Noble lady's Escape

A day like any other... (1)

"Kayla!" Called a girl with long dark hair and blue eyes towards her friend across the cafeteria table.
"Yes! I'm listening!" Kayla, a normal girl with dark brown hair and blue eyes in a shade simular to the first girl, replied back in a guilty and rushed voice as she quickly looked up from her phone towards the girl sat opposite her with an attitude simular to that of a student who was caught sleeping in class by the teacher.
"You were ignoring me again..." pouted the first girl playfully as she made an exaggerated expression of sadness.
"Sorry Lilly, I was absorbed in this chapter of the book I'm reading..." kayla said as she turned her phone screen off and placed it face down on the table, after making sure it's clean... mostly.
"It's fine~" lilly said as her face drew another dopey grin onto its surface after dragging her words lazily,
"What's this one about?" She continued gesturing to the now still phone.
"A girl who got reincarnated into a book she had just read after passing out when she finished it as a side character who was a noble lady of the same age as the main cast." Kayla started before lilly interrupted her with a question in a covert way to stop her from rambling on and on.
"What would you do if you were reincarnated?"
"Depends on the situation," kayla replied after a while thinking.
"On what?" Lilly asked in genuine curiosity.
"Well, lots of things. Like world type, body's condition, gender, status, family, treatment as well as other stuff too." Kayla explained with occasional breaks for thought.
"OK, how about... a farm girl in a fantasy magic, medieval British kind of world?" Lilly asked after thinking for a while.
"I'd try using my knowledge on plants to increase the harvest and maybe marry a nice guy or I could try selling modern food and desserts." Kayla said after considering the setting she was given.
"That's cool... I'd probably just end up doing what I was told because I don't know what else to do." Lilly joked as she got up and put her backpack onto her back half heartedly,
"Bells about to go, let's head to last lesson." She announced as she waited for kayla to pack her stuff so they could walk to class together.

*After school had ended*

"Bye!"
"Bye..."
"Goodbye."

Farewells rang out as the flood of students escaped their classrooms before departing from the school.

Kayla was amongst these many high schoolers as she walked leisurely out of the now abandoned school with steady steps and music playing directly into her ears from her headphones. She was strolling absentmindedly down the once bustling but now quite street whilst her eyes were glued to the book she was reading with passion, not so silently cheering on the protagonists in the otherwise silent street. Dazed to the outer world kayla crossed the street before her phone and body where sent flying, as her legs where taken from under her after being hit by the cars bumper whilst her upper leg knocked against the hood and her body wrapped the cars front before her head slammed against the windshield before it bounced off and her body fell to the floor bleeding from the head as well as her legs which where the initial point of contact.

Kayla's pov

I felt the cold metal crash against my body as my head was smashed into the glass before it bounced off and collided again with the ground which had a slight heat radiating off it from the summer sun. My vision started to blacken and I felt a breeze brush past my hair bringing a chilling cold with it that numbed my scalp. The pain I expected to drown me didn't seem to appear as my eyes were forced shut by a weight I couldn't resist, my senses were then completely cut and my consciousness drifted away under the late afternoon sun all alone again.

My mind started to stir, but I couldn't feel my body. Darkness engulfed my entirety and in a half aware state time trikled by endlessly. Months must have passed in the eery silent void as my thoughts ran round and round in an effort to ensure they wouldn't disappear, that I wouldn't disappear... I must have died in that accident. I guess I'll be able to find out what comes after death now... my neighbour said I'd definitely go to hell but I guess she was wrong, or my understanding of hell is? Oh well!

There's no way to understand the passing of time in my blank surroundings other than the slowly disappearing topics to think about. I've already thought up the perfect come backs to every argument I can remember as well as regretted every embarrassing memory etched into my conscious. I've considered my life decisions and regretted the things I never got to do. I've even figured out the answer to that stupid maths question from my last maths lesson, it's 92.6! Now I'm just bored... I've got nothing left to do.

3rd person pov

As kayla had that thought a light click was heard and kayla was lying on a bed that was much too big for her bodies size, which was much smaller than it was when she died.

Kayla's pov

I suddenly realised I could feel my body and quickly opened my eyes before pulling my body up into a sitting position atop the giant cloud like bed. I scanned the room in confusion, where am I?

The heavy and thick duvet that lay on my lap was much better quality than anything my parents owned and it definitely wasn't a hospital bed as it was much too comfortable and impractical for that to be the case.

I heaved my body from under the warm covers and saw my legs that appeared fairer and shorted than I previously thought.

Didn't I die? Where am I?
