Darkness.
It was so dark.
I couldn't feel anything- no, I didn't want to feel anything. Never again.
They died.
Because of me.
Everyone.
Everyone.
Everyone.
I couldn't see anything- it was too dark.
Even so- I could see the faces of the dead… their grief… their anguish…
There was a white place in the middle of this darkness- a place I knew. I'd been there before.
I'd been here before.
I wanted to go there- I wanted to get away from this darkness.
But my feet didn't move. My body didn't move.
I just didn't want to move.
I wanted to be here.
I wanted to stay here.
I wanted to just fade.
Perhaps I wanted… death…
***
Drip.
Drip! Drip!
Something was coming this way. Something big. Something dark.
Something terrible.
I'd seen it before.
I'd feared it before.
I'd avoided it before.
