It was a wonder that I was even alive. The smoldering cottage that lay in rubbles around me had come crashing down, with no hope of repair. No one had been there to rescue me, neither had anyone been there to witness who had done it. The last remaining wall of the cottage sagged and shuddered to the ground, letting off a puff of smoke. At this the I began to move, struggling mostly against weariness but also from a dangerous amount of smoke in my lungs. As I removed myself from my bed, if it could even be called a bed, I fell into a fit of coughing.
I looked up, bleary eyed and just sat there. Every part of my humble abode was burned to dust. At first, all I could think about was how it happened and who had done it, but another stronger quarry flooded my mind. How had I survived? And how did I even sleep through it?! Looking down at my skin, I didn't see any blemish, no bruise, no cut no...nothing. I tried to remember what happened the night before. I hadn't been running away from anybody or anything, so why would my little cottage be burnt toast? Without warning another coughing fit hit me and I could do nothing more than slump down on my hands and knees and beg my ragged lungs for more oxygen. I had to think, I had to process what was going on. But for the life of me, I couldn't manage to get my brain to work. I couldn't remember anything from the night before except that I had been safe and I was exhausted, why I didn't know, but that was it. And the rest was black and fuzzy, like a worn out VHS tape.
This is crazy. What's happening? I don't even...oh no. No, no, no, no, no..what's my-what's my name?!
Panic began to bubble over my mind. I had no idea what had happened the before, who had done it, why they'd done and worst of all I didn't even know who I was!
Crap! Crap, crap-a giant mound of steaming crap!
While I was rocking back and forth, heaving for more air I failed to notice the ominous shadow englufing my shaking frame.
And without warning, everything was black once again.
Ok, so I know it's short, but I didn't want my mind to run wild right away.
If you don't mind, review? Thanks very much :)
