That's all he heard...quiet.
Xavier's heavy footsteps echoed through the ghostly-silent Tunnels. Things sure had changed around here. So many gone. So much pain. So much grief. Was it really worth it? Xavier sighed and kept walking, slowly opening the door to his personal chamber, which greeted him with blackness and silence. He sighed again.
"Figures," he mumbled as his voice echoed off the walls of the chamber.
It had been a while since Xavier had returned to the Tunnels. He was so often out and about, simply contemplating life and his meaning here at MH. He didn't sleep anymore. It never came to him easily. Even if by rare chance it did, he was haunted by nightmares constantly. Xavier always woke up in a cold sweat, his hands clammy and his face pale. Now he had decided to take a chance and come back to the Tunnels, at least for one night.
Xavier sat down on his bed and kicked off his heavy black boots, which dropped to the floor with a resounding "thud." Then the Lycan laid down on his dusty bed, not bothered by it one bit. His head hit the pillow and he closed his eyes, letting the darkness and silence envelop him. For the first time in a long while, Xavier was asleep.

...
Screaming. Oh, the terrible screaming. Screams of pain and anguish surrounding him. Fire. So much fire. Everywhere around him just fire. An evil, menacing laugh echoing in his head. A deep, incomprehensible voice whispering to the darkness. Falling. Falling. He was falling so far. This must be the end. How could it not be? Then impact.
Xavier awoke yet again - his hands clammy, his face pale and sweating. The Lycan cursed aloud and punched at the dirt wall, leaving a lasting mark. He looked at the clock on his dresser - 3:15 AM.
"Well, s***..." he mumbled. Xavier scowled, then put on his boots and grabbed a towel and a bar of soap, then left the Tunnels towards the lake.
