The next day we are told to meet in the Common section A. The room we've been going to for training.

We arrive and it's empty. We look around. There's nothing here, not even the equipment.

"What's going on?" Daisy asks but no one answers.

The lights dim then suddenly I'm falling.

Wait. No. I'm falling.

I can feel my body is still but my mind is giving it the impression of falling. Like in a dream where you know your dreaming of falling but you can't stop it.

My heart pounds and I can't see a thing. I try not panic but it's hard. When you're falling blind.

It's stops. The falling stops and I can see. I'm on my back looking up at a blue sky. I sit up and look around.

I'm in a forest I think. It's nothing like I've ever seen on earth. The trees and shrubs look luminescent.

I stand. The grass is short and purple. The forest seems to buzz with life even though I can't see anything.

The sky is a deep blue and not very bright.

I don't like this. How am I here? Did we arrive at the planet already? Did they just throw us out? The others! Where are they? Okay, focus.

I look around for a weapon. I pick up a dull maroon stick. I guess this will do.

I start walking through the foliage. It's dense and the air is thick and moist making it a little uncomfortable to breath.

It feels alive but I still haven't seen even one animal. Do I even want to?

I step over some black rocks and next thing I know, wind start blowing from my right so strong a fall over.
I try stand but it feels like I'm fighting a tornado. I get rolled and thrown but by some mericle, I don't hit any trees or rocks.

Finally I come to a stop. I slowly stand. Even though I didn't get hit by rocks, it stills hurts to be thrown around. I groan and stretch. That was unnecessary. The winds gone and I'm still lost.

I look at the high tree beside me. Looks like we're climbing.

I grab onto the first branch and hoist myself up. I finally reach the top sweating a bit.

I look over the tree tops. I see trees going on for kilometres with no end. I turn to look north and almost fall out the tree at what I see.

A tsunami of a wave approaches kilometres aways.

"Sh*t"

There's two things I could do. One, climb down and try make a run for it. Two, stay up here and hope the tree won't break as the water rushes below me.

I look at the wave moving fast in my direction. There is no way I'm out running that so I stay. Hoping that the wave doesn't wipe me out and to my disappointment, I'm washed off the tree. I tried to hold on but the initial smack of water threw me off. I hold my breath and get in a fetal position hoping I don't get a fatal injury.

My lungs start to burn and my body starts to go limb. I open my mouth to take a breath when suddenly, there's air. I'm spat onto the sand where I pant to catch my breath.

When I'm finally okay, I sit up to see I'm on the shores of a deep blue sea.

Wait, if this is the ocean where did the wave come from?

This was a shity chapter, i know. I'm just so excited to write the more interesting part after this.
