Land, land everywhere, but it's different from what I've see, Strange things I've never seen before. These things that appear to be coming from the land. The wall of our community has fallen down, bombs being dropped everywhere as a form of rebellion from other communities against our systems. They think they are rescuing us, but they are actually destroying everything I have. All my memories, all of our happy days here in the safe place, destroyed. Men are running in, climbing over the rubble of the wall, our only protection from elsewhere. One grabs my arm, I try hard to get away from his grasp but I am clearly much weaker and he drags me for my hiding place.  

They all have people, pulling them through all the rubble and into elsewhere. Taking us to these things that they keeping referring to as vans. One man yells "Get all young people and children first and put them in the vans. As soon as your van is full, leave." The "van" I am in has many other people. Some as young as fours and others probably well into their twenties. Not like it matters, no one keeps track of their age. I did however, I am 16 and would have been 17 in the coming December only 6 months from now. But that is only one of the many things they have just taken from us, our ceremonies. A loud sound cut through the air and we start to move, the woman next to me begins to cry. This "van" must be technology that we do not have here. 

We traveled for so long, I lost count of time. I tried to not think about it, everything that we had just lost. My mother. My friends, my assignment, which I have come to love so much. All of it, gone in 10 minutes.  

Minute 1 

Air crafts begin to fly overhead 

Minute 2 

Alarms start to ring 

Minute 3-6 

Missiles and bombs are dropped on the capital and our walls 

Minute 7 

I hid behind a large piece of rock from the wall 

Minute 8 

Men charge in to the community and of course I am immediately found and forced into this van. 

Minute 9 

I wait. 

Minute 10 

We leave.

We finally stop, the doors are thrown open letting sunlight in, blinding me for a second. We are helped out the vans and are walked to and aircraft. "Don't worry, we are taking you somewhere better, I know you may not think so, but there are other places to go, other places to see." A man says as we walk. I think in my head how could I get away. How could these men be good if all they did was drop bombs in our city, probably killing anyone in the capitol?  

The girl in my van, the one who was crying, seemed to have the same idea as I did. She ran, just started to run with no plan, no direction. But just ran. The injected her with something and she fell. "That is something called a sedative. It makes her fall asleep so she won't do that again. If anyone is too stressed and needs to sleep tell us so we can give you some" The man who pulled me from my place said. We are in the aircraft. A place that only pilots have ever been. But this one is larger and has places for other people. The aircraft begins to speed up, going faster and faster. I know there is no way out of this. No way to escape it so I just ask one of the men for a sedative. The needle goes into my arm with a sharp pain. I can immediately feel my eyes become heavier and my brain become foggy. 

"You are on your way to a better life. Remember that." A voice says as I drift off to sleep.

Ok so this is my new story. It is a harry styles fan fiction but this is just something to show how she got to where she will be in the next chapter. I'm a terrible writer as if you have ever read the Giver, then that is what the community is like, they don't know about murder or crime, sex, drugs, anything like that. The people get assigned spouses and children and they have to take pills to make them not attracted to people or want to do anything with them so yes there is a huge contrast. The people do not even lie. EVER. So she will put into the normal world. And who know what will happen :D

Please share this book and follow me on twitter: larrrysdaughter and make sure to vote and comment. If you like the idea and want this to continue. Maybe.
