Nats POV
This new girl,wait why am I calling her new girl. I know her name is Katie. Anyway Katie walks way too fast. It's like she knows her way around the island. Like she was here before. I was about to ask her how much longer we had to walk when I bit my tongue. She said to not ask her any questions and she seemed pretty annoyed right now. It wasn't even that long of a walk, probably just 3 minutes or something, but I was really bored. We turned right and went through more bushes when I saw a backpack just lying on the ground around some.... really colorful rocks? As I got closer I saw that they had names and were decorated. Oh, they were journals. These were the journals the new.. Katie was talking about. How did I not see these before?
"Well here we are," Katie said. "I'm sorry, are we back to where we started," I questioned. " Yep, these journals are supposed to help us remember who we are, I mean it worked for me," Katie said. " walked up to the journals and saw that they only had names and some stickers on them, or technically the names and remains of the stickers, but no pictures of any type. Nothing to help us remember who we were. " How did you figure out which one was yours since there were no names on these," I questioned Katie. This brings me back to the point that she was dangerous and couldn't be
trusted. She shrugged and responed" I just chose the one that looked like mine." "So Katie or any of the information you gave could be lies," I said looking her hard in the eyes." Well... ya but I do feel like this is all ture, I mean the parts that I read at least,"She said, shifting her feet constantly. I sighed and looked at everyone eles,"Well we better get looking at which one is ours," I said as patiently as possible.
They started moving over here as I sat down on the sand and started looking at the covers of the notebooks. How were we supposed to know which one was mine? I mean it's not like it was going to start glowing or a big huge sign was going to say which one was mine.I sighed as another boy sat down. " This is all so weird, I mean first you wake up with no memory and then we are looking for a sign to show us which one is our journal," I mumbled enough for him to hear me but not enough so that Katie would. " You know I don't think that said a sign," he responded just as quietly.
"She sure ment it like that," I grumbled. He just kept looking. Soom everyone eles came and started looking. I had already separated the girls and boys notebooks. I did it based on the looks of the names, but it did make it easier and more spaciecous." Should we look through everyones notebooks and see what everyone wrote to figure out what makes more sense for us," I asked. "No,first it would be an invasion of privacy, and you guys don't remember what you guys are like so there is no point," Katie said kind of sheepishly. I raised my eyebrows in suspicion, this is an action proving she wasn't trustworthy, maybe she is trying to trick us. "Wait, I.. I thinkI found my journal," the n=boy next to me said. " How do you know that," I asked, confused. "I don't know, it just strikes me as mine," He said as he took the note and skimmed it through.
" I can't read any of these words though, how did you figure out what yours said," he asked. " I just put multiple pieces of paper together and I could read it since the words were all in the same place,," Katie said. "Huh," he said as he started doing that. I sighed and looked through the notebooks again. There was this one notebook that just made me look twice, so I am guessing it's mine right? I sighed and took up the notebook, did what Katie said and skimmed through what I wrote and gasped. I turned around, dropped "my" notebook and said, " You didn't tell us you were a murderer."
Hey guys, I hope you like the next chapter. I did make it a little longer than last time, and know the characters are finally figuring out what's going on. Well, they are sort of figuring it out. Anyway, I hope you enjoy it.
