ForsakenMage Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 It's been a while since I've last written something... "Ordinary" is still on binder paper, being rewritten over and over again... In the meantime, here's something else. :) ~ Blink Introduction This was just another night after a long day on the college campus. My ears and head still hurt a bit from the uncomfortable headphones I had to use in the language lab. I felt like I was going blind each time I stared for a while. A whispy smoke crept into my vision each time I did, soon completely obliterating all sense of color. Each blink gave me just a few seconds of the visual field before the smoke came back. I was tired, I told myself. Nothing is wrong with my eyes. The words on the pages in front of me blurred once more as my eyelids drooped. Sleep was starting to win as the smoke came back in full force. I blinked wearily. What I saw when I opened my eyes couldn't be described as shocking or horrifying. It was most certainly not the textbook I was reading, nor the computer screen I was facing. If a student from the anatomy class saw this, he too would stare in mortification despite cutting up cadavars daily. Who could have set such a grotesque tableau in a fraction of a second? A glance around the surrounding area showed that I was still in the same room, yet that tableau remained when I turned back to where I hoped to see my book and monitor. "What in the..." "I see you've found my gift." I turned around and found an unfamiliar man standing no more than a yard away from me. He wore a clean lab coat. In his pocket stuck out several surgical tools. That smile, those eyes... I got up from my chair, backing away along the table. Blood stained my hands as I crept along, keeping my eyes on him. "Who... who are you and why did you-" "Set such a wonderful display of pure gore? Come now, don't deny it. You've always wanted to see such magnificant works of art." "Wh-what.." My entire body felt cold, I realized then. I stared at my hands. They were so white where the blood had not smeared over yet. Blink. The man was gone. The blood, the horrifying tableau too. Yet I was standing in the middle of the room, stunned. "Hey, you all right, kiddo?" I looked up towards the doorway and saw my roommate looking at me with some concern. "Um yea." I stared at my desk. "Did you see a guy walk out of my room by any chance?" "No. Lost your boyfriend?" "No. I think I lost my brain though." "Check the cadavar room for it then." "Haha, very funny. But seriously, I think someone was in here." "Kid, quit studying and get some sleep. It's almost midnight," she said, leaning at the doorway while stifling a yawn. I sighed. "All right, I'll be there in a few." As I watched her leave, I turned to look at my desk again. For a fleeting moment I could see the tableau flash before my eyes, then nothing but the usual setting once again. I walked back over to my desk, closing my book and shutting down the computer. My hand brushed across something wet and sticky on the desk and I looked down. Blood.
