AN: Okay so yeah this is my first story published on here. So I'm kinda nervous O.O''. It'd be great if people Reviewed afterwards even if you read it and there's nothing wrong with it.

I will add more to the story and believe me there will be more, but before I added anymore I wanted to know what people thought so far. Now I know it seems a wee bit like The Host. It is a fanfiction about it, I DO NOT OWN THE HOST (sorry for caps but I had bluntly put that). But I assure you it will have a similar but different outcome, and if anyone is wondering, yes characters from The Host book as Cannon characters will later be added.

Okay so this is going to of course probably be a romantic/comedy type of story. So yes.

Rated: M - for saftey keeping, right now it's a K+ but I'm not sure what I'll add later on.

One last added note. I ask if anything is wrong, or if I am breaking any rules, mispelling, grammar errors or what not please let me know. Like I said I'm a wee bit nervous first story and all. ^-^''

Trapped and Freed

Chapter 1

Mandie's POV

'Where am I?' I questioned in my thoughts. Everything was black. Wait...it was starting to get grey...wait there was a light. Thoughts came flooding to my mind. 'Eyes,' I thought. 'You see through them.' I had to open them, but how? I thought a moment as the more simple thoughts came to mind. 'Ahh...' It now came naturally. I didn't have to think. My eyes suddenly then opened, only to be blinded by the bright light above me.

"Gwah!" I shouted. My hands suddenly covered my eyes. A bright light burned the inside of my eyelids.

"She's up." stated a voice in a hurry. A deep voice. A man's.

I heard feet rush towards me and I felt hands on my arms. Helping me sit up. I slowly ran my hands down my face as I got a glimpse of not just one person, but three. I blinked continuously. It felt weird, foreign.

As if the man read my mind he asked, "How are you feeling?" He held what I instantly recognized from my thoughts as a clipboard, and pen.

"Uhhm" I squeaked. "Weird..." I mumbled as I let my eyes wander the room. Everything was bright around me. This was my first planet, I've ever visited.

The man wrote down a few things on his clipboard. "Okay move your feet, then legs, then arms, last fingers" he stated.

I did as ordered. I started at the man. A healer obviously, I was intelligent of my own species of course. Then the lady. I tilted my head. "Who are you?" I asked bluntly.

"I am what we call a Seeker. I'll be assigned to you. To make sure no one is roaming in your head." she explained.

I took a moment to roam my silent mind. "I think you're insane...no one is there." I muttered.

The seeker looked at me taken aback. "What?" she asked.

I looked at the healer, he was taking notes. The other person seemed to have disappeared. I took another moment to roam my thoughts, just encase.

"Nope." I simply stated. "Do I get to leave now?" I asked curiously. I wanted to get on with this life.

"One moment" the seeker said, walking off. I watched her retrieve a folder and she walked back to me. "Okay we can go" she told me. She scanned the folder as she began walking.

I just simply followed.

"This is your first planet." she stated. "For now you have no name. You may choose one or go by your hosts name" she explained looking at me.

"Hm..Host's name.." I mumbled, my words trailing off as I thought. I suddenly got the information I needed. "Host's name Andria. Andi for short" I repeated as if a robot.

"Would you like that name?" the Seeker asked.

"No." I replied bluntly. She then handed me a list, practically shoving it at me.

"Choose one of those," she said in a bored voice. As if I were a bother.

I quietly read the list as best as possible. For some reason it was a little hard to think, and access more of the memories, I didn't know if that was normal, and suppose to happen. I shook my head and tried to think harder. "I want..." I mumbled as I scanned the list again. My eyes fell upon a name I figured I liked. "Ma-Man-Mandie!" I practically shouted.

The Seeker raised an eyebrow, as if it were strange I had a problem pronouncing the name. She then quickly swiped the piece of paper from me and wrote something down in the file. "Okay well then" she stated as she took a deep sigh. "Now since no one lingers in your head, for a few months I will be getting you use to this planet" she explained.

"Okay," I simply replied. I had noticed we finally reached outside. It was brighter outside than it was inside. My eyes roamed around. When they were finished roaming the scenery, they fell upon the seeker. I could see she was about to mention something else but her eyes widened, alarmed. I could tell by her expression she was about to shout something, but what?

I soon found out.

AN: Okay I know my author's note at the top was long, but please bear with me. Like I said nervous. I know this section starts off boring but I assure you it gets better as the story goes on. I wanted to just start explaining things at first. As an experienced reader it kills me how some people don't always explain enough, and as a writer coming out in the open finally posting things out, I may have written to much introductory. Lemme know and I can either add more or die down. I need Reviews though to make that happen.
