The Sword
You're not sure how long you've been asleep... But something stirs you. Bombs explode in your chest as fear and adrenaline snaps you to your feet, and you find a strange, white sword in your hands. Your eyes struggle to adjust to the sudden light, and the frantic sound of fluttering wings dominates everything else. Searching frantically, your gaze locks onto something in a sea of gray haze. It has the legs and lower torso of a man, but the rest of his body is a halo of hands, all struggling to reach an orb hovering where his head should be. It reminds you of a solar eclipse, and gives off a faint, amber light. His blade is a twin to your own - equal in form and power.
???: "The door is opening."
You blink, and then pain blossoms in your stomach. A white sword branches out from your belly, boiling the blood along the blade, and then all goes black.
Cut. Maim. Sever.
The Sword will open the Door.
The Sword will open the Door.
