By the time Phil's eyes re opened, he could feel trepidation clouding his actions. Once again, he lay on the ground, his form now pristine and untouched. The scars from before had vanished, leaving his skin in its usual, pale, smooth state. Something felt different however, Phil felt weird, his innards were being as difficult as ever, enforcing a sensation of nausea as he eventually stood.

The dark haired man felt a sense of de ja vu as he took in his surroundings just as he had the first time.

That is, if there were any.

Looking around, Phil saw... nothing. No more trees, not a single breath of wind accompanied Phil's own. Which were increasing in speed as he tried to shout out, but found his voice had been completely severed from him. He couldn't say a thing, he felt helpless. Only the ever expanding darkness was what Phil saw. No matter which direction he turned, or how hard he tried to focus on a single spot, it remained dark.

Phil could feel pressure on his temples as the overbearing sense of silence from before had returned with a vendetta against him. Suffocating him, but at the same time it was as if Phil could feel nothing at all.

Glancing down Phil saw that the floor he appeared to be standing on was smooth and mirror like, almost as if he were stood upon a perfectly calm lake of water. Cautiously, he crouched down and held a shaking hand towards it, half expecting himself to fall through. Instead his palm merely created ripples of white light which began to stretch and contort the further out that they spread, dancing before Phil's eyes before they eventually faded and rippled out of sight.

'What in the heavens is going on now...?' Thankfully, Phil discovered he could

still form coherent thoughts at least. However they seemed to echo around him, travelling far out and back, almost like the ripples had.

Strange or not, the ripples had produced a temporary light source. And they had been the comfort that Phil hadn't felt in this place for a long time. He reached out again, this time flicking the surface that supported him. An outburst of light erupted from the floor, surrounding Phil in its glowing, white haze. Phil used the chance and slowly turned around, observing as much as he could, hoping he would see something. As calming as the light was, nothing came into view. Growing more desperate, more frustrated he punched outwards at the ground. The lights he was creating bouncing of its own tides as Phil created more and more light, trying to scream but being unable, trying to call for help but being forcibly silenced.

Phil could no longer hold back, tears were now running down his features, falling from his face to only be swallowed up by the strange, water like floor. The young man felt too many emotions inhabiting his soul.

Anger, nothing he ever did had gone right so far and the one thing that had had only been answered with him ending up in this now featureless space.

Fear, it had been residing within him since he'd awoken that he might never get out, however that fear was now becoming Phil's reality. That every time he escaped one terrene, he would be moved to the next.

Depression, after he had come to his realization about Dan, he had been sure that he would find a way out. To tell Dan what he had been ready to die just to say. Now he would probably remain here forever, he would never get to tell Dan what he knew, what he felt.

That he... loved him.

Love. Of course that swam through his thoughts too. Yet it was drowning, Phil knew this. He would never get out, and even if he did he wouldn't be able to look Dan in the eye, tell him what happened, or even about his 'revelation'.

More tears.

For a long while Phil merely stood, his head hanging low, his tears merging with the surface below. He still remained silent however, his throat unable to force out any form of sound. However the screams tearing across his mind were practically deafening Phil. Until he felt something.

He wasn't sure whether to flinch away or face whatever he was feeling. It was small, miniscule in fact, if it hadn't been for the fact he was stock still, Phil most likely wouldn't have noticed it.

The ripples. They were returning and now gently lapping at Phils bare feet.

Phil's head snapped up, moving from his toes to follow the direction of the ripples. They were moving in from behind where he stood. Turning round Phil looked ahead, the darkness being interrupted by a faint glow of deep red light.

Whatever it was it was approaching Phil, fast.

Phil at first felt a twinge of anger and fear, what more could this stupid place throw at him?! How dare this world think it possibly had more to torture him with..!

Phil was about to fall into a defensive stance, ready to block whatever attack was coming his way. That was, until he could make out a dark shape moving within the light.

Human, Six feet and three-ish inches. Average build, dark hai-

Phil felt his ribcage judder with the shock as he instantaneously identified the figure.

No way, no, it couldn't be...

Phil could now make out that the figure wasn't just moving towards him, it was sprinting, he could practically see the rise and fall of the chest now, he was so close. A panicked and hopeful voice tore across the emptiness, reverberating around the area and reaching Phil's ears in a matter of seconds before the figure did.

"Phil!?"

Woahoho. Its almost over guys! I'll be sad to see this one end but like I said, I don't want this to become too long a series otherwise I'll probably end up having no idea what I'm doing, ahe, he...yeah.

But anyway, I think it only has one chapter left to go before we FINALLY get to see the end to this adventure.

I hope you have all enjoyed it. I would say this has been one of the most driven stories that I 've forced onto a computer screen. Even if it doesn't get that many reads, favs whatever. I don't care, I had so much fun writing this and that's all that matters, right?

Anyway, hope you all enjoyed it so far and until the next chapter, bye!
