Prologue : Dreaming
O o O
It was dark. It was dark, even though there was strange green mist that distorted everything around it. Through that mist, she could feel herself running.
She was so out of breath. Her throat was on fire, and it was physically painful moving her legs. Tears stung in her eyes… but everything else was so cold. Too cold.
For some reason, she didn't stop. It wasn't that she couldn't stop. It was that she didn't want to. Even if for nothing else, she would have run for eternity, she had to. She was being chased by at least half a dozen murderous soldiers.
She panicked. She looked over her shoulders, frightened that her enemies were closing in on her. Frightened that there was no where for her to go.
She stumbled, landing painfully on her knees as her right hand hit the floor – keeping her somewhat off her face. She climbed onto her feet hastily.
She started running again.
But the soldiers were behind her. And they were drawing nearer.
Her fear intensified as she found herself scrambling up a ramp towards a circular dais. When she reached it, she stopped short and stared at the massive thing that now blocked her path. There was no where left for her to go. She had been cut off by something incredible… and terrible… She had no idea what it was. But it left her afraid. She was more afraid of it than she was even of the soldiers that now stood not even twenty yards away.
Two spotlights suddenly flashed to life. She let out a small cry in surprise, as the two beams blinded her. She trembled as her eyes adjusted, and turned towards the soldiers.
Several weapons were being handled. She looked at the soldiers in alarm, and she brought her hand up to her chest, praying to be saved.
The soldiers were aiming their guns, but she wasn't paying attention anymore. She looked up noticing the opening ceiling. Her dull blue widen in curiosity. She looked at the soldiers. One stepped forward hand held out. She read his words. "This is your last chance, Serena. Come."
Serena smiled gently. She once loved this man. How could someone so breathtaking be so evil .
She looked into his eyes. They were such a soft brown… and his hair such a dark brown, his tanned skin… His face was so gentle… unchanging. But conniving.
She wasn't about to let herself fall into his trap again.
She could see herself reflected in his eyes. A single tear was sliding down her cheek. So this was her fate…?
She needed to stay alive. Serena stepped forward, placing her hand into his.
He pulled her,his gripped tightened around her hand, laughing wickedly.
She looked at him… it hurt so much just to move her fingers. As close as they were… they had never been so far apart.
She wanted to scream. She wanted to weep. She wanted to tell him how much she despised him.
But it was too late.
And above them, their bodies were watched over by a silent, monstrous, titanic piece of machine. Everything went black.
