I woke up. I was in a tent. A thunderstorm was booming outside. I leaned my head out of the tent. People were rushing everywhere. The people weren't exactly people though. They looked like me. Someone ran up to me. They started talking to me. I couldn't understand what he was saying. Then, a different species of alien walked into the camp. He had four arms and eight eyes. His eyes were purple. He had black hair. He looked at me. Someone pushed past him. I stepped all the way out my tent.
A man pushed past me then, apologized as he looked at me. The strange man at the entrance approached me.
"Acacia." He said.
I could fully understand him.
"Xavier." I said not knowing how I knew his name.
"Acacia you have to get to the med tent, something happened."
Xavier led me around the camp. Finally, we stopped at a greyish green tent. I cautiously opened the flap. Lying on a cotton cot was Naomi. She had a deep gash on her cheek and looked pale. I gasped. Vindosile was sitting next to her, holding her hand. Tears were running down his face.
"Acacia." She cried.
"Naomi." I whispered
Suddenly she looked pained. A doctor looked at me grimly. I left the tent and started to cry. For some reason I felt like it was my fault.
Then, I woke up.
