~Prologue~

*Sky's POV*

I groaned as I sat up. I was on the side of an empty road. It looked old, dirty, cracked, and pretty much abandoned. I looked at my surroundings. Nothing seemed... normal. I suddenly felt a sharp pain in my head, like my brain was trying to stop me from remembering something. The sharp pain went away. I stood up, and the sharp pain came back. I fell to the ground and sighed. How did I get here? I wondered. The sharp pain came back. Then my life, my PAST life, flashed right before my eyes.

"SKY!" I heard somebody scream out. With a smile plastered on my face, I hit the ground. The millisecond of pain felt nice. I felt like I needed it. Like it was the missing piece to my puzzle. My vision turned black, and all the pain went away. The person's voice was gone. Everything was gone, except for one thing. The box.

I slowly put my hand in my pocket, and pulled out a little box. It was black and very dusty. I opened it and inside of it was a ring. It was outlined in black and had a green gem, maybe an emerald, in the middle. On the sides, there were words engraved in it. I love you. Was I going to propose to someone? I shrugged and put the box back in my pocket. Suddenly, a painful thought came into my head. Was that the box from my... past life? I just pushed the thought aside and stood up. This time, there was no pain.

I looked off in the distance over all the trees and saw buildings. Maybe I can find people there. I started moving towards the buildings, hoping to find someone that can help me. Maybe a doctor, or even someone just to comfort me. As I came closer to the buildings, I found out it was a city. The city of Pittsburgh. I was in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

The city was loud and very busy. Cars were driving past, the homeless were asking for money, and people were just walking around, as well as laughing and having a good time. I walked around, but nobody seemed to notice me. I spotted a girl who was sitting on a bench. She had big, nerdy glasses on. She wore headphones and held an iPhone in her hand. She's probably listening to music. I walked over to the bench and sat down next to her. She saw me, then took off her headphones.

"Hi." She quietly said.

"Hi." I replied. We both stayed silent. We awkwardly looked back and forth at eachother, not knowing what to do.

"My name is Jessica." She finally said.

"My name is Sk-" I paused for a second. But, I wasn't in control. Some force was. Some force stopped me from saying that name. Deep down I wanted to say a different name... because I felt like it belonged to me. But the only word I could choke up was, "Adam." She nodded.

"Cool name. You seem lost."

"I... am. I am lost. I've never been here before, butI know this is Pittsburgh."

"Well, how about tomorrow you meet me here, and then I could bring you to school and show you around a bit; you seem my age. Tomorrow is Monday, you know?"

I thought for a moment, then replied. I don't even know this girl and I was already starting to befriend her. "Sure."

Jessica smiled. "Well, I gotta go. See you tomorrow then, Adam. Or could I call you Skadam? You seemed to have wanted to say 'Sk' instead of 'Adam'."

I chuckled. "Call me whatever you want."

"Well, bye," She chuckled. "Skadam." Jessica stood up and left. I looked up at the sky, and saw that it started to get a little dark. I reached in my back pocket, and pulled out a wallet with about 100 dollars in it, a driver's license for Adam Dahlberg, and a coupon for McDonald's. It also had a credit card, which will be very useful. I looked around and saw a sign for a hotel. "Fairmont Pittsburgh Hotel! A 4-star hotel!" A place to stay... that's what I need. I started walking to the hotel.
