Lyla looked at her phone as it rang, it took her a moment to realise, how in the world is this ringing? But she picked it up slowly and put it to her ear, "Hello? Who is this?" Lyla asked into the phone, "Is this Lyla?" Said in a deep voice on the other end of the phone, "Yes, and whom are you?" Asked Lyla again. "I am Kumi." Replied Kumi. "I work in a group called The Bank. We are trying to protect the rest of the world, we want just you, and any animals you have. Only pets, we want to protect you." Offered Kumi slyly. Lyla was a bit hesitant on replying."I don-" Started Lyla but then a mind numbing sound came from the phone, and when it stopped, she would still see and hear, but her body moved on it's own, she tried calling out, but no sound was made. The morning she left, she still couldn't move, and "she" called Gwen over and walked out the door, said stiff and unfriendly goodbyes and left. To be honest Lyla was terrified, she couldn't imagine what was going through the boys heads, "I bet she was in on ALL of this!" "She was never our friend!" She shuddered at these thoughts, but of course she could only shutter in her mind. As she rod north east, she realized she was going to need thicker clothes, all she had was a thin t-shirt, jeans and a backpack. As the days got cold and the nights got freezing, whoever was controlling her, broke into a clothing shop, and put on around five layers and a coat, scarf, gloves and a hat. She was the definition of a snowman, though Lyla as she laughed at her joke in her head.
