𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝟐: 𝐀𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐠𝐨

As I started to gain consciousness again, I started to freak out. Who am I, where am I, why can't I remember something? I couldn't memorize anything, I felt like I had just been born. 

I heard a voice around me. A teenage boy's voice. I couldn't clearly understand what he was saying. I wanted to know everything. I didn't understand what was happening. Maybe I could ask the boy for help, he looked to have more information than me.  I opened my eyes and I saw a face, staring at me, looking into my soul. Okay, I change my plan. I told to myself as I became scared of the man scrutinizing me.

The two eyes finally realized I was awake. Before he could react, I punched him so he wouldn't try to do something. It seems to work cause he fastly put his hand up to his face. I get up without taking time to look around. The boy I punched made some noise of pain, covering his injured nose.

"What is wrong with you girl!" Let out the boy, He had a deep voice, but that's all I could know before I ran out of the building without letting the boy stop me.  Where did I even gain this strength? Where am I supposed to go!? I asked myself.

As I tried to escape the boy, I took the time to look where I was going. On my right, were other wood buildings and things that looked like a garden. Some people were there, taking care of the vegetables.

In front of me, huge stones that looked like walls surrounded me. I looked up at them to see they were at least 20 meters tall. How could stones be that tall and that much? Ivy was covering them, a little bit everywhere. They could have been long for hundreds of meters and I would think it's normal.

On my left were tall trees, making a forest. I ran into it, wanting to hide myself. It feels like my mind didn't know what to do but my body did. It was a weird feeling I couldn't explain.

Once I arrived in the woods, I searched for a way to hide and consider what was happening to me.  The boy from earlier was surely going to come back to find me. What if he came back with more people? Are they gonna try something on me?

I suddenly have an idea. I could climb a tree! I examined for one that was solid so I could ascend it. I found one that also had branches so I could use it as a support.

I started my ascent by grabbing a branch with my left hand. With my right foot, I pull up myself from the ground. It was working great. But as I was almost in the middle of the tree, my foot slightly slid off the branch.

I tried to keep my stability, but I was too slow and I felt right on the floor, on a rock. Hopefully, my head didn't hit the stone but my body did. I lay in a weird position since my right arm was under my back. My wrist was face to face with the rock making me groan as I complained of my stubbornness.

I changed my position to put my wrist back in its normal position. Some blood left my injured body part since the sharpness of the stone cut my skin in a straight line. I feel pain passing from my wrist to all my body.

I wanted to try again even if I was hurt, but I heard voices coming into the woods. I ran behind a large tree that could efficiently hide me.

"She ran into the wood!" Said a voice I recognized. It was the same boy from earlier and I was right, he had brought people to find me.

I looked at my wrist another time and tried to keep it from bleeding. I tried to apply pressure by touching it in different ways. I suddenly remember something. A name. It was Ben. I couldn't picture whose it was. I think it's probably mine. At least I remember my name. I thought.

The voices keep coming closer and looking behind every tree. Something was special about them, they were only boys. If I wanted to prevent them from finding me I would need to find an idea and fast.
