So this is my first BBB fanfiction. The first chapter sets out after Boboiboy's second fall into space right after he defeated Captain Vargoba. I hope you enjoy!
Disclaimer: I do not own Boboiboy.
Chapter 1
Black.
It was a neverending darkness, stretching out to the furthest of galaxies and looming over his very being. He didn't know what he felt then; his mind was like a blurry haze, barely able to comprehend whatever was happening around him. But if there is one fact that he can take in with clarity, it would be...
It's all black...
Nothing made sense to him. It was as if he was drowning in the deepest of waters, where everything was muddled and obscure. He could understand everything, but at the same time he could not even grasp the whole situation. It was like he was in the back row of an absurd metaphorical ride, able to observe the current situation play out, but he couldn't control anything at all, for he was but the passenger, trapped behind an invisible barrier.
C-cold... Why is it so cold?
What was he doing here, he absently wondered. He did not know how long he had been trapped in here, let alone the reason why. He couldn't even recall any recent memories that could clue him in on the answers he needed for his questions; it was still all too hazy, the layers of nothingness clouding over his focus, and he had repeatedly attempted to snap out of it in vain.
I feel...empty.
In the midst of the vacant gloom, a faint hint of light twinkled. He didn't notice it at first, too incoherent to identify the new arrival, but the light eventually grew brighter, slowly but surely engulfing the darkness whole, to the point that it was all a blinding white and there was darkness no more. It was so bright that he could not see a thing, just like when he was hidden in the pitch black void. Fortunately, it seems like he has regained some semblance of consciousness.
"Boboiboy."
It was a vague echo of a familiar voice, so far yet so close. It came from all around him, softly whispering his name out to him. He started and frantically looked around for the source of it, but blind as he was, he could not see a thing.
"Over here."
The voice spoke up again, but this time it came from his direct right. He twisted to get a clear view of the speaker, more out of subconscious habit even though he knew that such endeavor was very likely to be fruitless, given his inability to see anything at the moment. However, it was to his relief to see that he could spot a figure emerging from the light, shrouded in shadows. He couldn't get a good look at the supposed person.
It was to his astonishment that another six figures, all identical-looking, was also taking shape behind the first one. They steadily approached him, and he panicked. He didn't understand what was going on at all!
"W-who are you? Show yourselves!" he tried to act brave and determined, for that was how he should be, especially when encountering an unknown variable. He shoved the crawling anxiety into a small corner in his mind.
"It has been too long, hasn't it?"
The figures slowly came to view, the shadows leaving them the moment they got close enough to him. His eyes widened at the revelation, and he immediately calmed down a notch at the sight of very familiar faces.
"Solar? Gempa, Halilintar...all of you?"
It was all seven of the elementals: Hailintar, Gempa, Taufan, Blaze, Ice, Thorn and Solar.
Solar, the person at the very front, gave a short smirk of acknowledgement, before it softened into a small smile. The sight of it gave him ease. Solar, though a very recent development, seems to bring him the same calming effect he had often sought out from his power watch.
Although the anxiety had been flushed out of his system, he couldn't help but be confused. The predicament he was in was utterly bizarre, and the fact that all seven of the elements were right before him when it wasn't even supposed to be possible didn't help soothe his bewilderment.
Solar seemed to understand where his thoughts were going, if his keen eyes behind his orange tinted sunglasses were anything to go by, but didn't care to enlighten the former as to what was going on. Instead, he only continued his cryptic message.
"Do not worry, Original. You won't have to stay here for much longer, I think."
Gempa, who was right behind Solar, nodded in encouragement.
"As Solar said, you'll be fine soon."
Boboiboy blinked at them, still confused.
"What? What do you mean? Just what is going on?"
Halilintar moved towards him, and Boboiboy flinched when a hand came up to his eyes and covered them. The background once again turned into a sheet of darkness, but before he could protest, Halilintar spoke up.
"You'll find out soon."
Boboiboy sputtered, "I-I don't understand-"
"Now, it's time for you to wake up."
And everything spiralled into nothingness.
