How Long Is A Night

chapter one- freedom

I was stranded in the middle of no where, no one in sight and I knew how important it was to get out and be free. Maybe I should start from the very beginning of my story. So when I was born by my mom and dad they had figured out something was very wrong with my mom. She was getting sicker and sicker every night. She died three days after I was born. So it was just me and my dad to face a mysterious world. When I was five years old I started seeing things that people normally didn't see, like people dead in a war or the future of my moms life. I didn't know what was happening and I often had such terrible memories that I often tryed to kill myself or I would seriously ingure myself on purpose. My life was pretty sad and know one could tell me why. I lived in a closed in village where no one came in or out. They would have wars right outside of the village and that's what my dad had thought gave me my memories but that wasn't it.

When I turned twelve years old I was supposed to be in school every other day, but I never went to school instead I would climb over a old wall blocking off the forest of mystery. Well that's what I called it. I knew it like the back of my hand. Even though my mom had "died" I was determined to find her or even her grave. I knew this very sneaky teenager who I felt like I could trust him with any secret . We would go to the top of the water tower and poke wholes in the top and put random stuff in it. We were the badest people in the village and we went even that bad. Since I didn't go to school I had perfect survival skills so I knew how to take good care of my self.

August 27th 2001 the government declared we had won the war and they would lift the gate. We had four main parties. The adults who weren't married, the kids that were under thirteen and older than three.,the teens fourteen to eighteen, and the adults with babies or kids who didn't fit with the age groups. Of course the rebellious teen boy I always hung out we had a plan to destroy the party and seek revenge of anyone who ever thought we would not be able to be free. Of course the gates opened for a couple days but we couldn't get revenge because the police we're looking at us the whole night. On my way home to papa I could have sworn I saw some sort of riddle maze or opstical course out there but they said it was just in my head. I found that hard to believe. But the weird thing I saw was a lake but guess who I saw in the reflection of the lake....my mom.
