Nothingness. White and Void. Going on for what seems forever. I can’t tell if I’m floating or if I’m standing on solid ground. Everything echoes. My thoughts, my breath, my heart. I hear things coming from everywhere and yet from nowhere. There is nothing to be seen for as far as the eye can see. Just pure white surrounding me. It’s so bright I’m blinded at first. I feel nauscious. What is this place?
It feels so real. Is it?
No. No, I’m dreaming this. I remember being in my bed. But then why do I know whats going on, something’s not right.
“Do you know what you ARE child?” a voice bellows from everywhere and nowhere all at the same time, completely surrounding me. It’s so powerful it feels like it’s going to swallow me.
The only response I can muster out is a blunt and fearful “WHAT THE FUCK!??”
My heart races. The echo of it intensifies. The beat pulses in my head, hurting, throbbing.
The voice repeats in an agitated tone, “Do you know what you ARE?”
Self-realization rushes over me. I’ve heard of conscious dreams. Sometimes your able to take control of them and direct them how you want. Realizing my situation, I smirk, and stand up firmly, defiantly responding “No! I don’t know what I am. But if I ask real nice, is the Wizard of Oz going to give me those ruby red slippers so I can get home?”
“QUIET”
The voice screams and I feel every ounce of my body respond in a convulsion. My body shakes uncontrollably. I can’t move, I’m frozen in place, arms and legs spread out off my sides. It feels like insane amounts of electricity are rushing into my system, frying me from the inside out. The pain is unbearable. All I can do is scream.
The pain hits me for what seems like days. It stops. Things stand still. I just catch my breath and then the feeling of weightlessness hits me. I drop. Rather I fall. Turns out I was floating in this white void. Maybe the ground came out from underneath me, I don’t know. I don’t care, at least not now.
Crap! Ground. Hard, solid ground. This has to be the first time I’m not happy to be on it. I dropped chest first. It felt like I was carrying 500 extra pounds with me when I hit.
“Are you done?”
I could only cough. Feeling the blood drip out of my mouth. I watch the gobs hit the ground, they fall in slow motion and hit with a resounding splattering echo. The splash freezes. My eye look up and meet nothing.
“ARE YOU DONE?”
“If your asking if I’m done feeling static in my teeth, then yes…..(cough) I’m done!”
“Do you know what you ARE?”
Again with that question, I think to myself, If my sub-conscious is trying to subliminally tell me something, it has a funny fucked up way of doing it.
“No, I have no clue as to what I am? Are you going to tell me?”
Silence.
Has this “dream” already hit a snag? Is my imagination so limited it can’t think of a response? It can completely physically rape my, but it can’t answer a question?
I hear a noise. It sounds like fire. The smell of something like burning meat and rubber fill the air around me.
The bright white light illuminating the nothingness around me dims. My eyes adjust. It hurts momentarily. As I blink my eyes, trying to focus, something changes in front of me with every blink. The space has turned black. Deep black I can’t see anything. Not even my own hand.
Then a red flash bursts from behind me, I turn to see what it is, I’m caught in a blizzard of snow. I close my eyes. I let the serenity take me and enjoy the peaceful moment.
"You are the first"
The voice boomed down upon me, as I opened my eyes once more, gazing out, expecting to find myself in bitter wind's, a landscape of pure white, I come to witness a raging war, two foe crashing arm's, swords in hand, shot's fire, blazing hot ground's. My skin burned with intense heat like no other I have ever felt, a battle cry burst from behind me, filling my ears and driving my soul into pure fear as I turn to witness the glimmer of a blade, a slice, then once more I fall into a world of blinding white light.
"Am I dead? What the fuck is going on? I'm the first of what!"
I yelled in a confused and terrified manner as I tried to pull together what I had seen, witness felt but nothing came to mind, then everything fell into pure darkness, so dark I couldn't even view my own hand, my eye's slowly close once more as I tried to calm myself.
"This must be a dream"
I said to myself as I opened my eyes once more, darkness gone, new location, home....resting upon my bed, head on pillow, covered lead out upon the floor as I must of thrown them off upon the ground in my nightmare.
I threw myself up right and pulled my lets from my bed and pulled myself to my feet, carrying myself to my window, pushing the blinds a side...
"Where am I?"
I yelled in a worried and confused manner as I gazed out to the world out side, fixing my eyes upon a world ever unlike our own.
A world where people are traveling upon horse back, swords hanging from their waist's in holders and dressed in filth covered dark clothing. Black thick clouds cover the heaven's blobking out sunlight, a endless rain pooring form the heaven's crashing down upon the landscapes, darkness everwhere.
I gazed down upon myself viewing myself in the same dark clothing as those out side, the room I stood in medieval style and low in technology....will you wake from your dreams, finding yourself in the world of Argos, where anything can happen and all has a horror feel to it because of this places dark feel.
This young man wss the first to come to this place from the real world, traveling and dragged her by his dreams and nightmare's forced to live it out in this brutal world until he wakes once more, but when and how...will you be next to join those from the real world? How will you stay a live? It's your life.
