His eyes were closed, he knew that much. He was just waking up, but he didn't remember going to sleep. He did, however, remember something along the lines of extreme exhaustion... and heavy rain. There was no rain right now, he could feel the warmth of the sun caress his face and arms. Where on earth was he? There was a small breeze, the sound of rustling leaves – even the sound of birds - before he finally decided to open his eyes.
Blue sky, was the first thing he thought. It didn't help him find out where the hell he was. There were a few small, white clouds but it was no less sunny.
Trees and grass. As far as he could see. It was a green field with trees here and there, the wind often running through the treetops. He still didn't know where he was. Maybe if he tried to sit up..
Only now that he tried, he realized how incredibly weak he felt. Numb. But he bit it back – stiff upper lip and all – and managed to sit up to have a better view.
He tried to ignore the black spots - "black spots"... He didn't like that phrase – dancing across his vision because they soon turned out to be the least of his problems...
Pain! A sudden stabbing pain in his chest. Right where his heart was...
He would have clutched said area if his hands weren't needed to keep him up. He bent his legs and managed to lean forward in order to get his hands free, but when he searched underneath his shirt for any injury he found nothing...
Actually it all just felt like... Nothing...
Alright... He needed to get up, find out where he was and keep moving. See, there was a road right over there. Yes. Crossroads actually. More than one way to go, like he usually preferred. This was nothing, he'd ended up strange places before, right?
… But this didn't make any sense! How did he end up here? This looked nothing like the last thing he remembered before passing out! Maybe he didn't pass out... Maybe he passed away.
"Well," he mumbled to himself, relieved that he at least still had his voice. "I guess I really cocked it up this time..." Sigh.
He looked around again only to spot a man in a black coat.
