[MNIM] Part 8: Run.

[lunitariaprime]

I tumbled through the void again, pain coursing through my body.

I saw corridors and hallways again.

I felt something behind me as I stood in an intersection.

Instinct took over, despite the pain in my body.

It felt like I was running very slowly, hearing sounds from behind me in the enveloping dark.

I shunted the pain away, something deep inside took control.

My brain made me swerve past obstacles or over them.

I felt fingers back there, eyes, thousands of sickly green orbs.

I lost myself in the action, the movement of limbs and feet, this wave of euphoria swallowing my sight.

I was aware of a room briefly and a door slamming behind me, and darkness.

The dark of a world as yet undiscovered by star or sun or moon.

I laid on the cold, welcome ground.

My eyes closed.

My body told me I was not alone in that place, but consciousness left me behind.
