I feel the cold damp ground touch my skin.
"Emma?" I look up to see jack "Lyra and me are going to try to find some food"
"I'll stay here" I say looking down "are you sure?" I nod, he walks off.
Jack's POV
We creep through the woods, Lyra walks over to a berry bush and starts picking.
We pick the berries in silence so when I hear a twig crack I jump. I look around to see soldiers in white and red uniforms running towards us with guns aimed,I push Lyra to the ground as I feel a sharp pain in my back.
I fall to the ground "JACK! AH!" Lyra falls to the ground next to me.
I feel myself drift away...into nothing but darkness....
