Save Me

chapter two

I finally close my eyes after staring at my bedroom ceiling for five minutes. I'm thinking about what vision I might have tonight or if I'll even have one. Ever since I had that vision of my friends burning in West Brooke, sleeping was always the hardest part of my day. I shut my eyes. All I see is black. I begin to feel my mind shift into a trance. Within seven minutes, I drift off into a deep sleep...

"Samantha! Hurry up!" a dark haired boy yells at me. He is running - no - sprinting towards me. Where am I? is the only thing is can think of. I look at my surroundings. I'm in a dark dirt tunnel. It looks as though this tunnel goes on forever. I'm standing still. Not moving even though I was told to run. I have never seen this place before. A new vision...

"Samantha! Come on!" the dark haired boy is running towards me, but I don't see his face. I see his figure though. Medium height, pale skin and sort of scrawny. He takes my hand and pulls me behind him as he sprints. Five other people pass us as he is holding on to my hand. I break free from his grasp and plant my feet on the ground. Once again I am standing still. Confused and frightened. I've never been here before. How can I be in a place that I don't even remember going to? I've never heard that boys voice before either. Who was he? Who were the other five people sprinting by us? Why were they running?

"Why did you stop!? They're coming, Sam!" the dark haired boy screams at me. I turn around and my questions have been answered. There were three other people chasing us. Two of the figures look very strong. The other figure is a girl for sure. She is very curvy and has long curly dirty blond hair. I still never saw their faces, but guessing from the boys voice, they aren't too friendly.

I begin to sprint with him. We are running for two minutes until we stop dead in our tracks.

"Where are we going?" I ask while I'm panting and trying to catch my breath. He doesn't answer me. Instead he grabs my hand and continues to run. Eventually we end up in a big dusty room. There are five pillars in the room. Four in each corner and one in the middle of the room. There is limited amount of furniture in the room. A table and three chairs. The boy walks around the pillars as if he was searching for somebody. Perhaps he is looking for the other five figures who were running with us.

"They should be here" the boy says as he continues to search the dark room.

I look at the figure, still unable to see his face "Maybe I could help out?". He turns his body and faces me. I would imagine that he would be judging me as he doesn't say anything for a while.

Finally he speaks, "Alright. Just walk outside the room and -".

He gets cut off as the other four figures walk into the dark room. Sweat dripping from their plain faces, the dark haired boy smiles and hugs one of the figures and kisses another one. "Thank God. You guys were ahead of us, how did Sam and I manage to get to the room before you?"

He knows my name. Why can't I remember his name!? I try so hard to remember, but nothing comes to mind.

The figure that the dark haired boy hugged starts to walk around the room. He has short dark hair, tan skin, he is very tall and buff, but I still couldn't see his face. "Liam was leading but he fell behind," he gestures to another figure but he doesn't realize that no one is there. "He took the wrong turn by accident. It's fine though I think we lost them".

Them?

The dark haired boy turns his head, "Speaking of Liam, where is he?". The dark haired boy has a point. Where was this Liam? I am curious to know who he is. He doesn't seem like the smartest tool in the shed, since he did take a wrong turn in a one way tunnel. The girl who the dark haired boy kissed starts to look around the room. She has beautiful short brown hair. She is tall and skinny.
