The Void
Blackness, that's all I could see. It was like I was dead, I probably am dead… But, wait, if I were dead how am I still thinking? Maybe if I try to open my eyes. I could feel the muscles moving…I blinked, the white almost blinding me… Where am I? I swore it was the end. That thing's energy was going to kill me, but…I looked down at my body, hands groping my chest through the yellow spandex material. I'm alive…at least I think I'm alive. If not…where am I?
All I can see is white, it was an endless void. I looked down at the gray disk supporting me as I sit here just staring, searching for something in this nothingness. Suddenly I felt the disk shirt and I stood up, it was shrinking. I started to panic, would I fall forever? It vanished from under my feet and I was left to hover helplessly in this sea of empty matter.
"Hello!?" I screamed, hoping that someone could hear me, but…my voice didn't echo at all. "This place is really empty…" I sighed and lent forward in a hope to move forward. To be honest, I can't even tell if I did move. "Where the hell am I?" I started to feel an uneasiness bubble in my stomach. This place was so cold, so sterile. The white was almost maddening in itself, and the emptiness…I don't want to think about it but I have to. It was like it was mocking me, reminding me that there was nothing for me here…wherever "here" is. I frowned and looked down at myself again. I poked at the symbol on my chest. I can't believe I'm okay…I felt my body disappear when the last wave of energy hit me…nut here I am.
"What happened to me?" I took a deep breath to try and calm the fear bubbling inside; I pulled my cowl down and ran my fingers in my hair. "All right wall-man… let's think this out." The last thing I remember before this void…Barry, Bart and I were trying to reverse that doomsday machine the reach made…bastards. We were running and the energy was lashing out at me because I am slower than Barry and Bart. I should be dead. But, I'm not? …or am I? This could be that middle realm between heaven and hell. Shouldn't there be more people though? Unless we all get our own little slice of it… maybe I can find someone else… Hm… My head hurts… I looked around again, still nothing but white empty space…Sigh.
"I wish I could at least stand…" I mumbled looking down at my feet. I kicked them slightly and I felt my right foot brush something. A gray strip of solid matter formed and stretched as far as this void did…a road. Alright, I could work with that. A smile broke out on my face, "Thank you!" I started to run, as fast as possible, but this place seems absolutely freaking endless!
Then I heard something. I stopped dead in my tracks, ears straining to hear it. It…It was a voice..and it sounded so…familiar…but…it sounded so sad.
"I can't believe he's gone…" My heart sank and I screamed out.
"I'M HERE! I'm right here! I'm not gone! I'M OKAY!" What the hell is this place!? I started to run again, hoping to catch that voice, but it had faded away. Oh god what the hell is happening here? "NO!" I screamed and dropped to my knees. I screamed again, so infuriated. My chest heaved and I felt frightened, confused, scared, and angry all at once. The emotions confused me and I started to sob uncontrollably. "I WANT TO GO HOME!" I wailed, hiding my face in my hands. I growled and slammed them into the thin floor. "I want to go home…" I mumbled weakly, wiping tears from my eyes… "…but how?"
