 Which came first, the phoenix or the flame?
Ash had just reached the desks when the lights were turned on. She had escaped without any major incidents. She had bumped into objects, but only softly. She had no problems walking through the dark, but still she was glad when the lights returned and she could see that there was nothing to be afraid of. "Obviously I couldn't see in the dark, but I could hear where other people were bumping into stuff, and I could use my sense of touch by gliding forward with my arms extended." Kinda like a zombie. "And I knew I couldn't..." ...short pause, followed by uncomfortable swallow... "... I couldn't hurt myself, because I could like, sense the obstacles and stuff." It was just darkness. Nothing to be afraid of... right?
