Distant, like he was a witness to his own scream, hearing it from afar as he fell towards, through the never-ending dark.
The darkness around him seemed to fluctuate with patterns and lines, striations trying to reform into solidity.
Finally, everything around him stretched inward, the perspective warping until the far corner of the once cavernous, fluctuating space felt like he could reach out and touch it.
Then, he felt solidity under his feet.
Solid ground?
No.
But a cool moisture clung to him.
His skin grew cold and damp.
In front of him, beyond the black stone that had arrived just as he did, was that same battleground in Saint-Miel, northern France, that he had stood on in the cold spring of September 1918.
Around him the sound of artillery fire grew, and the screams of dying men rang out.
Under all this was the deep sound of the thrumming of something huge, like the beating of wings.
Bullets whizzed and whined past his head, and he threw himself to the mud, fear near paralyzing him.
Blood-soaked earth splashed his face cold and wet as muzzle flashes lit up the night around him.
He slid down a muddy wall on the ground below.
He looked around.
The trenches ran away in either direction, littered with slumped and shattered corpses.
Above him, men charged over the line and were brought down in a hail of brutal machine-gun fire, their flesh and blood stripped from their bones near instantaneously.
Tanks rumbled through the earth, the ting of bullets bouncing off their pleading, threatening to tear at Dillinger's eardrums.
A hand touched his left shoulder, and gasping, he spun to it.
That once dead man stood next to him, now in full First American Expeditionary Forces uniform, but a much younger, more vibrant version of him.
