I've been sick for 2 weeks now. First I thought my fever was due to standard flu which has been circling among people during the months of winter. So I started Antibiotix treatment which didn't work out. Since it was obvious that my condition had nothing to do with flu, I went to an Infection Specialist and she gave me another brand of Antibiotix with the suspicion of an unkown Blood Infection causing my fever and trembling attacks.
One of those days I've visited the hospital frequently, probably a week or before from now (a lot happened afterwards), I was just lying in bed and thinking where exactly this infection was located; since my knees hurt like hell during those days, my first guess was the knees. I slowly drifted off into the arms of sleep.
When I wake up, there is a deep humming at the back of my head. Oh shit, I say to myself, the infection must be in my brain and now it started to make noises, I'm completely doomed. I suddenly stand up with these horrible and fearful thoughts in my mind. Then I realize I really could stand up in a second; my knees are not hurting no more and I'm not in my bed. I am actually standing on a tannish-pink surface. The ground isn't very solid, I realize my feet leave their soft marks on it as I walk on, but a few seconds later they disappear. I realize I have white pj's on.
I am actually on a ridge overlooking the area. Right a few meters beneath me, there's a vast, plain area going on till the borders of my sight. Similar ridges catch my eye on various distances and directions. The ceiling I can see, but it is covered with different looking objects; vertical thin and black lines which look like they're protruding up the ceiling as well cover the whole ceiling. between them, in forms of light pink and orange, there are various objects moving. In fact, the whole area looks like it's moving somehow but the pace is different at different corners.
The silent humming still goes on. I lean on the ridge and try to see what's on the flat area. First thing I notice is the big dark green tubes, making spirals and wrapping anything and everything and it's like they're going on forever. There is something moving in them constantly, and some of them (the ones far from me) have a yellowish glow on them. I think I see some steam going up from those far tubes as well. Anyway, the whole area is full of entangling and swirling tubes; so I decide to follow one of the biggest ones to see where they lead and what's going on really in here. I don't really feel the need to ask myself questions like where I am or what I'm doing here. It all feels so natural. I hop down the ridge (it's only a few meters high) and walk to the widest tube I see around. When I'm a few meters close, I feel it throbbing inside. Looks like some sort of liquid is flowing through, I dare not touch the surface, but only for a moment; I think I see faces inside the tube. Red, urgent faces flowing with star speed. I feel dizzy only by looking at them. Since I don't wanna doze off one more time, I turn my face off and follow the tube.
