Darkness closed in on me; like a predator did to its prey.
Paralyzed with fear, overwhelmed by guilt, and full of exhaustion, all I could do was powerlessly watch as my enemy approached.
I knew for a fact that death would soon follow—and not just for me, but for all of existence.
"Hehehe." The Nether cackled. "I'll be sure to—"
Suddenly, it stopped taunting and moving closer to me. It was just as abrupt as it was shocking. I was surprised by this, but the next statement that came from his crooked lips shocked me even more.
"Y-you… why are you here?"
His eyes were not on me, but something behind me—something that Instilled fear within him.
"You did well, Jared… or should I call you Lewis now?" A familiar voice danced in my ears, and it wasn't until the sound was uttered that I noticed someone was behind me.
'T-this person…' I tried to look behind me, but my body had grown too stiff to listen to my commands.
