PAYDENS POV

Ringing.

That's all I hear.

No.

Please no, this can't be real.

Once I see Noah's limp body fall to the floor, a horrified scream escapes from my mouth.

But as quickly as that scream came, Im interrupted by a sharp pain coursing through my body. Due to the sudden and intense pain, I feel the world around me start to get darker. I immediately feel the pain become too overwhelming, and become short of breath.

"Noah." I whimper, as I see blood pool all around him.

I suddenly feel myself fall to the ground.

Upon landing on the ground, I feel myself start to come in and out of consciousness. I immediately start to panic as Im beginning to feel pressure taking over my whole body. It feels as though someone is putting all of their body weight on my chest.

As I'm trying to move in any way I can, I see a blurred figure hovering over me, mouthing something to me, but I can't tell what the figure is saying. All I hear is that ringing.

I then feel myself being picked up, and moved. I then hear faint, muffled sirens, and mumbled talking. I quickly start to feel my eyes get heavy.

"Stay with me." I hear someone say.

But I cant. It's too hard.

I hear people talking loudly to one another, the thought of opening my eyes, and seeing what's happening, scares me.

It hurts me.

Then I'm pulled back to sleep.

Once I open my eyes, I see this tunnel of bright light. Its truly beautiful.

It seems as though its leading me somewhere, but where?

Do I follow it?

After a moment of thinking, I decide to take a few steps. As I get closer, I feel a peace of serenity wash over me. I feel calm in this moment. I feel loved. I feel as though nothing in the world could ever hurt me.

As I walk closer, the light gets brighter, its so bright I have to squint my eyes. I take one last step, and the stellar light pulls me into the vacant void.

But then suddenly, I feel like Im being pulled to the opposite direction of the light. I feel as tho my body is trying to take me somewhere.

One moment I'm consumed with a bright light, the next, I see a bunch of surgeons at an operating table, operating on 2 patients.
