Alternate Edgar

As  I awaited a safehaven to save me from this dark demise, a hand reached out and I snared it. The sheer force of our hands gripping pulled his down and the dreadful pendulum severed his just above the wrist. Holding my dismembered saviors hand, I plunged into the abyss. Waiting and tensing my body for this inevitable ending that seemed to lurk. But as I felt my feet hit the floor, a shock comes through me and I am stricken breathless. My eyes unclose and I realize that the ending of which I so miserably awaited was not a reality... but a dream.
