Blinking rapidly while I woke up I looked around to see what looked like a very messy testing facility with runes inscribed everywhere around me. A woman was speaking to me but i didn’t hear their first few words
“Huh? What was that?” I said tiredly, my mind couldn’t even begin to process what was happening yet and I felt like just going back to sleep. But i looked up at the woman who was speaking with her dark brown eyes and golden hair, each thought making it more and more confusing.
Then I was pulled to my feet with the woman saying to me. “Quickly now, we need your help. Once you help us here you can go free.”
“Wait, am I being kidnapped? What do you want with me?” I harshly questioned as the fatigue faded from so much adrenaline that I could physically feel my senses and muscles change. I knew this was another world though, it was fairly obvious. It was too real to be a dream but too mystical to be reality.
“Look i’m sorry, we didn’t have time to talk i just need you to help us! Please!” The woman pleaded while basically dragging me through the halls then after we arrived at what seemed to be another testing room but much larger but when we walked inside I saw what seemed to be a generator of some kind.
What it attached to was even more shocking, memories of the protector still fresh in my mind, I saw the orb. It was smaller here, but that orb which refused to be seen was right there.
People were working hurriedly almost like their life depended on each and every second suddenly over my pyjamas a robe was put on and i was stood in front of a pedestal of some kind with a crystal ball radiating all different colours engraved into it
So many things had no explanation. A deep dread and confusion settled into me. Then the same woman as before spoke. “Touch the pedestal, and with your own will try to pull what's around you in.”
This made even less sense, and what does that even mean? Pull everything into me? What? But I still did as they said and touched the pedestal. What felt like static electricity made my hairs stand up but no discomfort appeared.
I noticed something around me afterwards however, little particles of the same colour as the tattoos I saw before appeared around me, but whenever i tried focus on them they just vanished
Still these must be what that woman wanted me to pull in right? So I tried it, I tried to pull one in. It felt like a small tug from my very soul and while a small ripple went out from me none of them got pulled in.
but it seemed to be enough as suddenly the pedestal did something and all of the particles gravitated towards me forcing my will and soul to pull in all the particles, then after being pulled through my body they went into the pedestal. All of the equipment suddenly burned to life, shaking the entire structure around me.
“She succeeded already? Alright that's fine, Howard get the body ready. We might actually be able to survive, i fucking hope that they actually try help us but either way they are the only chance we have.” The woman from before shouted while giving orders.
My vision was growing narrower while it felt like my very soul was being ripped apart then suddenly the orb pulsed and it all stopped. The pain, the shaking, even the noise of the people working hurriedly and at the same time I heard what sounded like a massacre of people outside the room we were all in.
Though the ‘body’ that the woman had prepared seemed to be moving now, right where the orb used to be stood that very same body. All the other people were just staring at them.
But unfazed by all the attention they simply stepped down from the elevated platform and reached for a man in front of him. Those same markings from the protector flashed across both the man's body and that being born from the orb then that being simply walked away, but before they could leave the door the woman grabbed the beings arm.
“Please save us.” She pleaded, but the being was simply expressionless.
