I had lost the battle as I finally slipped off into another dream. the dream playing like an old film brimming with static. The trees blocked out the sun as I moved forward. An assault rifle close to my chest, I swiftly slipped behind one tree after another. Each time motioning for my team to advance with a salute. their faces were hidden from site. a mask of Swirled flesh were their faces should be.
Obscured voices muddled together as they talked. the humidity causing us all to sweat profusely while we made our way to our unknown objective. I Realizing something was a miss as we came to a break in the trees, I came to a stop, while my team flew past me in a hazy slow motion. one by one they slowly faded into the trees. A thick dark conapy of rainforest surrounded me on all sides. I stood there alone, the world began to take on a red hue. Slowly, clouds began to block out the rays of sunshine.
I looked up at the sky, the cool droplets of rain began beadimg down my face and my held out hands. The water pooling in them as I looked on. It was thick and warm with a scent of cooper as it rippled from the center. The Realization hit me That this was the blood of my comrades. i tossed the pool in my hand in disgust and shock. Wiping my hands on my pants in a futile attempt to cleanse them of their blood. I stood there limp, soaked head to toe as the rain poured down. filling the forest as if to drown the world. their nameless graves all now circling me as if to blame me for their deaths. The river of blood now at my waist and quickly rising, I held my breath preparing for the red sea to engulfed me. All reason falling away as I drowned dying in a pool of their blood.
There was no pain. There was no death. There was only silence.
...
Gasping for air, I snapped back to the real world. my heartbeat racing from another insane nightmare. This better not be a thing. I for one vote for at least one good dream before this is all over. i stood up light on my feet. The dire situation came back to me in and instant as I grabbed my chest.
"It doesn't hurt"!? I yelled in absolute amazement. Pulling up my shirt the blackened bruises that should of been there had mostly vanished. I pushed down on my once shattered ribs expecting unbearable pain. Instead i was greeted with a dull ache of any normal bruise."what?" I asked out to the empty space in confusion. my air ways clear as I took in another deep breath. a new fear overtook me as I connected the dots. I began to Throw containers of rotted food off the shelves in a fit of rage. "what did they do to me"!, the realization that they made me into a monster as I gripped the sauce shelf.
Letting go I backed up against the wall, pushing my long black hair up over my head with both hands as I tried to think. Was I going to be one of those things? If so how long did I have? My subconscious telling me what I already knew. If that were the case, if im really going to end up like them. Then, I should just end it right here.
I lifted the gun turning it in my hands to stare at the barrel. It had saved my life once before and it'll do it again right now. Holding back tears I placed the gun in my mouth clamping my teeth down over the shaking muzzle. every fiber in my body resisting as I fought to pull the trigger to no avail. I screamed out loudly as my fingers finally gave in.
Click... Click. Click.
The clip was empty as I pulled the gun from my mouth." I can't believe I almost..." I said my chest heaving slowing. The dread subsided, I realized what I almost did. I holstered the empty gun laughing, my vision blurred by the tears. I took a step pushing off the the cold steel wall of the fridge. "i cant even die properl...".
BOOOOOMMM!!!
The wall behind me gave way as i spun towards the sound. Cut off from even finishing my last train of thought. a pair of giant bloody fist had torn the wall apart like paper lifting me off the ground. My feet dangling as they pulled me through the dusty cloud that was once the back wall. Choking on the dust, I was greeted to the glowing red eyes of mr. Muscles.
A grin spread across its face revealing yellow crusted teeth as he revelled in his catch. Giant maggots squirming in the rotted flesh in each gap. His warm rancid breath warfting over me as he breathed. it felt like time dragged on forever as mr. Muscles began to force his fist shut. My bones creaking under the stress forcing a pitiful shriek to make its way out of my mouth. My dangeling legs frantically kicking on their own. the pain became more and more unbearable.
ba bum. Ba dup. ba bum. Ba ba dup ba bum ba dup.
the audible sound of My heart beat sky rocketed as the blood coarsed through my veins. Any second now he would pop me like a fine bottle of wine. The heat deep within boiling me alive as our skin touched. The bare flesh that made contact sending a vulgar wave of energy up my arm. It felt as if something was festering under my flesh as I desperately fought to break free. Suddenly a miracle happened the foul wave was gone as my arms began to budge. A gap formed giving me a gasp of air as I sucked it down desperately.
arrrgh!
Mr. Muscles railed as he chattered his teeth. Displeased withy new feat of strength. I strained to push back his death grip. His palms now completely separated as I struggled to hold him at bay. Still hovering off the ground the weight lightening every second. I felt strong, every muscle in my arms bursting with raw power. I crooned back mockingly as I pushed off rocketing to the ground. His fist slamming shut with a deafening sound as they clamped together. my head barely missing his vice, i made contact with the floor in a crouched position.
An opening!
I shifted my weight as I pulled my arms in. steadying myself for the finishing blow I took a step forward. Pulling my arm back further, I prepared for an uppercut. I made my move as i catapulted my fist upwards at my nemesis. My fist had found its mark., The punch landing vertically into his peculiarly large six pack . with a loud oomph! Mr. Muscles was lifted an inch off the ground.
my piercing death glare slipping away into shock as my fist completed its movement. The force of the blow more than I could of possibly imagined. muscles fumbled back, a gruesome crater where my punch landed mere seconds ago.
The battle was finally over....
