Chapter two-

I wake up to a nudge on my shoulder.

"Wake up sleepy head." I herd someone say in a childish voice.I open my eyes to reveal a

brunet girl looking at me with kind brown eyes. She smiles as she sees me awake."Good!"

She exclaimed, " I was starting to think you were dead." She started to giggle so I joined in.

" I guess I'm a deep sleeper."

The girl started to burst out into laughter. "I'm Elizabeth but everyone calls me Liz!" She said.

"Emma" I replied, "do you mind telling me where I am?"

Liz chuckled, "your in the resistance!"

My jaw literally dropped to the floor. "You m-mean I'm n-not in the city?" I stuttered as I

sat up from my bed.

"Yes," Liz answered.

I could feel a smile crack my face, I can't believe there is a resistance

after all this!

"But how did I get here, who was that boy who tossed me?" I uttered with a

demanding tone. Liz stopped smiling and looked down at her hands. "I-I'll tell you more

later." Liz speeded out the door. She looked like she was ready to cry.

I got up and looked around the room. It was small but big enough to hold a bed, dressier,

and a shelf with a mirror on top. The walls were covered with worn out yellow wall paper

with red roses and green vines spread out. The corners of the wallpaper were drooping

down. This wall paper was obviously worn out. Sitting on top of the dresser was a pair of

jean shorts and a purple shirt that Liz set out for me. I undressed taking off the smelly

clothes slowly because my whole body is sore and beaten up from my run last night.

The smooth cotton felt great against my skin, it was defiantly the highlight of my year. Yes I

said year. I walked slowly toward the old wooden door and opened it enough to take a peek

through. There was a long dark hallway with lights flickering on the sides. They were so old

that they barely gave off enough light to see my legs. I tip-toed to the corner of the hallway

and suddenly heard voices.

"I heard that someone saw another one last night." A boy said.

"God! That's like the 5th one this week. Do you think there looking for it?" Someone uttered.

"We'll duh you idiot!" The boy shot back laughing.

As soon as they walked past I followed keeping my distance. What did they see? What was

it looking for? Tons of questions flashed through my mind, the curiosity was killing me!!!

As I reached the end of the hallway the two boys swiped a card and entered the door

I rushed over and blocked the door from closing. I walked over to the corner that the boys

turned and suddenly was lifted off the ground by strong arms. The boy looked at me in

shock. "Oah sorry," he said as he put me down, "I thought I heard someone following us."

"I'm sorry I should have said something." I apologized .
