Blood covered his face and body— Ajax experienced true HELL for the first time in his life.

     In the middle of the cave was a large pool of water and at the waters edge was... A silverish bluish flower with four petals sticking outwards. It's stem was long and smooth from the look, and it's sight— a beauty to behold. It was the only flower there so Ajax accepted it to be the herb of full recovery.

     But to get to it, he would have to crawl all the way around the pool of water to reach it— and that was hell!

     Ajax would have to crawl all the way to the flower, which was a hard thing to do— considering the fact that he only had one hand and his spine was one. It was like dragging a half dead body on the ground— his legs proved not to work without the spine to give them the operational function to!

      Pulling his body like a worm on the ground, Ajax set his sights to chase the future that lay behind his choice.

     "GODAAAAAAAMMMMMIIIIIIIIIIIT~!!!!" He gave a great cry that echoed across the empty cave. His body and mind were in— great turmoil.

    His hand shook violently as blood dripped down the many cuts that had been delivered to it from pulling his half dead self across the bristle, cold floor. He could feel every skin on his hand coming off, his nails had already been severed from his fingers leaving the remains of his hand to ooze a thick red fluid.

     "NGGH — ACCK!"

      His cries did not seek to subside the pain yet he did not abandon the thought— it was only after a few minutes had he truly realized the horrible fact of it.

     "This is not a game!" He told himself. "This is hell! What bastard would do this to me and feel happy about it?"

 

     "Is there really nothing I can do—"

     "I swear if I get that flower and nothing happens~!"

     THUD!

     His head met with the cold ground. His breathing was distorted and filled with endless panting. "I-- I can't do this anymore!"

     He had barely managed to make it halfway around the pool and the time— oh yeas the time. Was it still reading?

     —I totally forgot about the time.—

     [TIME REMAINING: 3 MINITES]

     —God, is this for real? Is this a sign from you? Can I really get my old body back? I don't want to become a cripple! I also don't want to die a virgin!—

     With his renewed strength he pushed forward and started to pulled his body across the ground leaving a wet trail of— BLOOD!

     Not long after, his fingers snapped, coming undone at the joints. The next thing was the most painful feeling known to man, neurons fired up into his brain like fireworks and he screamed...

     “AAAAAAAAAACCCCCK!!"

      —GOD! I WANT TO DIE!—

     THUD!

     [TIME HAS ELAPSED]

     [YOU HAVE USED YOU FIRST TRY]

     [YOU WILL BE RESPAWNED BACK TO THE STARTING POINT]

     [PLEASE STABDBY]

      "OH~ SHIT!"
