“Wha... What happened.” I couldn’t see. Everything was pitch black. As if I haven’t even opened my eyes. The ground felt... wet. It seemed that wherever I was, it was a big, shallow puddle. Maybe an inch deep. “Where am I?” I stood up. “Wait! Where is she?” I looked from one side to the other. Not seeing anything either way.
There was a muffled noise. It sounded like someone shouting a question but he couldn’t make it out. “Why can’t I say your name, —”
“—?” My mouth moved but no sound came out. “—!” I ran in the direction of the inaudible call for me.
I didn’t know what it was but something slammed into my midsection sending me flying backward. I coughed up blood, mixing into whatever fluid was below me. Struggling to stand, I focused my eyes, trying to pierce the darkness before me to discern whatever attacked. Nothing.
I heard a scream. It must have moved on to her.
“—!” Still no noise. I ran in the direction of the cry but was promptly halted when something splashed into the ground before me, it’s musky breath washing over my face. I took a step back. Followed by another. This beast only needed to shuffle forward as I backed away. I turned and ran. The monster easily kept up and slammed me to the ground within seconds, it’s wet foot pressing down on my entire body.
She screamed again. There must have been more. Of them. I was useless. There was no way I could help her or myself. The monster’s pressure on me increased. I frantically tried to claw myself away as the life was slowly squished out of me. My hand found something metal. A handle of some sort. I grabbed it, there was extra weight extending in one direction.
“Is this–” I was cut off as another one of the beasts legs crushed my arm. I felt the bones shatter. The pain was miniscule however, considering what very may well have been occurring not far away from me. I felt the monster’s breath even closer, it’s jaws being only inches away from me. “—... I’m sorry.” I closed my eyes and waited.
Hopeless
