The Raven :: 1.05

Take stock…  I’ve been bound to a large stone slab.  A well dressed gimp laughs at me while some crazy woman with white eyes hovers over with what looks like a large arrowhead.  Oh yea, I’m also naked.  This has got to be some sort of dream I’m going to have to talk about in therapy…

“Too long, too long have I waited to draw forth a life with this most ancient of artifacts,” Lilly rambles to herself, or at me, I’m loosing track.

“Wait!  Stop!  Don’t!  What!?!?”, I find myself pleading even though this has got to be a dream.

Isn’t it?

She straddles me.  The stone arrowhead draws across my chest, splitting the skin.

For a moment I wait to open my eyes and find I’m laying in bed, gotta get up for work in a few hours.  But instead, I feel pain.  Pain unlike that which I’ve ever felt before…  My chest, my insides, burning as she slashes away at me.  I smell blood.  I can even see steam rising…

I have become nothing more than an unwilling observer of my own death.
