I didn't even realize that i had fallen asleep until i had woken up. There were snakes all over my legs eating the flesh and skin. I knew i was going to die.
For some reason it didn't hurt. It just felt like my mothers nails running up and down my legs.
I head a noise. It was the dark figure. It was dragging a little girl.
It walked over slowly to my cage. It opened the door, and threw the child in.
The small child was crying. Her little tears streaming down her dirty face. There was mud smeared on her face.
From then on i knew i had to protect her. So i pulled the snakes off my legs and then pulled myself out of bed. I limped towards the thick bars. The little girl started to scoot away. As if she was afraid.
When i reached the bars i kneeled down and let the snakes slither away, there mouthes full of my skin and flesh.
I stood back up onto my cut feet, trying to catch my balance. I start to limp over to the little girl.
" its ok " i said to her trying to stop her tears.
Her tears slowly stopped.
" my name is Jenna " i said trying to get her to calm down.
" my names Willow " she said in return
I wrapped my arms around willow and carefully pick her up. I limp back to my mattress. I don't want to fall because i know she will get hurt.
We finally reach the bed, i lay her down. I take off purple fuzzy robe and wrapped it around her.
She was really pretty.
She had light brown hair and had Hazel eyes. She was pale and had little crystal earrings. She looked no older than 5 years old.
Her light pink night gown had large rips. Her legs had many scratches and cuts. The bow in her hair was also torn.
I was so cold. All i had on was a cheetah tank top and black shorts, so I'm shivering rapidly. The chill bumps on my arms, and the straight hairs on my arms.
I wobble and limp over to the corner where the heated vent blows.
On my way to the corner i step on a large piece of glass. I scream and fall onto the hard ground. Everything goes dark.
My eyes open a little bit, only to find willow shaking me and trying to wake me up. I didn't really know was going on. All i could see was little glimpse of Willow.
My eyes opened once again, and i found willow crying under the robe on the mattress bed. I sit up and rub my eyes. I look at my foot. The glass was gone. But blood is still gushing from my wound.
" willow? " i said trying to see if she is ok.
" your alive!! "
She said as she got up and ran towards me. With her arms stretched out in front of her.
When she gets close enough to me, she sits down.
" By the way.. I pulled the glass out of your foot " she said reveling a large cut on her right hand. It was still bleeding, fresh wound. I pulled a large piece of fabric from my tank top. It was about to fall anyways.
I wrapped the fabric around her cut and tucked it in so it would stay in place.
" thank you for caring so much about me ". She said with a little smile on her adorable face.
.
I smiled and hugged her tightly.
I tried to stand. Finally i catch my balance i limp on one leg, struggling to reach the mattress. It feels like my mattress is miles away.
Finally i reach the bed and look down at willow.
She smiles up to me.
I see willow yawning. Then her eyes water.
" willow, come over here and try to get some sleep "
I said to Willow.
Willow stands up and walks over to me and lays down. I grab the purple robe and wraps it around her.
I hug her tight. Then lay beside her.
Finally i fall asleep.
