The candle went out with a silent puff. The smoke drifted away, as I knew my memories soon would too.
"Follo' me please," Fanny said.
I headed towards the dark door. Towards the darkness that was sure to be my future. What was it like?
I sat in the chair, trying not to cry. I knew it would look kinda stupid if I was crying when I came out and I didn't even remember what I was crying about.
I watched the thing slowly lowered to my face. Suddenly the plunger thing popped out and everything happened too fast but instead of the blinding flash of light that everyone told me would be my last childhood memory I saw images racing across the screen and I couldn't catch any of them but somehow understood them all and then….it was over. The thing came away from my face. I looked around. Hey….I still knew where I was. But I couldn't let anyone know that. Somehow I knew not to.
I stepped out of the room. A teammate walked up to me.
"Do you….know where you are?" he asked me.
I shrugged and shook my head. "Beats me." Even though I knew perfectly well.
"Come on. I'll take you home."
"Whatever kid," I said, playing up my acting skills. I smiled a little, hoping no one would notise. I was in the TND.
Ok…so, this can be about anyone you want (I was kinda picturing Abby at the time tho). It's a kwl little fic, right? R&R!
