4 Awakening

The pain was too intense. He felt as if someone was stabbing him with a dagger. He groaned. His eyes opened. He was in a room, a room devoid of any decorations other than the statue in the corner.

The room did not have any furniture other than the rickety bed he was sleeping on. He felt confused, dazed.

"Where am I", he croaked.

"You are in The Lair"the same voice he had heard earlier said.

"Who are you?"he screamed. Everytime the voice inside his head spoke, he had flares of pain shooting through his scull. It felt as if his head was passed through a compressor.

"I am you", the voice replied,"and I know you don't understand but you will, when you are ready for the challenges that await you". thanks

"What do you mean by challenges"

There was no reply for a long time. It seemed as if the voice was thinking.

"You'll see",it said.
