Chapter 1
Gritty sand whips in my face as I find myself struggling to get to my knees, the pain is great but the heat is worse,. My mouth is dry,i can't even barely utter a yell, all that comes out is a hoarse whisper. Nobody knows i'm out here but my unit, and I guess that could be a good thing because I don't want the terminators to find me, but if I stay out here in the desert much longer I don't think i'm going to make it without their help. Soon enough the sand storm stops and I find myself farther away then from where I started, the sand storm must've disoriented me along with my pain because on top of not knowing where I am,i have no clue what time it is. I can't move at all, even crawling is becoming a huge effort, I struggle a few times and somehow manage to crawl into a crevice between cliffs that are near where I am. It gives me just a enough shade,so I can relax,but that doesn't happen. I sit there waiting for the end to happen, hoping that this hell will end,either in death or being rescued
Soon enough my pant's are wet and I attempt to check my leg for fracture,but as soon as I do a pulse of pain runs through the back of my thigh. Quietness fills the air except for my own groaning, until I hear vehicle rapidly approaching and then preceding to a stop. Someone gets out of the vehicle and slams the door shut, then starts to walk around looking for me. They don't see me at first,as i'm hidden in the shadows but I catch their attention as the first figure looks to her left and sees me. "I found him"she says, "ok, we need to get the supplies and the strecher, he'll be in a ton of pain if I heard the accident report right"figure number 2 says. Figure number 1 approaches me first, "it's alright son,i'm not going to hurt you,do you mind telling me your name"she says to me shining a light in my eyes as I try to flinch away, "Kyle"i barely groan out, "ok where does it hurt"she asks as the other figure slips in beside her, "honestly everywhere"i say. "Ok we're going to move you alright,then we're going to get the rest of your vitals", "ok"i say. They gently lie me on my back and then they progress to move me, "easy,1 2 3,gotcha"she says as they finally put me on the makeshift strecher. The lady on one side and the man on the other,they carry me out and put me in the back of the vehicle.
Once in the back,the lady,who I later find out is Clare, tries to take my vitals and by the looks of it it's not good because she grabs my wrist and gives me something,pain medicine I guess,becasue the next thing I know I fall into a sleep induce uncouciousness with the lady holding my hand as we make progress down the road.
