A/N:
Hey guys :)
This is my first fanfiction ever.
Please let me know what you think about it!
And you maybe have already recognized that english is not my mother language.
I'll try me best! :)
Chapter 1
Bella's POV
"Hello?", I screamed. No response. "Can anybody hear me?", again, no answer.
I don't know how long I have already stumbled through the woods.
I couldn't breathe anymore. Every part of my body hurt. I was going to get a panic attack. The darkness around me made it even worse. I pant for air.
No! – I said to myself. You cannot panic right now. Move on!
I tried to get up from the earth, but it hurt too much. Every part of my body ached; I sighed.
It was getting colder. I started freezing. The wet earth all over my body made it even worse.
The arrow in my thigh, the cut in my arm and the broken shoulder made it impossible for me to run one more meter.
You must pull the arrow out and run! But what if I will bleed to death? You are already dead.
The conflict in my head caused a headache. My head pulsed.
Why did you have to be so curious? Why didn't you just stop when it got dangerous?
But these thoughts won't help myself to get out of the woods. I had to face the ugly and painful truth.
So, I took a deep breath, grabbed the metallic arrow and pulled it. I groaned.
A scream escaped my mouth. It hurt so much!
For a moment, I thought I would black out. The pain was so intense.
My heartbeat was even faster than before. My chest raised and lowered jerkingly. I tried to calm down. I had to clear my mind.
"First of all, the most important facts!", I remembered the phrase from my professor at the college. He was right. And I always kept that sentence in my mind when I started a story for the Magazine.
But now I am not in my office in New York. And that won't change so fast.
I had to focus.
Okay. I am bleeding extremely. I don't know where to go (apart from that I can't even go).
I could barely see anything. Summed up: I am lost.
But I couldn't accept that! I didn't want to die right now. This couldn't be the end of my short, ordinary life. Or? So many things had happened and changed in the last few months. Especially, no not especially, my whole life had changed. Completely.
I thought about so many things at once.
Will I ever see him again? Is he looking for me?
Will they find me first? If so, what will they do to me?
Should I just wait until someone finds me?
Will I survive?
At that moment I only had one fitting answer to my last question. NO.
I leaned my aching head against the tree behind me and cried. Tears ran down my face. I felt desperate. I couldn't stop crying. Everything was a mess. I panicked and started sobbing. I felt lonely and helpless.
I had no idea how long I sat under that tree. After some time has passed, I stopped crying, because I was distracted by my heartbeat. It beat extremely fast.
Am I about to die?
And then I remembered; the arrow.
I pulled it out but didn't do anything to stop the bleeding! I might have lost a lot of blood.
So, what now Swan?, I asked myself.
I knew I had to stop the bleeding but it would be extremely painful. Not just because of the deep wound the arrow left behind, but also because of my broken shoulder.
I wasn't able to move my arm without feeling a stabbing pain in my shoulder.
But I would have no choice, if I didn't want to bleed to death. Which, I expected, would be more painful than moving my broken shoulder.
So, I tried to grab the shirt with my other arm. Got it. Moved the shirt towards my mouth, bit in it and then split it apart.
My hands were shaking when I tried to put the wet piece of my shirt around my thigh. Every part of my body ached.
I took a deep breath and knotted the shirt together. The pain was intense! I groaned.
My heart beat fast and I was sweating, although I felt cold at the same time.
I was tired and had no idea how I should survive this.
But I had no choice.
So, while I was screaming out loud, I pulled myself against the tree behind me to get up from the earth.
I had no idea how, but after a few attempts I finally stood there. I held on the tree.
You can do this! Go on!, the voice in my head told me.
Okay.
I will survive!, I told myself. It can't be so far. The wood can't be endlessly.
What was that? I thought I saw something.
No. You are hallucinating.
But there it was again, wasn't it?
A cone of light!
He found me! Or was it them?
I panicked. The light was coming closer and closer. What should I do?
RUN!, the voice in my head again.
But I couldn't move. I was in a state of trance.
The light was already very close. I wanted to scream, but no words came out of my mouth.
And then, it happened. I suddenly felt nothing. Everything around me was even darker than before.
Am I in heaven?
The pain was gone.
