**Take care of yourself**




She found herself rise through the floor. A light breeze tickling her skin as the putrid stench of death wafted towards her nose. Slowly her (e/c) irises were seen as she fluttered her eyelids open, taking in the new scenery. The area was familiar to her and she wouldn't dare forget it, after all it was the first time she had ever left he facility she called home

The child's small frame seemed tinier as she stood between the large walls that created the dark alley, it blocking out any sunlight and in turn causing a dark and eerie shade. The cold gusts seemed to get slightly stronger as it pushed her hair from her face. The light brown fabric of the oh so familiar dress brushed against her lower bandage covered legs. The concrete of the floor felt cool and bumpy against her bare feet, the pebbles causing an annoying pain in the arch of her foot. Her skin prickled with goosebumps with a sudden blow of wind tickled the hairs on the back of her neck, causing them to stand on edge as she tensed

Dread swarmed her gut, large poisonous wings flapping languidly in her stomach, causing a sick churning to broil. Something was wrong, something was off. Adrenaline coursed through her yet she couldn't reason as to why, something bad was going to happen, something very bad

The nagging fear returned, eating as the edges of her nerves as they clawed their way back into her body, screeching and hissing as they faded into her skin. The pumping of her heart increased, the gnawing sensation causing her legs to fall weak but her knees were locked, feet bricked in place as suddenly quick footfalls thumped behind her

A frantic and quick pace thudded. The weight from each step causing her to jump from the resonation within the ground. She knew these footsteps, they weren't the resilience filled steps of the blonde that she knew, nor the lazy lax steps of the raven haired teacher

Thump thump thump

A sudden weight slammed into her back, heavy and frantic almost knocking her feet from the floor as she stumbled forward. Losing her footing she tripped and fell landing on her knees, instinctively placing her hands in front of her to keep herself up, and keep her head from ramming into the ground. 

Adrenaline pumped through her veins as she whipped her head around, flipping her body to sit on her butt, facing the thing- or rather person that rammed into her. She was surprised as her (e/c) eyes met ruby red glossed over with tears

Confusion spread within her chest as she watched the pale haired girl heave in breath after breath

"E-Eri" she muttered

"B-Bubba" the older girl panted out. "Finally," she whimpered, falling to her knees next to the smaller "I found you," arms wrapped around the younger girls torso and the child fell into the embrace. The stinging pain her body overwhelmed from the sense of relief, everything was okay
