Through Foreign Eyes
Italicized are Mercury's thoughts.
I was thrown into another world, this clearly wasn't Delphi. It wasn't as magestic yet it was more beautiful. I was plummeted to the grounds surface where I lay face down almost drowning in pools of water.
I sat up and grabbed my head. Oh, how it hurt so bad. Opening my eyes fully, (I had been wincing from the pain), I noticed decrepid looking towers all flashing an angry red as lightening cracked onto them one after another.
"Oh, this can't be good." I muttered to myself. I looked up horrified to see that a bolt was landing right at me. I jumped up and rolled out of the way. As the lightening cracked I held my chest scared at what happened.
I felt my heart racing in my chest. I was clearly very, scared. I stood up quickly and looked both ways. Vast open area with discolored ground. I looked above me to see that lightening was cracking all but ten feet in all directions around me. This was spooky.
I looked to the left of me and noticed a cave way!! out in the distance.
Maybe it leads somewhere?
Well this place can't be to safe, so I might as well hightail it out of here.
I began to walk. My limbs felt like they were on fire and my head wanted to explode. I continued walking nontheless, for the cavern looking thing was not to far. Even if it was just a cave, it would shelter me from this rampaging thunder plain. This was horrible. Nikaru really sent me flying.
Yeah through another world portal you numbskull.
My mind flashed from scenes of my previous fight to my sticky predicament here. My guardians almost had a heart attack as I went fying through the circle of mass, emitting from Nikaru's very palm.
As I walked I stared at this cavern. Dodging a few bolts felt like a giant task. I was just cursing at my body, which felt like it was going to die when all of a sudden, these floating creatures attacked me.
I hurtled into the ground face first and turned around. They were like the demons and monsters that I had to fight back home when training.
Why me?
I felt like just lying here forever. It felt good not to move. With the combined efforts of the lightening bolts and the monster attacks however I could not lay here.
I stood up and put my hands together in front of me; a crystal staff materialized in my hands. I had no choice but to fight. I threw multiple magic spells at the monsters. I have to admit they have balls. They even came close enough to me where I had to use hand to hand combat.
Thank god I'm a jack of all trades then huh?
I thought sarcastically. They fought nasty, using many spells on me and when they got tired of that, ganged up on me and started to attack the ever loving shit out of me. Thankfully I can fight.
One by one the monsters went flying and disintegrated in a mass of flying orbs surrounded by pastel pinks, blues, and greens. I stared in marvel until I noticed a warm gushy feeling from my side. Looking it was profuse bleeding from my side.
Oh, what the hell?
I must have been in to much pain already to notice more damage to me. There were to many monsters to really care.
My staff went back into AoE and I walked some more, dragging my feet slowly from behind me. The blood kept oozing from my side and I felt like my head was no longer attached to my body. I fell to the ground, yet that cavern looking thing was so close?
I just can't make it.
On the ground I rolled over to look at the sky that was just continuing to pour. Before I allowed myself to to just fall into unconciousness, I heard footsteps around me. I felt the body heat of something even closer.
Not More monsters?
I lifted my eyes up best I could. Not monsters, but human looking things that also looked like discolored elves. I was scared of them, but I couldn't help but feel the dizziness surround me. I finally just let go and the last thing I heard was, "Do we bring her to Lord Seymour?"
