----- Phyre's POV-----

Choking in the fumes of noxious gases

Curled up in a ball striving to survive,

Scenes from my life begin in flashes

A sign my body is giving out,

Slowly but surely my eye lids flutter closed.

Is my fight over,

I can feel myself losing its spark,

Is this the end,

Without warning pure darkness envelops me entirely,

I feel weightless, I feel free,

Is my struggle with humanity,

Done taking its toll on me.

What is this I feel?

Two strong hands grasping tightly around my lean silhouette was the only thing that pulled my back down to earth.

Just as something is put around my face covering my nose and mouth

Fight.

I can do this.

I will live.

I felt my body roar back to life, my eyes shot open, coughing and wheezing.

" Calm down your safe now.', a masculine voice reaches out to me.

My head turns to find a tall lean muscular middle aged man with an EMT jacket on.

"Just breathe.", he continues.

Slowly I breathe in clean air reviving my airways.

"What happened?', I choked out. I was being loaded into the ambulance by a younger women with short blonde hair and the same man.

"You were legally pronounced dead for 7 minutes after the fire department pulled you out.", the lady responded to me.

I died!

she probably notice my distressed look so she put her hand on my shoulder and calmingly cooed, " Don't worry your safe now."

----------1 year later-----------

An old uncomfortable box spring mattress lay below me as I stare at the beige primer that covered the walls. This was the room I have been calling home for the past 8 months. After the accident i could no longer return to my old life.

I had to change to protect myself from him.

My hair, my attitude, my name,my everything.

I now go by the name Phyre Iris. the name was issued to my by Witness Protection. they gave me a new start, a new life.

Your probably confused now that I've mentioned Witness protection, not only was am I the lead witness but I was also the latest Victim-To Be of a serial murderer. But not just any sociopath, this man just so happened to be the love of my life that I ran away and eloped with a year ago.
