Saphira POV:

This darkness felt fimiliar. It was the same kind of inky black space that I've dwelled in when I lost consciousness back then. Altough it felt familiar, I couldn't pin point when was it I felt this same darkness before. It feels like I'm floating in an endless dark sea of nothingness. It terrifies me. And, to think I was here before. But when? When was it, that I experienced the same thing that's happining to me now? It seems no matter how hard I try, I still can't remember. This feeling, this endless dark pit I'm floating in, I want it to stop. I want to leave. So someone...

Anyone...

Get me out of here!

Please...

...

''Oh you poor thing, why are you crying?'' A voice, it echoed in this void. 'Who's that?'  There was no answer. ''There there, everything's going to be alright now.'' The voice tries to calm me, but it is doing anything but sooth me. If anything, it's making me remember. That day I woke up, that day I lost everything. It's making me remember where I felt this familiar darkness, this endless void. The panic that dread through me, the racing of my heart and the drumming in my head.

I remember...

I remember!

''AHH!'' I shouted the moment my eyes opened to the unfimiliar room I was in. The person that was with me in the room fell over in surprise. The sound of their yelp took my attention. It wasn't the mayor, or Dr. Belinda, the people I expected to see. I don't know this person. The realization that I'm somewhere unfamiliar and still can't remember what happened to me, made me act out of panic. I climbed off the bed I was laying on and quickly grabbed the wall near me  when my vision started swimming. ''Hold on, you shouldn't be standing!'' The woman on the floor cautiosly got back up to her feet. Ignoring her, I shook off my dizziness and headed for the nearest door. ''Wait, you can't leave!'' The lady tries to stop me, but I slammed the door closed behind me.

I was outside. And my surroundings started to look more familiar to me. The people that are passing by gave me concerned and wary looks. I probably looked like a mad woman to them from how disorientated I looked. I was also panting from the effort to stay upright and not fall down flat on my face. I was swaying as I walked, looking like a drunk. I was looking for someone, but I can't remember who I was looking for. The fact that I can't remember didn't stop me from searching. ''Are you okay?'' A stranger asked me, I could tell that I was making this person uncomfortable.

Without answering, and ignoring the other questions their asking me, I kept moving. As I walk, I turn my head now and then towards a person I could see through my blurry vision, I want to see their faces, to see if it's the person I'm looking for. My path is opened up for me as people keep moving out my way; they react as if I have a decease. The thought made me remember an unpleasant memory. I shake my head to get rid of it, making my world spin as I do. How is it that I can remember something from my past, but not that what is needed right now. It irritates me; it even irritated me more that I haven't found this person I was looking for.

''Saphira?'' I stopped in my tracks, looking around. It was hard to see anything through my blurry vision, but I could make out a black clad person standing behind me. The person gasped when I turned around fully to face them. ''Saphira, what are you doing here?'' The person rushed to my side, dropping what they were holding earlier to hold me upright. I still couldn't make out who it was. ''Hey! What's wrong? Why are you out of bed?'' They keep asking questions, be it about my well-being or to my reasons for leaving the doctor's place, I couldn't answer them. My voice was lost on me, and no matter how hard I try to make a sound, nothing comes out.
