A DARK FIGURE APPROACHES FROM A GREAT DISTANCE. PT 1

A dark figure approaches from a great distance. You can't make out any physical characteristics of the being as it is so far away, but oddly you feel comforted by its impending arrival. How long will it take? In your mind you have plenty of time to contemplate the scenario and what the future may hold. Perhaps an old friend that has been searching far and wide for you has finally reached a successful end to their quest, but are too weary to speed up their progress? Or maybe it is a villain looking for their next victim to prey upon? Yet, you feel no danger as the figure is getting closer. Close enough to make out small details. Around the edges. Flowing fabric? Hair? You wonder if it is even human. A slowly advancing blob of flowing parts that is without a doubt taking steps(?) directly towards you. There is still no color to be seen on the advancing mass. Only endless depths of black and blacker that give no hint of a shadow, and those flapping wisps stretching and recoiling wildly in all directions around the perimeter of the shape. What shape is it? Your eyes strain to see more. But before your pupils can focus on any new details it is your ears that pick up something. A low hum. You become entranced by the drone as its volume increases perfectly in time with your incoming still unknown and unidentified guest. The hum reverberates within you. Down to the muscle and bone. To the core of you. The noise intensifies to a wall of sound that floods you with a warm calm feeling from head to toe. The light you once were naturally bathed in just a few moments ago dims to a darkness that matches the figure that has suddenly and mysteriously arrived within your reach. If only you could get a grip on your own being to make a gesture of greeting! The anomaly of darkness, with its flapping extremities, is presented before you in all its glory. Towering over you with nothing but the deafening hum vibrating your innards that you are sure have turned to mush by now. You focus hard to stay alert and grasp what it is that has come to you. Why has it made this journey and why have you even lingered to get to this point? It's so dark. Vibrations. Trembling. You hope silently for a drop of blue or violet or green or any color from the spectrum to get through the enveloping darkness to give the scene life or meaning. Suddenly, the hum gives way abruptly as complete and utter quiet rushes in. You see a change at the center of the monstrosity. A piercing bright yellow light sears out of a miniscule opening and lands directly on your forehead. Cold and with force. It is a pin hole of hope for understanding. The yellow light expands as the hole opens wider like zippers expanding in all directions until you are bathed in the cold light streaming directly onto you. From the brightness within a small face emerges. The most generic human face, and no distinguishing features to be concerned with. The light is too bright behind the face to see if it connects to some sort of body within the outer endlessly flailing vessel. Or even if it has a neck to support the bland eyes, nose, and mouth. Nevertheless, the face snakes it's way through the air and stops across from your own. The face slowly moves forward while folding in on itself. You prepare for a kiss. But feel nothing and with perfect alignment it attaches itself like a sealant covering your own eyes, nose, and mouth. Like a human sticker that is planted face first onto your own. Soft and seamlessly becoming part of you. At this point it is impossible to fathom what you resemble now, but you don't care because through the reverse eye holes all is revealed.
