The Shift
Daniel tried to stand, but he couldn’t. His body felt heavier than normal, even though he didn’t felt the slight bit of tiredness. Strange. What was going on? And what was wrong with his waist? No matter what he did, his body refused to bend up the right way. Daniel tried to move, but he could also notice that some body parts were not responding as they were supposed to — heck, he couldn’t even feel his fingers and toes.
His vision felt wrong, as if the reality itself had been distorted. At first he thought it was just because he was feeling dizzy, but the blurriness never really went away. It just stayed there, and Daniel couldn’t shake it off. Why was this happening to him?
The boy had accidentally inhaled some fumes, and it caused him to let out of fit of cough. Strangely, the sound that came out from him was so unnatural that he didn’t even recognized it when a screeching sound came out instead. To be honest, it startled him. What the hell was going on? This was getting creepier and creepier. If this went on, he did not think he would last much longer!
