She was screaming , she was certain of it . There people standing around her , watching and pointing at her while he body ached and her lungs burst . Why were they standing there . . . what had she done ? Her body was shaking , her eyes rolling into the back of her head and , distantly , she could smell the burning of her own flesh . They were watching this , watching as she begged and yet they did nothing .
Laughing , laughing , LAUGHING ! They were mocking her , laughing as she herself screamed , cried , and begged for mercy . " Release me ! " she wished to demand , wished she had the ability to cry out anything but jumbled words of pain . Although she was sure her words would fall upon deaf ears , her cries meant nothing to people who believed themselves in the right — who believed themselves saviors . Were they wrong ? She wasn't sure .
" God , save the sinner ! " they chanted .
Sinner ? Oh no , no , there were many here — everyone screaming gleefully as her flesh melted . She knew they would repent , as all beasts must , and she swore she would be the one to bring about their demise as they brought upon hers . Again , again , again , she'd play this game again ; of course , she knew , she could never win but it was a game she'd come to love . Play it over , and over , and over again . The voice whispered . She intended too , she had no other choice , she would always play the game over again . One day she would be the winner . She could make them suffer in their dreams , drive them all to madness . . . yet she had lost , oh , but how they would still suffer .
Laughter filled the air , growing louder and louder until she felt as if it could deafen her . There were murmurs now , then there were screams . Her throat felt raw , she was sure blood had splattered against her lips but she was certain she was no longer the one screaming . It was they who now screamed , had they seen her body yet ? She wondered if she was still beautiful to them , if her melted skin was still a grace to their eyes . . . her heart pounded wildly in her chest , body heaving as her mouth opened again to gulp in burnt ash .
Oh , she realized then , the laughter belonged to her .
The fire wrapping around her limbs no longer hurt , oh no , now they welcomed her .
When she awoke the first thing she noticed was the pounding in her head , a dull thud against the inside of her skull . She couldn't help the groan that slipped from her lips , green eyes clamping shut as though to block out the brightness of the sun . . . to little avail . Everything seemed like too much and Tomie was concerned that the black spots dancing around her vision would attempt to , once again , send her crashing into waves of forgetfulness . She blinked rapidly , sighing a little as the black spots faded slightly and the brightness of the sun was no longer blinding .
She moved to push herself upwards , cursing when aching limbs simply buzzed with pin-pricks ; ah , she had been here for quite some time if her body had grown this numb . Thinking about it now , Tomie was not sure where exactly here was . Her mind was fuzzy and while her memories were not simply black spots they seemed distorted , as if she were trying to listen to them through water — there was nothing she could make out . She winced slightly , shaking her head to push away the nausea that seemed to bubble to the surface the harder to attempted to see through her own mind .
" Oh G— " her voice cracked slightly , her throat burning as her world seemed to spin rapidly before slowing . The dingo paused , pressing her face against the ground an attempt to push blood into her brain ; why was she so painfully dizzy ? No matter , Tomie did not have time to sit here any longer but . . . well , she wasn't sure if she could make it far from here either .
" Bloody hell , " She whispered , body drawn taught as she finally took the chance to take in her surroundings . Odd , she had not seen the mountains there before nor had she heard the thundering of the sea in the distance ; Tomie must have been too caught up in her own pain. She wobbled slightly as she moved forward , eyes glancing over her shoulder in the direction of the mountains — no , she knew she would have better luck of survival if she found the ocean . She knew it , for she could hear it calling out for her .
