This one's just a little shortie. It's supposed to be short. :0 Next one is longer, I promise. Reviews, por favor?
Disclaimer:Nope...still nada!
Leo's eyes flickered open. He felt slightly disoriented from meditating so long. At least, it felt like a long time, but he had no means to tell. He listened carefully to the silence around him. Then he faintly heard it again. Shivering slightly, he got to his feet and looked for the source of noise that had disturbed him.
"Hello?" His voice rang endlessly as it echoed through wherever he was. "Is someone here?"
He scanned around. That's creepy, he thought just to himself because there was still nothing but an expanse of gray…
There it was again! Leo sprang to his feet, and he made to draw his katana. However, he didn't find them in their sheath.
"I know you're there!" His voice, sounding slightly frantic, echoed…echoed…and echoed…
Was that breathing? A heavy labored breathing? Where was it coming from? He felt himself spinning around, trying to find its source.
He stopped when he realized that he had heard himself all along.
Leo hugged his knees to his plastron, losing all the progress he had made through his meditation. He must be crazy.
But if he was insane, why would he still be hearing that noise? Those footsteps? His hands let go of his knees, his head tilted upward, and his brown eyes cautiously looked ahead.
He could see someone coming closer, appearing in the gray. He watched the figure until it stood before him.
