The warm blood touched his skin, making him warm and uncomfortable.

Adam's eyes fluttered slightly open, and with a hazy vision, he saw a hole in the ceiling and he felt the soft, dirt ground beneath his back.

"Hey, are you about to die?"

"Eh?" Adam asked, confused.

When he looked over to the side, he saw a silver-dressed woman crouching next to him.

Her face looked obscure as it was hidden by a veil, and her silver hair flowed gracefully over her shoulders like a waterfall.

"Who…?"

"Are you about to die?" She asked again with a voice that continued to echo in his mind long after those words escaped her soft lips.

"I guess…" Adam replied with a rough voice. "I am in pain."

"Want me to take away the pain?" She asked.

"If you can…" Adam said with a sense of desperation and hope in his voice.

"I'll take it away eternally." She reached out her hand towards his head.

"SNAP OUT OF IT!"
