It was weird. From what I can remember – it was me and a girl. I have no idea who this girl was. She was medium height, thin, brunette and green eyed. We were running away from a building where we were originally held at. For what reason, I have no clue.
We crossed a marsh, which came out of no where, she never spoke. It was only me who spoke and made sure she was safe as this escape was executed.
After the marsh was a huge downhill of some sort with a city at the bottom. Lights, cars, buildings – everything full speed. As we looked down the hill the water ran to our right from the marsh until it hit a bridge down by the city. Nothing seems to “odd” yet. Just wait.
There was a fence running up the center of the hill, one side water, the other side – just dirt and rocks. I don’t know who or what we were running from but they didn’t want us going anywhere.
We stood at the top of the hill where the parallel fence started where we stood and continued to the bottom of the hill. It got dark. Real dark, real fast. I looked behind us, and it looked as if a 40ft wave was coming straight at us. I remember big waves from living in huntington beach, so I figured we could live through this, just hold our breath and hold on for dear life to the fence.
So, as it approached swiftly, I told her to hold her breath on the count of three and not let go of the fence. I put my arms around her and clutched the fence, and waited. At the last moments, I counted to three and we held our breath.
No water. Nothing is wet. Nothing hit us.
Our hearts were beating and we were still holding our breath as we waited, and waited.
I finally opened my eyes and saw that whatever it was went right by us. As I looked down the hill, I could get a clearer view of what it actually was.
You know the pipes they put under bridges? The big metal ones with ripples.
It was one of those, but HUGE. It flew right by us and looked like a huge swell in the ocean far away.
As I realized what it was, it became dark again. Another one coming?
I looked back up the hill and sure enough it was another one coming even faster. This time we didn’t hold our breath we just leaned as close to the fence as we possibly could. It went by and I could feel it just brush my eyebrows as it went by. A single drop of blood fell on my arm. It sliced me, but nothing major. But I know that if we didn’t move, it would get us next time. I looked down the hill, and it came to an abrupt stop as it hit a 30ft chain link fence at the bottom, which only slowed its pace as it hit a few small cars and buildings.
Darkness once again. We had to move. I jumped to the other side of the fence. It was coming. FAST. I grabbed the girl at the last moment and pulled her to the other side of the fence where the water was. It went by and destroyed even more down below….
We drifted down the rapid currents and then I woke up….
What does this even mean?
