April's POV
I woke up to the crisp mountain air. A chill racked my body. I slowly closed my fingers around the soft earth beside me, feeling frosty, wet leaves crunch in my grasp. Slowly, I sat up and rubbed my temple. What happened? Why was I-
It hit me like a train.
Jared was dead.
I had killed him.
The government was probably looking for me.
And I had to run.
Seeing as I was now a fugtive attempting the escape of lethal injection, (which is how they kill people now) I quickly stood up, alert to my surroundings. I first looked to see if there were any people, such as enforcers of the law, or EL for short. I took a breath and shakily walked towards a small pond nearby. The water was shallow and still, allowing me to see all the way to the bottom. As I stared at my reflection, I took in how terrible I looked. I was filthy. I couldn't go on like this. I had to take a bath in this pond.
I slowly eased myself into the water, gasping when it hit my waist line. I quickly scrubbed at myself, eager to get out of the freezing water and run around to warm myself up. As I climbed out, I took in my wet clothing. It slowed me down. I groaned but ripped my shirt. I shortened it a lot, and it showed my stomach. I hated it, I felt slutty, but it was necessary. I then pulled my sweatpants up and put my hair into a ponytail. I couldn't help but notice a pearly white rock gleaming on the ground. I bent over and picked it up, my breath catching when I realized it wasn't a rock:
It was a sharks tooth.
Do you know what that means? There are not sharks in the mountains...
Which meant it was somebody elses.
I clutched it and looked around. I hurriedly headed away from the pond, knowing that if there was someone else in the woods they would go to the pond for water. I couldn't risk being spotted.
As I was walking, I glanced back at the pond. I exhaled and turned around and
screamed.
Somebody took the sharktooth from my hand.
"I think that belongs to me."
Who do you think it is? :D This story is about to get interesting. >:) Well, I have a long trip to the mountains coming up, so ill update more then. Sound good? k! Also, in the sidebar is Aprils new outfit. Bye ~ Meg
