Fire. My dream is on fire. Then I hear the sirens. Then I smell the smoke, and then I realize..... it's not a dream. "Anna!!!" I jump out of my matress at the sound of my sister screaming my name. "Aubri! Where are you?!" I start stumbling blindly through all the haziness, every hint of sleep completely shaken from my body. I didn't even know that I was running until I slammed right into my sister. "Aubri, what's going on?" It's a stupid question. I can already see the clouds of smoke coming in through the vents in the floor. Judging by the thickness of it, the fire has just reached the floor below us. I can already feel the intense heat. "The orphanage is on fire," my sister explains. "When no one knew where you were, I came back for you." I'm about to reply, to tell her that she shouldn't have. That it was too dangerous, but then the floor beneath my feet goes crashing to the ground. Somewhere in the midst of the chaos, I scream my sister's name. Then I feel hands grab me and pull me. Then everything goes dark.
