1 Chapter #1 Void

Huh!!

Huh!! pant!!

The sound of heavy breathing was ringing in my ears. I was in a transitional state. A state of consciousness between wakefulness and sleep.

"Wake up!!"

Some middle-aged lady in her 40s with white hair tried to wake me up. I couldn't remember but I knew her from somewhere.

uh!! uh!!

"Wake up!! Don't you wanna see her again."

Hearing these voices at the back of my ear as I was gaining conscience.

I opened my eyes, only to find myself in this unknown place. I was lying in this unknown world with no sight of light. A dark void as if I was trapped in a black hole.

I tried to remember the events that had happened. Events That led me here but all the memories were faint.

"What is this place?"

This situation, this feeling of anxiety, unease and nervousness must be similar to when the first humans Adam and eve, landed on earth for the first time. Walking into an unknown world, unaware of gifts and danger this world had to offer.

I was experiencing a similar event in this new unknown world that I have ended up in a search for her.

      I tried to stand on my feet only to fell on my knees. At that time I still hadn't been able to fully gain my senses. I fell on the ground shaking, extremely weak to even stand up but still, I had tried to stand.

      I would say that things like these are normal for a human because of their nature. It is natural for a man to be hasty. They try to speak when they are still infants, they pray for struggles to end before it had even begun. That's how they were, are and may even be in the future.

Now that I think about it this world is like a final test. But at that time there was nothing I knew about this timeless void.

With temporary memory loss, the only thing that I could remember was that I was searching. Searching for my destiny. The destination that my fate was leading me to. And she was was my destination.

   "Even If I have to travel across dimensions I will find you. "

The eco less sound was a source of energy for me. They helped me gather strength, but that strength was only enough for me to stand up. My legs were still numb.

    With little fear in my trembling voice due to the pressure of being in that dark black void, I spoke as loud as I could

    "Is anyone there?"

Thinking that someone might answer all my questions. Why am I here? where am I? what is this place?

     But sadly there was none to answer. This cry of mine didn't even return to me as an echo, describing emptiness of this void. Sound of my beating heart, lungs and even most tin of muscle fibre, I could hear them all.

"Am I dead? Is it some kind of reincarnation?"

But still, there was a complete pause.

I spoke to myself again in the act of breaking this stillness but subconsciously mumbled these words as some blinks of memories flashed before me.

   "But I can't afford to give in this time, I have to tell her."

   I spoke as if trying to strengthen myself but luckily this act of mine had a good effect. It provided me with much-needed strength. With memories of her flashing before my eyes, I found the fire in my heart. This spark filled the void in my heart. All the emptiness of my heart was gone, only thoughts of her remained. These feelings of wanting to see her again suppressed all other emotions. My trembling heart finally found its only source of courage.

    At that moment I witnessed the first natural phenomenon of that world that I would come to understand later on.

     A beam of light shined in that dark void as if trying to show me the path to my destination.

This glow seemed like hope. The confidence I needed. As a that had strayed from its path moth, I chased this beam of hope.

      That beam was like a single ray from the sun that comes after years of darkness.

     It felt as if I was waiting for this phenomenon. Waiting for some miracle, I understood completely that this light would lead me to her.

Hope that I would see her again this was the only thing I needed to move forward.

     Every fibre of my muscles danced to the tone of my beating heart as I ran towards hope, the hope that I would see her again.
