Escape from the ordinary

Somethings very wrong

Why? What was making me think about the possibility that something was off? I had given up hope of survival years ago. I knew this was coming. So why? Somethings not right. The cold air bites my skin sending goose bumps up my arms. The crisp clean smell of the outdoors filled my nose as I greedy take in the scent. 3 days we had been on that bus, 3 days. The whole time no one spoke to the twins, and neither did I, and in return they stayed silent too, except for Ash's quite whispers to try to calm Ella down. They were now standing in front of me, their ruby eyes wide with excitement as they pointed out different things to each other.
      Looking around for the source of my uneasiness, I find nothing out of the ordinary. We're surrounded by the kids deemed different, thousands of them, maybe even more. We're outside, the sky was a great color and the sun was barely visible behind layers of dark clouds. The air smells of rain, and it's clean. Looking at the scenery behind the thousands of differences, I see trees. Tall dark green trees, the lush gras beneath my feet, it all felt so natural so.... Nice.
      Somethings wrong with this. This isn't right. They took us to die. So why are we here? In this beautiful forest, where are the torture devices? The death? The pain? Not that I want to die, but this threw me off. I had prepared for death, this was the opposite. It was not what I had expected. We're they going to kill us here? And if so why here of all places?
     I was snapped back to reality by a tug on my arm. I look down to see Ash's shining red rubies, he gave me a small smile and said "they say to crowd around the tables they set up." I nod, knowing that if I spoke my voice would betray me, and someone would get hurt for it. I am pulled along by Ashton, his small pale hand could barely hold around my wrist. His other hand was around his sister's shoulders, pulling her in closer as she clung to him trembling. I look at Ella, she's changed in the 5 minutes I took to look around. Her happy demeanor there just a second ago was gone. She looked on the verge of breaking down. She had a far away look as Ashton whispers his sweet nothings in her ear to calm her as we walk.
      Crowded around the tables we all stand, no one daring to make a move until the guardians commanded them to. The only sounds audible were the rustling of the leaves as the wind danced through them, the the guardians occasionally yelling at a kid who moved too far away by mistake, and Ashton's hushed words.
      Strangely calming and peaceful. Those were the words to describe the forest. The silence was uncomfortable but strangely fitting. Like it was meant to be.
      The voice in the back of my mind told me not to trust this. I shouldn't trust the calm the peaceful. It's to good to be true this place, the fact we're still alive, it's too good to be true, all of it. Your going to get hurt if you trust it warned. I knew something was wrong, that I should run no matter the cost. I needed to get away from here from this place. I knew, but yet some how I couldn't help but to feel that it all seemed, right. Like this was,
