The beginning

  She was asleep? Or not asleep, She was aware… time seemed to pass her by without ever acknowledging her existence. She knew she should care. She should try to wake up, maybe, but nothing she could do changed her ceaseless floating. She tried to remember something… she was a person, she wasn’t nothing, but the nothing around her seemed endless., and it wanted her to join it in its nothingness. She should simply fall asleep and let herself unfold into a nonexistent state where she doesn't have to worry about anything. But she did have things to worry about! She wasn’t dead… Was she? In her mind pain flashed, a crash maybe? A bus or a truck perhaps crashing into her? What was a bus? The darkness tried to close in again, but she couldn’t let it! if she let it lure her to sleep then she wouldn’t exist anymore! she wanted to keep existing. She struggled against the oppressive feeling of non-existence, her will slowly being chipped and ground away. Soon there would be nothing left of her… She couldn’t even remember her name, or the reason she wanted to exist, but she did want to exist. She just had to keep fighting and not be lured into sleep…

  Then she woke up, A flash of light appearing before her and elongating into a glowing blue rectangle. Was this the salvation she had been hoping for?

  Well that was hardly a choice at all was it? While she wanted to sit here and debate her options she could already feel her consciousness fading while reading the message. She didn’t want to dissolve into some void. She looked at the bottom end mentally agreed, wondering if she would regret this. Before her could wonder too much she was swallowed back up by the darkness.
