♥ Darkfallen
I dream. Or is it real? What is a dream, and what is reality?
The answer is something I used to know, but no longer.
I remember running. My legs were burning, searing the bones and melt the muscle, my feet pounding one after another in the powdery snow. With each step, more of the crystals flew in my face, fell about my robed body, and left a trail behind me. But I kept running.
I wasn't the only one. Others were beside me, behind me, and in front of me. They kicked up snow in my eyes, but my fear drove me forward. All of us were driven forward by our fear. Our fear of what?
Something appeared on the side of our herd. It ran on all fours, groping the ground and shoving its mess of a body forward. The smell of bones and rotting flesh hit my nose as this creature pounced one of us beside me. He screamed, fell and was lost behind us. Soon, another one of us was taken. And then another, and another..
I didn't see it coming. Fingers curled around my ankles and yanked my body back. I fell forward, my face smashing into a pile of snow and scattering it. Pain rocketed through my body. Looking back, I saw the creature. The face was entirely wrapped, except for its mouth, a simple circle with rows of teeth and slender tongue licking around its mouth.
The creature turned as soon as I had seen its face. It pulled my legs over its shoulders and walked hunched over back from where I had come. I clawed at the snow, desperate for anything to help my obtain my freedom. There was only snow.
I felt my legs soon drop, a poof of snow flying about and soon settling. I had no time to turn. There came a sharp pain, stabbing into my chest from behind and puncturing through. I cried, screaming for relief, my eyes tightly shut. The scream didn't last long. Warm blood bubbled up into my mouth, and I coughed, spitting and painting the snow with red. I couldn't breathe. I couldn't scream. The blood fountain didn't stop, filling my lungs and suffocating me.
Everything went black.
