The Other World
I was in a dark forest.
My feet, which were the only thing I could feel, were walking towards an unknown destination, and I had no choice but to follow.
In my state of paralysis, I tried to recall what led me here. I obviously went to sleep, and I never sleep walk...
My feet continued to move, crunches could be heard, until there was none.
My eyes were adjusting to a pale light that was shining from the sky. Illuminating the darkness before me.
Strangely, I felt a tingle, and I suddenly regained movements of my limbs. However, my feet continued walking.
As I looked around in my unfamiliar surrounding, my eyes met the pale, blue ocean which continued on for miles.
I was walking on water.
In amazement, I watched a glimmer appear before me then disappear. Then I realized, it was forming a shape, a shape of a male.
"WELCOME."
The thing boomed, I took a deep breath before asking, "W-Who are you?"
"I AM FROM THE OTHER WORLD. I HAVE A MESSAGE FOR YOU."
I noticed didn't answer my question but wanting nothing else but to leave I quickly asked,
"What is the message?"
The image simply smiled in return.
"TAKE MY HAND."
Hesitantly, I brought my hand forth, and his large ones clasped around my one, and then—
...
..
.
THERE WAS LIGHT.
I noticed the image had disappeared, leaving me all alone, but thankfully I found myself on sand.
I took a quick look around, noticing the dark sky and the orange-black sun, I couldn't help but ask myself...was this The Other World?
I took a step and something crunched under me. Horrified, I lifted my feel to see a plastic bottle sticking to my feet with something inside...
DEAD FISH?!
Disgustingly, I threw the bottle away from me and watched as the bottle multiplied, not once, but twice, three times, then the bottle filled the sand and formed a small circle around me.
I screamed, jumping over the bottles I could and into the ocean. Immediately, my nose hit a pungent smell.
I looked back, as I swam across the water and saw the plastic bottles were continuing to multiply, and were falling into the water.
Once I thought I swam a safe distance, I surveyed the water around me, it was a murky blue now, and the plastic bottles were floating on top of the water, along with several dead sea animals, such as sea turtles, dolphins, whales, crabs, and more.
All at once the life drained out of me and I blacked out. The next thing I knew I heard a voice in the void of never ending darkness.
"THIS IS WHAT THE WORLD WILL COME TO IF YOU HUMANS WILL NOT STOP DUMPING PLASTIC INTO THE WATERS.
An image appeared of a blackened and polluted Earth.
"DO SOMETHING NOW! YOU CAN STILL SAVE PLANET EARTH!"
Silence.
He was gone.
However, my voice rang clear,
I must do something...I MUST!
