Natalie's POV:

It was dark and empty. Yet somehow it warm to me and I felt natural being here.

I didn't know where I was...but it was really comfortable plus the quiet silence was peaceful.

For some reason, being here felt strangely familiar. I can't point my finger on it but...it's like I usually come here to hide with Nicole.

...Nicole? Nicole!

'Where is she?!' I wondered.

"Nicky?" I call out softly, whispering my twin sister's nickname.

Nothing. My heart thumped.

"...N-nicole?"  I croaked, worried. I uttered her full name louder this time hoping she would hear.

Again, nothing. My heart beated faster than before.

"Nicole...!?" I whimpered quietly, hearing no answer. Nothing. Something shattered inside me.

In this pitch black void, all I head resonating was the sound of my own voice echoing Nicole's name.

It didn't take long for me to realise that she was not here with me. It was then  fear filled my heart, countful dreadful thoughts whirled in my mind.

'...Nicole...!' I thought exasperated.

We've never been apart. Never separated. We stuck together. When our parents died, and debt collectors chased us hot on our trail, we were there, both of us with each other.

And if we were apart or been separated, we always found one another.

'Where was she?!' I thought exasperated.

Just as I internally screamed this, a sudden light invaded my eyes without warning.

Ack, it hurts...!

It blinded me, rendering me senseless.
I tried to look away avoiding it. My body would not follow my mind.

H-huh...?

All thoughts of Nicole vanished as I tried to register my situation.

It was then the dark place I was in started to close in on me. Slowly but surely, the walls inched closer to me.

Wh-what's going on?!

A few minutes later, it felt stuffy and icky. The shadowy black space I was in started to squeeze me.

Mere seconds after, I started to suffocate, unable to freely breathe as before.

I held my breath in hopes of preserving my oxygen. My cheeks hurt when I bloated them for too long.

I gasp as I breathe again, jerking forward. The place seemed to be taking me out to somewhere.

I didn't know where. That scared me. Where was I going??

Frantic voices stricken with distraught
all talked at once which confused me & scared me even more.

"Your nearly there, your Majesty!"

"Keep going, push...!"

"Please hang in there, your Highness!"

WHAT WAS GOING ON?!

I felt myself being pushed out of the closed in, claustrophobic space.

I couldn't understand what was going on but the moment I was freed from the dark place, my eyes opened at once.
