Chapter 5: The Void

He sat there for a long time all by himself. There were only two things he could think about, those two things were the man chasing him but most important to him was worrying if the man had come for his toys and if he had stolen them. He started worrying about that so much he wanted to go fight the man forgetting his fear of the bright man before. Felix tried to find an exit but only saw darkness. He reached his hand out, but only grabbed the nothingness of an empty void. Then there was a light, but he could not reach it. It seemed as If the light was getting closer. At this time, he had forgotten the bright man and only thought about his belongings. Felix tried to run to the light, but his feet did not touch anything. It felt as if he was floating in the air. The light continued to get closer. The light started making noises, but Felix was too caught up in his thought of escaping and getting to his possessions, he did not hear it. Suddenly the light got brighter. The bright light caught Felix's attention again. The bright light triggered his fear again because he remembered the bright man. Instantly Felix was overcome with fear and rage. He feared the bright man but also thought that the bright man had come for his toys. He yelled at the man saying, "Leave me alone." The bright man only replied with "I have come for you Felix." As more and more anger filled inside Felix he yelled "What do you want with me." Again, the man replied only with "I have come for you Felix." Felix started to cry thinking that this man might kill him. The bright man said to Felix "Why are you crying." Felix only stared at him, tears dripping from his eyes. Felix then said, "Please just do it, I can't take it anymore." The bright man said to him "I have not come here for that; I have come here for you... Felix." Felix tears started to fall less as he didn't understand the man. The man said, "Felix stops crying, I have not come here for that." Felix eyes still watering replied with "Then what have you come here for, I have nothing except me and my belongings." The man started to shine brighter, He looked at Felix in pity. The man said to him "Look at yourself, look what you have become." At first Felix did not understand the words the man had said. For Felix had been in the grey town so long that he had forgotten his life as a human. Suddenly the man disappeared and in his place was a large mirror. Felix looked in the mirror only to see a short, selfish, and uncaring man covered in tears. Felix asked out loud in a sniffling voice "is this me, is this that I have become?" There was no response, only darkness all  around  him.
