My eyes opened the slightest bit. "Doctor! Doctor!! Come quick! She's awake now" someone in the room yelled. Why are they yelling? And who are they? Why do they care that I woke up, after all I was just taking a nap. And what is this stabbing pain? I can feel pain on my stomach my right leg and right arm... A slight pain in my left ankle and wrist. What happened to me?

Someone in a white coat, who I am guessing was the doctor someone called for, came in. His name tag printed 'Dr. Miller'.

"Hi Isabella, how are you feeling today?" Dr. Miller asked.

He seemed to be talking to me. Was he? My throat is very dry. I tried to answer but it hurt. I finally was able to get out the words "Who is Isabella?" Everyone in the room stared at me with their mouths agape a bit.

Did I say something strange? I was simply curious. Wait, speaking of curious, where am I? Who am I? And why is everyone staring at me? I tried to sit up a little. But my stomach caused me to groan and lay back down to my original position.

"Can I have water please?" I asked breaking the silence.

"Of course, and you are Isabella," Dr. Miller replied to me.

"I am?"

"Yes you are and here you go." He said handing me a glass of water.

"Thank you."

"Would you mind if I asked you a few questions Isabella?"

"No, not at all, ask away!" I said drinking my cold water, it felt good to soak my throat.

"What town are we in?" Dr. Miller asked me.

Well that's an easy question. It's... Wait how come I don't know??

"Ummm, I honestly forgot..."

"Okay then." Dr. Miller wrote something down on a piece of paper. He then asked me a few other simple questions that were so simple yet I couldn't seem to think of the answers. He asked questions like, 'What street do you live on? What kind of animals do you own? What state do we live in?' etc. I felt bad not being able to answer, but this whole time he kept writing down my answers.

"Can I talk to you outside for a minute mam?" He asked the lady that was crying hysterically and who first called him in here.

"Of course doctor."

Then they walked out. Will somebody please tell me whats going on here?!?

I heard the crying getting stronger and louder, what was he telling her? They both came back in.

"Isabella, I'm sorry to say but I'm afraid you have amnesia," he said

"I have what?! What even happened to me?! Why am I in so much pain?!" I started tearing up and crying.

"Before I answer your questions, can you tell me if you remember this woman?" He pointed to the woman who had been crying.

"No, why should I?"

"Honey.... You really don't remember me?" The woman finally spoke.

"I'm sorry but no I don't remember, I don't even know who I am let alone you."

"I'm your mother. This all started at your school, Clinton High School."

"I'll leave you two alone to talk," the doctor finally spoke up.

My mother sat down on the bed right by my feet. She had black hair to about shoulders length, and hazel eyes.

"Okay, let's start from the beginning. Your name is Isabella Swift. You're 16 years old, have a driving permit and go to Clinton high school. You are now injured because you fell down a set of stairs. Later when the kids were leaving school, they all were screaming. Blood dripped down the steps and lead to you. They called an ambulance right away. It took them about 5 minutes to get to you. You had to get 10 stitches in your stomach, you have a broken leg, and arm and on the other leg and arm a broken wrist and ankle. You have a severe concussion, and well we just found out that you had amnesia. You also lost a lot of blood by sitting there for so long. I'm so sorry honey!!"
