Shocked

I was in a room that was underlit enough so I couldn't see the walls.  The guy across from me was a hard blonde with eastern european or russian sharp looks.  Without warning he launched himself at me and I was startled.  He knocked me to the floor and flipped me over on my face.  I couldn't see what he used to puncture my spine through the back of my neck.  It opened a hole out of which I slipped and, with this removed perspective, watched a milky smoke swirl follow me out.  From outside my prone body I felt panicked that the smoky substance would drift away.  This fear shocked me into that suspended state where I was only half dreaming so I quickly thought the smoke into a diamond-shaped glowing lightness that shimmered and disappeared.  The fear was neutalized and I woke with a feeling of peace.

Wow. That's fucked up. In an interesting way though...

okay, so I'm sure this was scary and all and I don't mean to be insensitive, but all the "hard russian" and "stern blonde" language makes me think of a Fabio looking guy wearing a leopard-print toga and lifting old-timy weights - the kind shaped like pyramids with a handle on top.

WHAT?!?!

Yeah, it was really all interesting and not frightening at all.

I like the old timey weight lifter, but he looked much more like Roy Batty in Blade Runner.
