~ 4 ~ The World ~ 4 ~

The blackness engulfed Tracy, suffocating her senses, closing in around her. Time stopped as each breath labored to be released. The distinction between time and space, life and death, destruction and creation blurred into a singular black mass. In the distance, a glimmer of something white, something to latch onto, fixated itself into Tracy’s mind. It approached in a spirally motion accompanied by a soft buzz, penetrating the blackness like a lighthouse in a storm. As it grew, the crescent shape became discernable and the hum became words:


		What a to do to die today
		A minute or two till two
		A thing distinctly hard to say
		But harder still to do

The sounds emanated from the crescent, which took on the distinguishing charactistics of a smile; opening and closing with the words, glimpses of mountains and stars were visible through the gap.


		For there’ll be a tattoo at twenty to two
		And a rata-ta-tata-ta-tata at two
		And the dragon will come 
		And beat his drum
		At twenty till two till two today
		At twenty till two till two

Closer. Darkness replaced by light. Absurdly brilliant teeth corrupting the field of vision. Every sense in her body demanded that she run, but her body could not respond. With horror she watched as the teeth opened and engulfed her..."what a to do to die today. A minute or two till two..." The childhood tongue twister reverberated in her mind as she emerged in a world so unlike her own it was almost incomprehensible. Stars — something she had only read about in books — shone from the sky; the backdrop against three enormous planets and an eclipse. The mountain she stood upon was covered with lines that all lead to a city in the distance. So much wide open space — something else she had only read about in books. It was clear her path had been chosen. She felt compelled towards the city, and finding her body once again able to move, she headed towards it.
