I was out of breath, my ribs were on fire, regardless, I kept running for the lift.
Ava was already on the lift. "Kai!!! Hurry it's right behind you!!" she sobbed. I knew
this was a bad situation, Ava was always so distant, hiding her emotions. I was a few
yards from the lift gates when i felt a searing hot pain from my left shoulder to my
waist. " SHUT THE GATE" I hollered "But-" Ava began to protest "SHUT THE HELL UP
AND DO IT" I demanded. She pushed a button in the lift and the gates slowly began
to move towards each other. Just like I'd thought (hoped) the doors were rust eaten,
and the doors were taking longer then they should to close. I used my last bit of energy.
and bolted towards the doors and dove into the lift. I spun around and forced the doors shut
and pulled the lever to rise the lift. The old, scarcely used, rusty gears slowly creaked to life.
It was then that i saw what was chasing us. It had the shape of a human, but it was naked,
it had no male or female body parts and no face. Where it's arms and legs should have been,
there were large masses of flesh colored tendrils. It lifted its arms and the tendrils
extended and snaked through the gaps in the gate. At that moment the lift shot up, the ends
of the tendrils were cut off. Ava screamed and I jumped. The tendrils shrunk and blackened as
if they were in a fire. Faster then I thought, the lift slowed to a halt. Rather then the gate opening,
the wall behind us opened. We both turned around and gasped. The door opened to someplace outdoors
instead of in the chapel (?how did I know that?) The light was a sickly red color there was no sun or moon
overhead. Outside, as far as the eye could see, death and destruction, pestilence and war. A tower miles
away seemed to be the source of all of it, even this far away I could feel evil radiating from it. I shut my eyes
as tight as I could. When i opened them, I was standing on the tower. Somehow, I knew this was all my doing.
The death, the war, I was to blame for all of it. I snapped my eyes shut.
When I opened them again, I was awake, lying in my bed covered in sweat.
