"Huf... Huf... Huf... Huf!"
In the darkness and void, I was fleeing with all my strength, though I didn't know what I was running from. I only knew that I had to escape. I must escape... I must escape to live!
"You can't run any longer."
It felt as though a dragon roared from the void, and as my heart pounded like a rabbit's, I continued to run. I didn't know where I was running to, but everything seemed like a copy of each other. So I just ran randomly, using all my strength to escape from the claws of the entity pursuing me.
"You can't run away from me!"
The entity roared again and appeared right in front of me. Its claws emerged before my eyes, and I watched them in slow motion with my widened eyes.
"Haah! Huh, damn nightmare."
