How long has it been?...Ugh, I can’t remember anymore. After the sixth ‘try again’, honestly I’m better off practicing on my own. Also, why the hell is he doing this? It’s just a vertical slash?... So why do I have to repeat it like it’s some complex technique. I came to understand how to go about practicing the Festival of Blades technique and then this is happening. Why did Roberts have to do this to me? Couldn’t he have rejected? The fucker just had to drop me off with the captain and even had the audacity to leave while saying, “Have a fun time.” Fun time your head! I should use a vertical slash to open up his head and check what the hell he was thinking leaving me here. Fuck, my wrists are sore. I’m starting to regret taking the initiative. Maybe practicing solo won’t be so bad. “Again!” The Captain’s order came once again. The hell is this? I’m done! Clang The sword makes a dull sound as it fell to the ground. I turned to face the captain with the latter putting
Based on what I understood about the principles regarding meditation, a mental image was required, first and foremost.This image could be moving or stagnant but one needs to be able to focus on that image to truly enter into a meditative state.Of course to get this image, there are those that have it easy.With a simple breath, they could calm their nerves and enter a tranquil state both in body and mind.But with me… it’s a bit difficult.It’s not my fault though… okay, maybe it is.But ever since dad started telling me stories, my imagination was difficult to control.All it would take is a simple word and I would already be trying to figure out what it meant or end up at the very least, making an unnecessary comment.Obviously I didn’t come about this finding of my own Accord, Captain Rodgers was helpful in that regard.Hah, it’s annoying but I have a problem focusing.Sure I could tune out unnecessary sounds and just remain in a world of silence but that won’t work for meditatio
Silence.I found myself in the world of darkness once again.It’s been a while but I don’t remember entering of my own Accord.The last thing I remember…Ugh, what’s with the splitting headache?It felt like a hammer was being used to smash my head.Suddenly, there was a loud scream but I knew it wasn’t from me.It was a bit too high pitched.After that, I began to hear voices.I couldn’t make anything out at first due to how low their voices were but I could tell I wasn’t alone.I open my eyes to find myself staring at the roof.Of course, this was one I was unfamiliar with as it looked nothing like anyone I had seen before.At this point, the voices become clearer and it seems to be coming from quite a number of people.Was it an argument?“Oh, you’re awake.”I turn my neck to find Leah seated next to me with a smile on her face.“Uhhh, Leah, it’s you?”She is about to respond when I hear a jibe aimed at me.“Oh wow, it seems sleeping beauty decided to join us.”I turn over to find a
You’d think that staying in a Tower for your whole life would prepare you for an escape room but yeah…That’s a fucking lie. “Somebody get me out of here!” Thea ( the blonde girl ) screamed. I’m not surprised. I’d be screaming too if I wasn’t following Leah’s lead of meditating. It has been roughly three hours since the start of the trial. I could be wrong but that doesn’t matter. What does is that we have been here for quite sometime. If you aren’t already aware, yeah, the suggestion of the arrogant kid fell through. By the way, his name was Ronald, which I learned of after we were forced to introduce ourselves to ease the tension after we ended up not finding any clues to leaving the escape room. Anyway, Ronald might have an affiliation to one of the Head chefs in the tower. Head Chefs are those that watch over the cafeteria on each floor. They aren’t exactly rich but they are known to be hoarders. Since the distribution of food for each floor passes through them, they are
There was a scream, followed by a thud.I slowly put my head up as the light disappeared like a lie.I look toward the slit but find it closed once again and before it, a body lay unmoving.“Oh my god.”I heard someone comment at the side but right now I was still wondering what happened.What was that light and what exactly was beyond the slit?It was enough to make me gulp at the horrible thoughts that came to mind.Just then I notice Barry walk slowly toward the unmoving body.Based on his movement, I could tell he was scared to approach but at the end of the day, since he decided to be the leader…might as well act as one.I applauded him mentally while preparing for what was to come.He stopped just before the body and knelt down before it.Reaching out, he nudged the face of the body.“Hey, Keith… yo, wake up.” He nudged him once again but there was no response.Was he dead?“He’s still breathing.” Barry remarked as he placed his finger on Keith’s nape.“Then…”“Uhmm, where’s The
Fear.What exactly is it?I ponder on the thought but I get no response.Sure I’ve been frightened once or twice.That’s not new.But unrestrained fear.Mind numbing, tear inducing fear.Fear of death.Fear of the unknown.They plagued me at once and for a moment, I was blank.I wish I had entered the world of darkness…maybe in there I would have escape this.But it’s too late now.All I can do now is prevent myself from vomiting while trying to disregard the goosebumps breaking out on my skin.“You killed her!”I force myself to pull away from the mess of melted skin and settle on the origin of the voice.Lena, a redhead with a slightly busty chest and a thin figure.She was the one that spoke up.And she was calling out Leah.No, why?“I… I didn’t do anything.” Leah stuttered to respond.Lena didn’t let up. “You told us to meditate. You made us drop our guard and now someone is dead. Take responsibility!”“I didn’t do anything!... I thought that if we meditated, we’d be able to figu
“Stop this!” Leah screamed at the top of her lungs causing everyone to pause.All eyes were on her and to be honest, I wondered how she could still speak up considering how dangerous things were about to become.She was about to follow up when Barry cut her off.“That’s enough.”Whew, so you finally decided to mediate. You sure took your time!“Leah… why did you tell us to meditate?”Huh, what kind of question…“Barry, what are you talking about?... You know why.”“I don’t. Two deaths are related to you. You can’t expect me to just overlook that, right?”Wait a minute, what the hell is this guy getting at?Don’t tell me…“Surrender and let us verify for ourselves what you are.”Leah was taken aback as she took a step back.Her eyes were wide open and her chest moved up and down without rhythm .She was definitely scared.“No, wait…”“Stay of this if you don’t want to be considered her accomplice!” Ronald glared at me with bloodshot eyes.What the hell is this?Can’t you guys see what’
You’d think hearing stories about monsters from your dad for half of your life and then reading about them for the remaining quarter would be enough to prepare for a face to face meeting with one of them.Turns out… Yeah, I was wrong.Standing face to face with what I could only describe as an unspeakable entity… was this what they meant?I found it hard to breath and almost impossible to move.It was like I was constricted by some kind of pressure that kept on mounting by the second.Within, my heart pounded aggressively, almost like it were about to leap out of my chest and if I were being honest… the thought of knocking myself out crossed my mind a few times.Of course the fear of what would happen after kept me from doing so.The creature looked me over… or at least, I think it did.Couldn’t really tell considering it didn’t have eyes in the first place.Ah… there it is. Your humanity is already doing the work for me. Now, let that delicious fear spring forth. Master would surely
