Courage Don't Leave Me

History

After introducing myself to the two men sitting at the island that happened to be Dimitri's beta Emmett and gamma Xavier I showed myself out. As soon as the door closed behind me I took in a deep breath.  There were trees everywhere. They lived in the middle of the forest as opposed to living just along the forest line. It was gorgeous. Just a few feet from the house and I could already hear a small waterfall. I glanced around a few times to make sure I wasn't being followed before following the sound of the water. I trekked through the trees for a good solid hour before I came to a stop at a stream. I looked towards the end where it dropped off and started my way to the end. 

Once I reached the end of the stream where it dropped off I pushed myself through the giant bushes blocking my view and sidestepped to look out across the horizon. The water gushed down into the large lake below and soon turned back into a stream again to continue further through the forest. I took a seat upon a log set next to the fall and enjoyed the rise of the sun. I watched as the heat waves crawled over the forest. I looked down at the green forest floor and admired the patch of Dandelions growing around the log. 

Curiously I turned around and saw a trail of picked flowers leading back into the forest. With intense excitement and a dire urge to play with the beautiful flowers I followed the trail back into the forest. My mind flashed back to my dream last night and suddenly I was a little girl running through the flowers in the field. I could hear my giggles and the shuffling of feet behind me as I was being chased by the young kid with the black hair. I squealed in excitement. When I came back to I was standing in a meadow of flowers. 

I spun in circles trying to remember how I got here, but when I turned a 360 degree circle and couldn't find any woods in site I began to panic. Great. Just good job Nevaeh. You got us lost. I tried to pull Ava to the forefront of my mind, but I couldn't feel her presence. Now I truly started to freak. I ran. I had no idea where I was going I just hoped it was out. 

I ran in a straight line for a solid three hours before giving up. I reached into my pocket to find my ninja stars to play with in the meantime so I could think. But they weren't there. I then proceeded to look for the rest of my weapons on my body when I left the house this morning and found nothing. Now I was hyperventilating and screaming. 

"SOMEBODY!! ANYBODY!! HELP ME!!!!!!" but to no avail. I was lost and in a desert remote area with no means of protection or my best friend. My mind wandered back to Zaiden all cuddled up in bed back at the pack house. What happened if I couldn't get back to him? Will they abandon him? Leave him out to natures brutal life or drop him off in a basket on a mortals doorstep? Will I ever have the chance to see him again? 

Now with the energy I had left I sat down in the middle of the meadow and played with an orange rose. An exact replica to the one in my dream. It finally dawned on me that maybe it wasn't a dream, but just a memory that I don't remember having. In that moment I did the most ridiculous thing possible and called out his name. 

"Dimitri! Dimitri where are you? Please help me i'm scared. Dimitri!!!! Where are you? I don't want to play games right now!" and of course it didn't work. I felt the whisper of something in my mind and knew exactly what to do. I had my orange rose now I had to run and hide. Like a child afraid of the dark I ran through my memory until I found the treeline. Once I dove behind a tree and sat down did I start to calm down. 

Still having no idea where I am or what's happening I call out again. This time using his pet name. 

"Mitri...please I don't understand this. Help me. I'm terrified." I trembled and curled into a ball at the base of the tree waiting for him to come save me. My head lolled to one side and I fell into a peaceful sleep. When I woke up I was laying on the log by the edge of the waterfall where I had started out. Startled I sat upright and shoved around in my head looking for Ava who was just coming out of the trance with me.
