It was dark, I was cold. I had no idea where I was, or more importantly who I was. Those two facts alone scared me more than anyone could imagine.
The same questions shot through my head like lightning. my questions would continue to echo through my mind. I didn't have the answer to the simple question of what my name was. I wanted, no I needed answers, however I didn't have the smallest clue to what those answers might be. The fact I was alone sent shivers up my spine. I was scared and that's all I knew.
I wanted to scream and shout but knew my efforts would be useless. I knew no one would hear me and I'd be shouting into an empty void. I felt as if everything was gone -ripped away from me- and I was loosing my sanity little by little. Although one lone sentence would echo through my mind as all the others came to a halt.
" Someone please help me."
I had lost all of my hope. I felt as if I had been in this darkness for so long, but I'd still repeat the one phrase; and silently wait for a reply that would never come. i needed to be taken out of this dark lonely void, I needed someone to save me; to help me.
Then only once did I ever get a reply. the reply was faint, barely audible. a voice that I knew wasn't my own from the cluster in my head.
"Don't worry, we'll save you."
That one reply, barley anything, gave me hope in all of my darkness.
