       "Is she going to be alright? "

       "Just give her time, she'll recover."

        ...Its broken...I don't know where it is. They say I lost my color. 'What do you mean? I haven't lost it! Hehe, I still have it!' I thought happily. No one died, this is just a dream. The cold air breathing in my arm and neck, the black liquid I call a heart. Soon I'll wake up from this dream. Soon I'll be in my mother arms,  telling her about my bad dream. Then she'll make me warm milk and let me eat a piece of cake, late at night.

           'Yeah...that sounds nice.' I thought as I walk down the grey sidewalk. I look up to see the grey sky, the sun white. Around me were black buildings, or giant rectangular boxes. The air was cold, I can hear voices in the distance. It almost sounds like a choir, music to my ears. I looked around the empty streets, it looked endless. It was almost peaceful to watch. I started to walk down in the middle of the street, enjoying the cool air, brushing my hair out of my face.

                     "Jessica?"

           I flinched and turn my body around to the loud voice but to see no one. I turn my head left and right, and then it spoke again. "Jessica."  I snapped my head to a black building. 'It's coming from there.' I thought. Suddenly the the wall of the black building started to melt and the liquid was pooling around me. "Jessica..." A shiver ran down my back, I started to panic. The wall was opening a portal, it was darker inside. My hair was flew past my face and felt the force of the air,  sucking me in.I tried to move my legs back but it wouldn't move.

          "Huh!?" I shouted, panicking even more. The black liquid was like glue and it dried. My feet felt very cold, I couldn't feel my toes. They were numb. My eyes started to welled up and tried to pull my feet out of the dry glue. "Jessica!"  I yelped, startled. I put my hands to my leg and pulled back, but my feet wouldn't budge. The pool of dried glue started to move inside the portal. I wheeze and scream. I shook my head, trying hard to pull my feet free. I gasp is suddenly slipped out. Then my body fling itself inside the portal. I scream, my back wasn't even touching the ground as the air was sucking me in. My other feet was stuck to the dry glue,  outside of the portal.

                 I realized I still had a chance, but how!? I cried for help, as the portal started to shrink. Whenever I tried to pull my head up, the air that is sucking me in force my head back down. My leg started to hurt, it felt like my bones were stretching. My side was in pain also, I was loosing hope. I cried out for help once more, and my pravers were granted. A white glowing circle came inside the portal and it was in front of my face. It then started to form as a human being and it arms were around my waist. They were warm against my cold skin.

             It started to pull me back and slowly out of the portal. But the portal was still shrinking, we were losing time. The thing holding me screeched as the portal around him touch his back. 'No...nononono please!' Their arms around me tighten, I desperately tried to hold on but my arms were being pulled back, I couldn't move them.

                    "HURRY!" I pleaded. The thing head turn to me and it started to glow grey. I gasp, "No stop! Be positive! We're going to make it out!" I encourage it. This seem to stop the grey from spreading it body. I continue, "Please hold on! Be strong! There's people out there that cares about you! I promise! Now pull us back so we can live with them in harmony!!" I shouted.
