40

A piercing headaches came hitting me like a truck, the feeling was atrocious. I heard rigging in my head and trembled from the pain.

I tried moving my position

What...

I tried but... my body wouldn't obey me

The pain was so overwhelming that I couldn't think about anything, terrible waves of pain would assault me and my body would feel like a hammer hitting me all the way down to my spine and crushing every single bones in my body

The pain was atrocious, I couldn't concentrate

The pain went on for a while, all my senses went numb for a while and only suffering was felt. I wasn't even sure anymore if the burning feeling on my cheeks was from tears or blood.

After some times, my body stopped trembling from the pain and my other sensations came to me little by little starting by the smell and taste

I hadn't realized it but from the very beginning I was breathing dust, my mouth touching the ground and inhaling whatever could make my lungs work, I instinctively started to cough atrociously making my pain worsen every time I cough like waves of hammer hitting me. Once again I felt the burning sensation of tears rolling down my face.

My mouth was dry and my mind empty

The second sensation I started to recover was the one of hearing, I wasn't able to focus on anything my body could intercept because of the pain blurring it all, but now I could hear some 'clink clank' sound, just like chains, large chains. Some whimpering, coughing and a lot of groans. It looked like there was quite a lot of people here too.

What was happening exactly

I couldn't remember quite clearly what happened, just some blurry memories but when I tried to remember more, a wave of pain came, assaulting me

Due to the pain, the sensation of feeling came a lot later because of the pain overwhelming any other touching sensations, even then I couldn't move my body even less my eyes, like petrified, a true nightmare.

My left arm, which I had all my weight on, felt like millions of ants swarming on it, the cold but tight handcuffs hurt my wrists and ankles, they were so heavy and the piercing pain made me wince.

My jaw started to tremble on its own, unconsciously

And my hand flinched, like some kind of tic

My throat was hoarse from the inhaled dust and new coughs came with its friend, the headaches

Which made me breath unconsciously almost like choking, which create a vicious circle of pain

How much time had it been since I regained consciousness? I was not sure, in fact I wasn't sure I was conscious right now, it all felt so unrealistic. And sensations gradually coming back to me made me loose my sense of consciousness long ago.

The more time passed, the more my touching sense started to get back, and now I could move a bit the tip of my finger and make some subtle move, just by millimeter but better than before.

From the context of those chains and feeling. I was definitely drugged, so kidnapped. And judging from the sound of other captures, we were kidnapped. I don't recall much of what happen though, I think I was at the festival? I was moving, or more like running? Why? Was I running away from my assailants? The hit that took me out was definitely from a large and heavy mass to the head, I may have a cerebral commotion, I have to be cautious about it. Some hotness, stickiness at my nape, I got blood flowing out of my injury probably, or it may be just sweat. And with the drug fed to me, it could cause drastic change of temperature and maybe cause a fever which would explain the cold and hot sweats felt all over my body. The stress I'm undergoing right now could cause disorientation and maybe hallucinate some feelings, the drugs may even be the reason I'm under so much pain, and the nonstop trembling seems to be a consequence of it too.

It doesn't look good at all, but other than my head, my body doesn't seem to have any other wound. Now that I think about it... I feel so...icky, what I'm wearing is definitely full of mud and dust, my hair and skin too, the ground is far from being confortable, it's hard and itchy.

My left arm, supporting my full weight is completely numb, I can't feel it. I was on it for too long now, I will have a hard time getting back sensation in this arm, hell, the first step is even being able to move away from it.

My full body is hurting and aching, I can only bite the inside of my mouth to blood, the vibrant taste of iron makes me a little bit more hydrated.. if I could say so. It was a thing I did to 'slap myself in the face' kind of thing

I tried opening my eyes, my eyelid were heavy, heavier than anything I would have imagined. I tried and tried until my right eye lift only a bit for me to see my eyelashes trembling, I didn't see much but it was enough for the moment, it meant that my condition, whatever I was in, was getting a bit better

My headache was still piercing my skull like a smashing hammer but at least the person smashing the hammer on my head was getting a bit lighter.

...Ah fuck- what am I even saying, that headaches is the worse I ever got, I feel like an immense pressure wants to make my head explode.

After all of those efforts I made for hours... I think so? I mean I know that when you suffer, time goes by so slowly but feel like eternity. So maybe all that suffering actually only lasted 10 min... I hope not, I would prefer to tell myself that what I endured went for a longer time. Well anyway all these efforts made me waste so much energy, even with the piercing pain, my consciousness slipped away.

...

What-?

What am I doing here?

Wasn't I captured at some atrocious place? Why am I at the flower field...? Would I be able to get to the house if I ran toward it?

At the thought, my feet slowly started to sink in the ground. Strangely enough, it wasn't uncomfortable, I wasn't stressed about it. Only the fact that I was here made me calm. Was it a dream? Or maybe the dream was being captured? Or more like nightmare to be more accurate.

...No. It wasn't something simple such as a nightmare, that kind of pain is still engraved in my body, down to my bones.

So why am I here?

I turned my head to look around me.

Flowers, it was all there was. Beautiful ones though

Like mesmerized I bowed down and touched a beautiful navy phantom like flower. Instantly flowers came blooming on that arm rapidly spreading onto my body until it covered me completed. I lost my balance and felt like I started to float.

My body disoriented, didn't know if I was falling or flying. Suddenly I extended my hand and..

A piano note resonated

Uh-? A piano note?

I extended my other hand and the flowers covering me exploded and fell all around me as another sound resonated.

There I was, hands on a piano, still in the field of flower. But now there was a piano, the most beautiful I've ever seen, just in front of me, why and how was it there? I don't know but like a completely natural thing to do, I sat on a bench, when did it appeared? Not sure either. My fingers felt the piano and its relief from all corners. It felt so right.

I looked at the sky. The sky dyed in a dark blue lightened by the big full blue moon making the sky almost pale. A light breeze passed thought the air and went to kiss my pale skin.

My hair danced in the wind and my gaze came back to the piano

I breath what felt like the purest air and hit a note, the sound reverberate in the entire sky and multiples other notes harmonized together as if they were always made to be together.

A song I never heard but still felt like I knew it since birth. The feeling of sounds vibrating to the ground. The electrifying sound flowing and dancing like music muse from one ear to the other.

I felt the music from all sensation, goosebumps all over my body from the ethereal sound. My blood felt like flowing to the rhythm of the music and the feeling of flowing fingers never ending on the piano.

I could see the cords inside the piano getting hit by the hammers and the resonating sound coming out of it felt like fresh wave. Explosions to the ears

My hands continued to dance on the notes, flowing, embracing the music to make it flow like electricity to my entire body. My feet pushing the pedals as the sound of the same notes changed from different types of resonance.

Small tears started to dropped on the piano making it looks like a drop of water hitting a calm lac.

Every sound made from the piano resonated with the flowers all around the field and rains of petals were dancing around like little fairies.

My movements were fluid but not exaggerated, just so... ethereal. My hands which switched immediately from slow to fast, from one hand to the other. The difficulty was definitely great but... the music was possessing me, it was flowing through my veins, I wasn't the one creating the music. It was the music creating itself thought my body.

I hit the last notes, resonating thought this entire universe. Like the biggest wave of all time, as the music came to an end, like millions of angel's voices harmonized perfectly making my heart skip a beat in pure amazement.

What was that...

I looked at my hands and a flower symbol gripping all my arm down to my hand , both arms, came into view.

What
