Chapter 15
Light.
Bathed with intense brightness, I found myself staring at it. The most brilliant light I've ever seen; it was spectacular. The strong radiance that came from it was slowly dragging me; slowly, slowly I tried to reach it but it was too far. Holding out my hand, I swore I could feel it.
"…No, don't go!..."
Slowly fading away as everything began to darken, I was pulled back from the light. I wanted so much to see it again that I tried to run towards it but couldn't even stand. Looking around, I found my surroundings familiar; a hard surface and a dark room.
Struggling once again to stand, I felt a sudden yet quick pain in my chest; then nothing…
Looking at my hands, I realized that I was alright, but couldn't hear anything. A constant beep in my ears was keeping me from hearing, as I saw many shadows moving.
My reactions were slow, and I couldn't understand anything. Everything was moving in slow-motion. Even I seemed to be the same. Standing, I had an urge to look behind; and as I slowly turned around, I saw…
I saw myself; lying on the ground.
Strange figures running around, shadows following after. It was all confusing. Yet there was something on my body. Yes, a pair of arms wrapped around my neck.
"…Who is that, and where am I?…"
Motion began taking its speed, as everything gradually began to move normally. The beep going down in intensity, I heard faint voices, no, screams.
"…What's going on?..."
It was then when it happened.
Boom!
An enormous noise followed by a thunderous wave, it shocked me to the core. Screams flowing thru, and steel ringing; my hearing had returned. Regaining my consciousness, everything flowed normal again. A strange person grasping me; I turned to look up and it all came to me at once.
Woosh!
It was clear now; we were in a boss room. The twenty-fifth boos room.
