Her brain was scattered and it's like the feeling of wind hitting her face, made her think of everything at once. Tears streamed down her face, making it difficult to see as she sped randomly down the road. She wiped at her eyes, trying to make them stop but instead she hit something in the road, causing her to flip and fly out of her seat. She rams into the pavement and slides against the hot ground, feeling her skin scraping off.

She stood up slowly, the scrapes on both her arms and some on her face stinging as she moved. She looks over to see she ran over a dead body. The stench made her nose cringe and stomach wretch.

She forces herself to turn away, towards her overturned ATV. Something caught her eye though, explosions and echoing gunshots high up from a mountain top. It caught her breath as she watched a large statue of what looked like Joseph start to crumble and fall to the ground. A yellow and red plane was spinning and attacking the large structure. She'd recognize that yellow plane anywhere and so she pushed over her heavy ATV and drove towards the mountain.

She crosses under a bridge with some white sheets and a moose skull, soon passing under a sign that says Welcome. The gunshots and explosions got louder, and she watched the skies as she got closer. She jumps and stumbles off her four-wheeler and heads up the hill, staying hidden behind some rocks. She watches the planes flip and turn but some mayonnaise colored helicopters came out of nowhere and shot down the yellow plane. Chills run down her back and she gulps. Nick...

She starts heading to where she saw the plane disappear behind the trees but a bomb dropping made her shoot back against a trunk, leaving her with ringing ears and her body aching. She holds her sides as she watches her vision blur around her. She hears some yelling but then she sees a figure staring down at her. She narrows her eyes, trying to see but they just pick her up, throwing her over their shoulder.

She slips in and out of consciousness, seeing the boots of the one holding her. Who...?

She goes black again, waking up with a big headache. She looks around, seeing that she was cuffed to one of two bunk beds. She noticed bandages over the scraps on her arms and she felt a bandage on her cheek as well. There was a table in the middle of the room, fireplace to the left, desks, chairs, and a small kitchen area. It looked like just a regular cabin. There was also a woman looking out of the door's window. A cultist...

It was until the woman turned around; her heart dropped to her stomach.

"Mads..."

"Lil sis..."

Her older sister had on a white sweater with no sleeves, black pants and boots. Her hair was down and ragged and it was never like that but, she noticed another thing too. Her curly light hair had red tips. She also had a sniper in her hands, eyeing her as if she were prey.

"What are you..."

"What were you doing at Raptor's Peak?" Maddy interrupts her.

"What? Why are you dressed like that?"

"I'm surprised you haven't converted yet..."

"Converted?"

"You haven't joined us sis. I can convince you though..." She turned around and had a small green barrel at her feet. She picked it up and opened the lid, revealing a smoky green substance. She backed her head away from it, but she ended up breathing it in anyway. Her vision gets all blurry and her head starts to rise. "I want you to meet someone special..."

All she sees is white until she is met with green grass. She felt high in the clouds as she got up on her feet. All around her was grass and flowers, trees and towering over her. She is enticed by the beauty of the nature around her. Butterflies fluttered past her face, and she felt herself smile. If only life was this beautiful all the time.... She starts to narrow her eyes, realizing that life wasn't this perfect all the time, but she heard a voice behind her. She turns around, seeing Mads. She looked happy as she felt the tall grass. Then a woman appeared at her side. She had dirty blonde hair and a white dress that bore flowers.

"You love it don't you?" She asks, smiling sweetly at her. "Nature and it's beauty."

She nods, finding herself looking around at it all once again. She notices Mads and the girl is gone.

"I'm Faith." She hears the voice in her head. "Maddy has told me a lot about you."

She feels the grass push at her ankles and she looks down, seeing a white flower.

"I brought you flowers." She hears from behind her. She blinks a few times, recognizing that voice. The voice of a boy who once had her love. It was only a year ago, yet it felt as if his hands were still on her. She turned to the male who had light blonde hair. He was cute, but his insides were rotten. The trailer park wasn't exactly a place with great people, but it was all she had. He was the only one there she would hang out with other than her siblings and the pregnant lady.

"I'm sorry about everything I did... You know I didn't mean it." His voice dripped with venom as he stepped towards her. "You still love me, I know it."

He grabs her chin, pulling her face up. She hadn't looked into his eyes, but she remembered the green orbs that would glare at her, but then admire her all in one day. The lips that would lie and kiss her in the same moment. She felt weak in his hands.

"I'll give you whatever you want..." He says, his hands pushing her messy hair out of the way. "However you want it."

His words were not familiar. He would always talk about what he wanted. He never asked what she wanted. She narrows her eyes and puts a hand on his chest.

"No you won't" She says softly.

"What?"

"You are selfish. You don't care about what I want.." She says, pushing him a bit harder. He stumbles back and her vision gets brighter. She looks around, hearing a girl chuckle.

"Maddy doesn't want you to leave." She feels like she is spinning as her eyes search the trees.

"Shut up... She hates being called Maddy! It's Mads!" She yells and kicks at a white flower that has a green aura. As she does, her vision gets even brighter and suddenly she sits up, panicking. She is thrashing her limbs, but she feels herself being held down.

"Calm down kid!"

"Let me go!" She screams, seeing a woman holding a long needle.

"Listen to us! We are trying to help you!" A guy yells

"That bliss will mess you up! Let us do this!"

Bliss? That was...

Her memory shoots back to the cabin with her sister as she stops struggling. She feels the pain in her chest, and she calms down, her breath slowing. She watches the people that held her down step back and the woman who jabbed her with the needle.

"What was that...?"

"Adrenaline. You pushed yourself out of the bliss... so we have to make sure you are clean."

She blinks a few times, "My...my sister..."

"You were alone when some hunters found you." She shakes her head, and she closes her eyes, feeling exhausted. "Get some rest kid."
