Take These Broken Wings And Learn To Fly

The Arrival

It was dark and cold I couldn't see where I was or where I was going. But I could hear voices so my new others I didn't. I could feel around me, but all I can feel was a like a cage. Why was I in a cage? Where was I going? How did I get here? Hi, I'm Sonya I'm 16 years old. This is my story and how my life is about to unfold right in front of my eyes.
All I can remember is going to sleep in my bed, I woke up in this box or cage I'm not sure what it is. But whatever it is it's cold and dark. There is a lot of yelling going on around me I could have sworn I heard the most beautiful girl somewhere near me too.
    Hi I'm Thomas, you can call me Tommy for short. I'm 17 years old going on 18 soon, isn't this a great way to live right before your big day? I wonder where I am and how I got here. Come with me and see how my life unfolds.
  I can remember the strong arms pulling me out of my bedroom, putting a blindfold on me saying "don't worry everything is going to be just fine", now I sit in this thing and wonder what is really going on in this moment? Hey, I'm teresa, 18 years old. Let's go through this together and see what we can find yeah?
  So here we go all over again, getting taken or bullied in the middle of the night. Fun times, right? Yeah, well I wonder what tricks I have up their sleeves for me this time? What's up, I'm Newt. I'm 18 years old. You'll understand more about me eventually.
     Anything bust around told what to do. Whoever these people are are going to find out the hard way. I won't take any crap from anyone. Being stuck in here is just perfect, they'll be waiting for me to unleash my inner demon, well it's what I call it. Hi, I'm Gally, I'm 17 years old. I wonder what is going on but like I said I can handle myself plus I don't need to listen to anyone.
    I've been through army training, so this is just a reminder of how strong I really am. Sure it's dark and cold but it's nothing I haven't done with before. I'm Minho , 17 years old. Let's get the show on the road.
    I don't like it in here, it's dark and cold. I can't see anything. I'm scared of the dark, so it doesn't help. I'm trying to work on my cooking skills and now look at me stuck in the middle of nowhere with no one as far as I can see in here, it's quiet in here. I'm frypan you can call me fry, I'm 17 years old on the younger side. So that's why I mentioned I was scared of the dark.
    People do things when they're scared or mad or maybe even nervous. All I'm trying to say is the people who took me and the sounds of it are going to have to handle a lot of kids. Hi, I'm Ben. I'm 17 years old. I love to run and do sports so I don't know what is so special about me, but we will figure this out together.
   For 12-year-old boy this is got to be scary, but on the other hand it's a new adventure. I don't really do much at my age other than read books and sometimes even play video games. I'm Chuck, let's go through this together, what do you say?
      People call me all kinds of names. But I have a couple friend show with stick up for me. Thing is this is totally different I don't know what's going on, where am I? I'm Zart, 17 years old.
       I don't really do much other than throwing knives and learn new things I don't know. There's nothing really else for you to know. So, I'm Winston, 16 years old.
      I'm a shy kid so I don't really get what's so important or special about me that whoever did this has me locked up in a boxer cage. I wish my best friend Sony was here though, I like her, and I think she likes me too, she just has a hard time opening up about it. But hey that's fine, she can have all the time in the world she needs. Wait, what if she won't see me ever again or what if I never see her again? I just hope she's okay. I'm Aris, 18 years old.
        You can call me with you please, it won't hurt my feelings. I'm used to it. My home life wasn't good, and school was never the place for me. I just hope wherever I'm going is a place where I can be myself and I have to worry about anything. I'm brenda, 19 years old.
        Just trying to live the best life as I can. Today is just not my day. Looks like I got myself into some trouble. I'm Harriet 12 years old.
