Minako's P.O.V.
Wake up! Wake up! You need to wake up! Hurry!
“Who's there?” I ask, my voice echoing around me in the dark abyss.
Wake up! Wake up! Hurry! Hurry!
“I' m already awake.” I look around before clutching my arms, the temperature dropping rapidly, the air gets thinner, making it hard to breath. “What's happening?” My body shakes before going numb, my hands shoot to my throat as my airway is suddenly cut off.
Wake up! Hurry! Wake up! Hurry! the voice comes again.
I can't breath! I blink as my surroundings became blurry and wavy, almost as if I’m underwater. “I'm drowning!” I try to cry out, but when I open my mouth the icy water fills my lungs. The pressure builds and my lungs begin burning and a chill overcomes my body. I feel like I’m turning to ice from the inside out.
Wake up! Hurry! the voice cries again and again, beginning to sound distant.
...must...ur...ke...up! the voice makes one final struggle before everything goes silent and the voice disappears.
My vision fades and my mind goes foggy as my sight dims. This is it, I’m going to die.
No more. Someone please help me. No...more...
Wake up
There’s a flash of light above me and a pale hand reaches out. I raise my hand with the last of my strength and grab on. I sense something dark appear below me as the hand pulls me up into the light above me. Warmth spreads throughout my body and my lungs burst into action, breathing in fresh air. I open my eyes, fuzzy blobs fill my vision as muffle sounds cloud me mind. I close my eyes again, relaxing into the softness beneath me.
You have a job
I snap my eyes back open as an unseen voice speaks with force and urgency. My vision focuses and a white ceiling appears above me. Something grabs my hand startling me, I jerk slightly and I look over to a familiar face...a comforting face.
Yu's P.O.V.
My body felt so heavy, as if it was being held down by a strong unseen force. As I was getting my bearings straight I realized I was lying back on a cold, hard floor. The room was dark and it felt empty, almost as if the room didn't really exist. I couldn't remember where I was, the only thing I could remember was getting on a train. I must have fallen asleep...but I don't remember being tired enough to fall asleep.
The dark room suddenly filled with an eerie echo of laughter. I looked around trying to see who was laughing but the room was still empty, but it sounded like a large crowd of people were laughing at me, watching me. Suddenly the floor beneath me dropped and I squeezed my eyes shut. The laughing got louder and soon began to fill my head. Hands reached out under me and grabbed my wrists and ankles.
Shadows! I thought tensing up. “Izanagi!” I tried to call out to no avail. I couldn't feel my persona anymore. I tried to pull away from them but my body refused to move. Another shadow reached up and slowly wrapped its tentacle around my throat. I let out a gasp as something cold and wet appeared beneath me. Water. The invisible laughter disappeared but the hands continued to hold me down as the water continued to slowly rise. The water was ice cold and my body began shaking. I kept called out to Izanagi but he didn't answer me.
I gasped in shock as the shadows jerked me down into the water, laughter starting up again sounding louder than before as mask that appeared to be laughing popped up around me. My lungs filled up with water and made me start coughing underwater. I closed my mouth against the foul tasting water. The shadows pulled me back up and I spat out the water and breathed in lungs full of air. I held my breath as the shadows pulled me back down into the water. I held my breath and forced my body to relax, I couldn't waste my little oxygen with being tensed. My muscles loosened and my heart rate slowed down but I was still only able to hold me breath for a couple of minutes before my lungs began to burn from the lack of oxygen. I squeezed my eyes shut and willed myself to hold on a littler longer. The laughing got louder and louder before it suddenly went silent. I opened my eyes and I knew what little color, if any, that I had left in my face drained away.
Large silver eyes stared at me from within the darkness, The water had gone still and the shadows let me go, disappearing into the water's depths. My heart rate quickened and then it suddenly stopped, leaving me for dead. Suddenly the eyes disappeared and large teeth appeared, snapping shut around me.
