The dim light was the only light source providing the 24 year old soldier to see. Erik Graham has been part of an Australian special force, called SOCOMD, for some time now. But something like what just happened he has never seen or heard of before. He remembers the earth trembling below his feet as he and his four comrades were walking through the centre of the city of Four Corners. It was cold, but he wasnâ€™t sure if it was snowing as he couldnâ€™t remember it very well. How were his friends doing? When did he see them for the last time? Damn, he canâ€™t remember.<br/><br/>Erik closes his eyes again for a few seconds before he gets up. His head hurts by the fall that he made. As he looks around he discovers he is standing on some sort of track. Probably a train track. Itâ€™s cold as he stands there, but to be honest he doesnâ€™t want to get out of the light. Everything around him is pitch black. No lights, no nothing. He also didnâ€™t bring a flashlight as he didnâ€™t expect needing it today. Erik crosses his arms to keep his body as warm as his surroundings allowed him to. He had to get moving if he didnâ€™t want to get weaker because of the cold. The world above him was scarily quiet. There was no soul to be heard anymore.<br/><br/>He then decides to get moving and steps into the darkness. It doesnâ€™t take long before his eyes got used to the dark tunnel. With every step he hopes that there isnâ€™t another hole beneath him or that there is something that makes him trip. Erik feels disorientated but he remains calm. There was no use of him if he wasnâ€™t calm. He had to get to the Central Station where he can get back to the surface. Itâ€™s a strange feeling, walking in the dark tunnel without hearing a sound, besides his own footsteps that echo through the tunnel.<br/><br/>After some time he sees a stripe of light ahead. He starts walking faster and hopes that it isnâ€™t another hole in the ceiling. No, itâ€™s the station. There is a slight hope that there is something to warm him, or that he was just dreaming all of it. He knew that it was real though. He felt the pounding in his head because of the fall and the steps that he took. He wraps his coat a bit tighter around him as he shivers. He is surprisingly calm right now. Erik has to take control over his body, not his fear nor panic.<br/><br/>As soon as he steps into the light of the station he notices itâ€™s abandoned. No living soul around. Erik gets off of the track and then stands up, looking around for something. The damage that has been done to the building was immense. There was no way that youâ€™d be able to recover it that easily. He starts wondering what kind of earthquake that was. Itâ€™s nothing normal, that he knew. As he walks through a hallway to make his way outside, he thinks about what happened. Where are Toorak , Rodriguez, Alex and Dan? Did everything that he saw really happen?  He looks at the reflection in the mirrors that cover the walls in the hallway. He looks like a mess. His face is dirty, his skin is pale and his eyes are empty. There is a small stream of blood coming from his head. Probably caused by the hit against his skull when he fell down into the gap. Erik wipes it away and continues walking. There is a cold breeze coming from the exit of the Station.<br/><br/>It were just a few more steps before he stands on the stairs just outside Central Station of Four Corners and looks out over the street. It looks worse than Erik had expected. There were huge gaps in the earth but everything seemed to be calm now. He regrets that thought of that as he soon feels the earth trembling again. Erik throws himself to the ground and covers his head. Who knows what will happen this time. As he slowly looks up he sees something growing out of the earth. His eyes widen. Whatâ€™s happening? He watches how an immense tree crawls up and reaches for the sky right in front of him. This canâ€™t be true, Erik thought to himself, a tree can never grow this quickly. Besides, how could a tree grow here in the middle of the city. He stares at It in disbelieve. What is thisâ€¦ He once again asks himself. Itâ€™s probably from the fall, he then concludes. Heâ€™s just delusional. He has to be delusional. A slight panic start to take over, Erik usually is calm and can easily control himself. But now he was alone in an apocalyptic city that he has only seen on televisionâ€¦
