Alone Again

== Alone Again ==
“Have you guessed the riddle yet?” the Hatter said, turning to Alice again.
“No, I give it up,” Alice replied: “What’s the answer?”
“I haven’t the slightest idea,” said the Hatter” --Lewis Carol, Alice in Wonderland
== Prologue ==
I woke up to screaming. There was fire, explosions, zombies, skeletons, and creepers. So many creepers. And then... It was all gone.
== Chapter 1: Inlaqueatus ==
I was on a beach. It was cold on the beach, but I didn't mind.
I needed to find my home, my friends, my family.
But first, I needed shelter. I collected some wood and made tools. Torches. A pickaxe made of stone. I built my house. Then, it was night. I heard whispers. So many whispers. They were everywhere. They kept telling me things. And then, and then, ...I was hit with an arrow. In the chest. I was impaled. Falling. And falling. And falling. Falling...
== Chapter 2: Hic Iterum ==
"Aaaaaaaaaaahh!!!" I screamed. I felt for my chest, the arrow-
Was gone.
I got up off my bed. It was day again. I walked outside. And saw... Me. Dead. Lying on the ground. With an arrow in His (My?) Chest. Then, the body faded, and disappeared. I went and got my equipment back from where my... Body was. I needed to be more careful at night. I was confused, no, terrified. The 
whispers-the arrow-falling-coming back-seeing my body-
It was all too much. I went back to sleep.
== Chapter 3: Dormientibus ==
This time, I woke up in a cold, dark room made of stone. There was one door that was also made of stone. When I tried to open it, It disappeared. I walked down a hallway lit with torches, to another door. I opened it also, and before me I saw I was on a floating stone building, with a path leading to a door that didn't seem to be connected to anything. Islands of stone, floating in the ether. A voice spoke in my head. "This is the end of all things. And the beginning." "Who are you?" I said. There was no answer. I walked to the door, and stepped through. Before I left, I saw 3 other doors. One was cloudy and bright, One was fiery and shadowy, one was dark, and speckled with stars. But I went through the first doorway, the one that looked familiar. There was something beyond the doorway, but-falling again. Falling and falling and falling-
I woke up.
== Chapter 4: Descensus ==
I woke up in my house, except for one difference. There was no door. I tried to break my way out, but it didn't act like wood. It didn't even scratch or dent. So I waited. And thought. And thought and thought and thought. I thought that maybe nothing was real. Maybe this was all a lie. Maybe this was a really long dream. I waited and thought for what seemed like months. I didn't get tired or hungry or thirsty. Eventually, I felt very tired, and fell asleep. I woke up in the Ether again. The voice spoke to me, "Do you really want to leave? Do you really want the pain, the suffering?" "Yes," I said. "I need to find my family" "Do you want your memory back?" The Voice said. "Then have it." And... I remembered. Did I really want to go back?
...Did I?
== Chapter 5: Consummabis ==
I remember.
They are gone.
THEY ARE GONE!!!
"VOICE!!!"
"LET ME OUT!!!"
"I'LL KILL YOU IF YOU DON'T LET ME OUT!!!"
But
I
Can't
Leave.
This place isn't real.
That is why there is no exit.
A Trap.
I hear a voice.
But it is a different voice. "The first voice you heard is malign. It knows you will be a powerful force against it. It tries to keep you here. It lied. You can leave if you wish."
I can leave if I wish.
But do I really want to?
Do I?
do I...?
"No."
== Epilogue ==
"-----"
"H----"
"H-ll-"
"Hello?
"Can you hear me?"
"It's time to wake up."
