Prologue
"Jess..."
Shrieks, glass, the shock of the cold piercing my skin...
"Jess..."
I was being dragged, away, screaming for my life-crying out with every last force of my voice to let Mike know where I was. I desperately grabbed anything within my reach on the mountain terrain to hold on to. Anything to get away...
"Jess...Jessica!"
"She's got a few broken ribs. Can you tell me what happened? Get her out of that jacket, it's covered in blood...nine three-three can you read me? I have a 10-43-surname foxtrot, india, echo, lima, delta, sierra. First name of Jessica-common spelling...
And some how...through all that pain, the terror, the bitter cold piercing my skin and making me bleed. I had no idea what or who was dragging me through the mountain. Only when Mike scared that thing off was I barely conscious on some platform and he was reaching out to me...my Mike-my boyfriend.
"Yes, my name is Matthew, me and her we escaped..the Wendigo..."
Then I fell.
"Fire..."
"Survivors.."
All I could think was that the whole group would be looking for me, searching. Probably the Mounties would be already on scene trying to find me deep within the mines that I was enclosed in. I saw light shining above me when I awoke...and that horrible screech.
"Miss, you need to tell me what exactly happened to you..."
I...
"MISS!" The Mountie shook me awake from my deep thoughts. I felt pain shoot up my ribs as he did and winced. He looked apologetic but had a stern glint in his eye as he looked up and down at my body.
"I have seen some people after falling like you did but you look like you saw a whole world war. What happened?"
"My...name...is Jess," I began feeling the prick of a needle insert into me. Sleep lulled me closer and I knew I had to let myself rest. I saw Mike scrambling to see me but being held by other Mounties. My eyes fluttered shut and I drifted away. I wanted to finish my sentence with that guy with:
And I have no fucking clue what is going on.
