The distant sensation of choking pulled him from his slumber, awakening with a cough that shook his shoulders as he expelled the trapped fluid from within his throat. More blood. Metal coaxing his tongue, clogging his nostrils. The beast attempted to shirk away from the small pool of it gathering beneath his parted lips, but shifting in the snow brought a rare whimper of pain and the effort was swiftly ended. He was content to just lie here, let it be done with. From the depths of his mind he concluded his 'awakeness' had simply always been a burden.
It was when he was left slipping from the world for another round of dream that a familiar voice shot out at him. Useless.
Eyes snapping open, head yanked upright Leatherface was confronted with... nothing. Even through the heavy stench of his own bleeding he could not smell what he had thought to be his brother. A moment spent on confusion, another spent on the sharp pain that his sudden action had brought, the longest time studying his surroundings. What had happened? The mountain had come tumbling down. He recalled the wave of white, and now he was left swept across it's surface.
Perhaps it was a miracle he hadn't been buried completely, a thick layer of snow covering most of his body, his figure stuck through like an ugly bump in the smoothness of the landscape. He'd been caught in only the outer waves of destruction, his head turning to gaze at the tree that had anchored him. But the mountain had been sure to strike him in some way for his slow dumb move for escape, bashing him against the trunk of the pine. Leatherface winced, attempting to shift left body upright with much resistance the layer of snow across his side cracking as he shifted.
He managed to straight his top half but the renewed damage to right leg did not allow it to comply. Pausing his efforts, he was left hacking into the snow. Heaving from exhaustion, the small pump of adrenaline he'd previously felt had faded now, and all he could do was stare dumbly at the crimson droplets sliding down from his chin.
