BANG!
I shot out of bed with a cold sweat. I was naked, but I didn't know why, because I went to bed clothed... Must've gotten really warm in bed.
First, I grabbed some clean boxers and put them on, then a pair of blue jeans and a simple navy blue shirt.
I checked myself in the mirror. I think I looked ugly. Too big of a nose, and I looked very scrawny. I saw faded scars running vertically up my arms, from where I would slice my entire arm open and I would enjoy the red hot blood running down to the floor. I winced as I remembered the horrendous pain. Then I saw myself eye to eye. I think they were a little misshapen. No wonder nobody loves me...
I backed away from the mirror and went to my kitchen, which was super tiny considering that it only consisted of a small sink, a mini fridge, and a cupboard. I looked out the window in my kitchen and looked out to the forest. I noticed that the sun was in the west and the sky was sunset orange. I must've slept the whole day... I was about to look away when a small movement caught my eye.
A silhouette of a tall person shifted from side to side. My eyes nearly popped out of my head. My heart started to race, and I ran out my door.
I ran around to the side of my house that I saw that tall shadow from.
Gone.
I whined with sadness. Where did it go? Why did it go?
I felt depression wash over me and drive itself deep in my soul. I closed my eyes and listened...for a sound...for a person....for anything. All I heard was my breathing, my heartbeats, and and the throb of pain.
I opened my eyes and walked along the trail.
+++
I don't know how long I've been walking but I do know that it's dark. The crickets are chirping lively, and I can barely see a thing, and I've been walking for hours.
Then I walk onto something other than the trail. I am so confused that I keep walking but I stop after three steps. Then I recognize what I am on when I see two headlights, then I am smacked into the air, and into oblivion. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
