Ascension of a Gamma
I could feel the blows on my stomach, on my legs, on my head, and on my chest.
And louder than the shouting voice in my head was something familiar. It said no words, it was but a sound. A sound that lit something in my mind. Something in me pulsed, slow at first then faster and faster…
A scream tore through my throat. A scream so low and guttural in my ears, it didn’t sound human. I felt my bones crack, and my insides twist and move. Another scream forced its way out my mouth, and I slammed my head back down to stop the splitting headache.
