Chapter 54: Lost
I found myself in the dark. I felt strange. I tried to feel. I tried to tap my chest, but there was nothing there. I couldn't touch anything. My feet weren't on anything either. I was floating, like I was in water. But I as breathing. Or was I? I looked around. The more I strained my eyes, the less a saw. It was just dark.
I tried to will myself to move. I couldn't tell if I was or wasn't, there was no sensation. I gave that up pretty quick. The last thing I remembered was seeing my soul leave my body. Maybe this was it. Maybe this was death. I reeled. I recounted all the events. When I finished, I did it again. When I finished with that, I had nothing to do. So, well... I did it from further back, until I was recounting my whole life. And then I did it again. It was all I had to do. I just contemplated my whole just barely fifteen years of life over and over again. With each iteration, feelings flared to life. With every repeat they grew stronger.
