Maria's POV

Where am I...? It's cold and wet. I don't like it. I can't see I want to get out.

'Maria! Maria, please!' Shadow? Shadow?! Help! Please!

My eyes open and scan around franticly. Where's Shadow? I just heard him next to me!

'Don't leave me! Please, Maria! MARIA!'

He's right in front of me, pounding on the glass before me. I reach forward and push on the glass.

Out, out OUT! I want to get OUT!

I punch the glass and see cracks appear.

Some fluid sprays out. I kick the glass, making it break.


Running.

I remember running, in a corridor, like the ARK, following Shadow. I've never run so hard or fast before because of my illness. But now...I feel so much stronger! Maybe, maybe I've been cured?

'C'mon Maria! You have to hurry! You need to escape!' Why do I need to escape specifically? Don't you mean 'we'?

He turns a corner and comes to a door. Shadow phases through the door, and I burst through it, breaking the door down. That was sorta scary!

I look around frantically and see Shadow running over to a river, then he jumps in. I panic.

HE CAN'T SWIM!

I run and jump in after him, immediatly feeling the current pull me under. I hear the sound of rushing water and immediatly know what it is.

Waterfall.

I think I'm going to die. Again.

I can see Shadow, reaching up for me. I want to save him. To save us.

'Maria! Use the power of Chaos! It's yours now!' Chaos power? How? What do I do to use it?

'Fly Maria! The power of flight is in your hands! Use it!' Flight?! I can?! Okay, then I'll give it a try!

"CHAOS FLIGHT!" I yell out as my fall slows, but Shadow continues to dive. I dart down for him.

*Splash!*
