Calmer now. Still fucking terrified, but thinking much more clearly. It’s amazing how much fear can help you work some clarity into your thoughts once you've managed to tell the panic attacks to piss off.
So after this conversation between my brother and me yesterday, I came to the realization that things are going to be more difficult then I originally thought. This probably isn't one of those labyrinth things that have happened to some of the other bloggers. As I understand it, the labyrinth is all in your head and I strongly suspect that this is not a hallucination. Not going to completely throw out the idea. There's still a chance that I could have been taken out of my home in my sleep and all this really is a hallucination of some sort, but the simplest explanations are usually the right ones. And for now the simplest explanation is that I really am somewhere else. I'm going to run with the idea that this not a hallucination, that way if it is real I don't do something stupid like not fight hard enough if I get attacked.
I saw one a little while ago. Zero's leech thing. It was crawling on the outside of my picture window. It looked at me. And it looked like it was smiling at me. Pretty fucked up, but still a hell of a lot easier to look at then the faceless wonder.
According to Zero's+ pictures I'm supposed to sit here and wait for those things to come crawling out of my walls and chase me out of the house.
Yeah fuck that. I'm not going to sit here and wait for some prediction made by my friendly neighborhood jade thief to come true. I sat around waiting to die once. Not happening again.
Sage, Ryuu, I'll wait a little longer for the two of you to get to my house...or my house in the real world...or my other house...whatever we're calling all this. Sage I really hope you've got some kind of an explanation about what's happening to me. You're the only person I know that specializes in this kind of a mess.
I'll try and give the two of you the rest of today to get there and start working this out. After that, I'm getting out of here. The electricity was working, but now things are starting to flicker on and off. I don't much fancy the idea of being alone in the dark with the possibility of those things getting in. And if those things find a way in, all bets are off. Besides, if there's a way out of this, I don't think I'm going to find it by hiding in the house. I've got a bag packed just in case Zero was a seer as well as a sage. If I do need to leave, I'll try to say something. At least my Blackberry still seems to be working.
We're on the way. Just hold on.
ReplyDeleteHang in there Kay..Your friends are on their way. Don't let Him, or these leeches, or this bizarre fog world defeat you.
ReplyDeleteMaybe - maybe you can make friends with the leeches? Maybe...please...just - I know you haven't yet, and it doesn't seem to be going that way, but please, don't lose hope - and - and you two, Amalgamation and Hakurei, you better save her...
ReplyDeleteSo you are sure this is no hallucination..I must admit amazement. I have never heard of anything like this before. Just a question-Have you considered how you might kill, or at least push off, one of these leeches if it did attack you?

ReplyDelete@Schrodinger I'm alright for now. Had the initial panic attack, now it's just a matter of surviving till either myself or one of the other two finds me a way out of this mess.
ReplyDelete@Eternity Not 100% sure that its not a hallucination, but I don't think it is. I figure better to treat it as real and be prepared for whats coming then to treat it as false and get my ass kicked if it isn't. As far as the leeches, I have a few ideas. The first one being what would any intelligent woman do with the slugs she finds in her garden?
@MS Silly troll you used used up your freebie weeks ago.
Hey Kay! We've been poking around for a while, and we have a few ideas of what's going on. But first I want to test something. Do me a favor and look at the big blank wall above the couch in your living room. Do a spell for clarity or sight if you can.
ReplyDeleteAny way to make a flamethrower? Might help eliminate several of them at once, I dunno. If they're killable like normal leeches that is.
ReplyDelete@Ryuu There is writing on my wall in very large bright red letters. One, yes I am hanging in. Two, how the hell am I seeing that? Three, please tell me that it will wash off? If I manage to get out of this, I can't afford to paint the walls right now.
ReplyDelete^^U Sorry, a sharpie was the only red marker we could fine. But we'll chip in for repairs, don't worry.
ReplyDeleteOkay, you can see it. Awesome. Now write something down next to it, preferably in red or some other striking color.
Done.
ReplyDeleteBrilliant! Okay, this is great. Still have a few things to set up, but I think we should have you out of there by tomorrow at the latest. There'll be a few things we'll need on your end as well, so watch the wall for directions.
ReplyDeleteSee you soon!
