Agh! Another fingernail.

Warm blood. Scrabbling at this fucking lid.

How am I here?

Thoughts. Goddamn useless. Who cares!

No. Really. How the fuck did I get here.

ARE YOU KIDDING ME. PRIORITIES.

Who did this?

The Pope.

How is antagonizing us helpful?

...

Fuck. I can't breathe I can't move. Ughhaggh! Aggghhhhh!

Agreed. Can we reach our wallet?

What?

Our Tachyon Laser.

What the fuck is a tachyon laser?

Funny.

No, really, I have no idea what you're talking about.

"You"? You is me. Us.

What's our name?

Same time.

Charlene/Will.

Fuck.

Whose body am I in?

    This was an intriguing and fun little read. I also had to come back to it, and unbox it some more (see what I did there? lol) At first it reminded me of Buried, a film with Ryan Reynolds about a guy that gets buried alive and it all takes place within the box, then it just switched a lot. I still don't really know what the fuck is going on in it, but that's the beauty of it. Great job!

    I'm spending some time chewing on this piece... I actually read this before bed last night and had a dream about reincarnation. This one has me spinning, Tony.
