New beginning
A bright flare of light, flashed into my eyes, engulfing my entire body to a state of fright, I jolted, suddenly awake in a dark place, panicking. I shivered at the sudden humidity, my surroundings were cold and wet and the air was thick. I fluttered, adjusting to the evening sun before me
and thinking to myself "What the hell threw me up?" Scoffing. Splash, splash, noticing the shallow body of water wrapping my physique, I place my hands down picking up my now-limbered body. I'm guessing yesterday's events must have left my body quite vulnerable. As I began to walk I noticed something felt different about my body it felt bigger, stronger yet my skin even felt tighter, smoother I could see clear as day and my senses were off the charts, and I couldn't seem to figure out where I am, where I was yesterday or anything before for that matter.
Looking at the forest before me, I think I'm just gonna walk in whichever direction until I find something.

After walking a couple of kilometres -which felt like an eternity-, I came to a stop when I stumbled across a cave after carelessly falling whilst I was looking away, yet courageously I got up, brushed the dust off and walked into the cave. Not knowing what to expect as the light obscured behind me, casting even my shadow dimmer by the step, I obstruct a stone after some minutes of stepping in crunchy drying rocks, trying to brace myself I lean forward and submerge my hand in some cooling water, man I miss that feeling, I immediately start indulging the water. My long-anticipated thirst was quenched but that water tasted so good that the bruises I'd gotten earlier no longer hurt, matter of fact I couldn't even feel them. Quickly washing my face, I also failed to notice that I could see clear as day in the dark, the clear water moving and my heart jumping at the sigh of the now steady reflection on the surface of the water, when did I start looking like that, noticing my facial features, my delicate almond eyes, my silky gold brown melanin skin, my full lips and the twisted dreadlocks handing over my face I start to get shivers up my spine as I notice the sensation of something looming and moving over my shoulder and reaching beyond my ear.
The dramatic sound slowly turned around to see a sombre creature growing on him, he backed into a rocky ledge seeking and failing to find balance he fell backing what's too be an abyss, In a short breath he was suddenly engulfed into a thick pillowy blue luminescent substance, he was completely submerged continuously sinking deeper and deeper into this unknown substance which seemed like it was pit, endlessly deep and the pressure building up in my ears. What the fuck? Where am I and what is this feeling? Am I hallucinating, is this a trick? Where am I? Alright let's calm down and think for a second,
