The only thing that I was able to understand was that I have woken in a long grass field. I never went to this kind of place whenever I dreamt and this was the first time. It had different shades of yellow and green. And when I tilted my head up, I was able to see the sky. I was able to see the bright moon, shining so bright. "Today is a full moon". The stars were like diamonds scattered in the sky shining so bright. The night breeze was so soothing. I wish I could stay here for a bit more time.

Suddenly I heard loud footsteps approaching me. God that was really scary. Two big blue eyes popped in front of me. On second thought, I want this dream to end. It was so magnificent and I felt like it was looking directly into my soul. I am dead. Then it started to howl. For sure I am dead.

Then lots of arrows out of nowhere just started coming towards me. I clutched my knees to my chest and lowered my head as much as I can. God that was so scary. Then three men popped out of nowhere. Then didn't wear any mask or any such clothing that you would see in many tribal movies. But they wore black hoodies with dark blue jeans. 

They reminded me of hunters. 

Then suddenly a lady came out of nowhere. Seriously, I don't know how but these people just come out of nowhere. Like they used some kind of a spell and pop right in front of me or did I hit my head or something. The lady raised her hand and told, "Hey, no need to harm her. Finally, after so many years there's another girl here." I was grateful that she didn't let them kill me. One of the guy's responded, "You sound like there are very few girls in our camp. And clearly, there is an equal number of genders here." He then looked at me, I just gave him a clueless look back since I had no idea what was going on. "Well, I was just glad to see another girl." Then she came towards me and asked me, "What's your name, brown eyes?" Of all the names she could have called me with "brown eyes", seriously? Then I replied to her, "My name is Maya, Maya hart." "Well, my name is Caroline Sten. You can call me Carol." And then she gave me her hand and I took it. "Let's go to the camp." "Then what about that blue eye thing." "Oh, that was alpha, the wolf. It's our sort of like something we use when we go for hunting." I don't know what to say next but I decided to follow them. Well, it's just a dream. Then the guy who I gave a clueless look approached me and said, "Hey, I think you are pretty shaken up from all that just happened. I mean who wouldn't. Anyways, my name is Lucas, Lucas Sten." "Oh, are you guys siblings." "Um, sort of. She is my half-elder sister. But we carry the same family name." "Okay." "The guy right there with that red Mohawk." I looked towards where he was pointing. He looked a bit rough like the complete opposite of Lucas. "I know he looks a bit rough. -" I looked back at him as I heard him saying what I was thinking about. God that was embarrassing. I should really work on controlling facial expression. "- His name is Gabriel. He is my sister's boyfriend." Did he just share with me about his sister's relationship without her permission, just like that? It was very awkward but I decided to go with the flow. "Is that a secret?" "Nope. It was pretty obvious to all of us at camp when they started dating. And of course, I won't easily give away secrets that fast. I felt like you should know." " Are you like trying to help your sister's relationship?" "Well, you can say it in that way if you want." I raised my left brow up, like what did he mean by "that way". "And that guy is Elijah. He finished his medical course before he came here. So, so he is mostly in the medical department." I looked at that guy, he sure does look like a doctor. "For how long is he here?" "I think four or five years." I was dumbfounded. Five years? "Why is he still here?" "Well, it's hard to leave this place." "So, this is not a dream?" The whole time I thought I was stuck inside a dream. "The whole time you thought this was a dream?" He then pats my head like I was some kind of a pet animal and then started to laugh so loud. "Sorry, you look offended. -" Of course, I do. "- The thing is none of us left this place as soon as we came here but there were some people who were able to leave this place. Which was so long even longer before I came here." I felt pretty shaken. So, I asked, "For how long are you here then?" "I think two and a half years. But Carol came here a year before me." Then he started speaking about all the other stuff about them. Later, I didn't know what to say after that so our journey to camp resumed in silence.

We reached the camp. It was so big. There were around fifty log cabins, it was huge. There were quite a lot of people there. When we went further inside there was another large wood cabin but this one was a bit larger than the others. We climbed up the stairs and Carol turned back and said, "I and Maya are only going in, you guys can continue your work." None of them said anything and they all left. That's one character I admire from this lady.
