This time I really woke up. From what must've been a terrible nightmare. I was sweating and shivering at the same time.

But I was lying on the ground. I saw feet near me and heard their voices.

I tried to stand, but found my legs as wobbly as before. I fell again.

Tears streaming down my face, I laid there.

A pair of strong arms scooped me up, this time it really was Aaron.

I squirmed a bit, and he kissed my forehead.

"Lil, we've gotta get outta here, now. Can you walk at all?"

"I-I can try, but no promises."

He set me down and my legs were fine, I was okay to walk.

He held me up and we started at a slight jog. I couldn't handle much more. I was a bit dizzy and everything around me wouldn't stay still.

We ran until we came across a small house, I don't think any of us could even take another step, so we went inside...

It was a cozy little four room shack. There was the main room, what appeared to be a kitchen, a small bedroom off to the side, and to other small rooms to the other side.

In the kitchen there was a small table with five chairs surrounding it, Aaron helped me to one if them and I sat down. Brianna looked through the cupboards and found a dusty glass, she crossed to the sink and, oddly enough, it worked. She cleaned the glass the filled it up and brought it to me.

I drank it all in one breath, it was a relief for my upset stomach.

But I soon was back in reality, the full force if this situation caught me off guard.
