He turned his head to the person standing above him, Trying to focus his vision onto the man's face. After several moments of struggle, he was able to make out the man's blurry silhouette through the darkness. The ringing continued, and after a few moments of focus he saw that the man wasn't attacking him. Looking back to the floor, he closed his eyes and struggled to drown out the ringing in his ears. The ringing subsided a bit, not completely, but enough to make out bits and pieces of what he was saying. [i]"Hey... Deep Breath... three. One, two... just an Illusion... Concentrate... break it. It isn't real."[/i] Nathan clenched his fists as the ringing flooded back to it's full volume, his eyes staying tightly shut as he tried to focus. His heaving subsided, and his gasps slowed as he forced himself to take slow, deep breaths. He felt the trembling throughout his body subside slowly, and the knot in his stomach untwisted, but the darkness still clouded his vision. [color=#8B4513][i]It isn't real, it's just an illusion, just focus, it isn't real.[/i][/color] He slowly opened his eyes, watching the darkness slowly recede to display the carpet on the floor below him. Letting out a sigh of relief, he moved back up to his knee, steadying himself by placing his hand on the ground and speaking softly. [color=#8B4513]"Thank you."[/color]
