Opening my eyes, the first thing I notice is that everything is colourless. Three figures, all a shade of black and white run over. Looking closer I realise it is Lenny and the girls. They have worried expressions and they are asking me if I'm alright. I have a big scratch on my arm, dripping with blood. I must have got it when I fell.
"Yeah, I am fine. I think...." I say because I know something is wrong. I look and see the trees towering above me. Well, I think they are trees. They are blowing in the breeze and are big and tall, but not green. That's it! They are not green.
"Are you sure?" Milly asks me "You look confused and scared."
"The last time I checked, you were wearing a red jumper, not a white one?" I ask, not sure of what was happening. I am about to ask them to have a look at my arm but Abby interrupts me.
"I think you better lie down, maybe you bumped your head." Abby says "Milly's jumper is red, not white."
I glance one more time up at my three friends and see there anxious faces looking down on me. Not wanting to worry them anymore, I shut my mouth and go back to sleep. The last thing my brain encounters is Benny's soft head resting on my lap.
*****************
Lenny's POV (point of view)
I went up to Annica and looked at her beautiful face sleeping, Benny also asleep on her lap. What had happened? Why did she think Milly's jumper was white? I look over and make a mental note to remind myself that we need to find a doctor as soon as she wakes up. Annica is almost as pale as a white sheet of paper and her arm is bleeding constantly, from a large scratch. I just hope we will find someone who can help her. I called to the others and they see the scratch on her arm.
"I have done a first aid course before, I'll help!" Milly says "but... we may need some bandages."
"There isn't any, we need to use something else and be quick. She is loosing a lot of blood." I say, just wanting to get something tight around her arm to stop the constant blood trickling.
Milly, runs behind a tree and pulls off her shirt. Putting her red jumper back on she runs over, throwing the shirt to me. I wrap it tightly around her arm, causing her to stir.
Abby comes closer and comforts Annica as she begins to wake.
"I'll stay with Annica, you two girls go and find help, if you can't find anyone in an hour and a half come straight back. Good luck, you take Benny and Charlie can stay here with me."
"Alright. See you back here in an hour, hopefully with help on the way." Milly says.
"Bye, good luck with Annica." Abby says, sounding nervous and a bit worried.
"Don't worry, everything will turn out fine. I'm sure." I reassure the others, before they set off on the long gravel road.
Abby's POV
We walk down the gravel road and then gradually pick up our pace, resulting in a fast jog. Breathing heavily I think of everything that's has happened and is going on. First of all it started at Annica's birthday, we went to sleep and then woke up with no one there, everything gone except for Benny. We searched the house and then went over to Lenny's house. The same result. No one, nothing. Except to our surprise Charlie. Next we went to the petrol station and got a big shock with everything completely demolished, Annica went for a walk and then we found her, she thought the wrong things and had a huge cut. Now here we are, running for help. What will happen next, I wonder?
Twenty minutes later we have reached Lenny's house. Walking inside I spot the cream coloured telephone phone, hanging on the wall. I run over and pick it up. Ringing triple zero, I dial. But no answer just a beep, beep, beep, beep; signalling no connection.
"After all this no answer!?" I yell in frustration and Milly comes running inside.
"What happened!?"
"No answer." I reply, bluntly.
"Don't worry, I have found someone's mobile phone, I think it is Lenny's Mum's. It has one percent, if we charge it we may be able to get some help!"
Sorry I haven't updated in so long. I have had writers block and have been stuck on the story line. What do you think will happen? Will they be able to get help? Please comment and vote :) ~minlovestoread
