I feel slightly better....
I grasp the lighter again and press the top
Light .........
Beautiful light once more....
I have the strength to lift my arm and look at the top of the box:
"Phoenix, this is Krgon. You were drugged. If you're reading this that means, you were punished.
You might not remember who you are. You're on military port- 86. First of all, you're not even
supposed to get this message. Be careful of who you trust. Never leave this port. Stay low, stay safe."
I let go of the top of the lighter.
Who is Krgon? Why was a punished? What did I do?
"HELP!!!!!!!!! HELP ME!!!!!!!" I scream
I hear footsteps .....
My stomach turns as I wait to see whose approaching
The box creaks open and I see a small amount of light
A cute unrecognizable face holds open the lid
His brown hair gleams
"Phoenix, let's go." He reaches for my hand
Be careful who you trust.....
"I'm your partner. I know you might not remember but, I'm here to help you."
I grab his hand and climb out of the box.
There's nothing.....
I see a few other wooden boxes in a poorly lit room
There's dirt covered all over the floor
What is this place?
