Okay! Second chapter! Me liking this~


'My head hurts.' I thought as I came to.

My body felt like lead, and my eyes wouldn't open. 'Move.' I told myself. 'Move!' My eyes cracked open slightly, only to recoil as blinding light hit them.

Gathering up my courage; I opened one eye and looked around. Both eyes snapped open as I shot up straight, instantly regretting it, as my head pounded. Rubbing my temple, I swallowed, my throat now had a big, dry, lump in it. I was...in a forest... "Wha-? This isn't my bedroom. Where am I?!"

Standing up, I turned in circles, like a lost child, and I realized that was exactly what I was. Swallowing again, I shouted out, "Hello?! Anybody out there?! Hello!" Only the birds answered my plea for help with their singing. My shoulders slumped.

Taking another look around, I took in the full beauty of the forest. It was something out of a fairy tale.

I had gone camping many times with my father, but never had I seen anything like this. Although, for some reason, it all looked...strangely familiar...like something out of a dream...

'A dream!' That was it! I was dreaming!

Thinking back; I remembered what happened. When I left my bathroom, I noticed my Wii was on, and instead of turning it off, I had decided to play it, but it wasn't working. So I tried both the reset and power buttons, but both had no effect, so I tried unplugging it, and then...nothing.

'It must have been an electric shock that rendered me unconscious.' I decided. 'After all, what else could it be? All I have to do is wake up, and I'll be back in my room, on the floor. Yes, that's it.'

Shutting my eyes tight, I waited. When I felt like it was long enough, I opened them again.

No bedroom.

Just trees.

"Dammit!" I said as I stamped my foot. 'Wait...if this is a dream, then I shouldn't be able to feel anything, right?'

Getting an idea; I held up my arm and pinched it. HARD. "Ouch!" I yelped. So this wasn't a dream... Staring at the reddening spot on my forearm, I thought, 'What now? I don't know where I am. I don't now how I got here. And I don't know how to get back. I'm not stuck here...right?'

Trying to calm my nerves, I took deep breaths. "Well, I guess there's only one thing to do: Look for someone who might be able to help me." Picking a direction; I started walking. 'This sucks.' I thought miserably. I flinched as I stepped on a rock and wobbled. "Now, if only I had my shoes..." Sighing, I continued walking.

I walked for hours. The hem of my sleep pants were filthy and frayed. Some places on the legs were torn from catching on the plants that surrounded me, cutting my skin. Same with my shirt. My feet had become a bloodied mess, and ached in protest with each step.

My already low energy failed me and I nearly fell over, only just saving myself with a nearby tree. 'Maybe if I take a moment to rest, I could do better and think clearer.' I thought. Sitting down, I leaned against the tree. 'After all, I don't know how much longer I'll have to walk to reach civilization, or if there is any at all. I might starve to death before I even make it. Who knows? There could be some wild animal in these woods that could kill me before I have a chance to do something... A short nap won't change that.'

Just as I was about to close my eyes; the whinny of a horse reached my ears. My eyes snapped open. "A horse?" The sound came again. My mind worked double time as it put two and two together. "Horse could mean...people?" A hopeful grin formed on my face.

Standing up, I began to run as fast as I could toward the sound. As I came closer, the sound of water began to come into range. Soon enough, a clearing came into view. I slowed down to a walk as I drew nearer.

Breathing heavily, I walked to the edge of the trees to see a girl washing the horse I heard. She had short blonde hair, green eyes. She looked vaguely familiar. I took slower steps, realizing I probably looked like a creeper.

When my foot hit the water, it made a splash. She looked over her shoulder at me. Her eyes went wide as she took in my appearance. I again realized I probably looked like crap, and had no wish to look in a mirror. She turned towards me and said, "Are you alright?!" Concern filled her voice.

I thought it was strange; a stranger being worried about a stranger, but that must mean that she had a good heart. Before I could say anything, fatigue took me, and I fell into the shallow water, and everything became black once again.


I honestly have no idea what I'm doing. I'm just letting my hands to their job, while my brain goes "derp." I'm not disappointed or horrified at what I'm seeing, though!
