"What are we supposed to do?"

"This can't be good."

"Maybe they want us to reproduce?"

"Shut up, Jeff."

"We should get ri-"

Before the deep voice could finish the sentence, the small girl shot up with a gasp. Her heart thudded in her chest, as she breathed in and out rapidly, trying to catch her breath.

Her bright eyes flickered around every area of the room, until they landed on a dark skinned boy, who had rushed to her side, and held out a cup of water.

The girl, although was dying to down the cool liquid, moved away from the boy, almost falling off the makeshift bed she was on.

The few boys that were behind the one who was trying to help her, gave her curious looks, as if she was a strange, exotic creature.

She recognized one of the boys, the mean looking one who helped her out of the Box she was in. He was looking at her with narrowed eyes, and an intimidating stance, which caused her to shrink under his harsh glare and move her eyes to the other two boys.

The shorter of the two stepped forward, hands raised as to tell her to relax.

"Calm down," He said, slowly stepping forward, "you're gonna be okay, just calm down."

She forced herself to take deep breaths in order to calm herself, but she was in a foreign place, with no memory of how she got there, where she came from, or who she was.

The boy, assuming she was calm, took another step closer, smiling softly at her. However, the girl grew tense, and reached for a medical pan beside her, before swinging, almost hitting the boy in front of her.

"Woah!" The angry looking boy shouted, going to grab her, while managing to successfully get hit in the head with the pan.

While he was down, she quickly took the opportunity to run out of the room. She hurried out of the only door, and was met with a bright light, causing her to go blind momentarily.

When her vision returned, she saw that a few of the boys were beginning to stop and stare, and she panicked.

She pushed her small legs to run to what looked like a forest, only to hear yelling behind her.

She paid no attention to the warnings of the boys behind her. And just kept running.

She turned to see if anyone was following her, as her foot caught over a root from a large tree, causing her to trip, and fall to the ground.

She laid there for a moment, in temporary shock, before breathing out, and standing up. She took in her surroundings, expecting birds to be flying, and the forest to seem peaceful. Instead, she was met with old, cracked bones, and old trees that gave her an eerie feeling.
