 I woke up with scars. I did not have a shirt on and felt wood against my back. There were scars along my side where I got shot. The scars started at the middle of my back and went around my side and went to my belly button. I felt my wrists burning. I tried to move my wrists but I could not. They must've been frozen.I could see nothing a foot away from me but darkness. I thought I was in hell until I saw fire. Three people in brown cloaks came over and set down coals and sticks and wood next to my feet. I tried to scream but was frozen, I could not move either.

I saw one of them say something but I could not hear what. Another figure came up with a torch lit on fire. He came over and started reciting lines. I could hear these lines.

"Supernatural must die"

"Their bones will lie"

"In the place"

"Where our ancestors got killed"

The figure repeated this several times before walking over and sticking the torch near my face. It was cold. So cold. He brought the torch down and smashed the wood near my feet.

It was cold. But not freezing. Which was strange. I did not have hypothermia yet. The fire reached my ankles, my knees. My hips. My legs were freezing but were burnt. It went up to my chest. I struggled to move.

Then it reached my chest and my head.

And then there was nothing.
