Suddenly I opened my eyes. Surrounded in total darkness. I hear nothing. Where am I? What happened? Why am I here? I began to look around, slowly finding the possibility to move. First, with the turning of my head, then onward with the shoulders, arms, hands and fingers, my back and finally the whole torso.589Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWR7NspEUOA
Further down my hips, thighs, calves and in the end, my feet and toes. Now that my eyes are accustomed to the darkness, I see soft light from above. Without hesitation, I began to swim to the light. Noticing then there’s the surface; I was all this time underwater? As I reached the surface, I realized the light came from the city that stood tall before its shores and me. But everything looked different, the beaches held no sand or pebbles but firm black metal with green-bluish light that could represent as veins. All the buildings of the city had that same colour and same architecture style as the shores. It gave an eerie effect and appeared very unnatural and well, robotic in my eyes. Knowing I’m in clear conscience, all this felt from its appearance like out of some dream. Slowly and carefully, I walked towards it. Soon I was walking down what seemed to me to be a street, but it was all deserted. I met no one. Yet that green-bluish light was the only thing that provided light. Strangely the only thing that seems natural here is the water and the air. Fore I felt a soft cool breeze blowing through the streets and alleys. Besides the wind and the sound of my steps, there was nothing else to be heard.589Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIYCW1MpvNi
I didn’t come far as I heard a “Pssst.” from some corner. I halted and searched for a face, a person, anyone who made that sound. “Pssst. Over here!” It called from behind me.589Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ps7ZjtfNQ
I turned round to see. There stood before me a young man with a boyish face. He was dressed in some sort of a diving suit all in black with black leather half-boots. His hair was a brown, straight and short cut and his eyes were also brown, dark brown. Before I could do or say anything, suddenly everything went black. I saw nothing but heard everything and was able to move only a bit. Realizing now something covered my eyes and bound me together. Quickly with all my strength, I was able to break my bonds and removed the blanket that covered my eyes. While freeing myself, I heard many voices around me, mostly men but also a few women and children.589Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc34KsrwEWK
“Quickly strap him up! Don’t let it remove the blanket! Hurry we need more ropes to tie it up again! Careful, he might be dangerous! What is that thing? It looks like a man to me. Well to me something dangerous that’s for sure!”589Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡheiSQUK5jD
Once the blanket was removed, I couldn’t believe my eyes. There were more people dressed in black diving suits, men, women and children.589Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeyIGfdBPXa
“Everyone quick run! Hide!” Shouted a man with short cut wavy black hair, immediately every one of them began to run.589Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGpoPDquYaa
“Zzz-tz-buzz. Tz-no-zzrrrr-nnnrrrzzz-harm.” I gave out.589Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv7EtbZWQB5
Placing a hand quickly to my throat. It must have been the water that damaged my voice; strangely, the rest of me isn’t damaged or malfunctioned. I must communicate them, but how when my voice is damaged! The man who gave the order to run was still close to me, holding something in his hands, believing it would shield him from me. Gently as I could, I grabbed him by the shoulders, although he and all those people were two heads smaller than me. So I bent down to have better eye contact with him. He widened his eyes of fear and breathed through his mouth. Slowly I placed a hand over his that pointed to me with something. Knowing he can harm me with it in some way. Pushing it slowly and gently down to the ground.589Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRNlXqFjoUz
“rrttzz-nozz-rrzz-harm” I tried to speak with all my strength, looking into his ocher brown eyes.589Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZLzsoAE3TX
From his look, I saw he is trying to understand me, I hope he doesn’t speak a totally different language than mine. Will he know English?589Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXOkvVh939U
“tzzz-rrrrtzzzzzz-rrrrrrmmmm” That’s it, my voice is now of absolute no use!589Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLSVdBEHUaM
“Papa!” Cried a young boy in the distance running towards the man and me.589Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡllkLnszcEa
“No! Don’t come any closer! It could be dangerous!”589Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOc3XLkev3I
“Papa!” Cried the boy again in tears and his arms open wide to hold eagerly for his father but continued to run. Suddenly he tripped and fell. The man who is also a father wanted to run but stayed and looked up to me with grief. Slowly I walked to the boy and gently helped him up.589Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvKHwc7pik6
He gave a short giggle. “You’re very warm.” Spoke the boy merrily while holding my hand that I used to help him up. I smiled at his notation. Suddenly from behind me, I heard a loud roar, quickly as a reaction I winced together and crouched over the boy in a defensive position. The next a stinging pain was spreading within moments in my whole body, and total darkness went before my eyes.589Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPlRWmhryHT
