After all night, sitting by the tree, crying and wondering what I am going to do, I decide to start walking to see if I can get some sort of flashback. I walk and walk till I reach a pond. On the other side, there is a little hut. I want to know what was in there so I start to walk around the side of that pond trying not to fall in. When I reach the door I hesitate, worried there would be someone in there so I wait. Soon the idea to look through one of the windows pops into my head, so I walk to the window on the left and peer in.
I see a woman. She looks sad. Her eyes and face are red as if she had been crying recently. She isn't crying now but I can tell she was. I want to help her, so I walk back to the door. I'm about to turn the doorknob then remember to be polite so instead I knock. There is a small window on the side of the door. I can see the woman walking to the door. The doorknob slowly turns. Before I know it the door is completely open and the woman is sanding in it.
"Baby!! Oh I was so worried! Oh my goodness! Oh my goodness!" She says and hugs me really tight. I am confused. "Come in! Come in!" She says to me "Honey!" There is a pause of silence. "Mitchell!" She yells again. Still, no answer. "MITCHELL!!!!!!!" She then screams with impatients. "Coming!" A man yells back. The woman turns and smiles at me then turns back to sit on the green couch by the wall..
Soon there is a man standing in the entrance to the hall with a phone in his hands. He is big and frightening. He doesn't look too bright either. "What is it, woman?" He says without looking up from the device. The woman clears her throat to get his attention. The man looks up at her then me, looks back at her, this time with a smile. He looks back at me and opens his arms to get a hug. I back away a little but he still comes at me. He wraps his arms around my body and squeezes. Now I'm REALLY confused. The man unwraps his arms and just looks at me. He then frowns. "What's wrong?" He asks. The woman stands up from where she was sitting and says "She just returned from getting kidnaped after falling at battle. She's probably in shock." I correct her, "Uuuu...No. I'm In shock because I was just hugged by two people I just met." They look at each other. The woman looks sad again then says "Baby? You don't remember us? We're your parents." The man motions to the hall and says "We'll be right back."
They went into the hall. I could hear them whispering. I hear the woman start to cry a little. Then I hear the man say "I wonder what happened to her to make her lose her memory." Trying to stop her crying, the woman says, "Maybe they poisoned her! Or maybe they were about to kill her when she escaped. Or mayb-" The man interrupts her, "Maybell! Stop, you're only going to make matters worse." I'm a bit scared now. What if they were about to do those things to me?! Then the man continues, "I'll go get my sleep darts and you make sure she stays here, then we can take her away somewhere they will never find her." I'm not sure if they are looking out for me or not but when I hear the woman's footsteps coming back down the hall, my first instinct is to run so I do.
I run strate to the door and when I am about to open it I hear her say, "Sweety? Where are you going?" I turn around so I can defend myself if I need to and see her walking toward me. I put my hand on the doorknob but didn't twist it. The woman starts talking to stall as much as possible so her husband could come and put me to sleep. She says something about her and my "father" loving me so much, but I don't listen. I'm too busy coming up with a battle plan. But my planning is interrupted when I see the man walking out of the hall with his hands behind his back.
Before I know it I am outside running past the pond as fast as I can to get away from these people. I'm just running and running not knowing where I am going but still running. I looked behind me to see that those people were still following me. When I turn my head back I run into something and now all I can see is black. Just black. I...........I think. I'm passed out?
