**Clark**
I was far away from camp when the acid fog horn sounded I ran as fast as possible through the forest. The fog was so close I could fell it burning my skin then when I though it was over I fell through the ground.

I landed in a underground bog. Thank god otherwise I would of died of the acid fog. The only problem is the hole that I fell through was to high to reach I couldn't climb out. I was stuck. During the fog I tried to come up with a way to get out but nothing came, I tried to climb but I had nothing to grab onto. When the fog ended I started kicking the wall that's when a part of the side crumbled exposing a tunnel full of water being that I had no other way out o got on my hands and knees and crawled through the tunnel. At the end if the tunnel there was the entrance to a cave I crawled in and layed down letting myself sleep for once.
When I awoke I was no longer in the cave I fell asleep in I was in a small cage. Holy crap I was in a grounder camp.
I struggled to untie my hands then I started pounding on the metal bars hoping a grounder would hear so I could have a chance to escape. After banging till my hands bruised with no luck I gave up. That's when a grounder came up and unlocked the cage door. He grabbed me by the hair and yanked me toward a small shack, he opened the door and reveiled a bunch of chains and some sharp looking tools. I was chained and left there for hours. He arrived back the next day, he palmed a sharp blade coverd in dirt and mud. The grounder started to approach me with the blade I held my breath as he slit my wrist. Then he wriped a piece of my shirt off and cut long slits on my stomach. The pain was umberable. I just wanted to die.
3 days later
The grounder repeated the same torture process for 3 days. The whole time I was there all I got was a shot glass size amount of water. I was dehydrated, tired, bleeding and most of all angry so on the 4th day After the grounder left me in the shack alone I stretched the chains as far as I could I was able to get hold of a small piece of metal, tucked it in my pocket and waited. When the grounder returned I took the metal and scratched his eyes with the sharp part. Then I grabbed his keys unlocked myself and used my last little bit of energy to run.
