Summary
When Eddie first wakes up, he thinks he must barely be conscious or something. He can't remember anything at all as he lets himself sit backseat in his mind, his body moving on instinct. Smells, movement, hunger. He tracks and hunts and tastes. What his teeth sink into tastes bad and feels wrong, but the smell is almost right.
Nothing seems to satiate this sinking starvation that's made a home at the base of his ribs, so he keeps searching. He doesn't know how long he's lost, hiding from things that are bigger and hunting things that are smaller, until the ground is shaking and he feels his feet moving quickly and confidently toward the giant fissure he's been instinctually avoiding. He doesn't think anything other than home and tosses himself into it. His guts flip and he gets half buried in dirt as earth closes hotly around him.
