《Re:Immortal》8. Buried alive

It’s dark. It’s dark. I can’t see anything! I can’t see light! I can’t move! Please! Someone! Why am I here?! What is this place?! I can’t see! Help me!
I try to scream, but I can’t. I try to move, but I can’t. I try to open my eyes, but I can’t. This wet feeling. This crushing feeling.
No…
No…
No, no, no… No! No!
My breathing gets faster, but it doesn’t help. There is no air around me. My bones get crushed, as I try to move. I can feel the sand getting into my nose, and mouth.
No! No, please! No! Stop! No!
No! Not this! Not this! I don’t… Please! Stop! Help me! Get me out of here! Help me! Help me! Help me! Somebody help me! I can’t breathe! I can’t breathe! No! No!
For the first few minutes, I struggle. I want to breathe, but I can’t. I feel only fear, as I understand that I can’t move my body. I can’t move my body…
No… No…
My crushed bones heal themselves, and break once again. I lose my consciousness, and regain it after some time. Once again I try to breath, but I can’t. Once again I try to move, but I can’t. Once again I feel, as my bones get crushed.
I panic, as I try to move my fingers, I can’t see my body, and after some time I can’t feel it too. The blood doesn’t reach my legs, arms, and brain. I lose my consciousness once again.
And then I regain it…
You have lost your mind
You should look for someone who can help you, or the status will get permanent.
I want to scream once again, I try to move my fingers. I can’t breathe… I need to breathe! I feel as my bones get crushed, but there is nothing I can do. I feel the numbness in my legs… Blood doesn’t reach them… No! No! Stop! Please! Help me!

I feel as my mind leaves me again…
You have lost your mind
You should look for someone who can help you, or the status will get permanent.
And then it returns to me.
No! Please! Please! Stop! Help me!
I try to breathe, but I can’t. There is no air… There is no hope… My fingers… I can’t move them… No… Please! Stop! I don’t want to... No! Not again…
Breathe! Breathe! I need to breathe! No! My ribs! No! My leg… Stop! Please! Stop!
I lose my consciousness…
I wake up once again.
You have lost your mind
You should look for someone who can help you, or the status will get permanent.
I can feel the sand in my lungs. The more I lay here, the more of it gets inside of me.
My fingers? Do I even have fingers? I can’t feel my body. Where am I? What is this place? Why is here so dark?
I can’t breathe! No! No! It can’t be… No!
Kill me… Kill me!
I lose my consciousness, and then I regain it.
I try to breathe, but I can’t. I try to move, but I can’t.
Kill me!
I don’t want to wake up. I don’t want to wake up. I don’t want to wake up.
My bones get crushed, and I lose my consciousness once again, but I don’t die. I wake up once again. And again. And again. And again. I wake up. I wake up.
I wake up… Wake up… Wake up…
I can’t even scream, as the time flows around me.

Paladin
When the first derelict alien spacecraft fell to Earth, humanity took what was found in it and propelled themselves to new heights. In their new Golden Age, humanity developed technology that they had only dreamed about. The following years saw hundreds more ships crash into the planet, spurring even greater technological leaps. An unassuming spacecraft, one of the dozens that fell yearly, descended on Siberia in 2021. The world took no particular notice of it. However, this one contained something beyond the miraculous technology that had made humans so prosperous. Three years later, in a top-secret underground facility in eastern Colorado, the automated construction of an army of Paladin Mobile Infantry Suits was underway. With this new, state-of-the-art weaponry, the military would turn the tide against the alien incursion that was consuming the planet. Humanity fell before that could happen. Sam was an engineer responsible for overseeing the facility. Now alone, he lives in utter boredom and near insanity, his only company the base’s pseudo AI and an army of empty Paladins. With the world gone to hell around him, and the things that caused it still living above, he decides that he is much better off staying exactly where he is. Unfortunately for him, that is no longer an option. This is the first novel I've written. The first fifteen or so chapters are going to be a little slower. I want there to be time to get to know the characters before they start blowing stuff up. Also, though the MC will be strong relative to the world, he won't be OP, and won't win every fight. Not every fight will be physical either. Currently, I'm aiming for something like 5 fairly short chapters a week, after the introduction part is done, but we'll see how that goes. Thanks for reading, and please let me know if I've made mistakes!

The Reaper's Legion
Earth: An advanced inhabitable world in the ideal colonizable range. Moderate temperatures and consistent weather patterns make this planet an incredible resource, along with a wealth of animals and wildlife beyond most worlds. Inhabited by the sentient species designated “Humans,” Earth would likely have joined the galactic community of its own accord. Levels of technology in local populace indicate a sharp trend towards interstellar travel, but still needs to make the last push to acquire reasonable interstellar technologies. Up until quite recently, Earth has not been a fully classified planet and was largely unknown. Due to biotic activity in the quadrant, however, attention has been drawn to Earth and many other possibly habitable planets in the regions, primarily for quarantine and control tactics. Matthew Todd was not a particularly unique human being before the meteors struck the earth. Average athletics, above average intelligence, but somewhat gifted in marksmanship, the post-apocalyptic earth has been a trial by fire for him and many others. Creatures that resemble bastardized wolves roam the land in packs numbering in the thousands. With entire cities decimated, those that remain are left with the harsh reality that they may be witnessing the end of humanity. And yet, there is a chance. Humanity knows they are not alone in the universe - the wolves are case enough for that - but what they do not know is that they are not alone in their plight. They are not without aid. Obelisks descend from the sky, giving the people a means to fight back. With tools ranging from guns to advanced mechanical apparatus and more bizarre tools, the people must cull the Biotics. Or, be consumed by the ever growing and mutating threat. Join Matthew in the fight to exterminate the Biotic threat, and to ensure the survival of human kind!
