Chapter 3

You are me


1 day after the attack

"You did well, I'm proud of you"

"Who are you…?"

"I am you"

He was walking in blackness. A never ending sea of thought and despair. He was talking to a sweet voice, a girls voice, the voice he had heard before.

"How are you?" Asked the sweet voice

"I don't know" He replied to the darkness

The voice seemed to be amused by this answer.

"Don't worry, you will" the voice told him

From the blackness a shape seemed to form, surrounded by a faint while light. The form of a young woman, no less than 15, appeared before him. He could see that she was thin, with long smooth curves along her body. She was wearing no clothes but her body was covered in darkness, her hair was the only part of her body he could distinguish. The hair was red as blood and it flowed down slightly below her elbows. He could not see her face and her eyes were closed, but he could see her turn her head in his direction.

"Who are you?" He asked

"I am you" she replied

A long silence…

"Who… am I?" He asked

"You are me" She replied

At this answer she gave him a smile, a kind and loving smile. She slowly opened her eye and stared into his eyes. Her Eyes were Green, with a slight glow, as if all the knowledge and despair of the darkness were held inside them.

He just stared into those eyes, those lovely piercing green eyes. He couldn't move, he just stood there, transfixed into her gaze.…

She walked slowly towards him, until she was a mere foot away. He noticed they were the same height. She smiled as a tear ran down her face, then she slowly gave him a huge. He had never felt this close to someone before, he wrapped his arms around her and they shared the moment for a long while. She then whispered something into his ear as he stood there.

"Wake up, your new life awaits…"

He felt himself Being pulled away by some unknown force, pulling him from the darkness, the despair. He looked up and locked eyes with the girl once more, she stared back with that same kind of loving smile as all went black…

"I'll be watching you…"
