It started all the way back in 1903, Scarlett was working with the FBI to find the person who murdered her friend. One night she heard the sound of glass breaking, she looked around, then suddenly everything went black. She woke up seeing a stranger holding down the man who killed her friend, the FBI came through the door. The last thing she remembers is the stranger saying, "You owe me." Then left. That's how are story begins.
It was 1911 and Scarlett retired from working with the FBI. It was a normal day at home until she got a phone call from an unknown number. With her not thinking, she picked up the phone, "hello?" She said while sitting up on her twin sized bed. "You still owe me you know, I need your help with something." (Okay this is where things get quite stupid but my mind was running out of ideas at the time... I still don't know how to put it because my mind is blank). She remembers that voice, she didn't even thank him that night. Her hands started to shake remembering what had happened, she stayed silent. "Hello?" The man called from the phone. "Huh? Oh, yeah, yeah, I-I'm here. Um w-what did you need help with?" She stuttered, still shaken up from the event. There was a pause. "You must not tell anyone, got it?" He said with a stern voice. "Uh, yeah of course, I mean you helped me so I'll help you." She said with a quiet voice. Scarlett had no idea what was coming to her. Another pause. "Will you help me bury a body?" He said in a wicked voice. She sat there in shock not saying a word. Before he could say anything else she hung up the phone. "Maybe it was just a prank." She said to herself. She got a drink of her glass water that was sitting on the nightstand. It tasted funny. Before she could call 911, everything had turned fuzzy and black.
When she woke up, she wasn't in her house anymore. Her eyes half open, she could feel the tingling grass beneath her fingertips. She sat up rubbing her head. "Where am I?" Her eyes fully open looked around at her her surroundings, there were massive trees everywhere. "HOLY SH-!" Before she could finish her sentence, a woman popped up in front of one of the trees. Both of them jumped back from being startled. The women had long blonde hair with a yellow umbrella at her side, she was wearing a yellow looped cage dress that went down to her ankles. She held out her gloved hand to help Scarlett up. Thats when she saw the woman's eyes. They were pure white with her pupil only being faded and blue. Was she blind? Scarlett jumped back in fear not realizing how rude that is. "Y-your eyes!" She said, still laying on the ground. The woman tilted her head like a confused puppy dog and said, "What's wrong with my eyes?" Scarlett sat there in silence for a minute. "I-I'm so sorry I-I just never seen eyes like that before." "Okay?" The women said unsure of how to react. "Way to go Scarlett!" Scarlett said to herself. The woman reached out her hand again and this time Scarlett grabbed her hand to stand. "So um, where am I exactly?" Scarlett questioned. "Oh your in you're dream." Scarlett looked completely confused while just standing there in silence. "So, I need your help." The Woman started. "Please don't ask me to bury a body, I swear." Scarlett thought. "There is a war going on near by and I would really like it if you helped fight." "Okay this is worse!" Scarlett thought. She didn't want this, this was ridiculous, the person was crazy! "I'm sorry, I can't, I need to get home, sorry." She said politely. "I can help you get home but you need to help fight, otherwise there's no way home." Scarlett didn't want to risk her life just to have the easy way back home. When she was about to say no, all of the sudden she quickly said something else. "I'll do it." She didn't believe those words came out of her mouth, was she being controlled? "Impossible." Scarlett thought. Before she could say another word, her legs started to move and she ended up following the strange woman. All she wanted to do was to to run away from her but she couldn't. She followed her into a tent. It was filled with a couple of swords, guns, bows and plenty of arrows. "Where's the armor?" Scarlett questioned thinking out loud. "You don't need it." Again before she could protest, she was being controlled, she grabbed a gun and sword.
Next thing she knew, she was on a battle field with people she didn't know. So many things raised through her mind, why was she doing this? Why was she being controlled? She didn't want to do this, all she wanted was her converting bed and the music of My Chemical Romance in her ears while she sleeps. Tears formed in her eyes, she didn't want to hurt anyone. She fought to hold back her tears and everything happened at once, everyone including her was running, fighting for there lives. Time stood still. With sweat running down her face, she used her sword to fight. It seemed like forever but also so fast, later she got shot in the gut. Everything went fuzzy and blurry, then she closed her eyes. One of her closest friends barged in her room to see her laying on the ground with glass shattered all over the floor. Scarlett knew who the guy meant with asking to help bury a body, it was her. Scarlett didn't make it after that. The End.
