I woke up in the middle of nowhere, the last thing i remember is the flight attendant telling us to put on our seatbelts' because we were going through some turbulence, something tells me that it wasn't just some turbulence.

Now that I'm awake everything is coming flooding back to me, the plane it crashed and that white light I saw must have been me passing out. How am I not hurt? There is nothing around me, no plane, no debris, and no passengers dead or alive. It's almost as if I drifted off to sleep with no care in the world. I'm on a beach, behind me a forest, in front of me an ocean. I decide that I can't stay sitting here forever so I set off down the beach. Halfway through, I don't know what happened but I collapsed on the beach. In front of me now is a cabin but I'm no longer on the beach, I'm freezing, it's snowing, so without thinking I did what any other rational person would do and entered the cabin. Inside was everything I could need, except for the most important thing, food. I know I won't last long without it and I might collapse again. When I stepped outside I see bushes that I thought would be my best bet of survival. Little did I know that this little act would be a terrible mistake. I waddled over to the bush and began to search it when I felt as though I was being pushed through it. On the other side I came to face my biggest fear, a wolf at least three feet taller than I was. Before I could run, it jumped over the bush and was about to land with its gigantic paws on my face crushing me when it turned into, water? It splashed my face and when I opened my eyes I wasn't in a forest anymore, I was in the ocean and it was summer. I was actually enjoying myself but I began to wonder what was happening when I felt a weight on shoulders and the deeper my thoughts became, figuring out the truth to what happened, the heavier the weight became until I stopped thinking. I wasn't going to be drowned by my own thoughts. But the second I let go of my thoughts the weight became unbearable and I sank. It was like an invisible force was holding me down. There was no way up, whenever I looked up at the surface it seemed as if it was getting farther away even though I stayed in place. I closed my eyes wishing it to be over when nothing happened. I opened my eyes hesitantly and was in the middle of a jungle. I had a backpack and other materials. Was I getting a second chance at life? Even though no matter what I did I always ended up in a new place. My train of thought was interrupted by a low growl coming from behind me. I was met by nothing but I could see the nothing. It reflected a mist of my everlasting fears. Was this punishment? What did I do? The mist began to chase me but I wasn't running, my body was running, but I wasn't. It was like all this time I was looking at somebody else's life and I had a front row seat to their demise. I began to wonder if it would always be this way, if I was forever watching somebody die every second of my, no longer, life. This person that I guess was me for now had thought it lost the mist when it appeared out of thin air and pushed it or him or me into a hole in the ground, that wasn't there when we had stopped, but there was something different about where i was. I wasn't anywhere but I was somewhere. I was forever falling through pictures of my memories of my life and that's when I remembered who I was. I was Ella Elise. I am Ella Elise and that's when I woke up but this time I was in reality.
