Regaining consciousness

     Black... It's so dark, I cant see a thing.
     All I can feel is pain. Where am I? There's a throbing pain in the back of my head. I try to reach up and touch the spot where it hurts, but I can't feel my arm. My entire body is numb, the only thing I can feel is pain.
    I try opening my eyes. It doesn't make a difference though, I can still can't see a thing. I close my eyes again, sudnely feeling tired. I layed there for I don't even know how long and slowly, I started to feel cold.
      I try moving my fingers slightly, then my whole hand. They move just like they should, but with a very dull pain. Slowly but surely, the numbness I felt turned to soreness and I started to shiver.
     It was so cold. I don't even know if it's day or night and I have no idea where I am. As much as I try, I can't remember anything, not even my own name.
     I slowly sit up, shivering and with a killer head ache. Reaching up to the painful spot on the back if my head, I notice a sticky almost liquid on my head and in my hair. Blood. As soon as my fingers lightly touch the spot, a searing pain shoots though my skull.
     I snatch my hand away, wincing in pain. I must have hit my head realy hard or something. That would explain why I cant remember anything and why I'm in so much pain.
     No matter how hard I try, I still can't see anything and now I'm starting to feel so cold, I think I might get frostbite. Cautiously, I sit up and hug myslef in an attempt to keep warm.
     Not too long after, I try to stand up. Once I'm on my feet, I walk forwards, arms streched out in front of me, takeing small steps. Soon enough, my hand touches a wall. If I just keep fowllowing the wall, I'll reach an exit eventually, right?
     Five or so miutes later, I see a light ahead of me. Continuing walking, I notice that the ground starts to tilt up. 
     As I reach the light, I relize that im outside, in a parking lot I think. There are stores all around me, but they were asumably deserted and there was broken glass all around.
     I slowly and painfully walk towards the closest store, in hopes of finding someone to help me. I walk in to the store and shout "Hello?" No response. I try again. Still nothing. What in the he'll is going on here?
     The store looked normal enough aside from all the broken windows and a few things that were knocked over. Looking around a bit, I find the first aid aisle and grab some bandages. Where is everyone? Why can't I remember anything?
     Slightly panicking, I find a coat and some granola bars. I make my way to the bathroom. If nobody's, I dont think anyone will notice if I take a few things. Once in the bathroom, I take a look in the mirror. I was, shockingly, pretty. Aside from a little bit of dirt on my face and me messy hair, I wasnt too bad looking.
     I had long, dark brown hair, bright gray eyes and a few freckles on my cheeks. I grabed the first aid kit and used the wash cloth to clean my face, then rinsed it out and got ready to clean the wound on my head.
     I touch the wash cloth to my head and suffer through the pain as I wash the now dried blood off of the area. Now, im no doctor, but I think its pretty bad. I grad the alcohol wipes and clean it out again, feeling probably the worst pain I've ever felt, but how should I know, I dont even know how old I am.
     I take the bandages and wrap them around my head. God, I hope this dosent turn out to be fatle. Just then I hear a bunch of stuff fall with a loud BANG! I race outside the bathroom only to see some of the shelves knocked over.
    "H-hello?" I ask, hopeing to see somebody there, but also scared to see someone at the same time. I here something move to my left. "I-is somebody there?" I stutter.
     Then I feel something behind me and every thing gose black.
