Cain his body felt like someone was ripping of chunks of flesh off his body , the pain was unbearable he did not even have the ability to scream only low groans escaped from from his mouth then the pain evaporated.
Cain he felt better his body still dealing with the phantom pain of what he had been through .
Cain opened his eye, although it was a useless gesture as it was completely pitch black but it made him feel better as it gave him the feeling of control , even though the pain had stopped he knew it was only a temporary reprieve, the torture could start again any moment , but for now pain was gone.
Cain tried to feel his surroundings to find a something to support his back to sit against but he could find nothing even if he crawled a short distance the room never ended it was as if Morgan had cast him inside a endless void .
Cain turned to lie on his stomach the ground felt cold against his face it was much better than the searing pain .
Cain closed his eyes to get a moments rest before the pain came again ,as soon as he closed his eyes a blinding flash of bright light came he tried to close his eyes or to block it with his hands but it was futile ,the white light seemed to bore holes in his eyes then he opened his eyes he was still surrounded by pitch black he rubbed his eyes relived by the presence of darkness, curiosity got the better of him as he closed his eyes to observe the strange phenomena this time the the light was not as bright this time he sat up to get a better view.
Cain was sitting on strange white cloud like material it was strange to touch it felt like the softest fabric he had ever touched , the clouds seemed to stretch to infinity .
the place gave Cain a strange feeling , he looked around confusion mixed with a tinge of fear was this an anomaly?? That was the only thought Cain could think, the way others talked about anomaly’s pointed towards the fact that none could survive them ,was he stuck here for an eternity ?? that was the situation that really scared him as he could see himself going slowly mad overtime that would be an agonizing death to die by madness and starvation .
Cain turned around to observe his surroundings it was only an endless expanse of white but then he spotted something the thing stood out against background of endless white ,it was a black skeleton it looked like its bones were made of the night sky itself ,even though the skeleton was faraway Cain could observe it as if it was sitting in front of him .

Something changed the world itself contracted the distance between Cain and the skeleton shortened until they were sitting almost face to face , now closer he could see the countless cracks on the pitch black bones of the skeleton something inside the skeletons skull shifted slowly flesh grew from the hollow eye sockets as slowly a half formed eyes came into being the skeletons jaw was slowly covered by muscle as a tongue grew Cain looked on at horror as the skeleton as it grew a pair of lungs and an half formed chest.
every instinct in Cains body told him to get away to move but his body didn’t obey, he tried to look away to not see the grotesque transformation but his eyes were glued to the skeleton , he was not in control of his body anymore .
the skeleton now grown an almost complete chest and neck opened his mouth and spoke in an harsh hollow emotionless tone
“understand ,Prometheus call his mind back ”.
as soon as the words were out of its mouth the whole place started to dissolve starting from where the skeleton was sitting .
Cain tried to get up to get away from the growing vortex but his body wouldn’t obey he tried his hardest to fight whatever thing was controlling his body but it was futile as
he fell through the center falling into an endless bright expanse he tried to open his eyes to escape, the oppressive darkness feeling safer than the current situation , but he couldn’t, he continued to fall into the endless expanse of bright light.
Cain slammed into something a low groan escaped his lips as he woke up, he was sitting inside a concrete room which was dimly lit by a weak yellow glow.
Relief washed over Cain as he realized it was all a dream, the horror he had witnessed was still fresh in his mind , his heart beating like a drum the fear and panic he felt slowly subsiding he took a deep breath relief washing over him like a tide taking all his fear with it .
The cell rectangular in shape it was long but its breadth was small enough that Cain could not extend both hands fully standing at the center , it felt like he had been asleep for an entire day or at least from the time Morgan had pushed him in , with nothing to do he sat in the dimly lit room waiting for something to happen after what felt like an eternity he heard voice outside they were too faint to properly understand but soon the door swung .
The doorman had opened the door holding a spear pointed toward Cain behind him was Morgan as soon as the door fully opened a look of confusion passed over both the men as they stared at Cain who was standing inside the cell Morgan and the doorman had clearly not expected what was happening they clearly expected a fight but what greeted them inside was different.
After momentary confusion a look of relief came over them as they visibly relaxed .
The doorman said to Morgan “he is one of the immune ones "Morgan regarded him “Yes”
Cain looked at both of them and walked out , he looked at Morgan wanting to ask him what was the thing he saw but he knew the answer still he decided to ask “what was the that thing.”
it was the doorman that spoke in a aggressive voice “You don’t have to know”
Morgan spoke up “don’t be like that he should know the basics he will work with us from now.”
