<span class="mu-s">Another step was taken forward.</span>
And you find yourself deep underwater. But there is no need to worry about breathing air, or other normal things such as swimming and being wet. No, instead you are flying.
It is a beautiful freedom, but something seemed to be missing...
A car's horn made you smile. That's right, your taxi! You find yourself driving it out of the ocean with the grace of a dolphin.
It was spotless, clean, and, most importantly, it was <span class="mu-i">scratchless</span>.
That taxi was one of the last reminders of your life before it all went dark. You've been calling yourself Johan for a while now.
Life wasn't too bad-- terrible mass tragedies of fire and horrifying shadowy creatures that wish you harm notwithstanding. Friends were being made, new places were being seen, wonderful food was being eaten, and there was even a girl you became close to:
You just came back from having a date with a mime named Mimi, with the last thing you remember being how you helped a bald, mustached giant of a bartender of a man fight against the shadows that seeped through the walls and escaping a twisting labyrinth in a restaurant's basement by hiding under a blanket. You think you saved a cowboy's life too.
Either way, <span class="mu-r">none of that stopped you from flooring it.</span>
Or so you thought.
No matter how hard you pushed the pedal, your vehicle still went the same speed. Well, it wasn't as though you were sure, considering the place was a black void with your taxi driving on the ocean.
You feel a slight sensation of ennui creep up on you.
<span class="mu-r">Was this a nightmare?</span>
<span class="mu-g">"No,"</span> you said aloud <span class="mu-g">"this is no nightmare. I'm dreaming.</span>
Again.
A light could be seen in the distance, slowly growing larger and larger as you approached it in your yellow taxicab.
And as you come closer, a familiar sight envelops you.
Where were you?
>Back at home. Dad was reading you the newspaper and mom was making pancakes!
>At a classmate's birthday party. You had both just graduated highschool.
>Eating and critiquing some meals with an old friend.
>In an alleyway, trying to call for help with your trusty company-mandated cellphone.
>In the ocean again. You jumped out of the taxi before the light could envelop you, and now you're sinking in the waters.
