Few Days earlier

"Atem..........Adam...I wish you were here, I wish you were with me right now...right now"

A haunted voice in the darkness called out it felt so alone here I had to reach her, I had to get back to her...that women...the warmth

blinding light

Where Am I the ground was cold and wet as I lifted myself up. I looked up to the sky what was this place. The buildings were so tall on such a narrow street that smelled of death and piss. I heard a loud bashing noise heading towards the opening of the narrow alley I large object shot across the street that made me jump

*Beep Beep*

What in Ra's name is that thing I peered over the edge to notice many of those loud objects 

but what really made me jump was an old women and a wagon of some sorts that she pushed

"Oh dear..."her voice soft and frail what was such a women doing out here? she smelled awful and it looked like everything she owned was in that little wagon

"Here son, you cant be walking around the city in the nude you'll be taken to jail!" She handed me a black cloth and some other piece of fabric, I stood there staring at her as her face grew puzzled 

"whatever drugs your doing you need to quit it and get help, you might want to hide that shiny necklace too, the boys around here might take that as payment" 

I swallowed hard I had no idea what this women meant but I did realize I was nude in front of an elderly women. I opened the black fabric and tossed it over my head, 

"Ah much better" the women said "but...your pants? thats the most important...dont show those parts off to just anyone" she joked

I embarrassingly looked away and figured out how these...pants? worked. 

She paused a moment pressing her finger to her cheek "Ah here!" she tossed me shoes, I knew exactly what those were. "Those should fit you perfectly" 

The women smiled a toothy smile before patting my on the head 

"Good luck son"

I made my way finally out of the alleyway and that awkward in counter. 

I placed my hands around the object around my neck I knew this object it felt apart of me. I began walking around the streets observing the people of this place, and the strange activities.

It began to get dark and cold as I explored realizing I needed to find a place to say I started knocking on doors which either I got yelled at or no response. The people on the streets however were very kind and helped me keep warm next to the fires they made. Many stories they told and I learned much from them. 

It wasn't until a few days later I came across something, an exhibit with my puzzle as the center display. My eyes widened as I asked around where this place was, luckily I was given directions though led me..the completely wrong way i managed to find myself in front of the monumental building.

I hurried in rushing to the Exhibit only to see that the place where my puzzle once sat was empty my stomach sank.

It was the sudden grasp of an unfamiliar women that made me jump

she seemed nerved and yet familiar. 

we headed to her office for a conversation i wasn't sure how it would go as I had no idea how i came to obtain the item that i know realized was stolen.

I explained to her I had no idea, and what had happen the past few days to which she vomited violently into a fire bin. I felt like my presence was bothering her but she insisted on me staying with her, I couldn't really refuse. It was the smartest thing to do. at least that's what the street people told me.

Presently

We had to sneak out of there apparently she was being so odd i wasn't sure I should stay with her. 

"uhm, Ms, uhm-"

"Please call me Evelyn" she whispered hasty 

"So-sorry, but what are we doing?" 

She was peeking over the edge of a hall way before pressing her finger to her lips 

"Shhh!" 

I stood back swallowing hard, this was indeed a bad idea.

She took my hand quickly and started running to her car which nerved me I had never been in a car, I was no longer weary of them now that I had been explained to what they were

she quickly ducked my under a jacket from the back

"Do not move until I tell you" she spoke again most bossy. 

I groaned

"Shh!"

It felt like ages before i heard the sound of gravel and peaked over the jacket to a large house it was beautiful unlike anything in the city

"We're here" She smiled at me in such a way it made my heart light up. I wasnt sure why but she felt warm.
