No burning. Just light. It was like she was in a tunnel going through patches of light after endless light. But then the tunnel stopped and at the end of it was a black hole. Of course the devil would be cruel like this, to bring her down a lit tunnel only to throw her into her own torturous dark abyss.
Wait. No. There were voices down there, down in the black hole. Screams actually. Just screams.
Then the world spun and pain flared from her head, down her spine, to her toes. Everything hurt, and yet the demon was picking her up again.
Lots of voices now to accompany the screams. All of them disjointed and incoherent.
Except one.
"Quinn," the demon said. Another scream. "Quinn please. Calm down." So it could torture her more? Warmth surrounded her and she felt herself trembling despite the comfort; she was too scared to be consoled by it.
"Everything is going to be alright," the demon told her. "Just stay with us." Us? Of course there was more. And they were all going to follow her down into that black hole the devil reserved just for her.
She was being lifted again. One final scream shook her entire being as the demon stepped forward, into the blackness. The light disappeared from behind them. No sounds except for ragged breathing. She was still trembling and the demon held her closer. It started moving again, its feet scuffing on the floor. Then she was being lowered and felt softness, like a cloud, beneath her. She didn't move and couldn't have if she had wanted to. She closed her eyes, though it didn't make any sense to. Eyes open or closed she saw the same thing: nothing but black.
The sound of water running confused her and she opened one eye to see if there was anything to see. Nothing. She shivered and tried to move her arms around herself but they wouldn't respond to her command. Her body was freezing, like she was made of ice, but the cloud below her was warm and was very slowly heating her up. It was soft as well and she wondered why something so nice was in Hell.
Her eyes fell shut again and she realized that the ragged breathes had disappeared. So had the voices. And the screaming. The only sound now was the water running somewhere in the blackness.
Her body felt heavy and she felt exhaustion start to creep at the corners of her being. She was about to contemplate why she was tired if she was dead but then the exhaustion overtook her and pulled her down into its heavenly embrace.
AN: Not as good as the last chapter in my opinion but still fun to write ^^ Everything will be back to normal perseption next chapter
