My head aches where am I? How did I get here and what's going on? Then I feel a burning sensation across my arm. I reach for my sleeve and tug it upwards to reveal a slice, dry blood around it. I try to stand up but my legs shake and I'm numb everywhere..eventually I stand with the help of a nearby tree branch, still holding my arm I stumble as I walk to find something,anything to help me.

"Hello?"
I cry but no one answers
"Please help me!"
My voice comes out as a whisper and of course there's still no reply, I can't hear anything except the distant sound of a cricket chirping, that's when I see it. An old abandoned house, it's made old dark moldy wood, i can barley see it. I stumble towards it my feet crunching against the cold wet grass.

I finally reach the house, I place my hand on the rail of the steps and slowly walk up, the wood making a creaking noise after every step.

I reach for the door, the knob is cold and rusted, I twist it and it unlocks but the door is stuck, I push my body against the door ramming into it the door opens and I fall to the ground. Dust flies around me as I stand with shaky legs. I search for a switch or a light and finally find a lamp. I reach underneath and with a quick flick it turns on, light surrounds me overtaking the darkness of the room and I can finally look around. There are old pictures and paintings hung across the walls with spiderwebs across, the walls are painted a white color but most of the paint is off.
*cough*
I swing around to find no one?
