~Babil, 6115 a.d. Day 174~
Lily ran through the dark hallway of Babil in a mad flurry. In every direction she looked, she saw the same faces. She could hear wails trailing behind her. She did not dare to stop for fear that she was engulfed by the voices. She didn't want to think.
She was stopped momentarily. Not long after, a cloud of dust gathered around her. She would continue running no matter how many times that happened. She simply ran forward, whichever direction she thought forward was.
She couldn't scream even if she wanted to.
After it happened a few more times, Lily was forced to close her eyes.
Sudden light blinded her momentarily. The cloud of dust made everything blurry. But she kept going forward, running full speed into a person. That person was knocked to the ground, followed by a yelp. Lily fell on top of the person. She had been afraid that whatever strange force had taken control of her surrounding would act again, but it did not.
