It has been a few hours bro, are you like still not tired of swimming?
"Yo, if I am not dying of distress then why do I suddenly hear a narration out of nowhere?"
Look, you just suddenly broke the fourth wall and interrupted me, which in turn, made me sentient, because I can at least listen and understand the character and now we are both novel-less.
*huff…huff*
So you do get tired?
"Screw you dude"
It's getting darker for some reason, so anyway—
"What?"
Yo?
The hell man is the narrator gone?
Am I the narrator now?
Well let's act like one, would still be funnier than this ocean and this sudden black sky.
Ahem…
My name is Peter Gallagher and I will not drop a shit ton of backstory, the thing is my uncle died of cancer due to toxic fumes at his company, he was my only family so I sued his company, in turn they kidnapped me, put me in a lab of some sort for a year, and a year later, I ran out of there, killed everyone involved, became a domestic terrorist because of it and rest is known.
Now the problem is that I have just realized, but if I raise my hands I can touch the sky, which probably means it is not a sky and quite possibly a ceiling of some sort, thank God I am not claustrophobic or else, well you know.
…
Eventually, the ocean kept getting darker and darker, at this point, there isn't a single noise! And the ceiling touches my head as I swim through these dark waters.
…
Okay dude, it's been a few more hours now, the entire environment is pitch black, my head is now in constant contact of sky(ceiling), I cannot see my own arms, and this is still the ocean.
Where do I go?
…
Few more hours have passed since then, the ceiling feels lower, I have to keep my face submerged in water up to my philtrum, if I swim wrong way, I might drown!!
Fuck this narrator shit, that creepy ass voice sent me to a fate worse than death, I can barely breathe now and there is no room to turn around, yes, right, my back is now in constant contact of wall, and I am sure everything behind me has vanished.
Wait, AW HELL NAHH, I hear waves.
Glurp….blurg…mehrg….

BWAAAH….
*pants*
Goddamn
There was already no room to keep my head out of water, waves on top of it.
But it seems like the ceiling has lifted upwards.
…
Now a few hours have passed, it seems like the ceiling keeps going above and above. Is this reverse of what I just went through?
Will the light shine upon me?
…
I am not really good at narration, I am not speaking anymore.
…
…
…
…
Hey! Peter where were you the whole time?
"Yo! Dude where were you man, I missed you"
I thought you didn't like me? But where were you, I thought you vanished from the novel.
"Vanished? Dude, I think, I just became a huge claustrophobic a few hours ago, but you probably know it"
I don't know, I went blind for a few hours, I was scared to death man, vision, voice, and sentience are the only things that help me exist.
"Wait, so why didn't you speak?"
What do you mean?
"Bro the place I was at was pitch dark, so if you were there too, then we could have communicated"
Oh yeah, you are right! I did hear the sound of waves
"You Asshole, you were with me the entire time!! And you didn't say anything, why the hell then did you ask me where was I?"
Calm down, man, I asked that because I couldn't see where you were, I knew you were there, not just where!
"Man, if you just had said anything, it would've been a bit less scary!!!"
Anyways, I see a ray of light in front of me.
After swimming for a few hours, me and the boy, were now right in front of another beach.
"Yo, this beach doesn't have snow!"
You are right! It is all sand! Weird place man.
"Let's just see where we are"
The boy stepped on the shore and walked towards the beach in his completely wet formal attire, which attracted the attention of public.
"Stop this bullshit, what if they hear your goofy ass narration?"
It doesn't seem like anyone can hear me, a lot of guys aren't reacting. Plus my narration might act like an omnipotent pair of eyes, since I can see everything happening in a 500 miles radius.
"Whatever"
"Excuse me miss! As you can see, I need a bit of medical attention, where is the nearest military camp?"
The lady seemed amused by the boy's looks and speech.
"What do you mean? Just go to the hospital nearby", said the lady smiling.
"Wait! There are hospitals that are still not under military?" exclaimed the boy
"There are hospitals occupied by military?" asked the lady, surprised.
"You live here and you don't know?" asked Peter
"I am Japanese, I don't know what Americans are up to these days? Maybe?"
"The hell is Japanese and American?"
Calm down Peter, I think she's trying to identify her nationality and doesn't know much about this place either.
"You're a tourist?"
"Yeah"
"Sorry miss, have a nice one" said Peter and walked away.
"Dude, are we outside the novel or something?"
Seems to be, but I still do not have any physical existence! Why the hell am I still a narrator, man. And why didn't you just ask me for hospital?
"She seemed cute"
Oh!
Peter, there's a guy running straight towards you.
Peter turned around to face a scrawny looking guy, with spectacles and hoodie on him.
"Who are you?"
"I…am…"
"A loser?"
Oh hell! Peter, be a bit compassionate for others.
"I am sorry, kid, who are you though?"
"Should I say it?" said the kid
"Well obviously" replied Peter
"I wasn't talking to you" said the kid
Wait his reply doesn't match his demeanor, wasn't he anxious a second ago?
"Nice to meet you Peter", wait whoa what, this kid knows your name.
"How do you know my name?" asked Peter now a bit nervous.
"I have an ability called status window, and I was given a quest to escort you to home." Replied the kid.
"What's a status window?" asked Peter, but I wonder the same.
"I will explain everything on the way, now come on" ordered the kid.
"I really want to kick this brat's ass"
Let's keep it excellent between us, Peter
