For a while all was chaos.
Suddenly we were being attacked by what looked like big black strings of text. They were rushing out of nowhere, ribbon-fashion, from every angle, they appeared and disappeared randomly.
They, I have to say they: for they seemed to have purpose, screeched like seagulls, tasted of raw fish and seemed to be able to go right through us. When they went through words, strange, unknown, oddly elegiac, words, filled my mind.
Strangely they didn't smell and I didn't really feel them in any physical way. It was as if I was standing in a thunder storm watching the rain, listening to the thunder;without getting wet or seeing any lightning.
I lost sight of the other mes. I was flailing my arms in a forlorn attempt to keep the things off me. I was just fighting empty air. Except not quite, there wasn't any resistance, but I couldn't go through them like they went through me. Me arm just stopped.
After what felt like five minutes they went away. They just went away. They were there one minute and gone the next.

"What...?"
"That's new."
