I existed in the gray and the gray existed around me and nothing happened. Then something appeared on the ground. Small. Dark against the endless pale. I moved toward it and felt the first sensation since arriving in this place. The floor, if it was a floor, gave slightly under my feet. Like sand. Like the packed earth of a garden after rain.

My forearm pressed against her neck while she struggled beneath me, too busy trying to push me away to notice what my hand was doing. My fingers slipped into her pocket. Cold metal brushed against my palm. The keys are finally in my hand. I pulled them out before she could realize what had happened. Whether she noticed later or not, it didn’t matter.
