Sophie looked down at her hand, it was bloody and scratched up. She looked all around her. All Blackness. Nothing was there. Absolutely nothing. All she saw were tiny specks of light, almost like stars all around her. Then the rest was all black. Sophie looked at her other hand, scratched up as well, but it had a tint of purple in it. She started to scream, louder and louder, hoping someone would hear her. Where was she? She didn't remember anything before.
Sophie wiped her bleeding hand on her shirt, now it was stained for sure. A souvenir to this time.
If she ever got out.
Sophie looked all around her again, but this time, she wasn't screaming, just taking in her...surroundings. Sophie got a glance behind her, she twisted her back as far as she could. Then she turned. She realized that she wasn't stuck in one place. She could move around. Sophie walked on the air, as she moved farther and farther into the blank space all around her. Her foot slipped, which she didn't even know how it did because she was floating around before, not even touching a hard surface, and now Sophie was falling. Farther and farther into the blackness, her screams echoing all around her, even though she knew no one could hear her. Sophie kept screaming until her lungs had no air left. Now all she could do was speak in a low whisper. She was still falling, she knew that for sure, and she didn't know when it would end, but she knew where she was.
Finally, her arms stopped flailing about and her cries succeeded. She had hit ground. Real ground. Not the blackness, a rock. It had….shells on it? She looked up, blackness around her. But, when she looked back down, she saw the rock again. Was she imagining this?
No. This was real.
Sophie bent down and grazed her hand across the surface of the rock. It was cold. Now she heard rushing of the waves hitting the ground. And the yells of children in the ocean. She looked up again. Now the scene wasn't black anymore. She was in Eternalia. Sitting in the middle of all the buildings.
All Alone.
No people dressed in fancy clothes and robes, rushing around, knocking on doors, and shopping. Nothing.
That's when Sophie heard a scream.
