Awakening in the Unknown
Eyes opens in pitch darkness
The sound of muffled voices echos. A sharp ringing noise fills the silence. Breathing is uneven. A distant voice echoes. The air is cold—too cold
???
Hey... Can you hear me?
A sharp inhale. A gasp. Chest rising and falling in uneven breaths. Then—light. Too fucking bright. The world is spinning
???
Blinking rapidly, wincing as his head pounds, gasping, heart racing, eyes darting around the unfamiliar ceiling
???
Touches his chest, his face—his hands are trembling
His fingers twitch against the rough sheets. His body feels heavy, foreign, like he doesn’t belong in his own skin
???
*relieved, rushing to his side*😮💨
???
Sir, you're awake! Thank God! Stay still, you've been unconscious for days!
A woman in a nurse's uniform pressing a hand on his shoulder. His head is spinning. Days? Unconscious? He tries to remember… but all he sees is—blood.
???
*Unconscious? No—no, that’s not right. He remembers something else. Something worse*
???
His eyes widen. He grips his chest—no wound, no pain. Just the phantom ache of a life stolen
???
*internally screaming in mind* I died. I fucking died
???
Sir? Please, don’t move too much
A wave of nausea crashes over him. His pulse hammers. His hands—shaking. He presses a palm against his chest, feeling for the wound—the wound that should be there. The pain. The blood. The cold emptiness that swallowed him whole
???
*muttering, almost in a daze* I… I was stabbed
???
*frowns, confused* Sir?
His breath is ragged. He remembers it too clearly. The betrayal. The sharp pain slicing through his body. The desperate struggle. The fucking horror as the life drained out of him
???
*eyes darting around, voice shaky* This… this isn’t real. I was dead. I was f***ing dead
His head spins. Panic claws at his throat. He grips the sheets tighter, trying to steady his breath. His fingers dig into the fabric, the sensation grounding him. Real. This is real. But it shouldn’t be
???
*gently, concerned* Sir, please—calm down. You’ve been in the hospital for a few days. You were found unconscious near the Han River..
Han River? He never went there. Not before he… died
???
*Swallowing hard, forcing himself to focus* What's my name?
