You're in pain, terrible mind numbing pain.
You barely remember anything, the last thing you recall was driving from work, the thought of you reaching home towards your loving wife and new born daughter powering you through a terrible work day.
Then came the bright high beam headlights, the roaring sound of a horn and the screaming of bending metal.
You look around you, the wreckage of what was once your car boxing you in like an iron cage. You were stuck.
You can barely breathe, you look downwards, a long jagged piece of metal had pierced you on the torso. Your blurry vision can scarcely see if it had impaled you in your lungs or stomach.
All you know is that there was only numbing pain there, every single breath a struggle beyond your strength.
Your ears are ringing, then it returns into normalcy, you hear the chattering of people. There were screams of alarm.
A blue glow shines from your breast pocket, your shirt was soaked in your own blood.
You can't feel your right arm, judging from the hunk of ruined metal over it you can safety assume it was no longer attached to you.
You try to move your left, trying to move it past the patchwork piles of hanging steel.
You extract the blue glow, it was a cerulean gem. A gift from Kronii.
No, it was still shining. It would never stop shining as long as she loved you.
Your eyesight is fading, the shining light fades in your vision.
No.
Stop.
You can't do this.
You can't leave them like this.
Wake up damn it.
Wake up.
You made a promise.
You promised to never break her heart.
