TW- panic attack.
Please don't tell me I'm writing about a panic attack wrong, because this is just based off my panic attacks. Other than that, enjoy the chapter!

Rosie's P.O.V

I'm really nervous and I don't know what to do. Willow said that there wasn't anything we had to do right now. At the orphanage there was always chores to be done if we didn't have anything to do, but now I'm not sure what to do. I don't like this new place it's creepy and suspicious...

Im lost in my thoughts when an older girl, about 14 I think, approaches me.
"Hey, my name is Lilith. what's yours?" She asks sweetly.
"Rosie.. do you need something?" I say cautiously.
    "Your new, right?" Lilith says, ignoring my questions.
    "Yes... do you know what this place is and where we are?" I ask figuring I could atleast get some answers to the questions pounding in my head.
    "I don't know where we are, but we are in a bunker with an arena where we have to fight for rich peoples entertainment." Lilith says in a soft voice.
    "What?!?!? But I cant fight- I don't know if- I don't want to- am I going to die-" I start shaking i ramble, the longer I talk the more i start panicking until I'm on the ground having a full on panic attack. I cant breathe and my chest is tight, and I'm sobbing and I feel a hand grab mine and I can make out a voice talking to me.
    "Rosie can you hear me? Copy my breathing." I can't tell who's talking to me but I try to copy their steady breathing.
    "That's it. Just keep taking deep breaths," I recognize the voice as Lilith's now.
"It's okay. Your not going to die here Rosie." Lilith says firmly but reassuringly.
"But I don't know how to fight!" I scream, panicking.
"Calm down and take a deep breath, okay?" She says as she rubs my back to help me calm down.
"My friends and i will help you okay?" Lilith says calmly.
"O-okay-" is start to say something but I'm cut off by the kind sound of a bell ringing. I hear Lilith curse under her breath as she stands up and grabs my hand, pulling me up from the floor where we were sitting a moment ago.
"Follow me quickly," Lilith says before walking towards a girl with blonde hair, I remember willow telling me her name was Aurelia. She grabs two knifes tossing one to Lilith and walks through the large iron door.
