A/N: The continuing saga of my new story. The next chapter is really difficult to write and I'm doing school stuff right now but I'm putting this up so there's less time waiting. Okay then! Feel free to review if you like it or you want something to happen or if you think it sucks. Anything is welcome! Enjoy.
After what seemed like days of lying silent and motionless on the ground, Kurt noticed a slight change in his environment.
There was a cloud. A foggy presence just to his left.
At first it scared him. Kurt didn't know where he was or what this place was capable of. The fog could be anything. When it started moving like it was alive, he knew to be careful. His first thought was to stay completely still but then he grimaced, realizing he already had that covered.
After several hours of movement the fog hadn't acknowledged Kurt's presence at all. It acted as if it didn't really know where it was, constantly shifting around the same 4 square feet.
Eventually, Kurt decided the foggy entity was completely harmless, at least for now. The confusion of the blob was almost comforting. The two of them were going through a new experience together, whether or not the fog realized it.
Over the days the bond between Kurt and the fog became so strangely intimate that Kurt felt a change. His arms and legs had been twitching for a few minutes after being paralyzed for so long. He tested his newfound motor control and rejoiced in his ability to move. It would take him hours to regain full motion but he vowed to learn more about his bizarre, foggy friend.
Blaine paced frantically over the ground he had previously explored, afraid to venture out into the further unknown. The darkness was worrying and it hadn't gotten better in the days since he had awoken. Every day he put his hand right in front of his face to test the visibility but nothing ever changed.
Until one day, when the light appeared.
It was hazy, and very dim. No matter how dim and vague it was two things became apparent. Blaine wasn't blind. He had also been in a clearly unfamiliar possibly dangerous room for an unknown amount of time. As a second thought, it came to him that he could still be blind, and the light was just his mind tricking after being sense deprived for so long. He approached the light on an impulse but before he could touch it, it seemed to stand.
This was strange. In Blaine's experience light was not sentient. It could not stand.
In response to the abnormality, he froze and inspected the presence with his eyes first. He noticed no obvious threats but still proceeded warily.
Touching the light made him feel warm inside. It was like something settled into place and he knew that there was no danger ahead. When he was with the light he was safe. The light was still an unknown but it was the most comforting aspect of his life.
After Kurt stood up, the fog had moved closer like it could suddenly see him. It reached out and touched his chest, making the spot feel warm. The touch was like a safety blanket around his worrying mind. The fog was his friend, and however long Kurt was going to be in the strange place, he knew the fog was going to stay with him.
