel

Adam Samson wakes up to find himself trapped within a darkness that he seeks to escape. In addition, he has no recollection as to how he came to wake up there, though, that may be because he can't remember anything from before the darkness. Now, Adam wanders through his surroundings in the hope of finding light to lift the obscurity he woke up in. But, just how will he react to the return of his lost memories, and will he wish to go back from where he came?

This story is simply the result of an extra credit assignment, for which we were to write a 500 word short story using a given image-now the story cover. I felt that the story I wrote was good enough to be published for the public here, so, now I present it to you.

To the best of my knowledge, this should still count as an original work, even if it was inspired by an image.

I don't own the song mentioned within the story.
