My eyes slowing open, my body feels as if I had just been hit by a train. As I try to stand up my head starts to spin and I fall back down and groan. I look down at myself, I'm still wearing my dress but it doesn't look as dirty as it was. Where am I? I glance around, everything is rock, I think I'm in a cave. I just lay there for a while, when I hear thumping over by a man-made hall to my left. A boy around my age but he looks a little older, walks in. At first he looks surprised, just standing there with his teal eyes wide open. then all of a sudden a grin grows on his face.

"What?" I say raising my eyebrows looking at him.

"I thought you were gonna die," he says, turning his smile into a small puppy dog face.

"Where am I? Who are you? Why was I brought here?" I ask quickly almost passing out from all the thinking.

" Whoa, calm down, you look pale," he sates," here, let me go get you some food and water, then we will talk."

"Fine," I nearly jump with excitement at the thought of food and water. The thought makes my mouth water, apparently the stranger standing in front of me notices and nearly laughs to death while he walks away. When he is gone, I get up slowly, walking around the.............. room, I guess you could call it that. It's all rock, and there is only a rock bed, and a hallway I saw the guy walk from. I am about to go wandering through the hall, but I am interrupted when a tall broad body bumps into me. From how weak I am the bump knocks me onto my feet. As I fall all my muscles strain and feel bruised. I look up to see his almost mistakenly black, but really dark brown stern eyes staring at me.

"Now, what were you doing?" the broad figure booms.

".........wandering," I stamper.

The figure just stands there with just a straight face, but his eyes read as furious. Before I can say anything else the stranger with the teal eyes walks back in humming, but stops,  the smile leaving his face as he stares at me and the dark brown eyed stranger.

"Here is your food," he says slowing walking to the bed sitting down and placing the food and water there. The smell of it knocks me out my trance.

"So who are you guys?" I ask

"I'm Drew, Drew Peirre," he says offering a smile. I smile back. I stare at the dark eyed stranger waiting for a response, he seems to be in a trance as well. he looks at me with fiery still in his eyes, but it starts to fade as he says.

"I'm Keath James," he says in monotone while pushing his light brown hair out of his face.

"Nice to meet you guys, I'm Tamzine, Tamzine Aldrete." I say smiling.

"You're a rigid, aren't you?" Keith asks frowning.

"A rigid?" I question, confused.

"They're the people who are from society, they don't belong here," he states as he clenches his fists.

"Keith, even if she is, everyone who wants to rebel can rebel! Don't ruin her dreams!" shouts Drew.

"What if she is a spy?" he says.

I start to grow angry, their speaking of me as if I'm not there.

"If that is what a rigid is then yes, that is what I am! But I am certainly not, a spy. I am a rebel!" I shout as Drew looks at me surprised," what! Never seen a rigid scream before." Drew snorts at that.

"No, it's just that I'm impressed, a pretty little thing like you is really feisty." Drew says, giving me a sly grin as Keith roles his eyes and says.

"Whatever, she doesn't belong here, we will soon find anything we need to know at interrogation night." he booms while stomping away. I role my eyes and snort at his childness.

"So, back to buisness," Drew says as his teal eyes sparkle and pushes his dark brown hair to the side.

"Okay, so how did I get here?" I ask slowly.

"I found you passed out in the canyons,so I carried you all the way here to what a cave in the far canyons, you have been asleep for about a week, so everyone assumed you were going to die ." he says simply.

"Well, what if I was a spy, why would you take me in?" I ask

"Well, you were just so darn sexy in your dress and shoes covered in sand and I thought that you couldn't possibly be a spy and I just could not resist your gosh darn beauty." he says grinning and looking off into the distance. I smack him on the arm, bringing him back to reality.

"Oh, shut up, I could be a spy!" I say defiantly. He laughs as I say this absurd statement.

"So your turning yourself in, are you?" he says giggling.

"No, It's just that your underestimating me!" I scream.

"Psh, see so feisty and defiant, tsk tsk," he says while waving his finger.

"If you don't shut up I will take that stupid finger of yours and shove it up your ass!" I say threatning him. He holds his hands up in defense trying hard not to burst out in tears of amusement.

"Hey, just pointing out the obvious." he states

"Well, I don't need you to, okay?" I say.

"Noted," he says," Now eat your food and get some good rest, tomorrow is a big day. We get to interrigate you to decide if you stay or not, and I'll tell you more about everything tomorrow, welcome to the rebellion."
