❛❛ welcome to the glade, greenie ❜❜

————————————————



A boy wakes up to complete darkness. The world around him was moving and making strange sounds. Sounds of screeching and scratching. As the world moved, so does he.

Thoroughly perplexed, unable to remember anything. He wasn't sure where he is, but all he knew is that the ground beneath his body was moving, moving fast and shaking. He forced himself up, hands on the ground, only the field felt like he was on a metallic fence, attempting to check his surrounding as the world moved fast upwards, crawling around until his head met walls, walls on his left, to right and ceiling. He finally realized that he was in a moving elevator descending.

What was even more strange is his unknown memories, his mind was memoryless, he was unable to remember anything, anyone or five minutes ago. He couldn't also remember what he was doing before he fell asleep, before this. There was not a single familiar face in his mind, not even his mother, his father, his sibling or friends. No one. But there was something he remembered . . .

Poe. My name is Poe. Poe.

It made it worse and even stranger. How can Poe remember his name but not anything else? It was like everything had been stripped from him as if his old life had been erased and given a new one.

This is his new life. This is the moment where Poe begins his new life.

"Help!" He had found his voice. He screamed. "Somebody! Help me!"

But the world was louder, it continued to screech and scream, overpowering Poe's continuous screams. Something else was crying, it was next to Poe, an animal noise. He could not see what everything around him looked like, but he could feel rags, boxes, cylindrical objects, multiple shapes of objects. His hands found a larger box where the animal noises are coming from.

Then, the world abruptly stopped, sending Poe back down onto the floor. It stopped, and everything was in silent like the world finally stopped screaming. Another noise erupted above, a rumbling sound and something was sliding. Light. There was light. The light that stabbed his eyes, he faced down, eyes closed. The light had warmth his skin; next, there were voices, actual being's voices.

He attempts to look up, but his eyes were still too sensitive to the light, and he had taken a moment to adjust it. There were voices and the sounds of snickering.

"Get him, Alby" a boy's voice was heard.

When Poe looked up again, he saw shadow human figures, all blurry, the daylight behind those shadowy human figures; there was a large square opening where the door had opened, those human figures standing and surrounding the box he was in, all of them looking down at him.
