Inside the void where darkness reigns. Eerie sounds of crying for help reverberate. Suddenly, a circling force of a vortex appeared beside his sea of consciousness, creating a distortion in space. The sounds of crying become more horrifying as they approach his side trying to enter the vortex. And from the center of the vortex, a hand materialized and forcefully sucked his consciousness, alone.
"WAH!" Gerard's eyes snapped open wide, his mouth agape. His body was covered in a cold sweat. His fist clenched his chest tightly as his heart pounds wildly, pumping more blood than normal.
He cautiously scans his surroundings with agitation and noticed it is already nighttime. Fireflies constantly lit up and a cold breeze blew past him brushing his face, and calming his heart a little.
