think think think, what do I do.? do I try to reach Jenny by some means do I
wither away? no, no I have to do something but what? I'm in a freaking box!
wait is that... yes! its light its merely a crack but... its LIGHT. now being able to
see I asses my situation. ok, I'm on my back I have soiled shorts as well as a
small pile in the corner that is starting to stink...ok what else the box I'm in
has a wall with bars. and if theres light there must be a door in witch the light
is coming through. with the silence its safe to assume Jenny is sleeping. I look
at my hands. long fingers, long nails and bruised knuckles. I shrug. there's
nothing I can do there. now to the rest of the body. I look down myself the
best I can. several bruises and a few needle holes but besides that,I'm fine.
the light begins to spread and I lean forward eager to get a glimpse of
whoever or whatever is opening the door. a small head pops in, a head who's
eyes reflect my own. l stare into its eyes as it stares into mine.
"who are you"the figure inquirers.
eager to learn I reply "my names john what's yours"
the figure who I now belive to be a boy replies " my names Luke"
"well Luke could you get me out of here" I ask getting faintly annoyed.
"I sure can" Luke answers as he opens my cage.
as I get out of the cage,Luke who has now left the cover of the door to reveal
to be about as tall as I am and to be full of nervous energy
"we have to get Jenny" I say despite his rush to leave
At the mention of my sister Luke calms slightly and looks even more curious if
possible.I look at jenny's box. of course, shes sleeping. I look to Luke for
assistance.
"How do you open it" I demand getting impatient with him just standing there.
"right" he says as he demonstrates how to open my sisters box.
quickly, I grab Jenny and rush out of the room only to see three other kids.
I look around,shifting Jenny so I can carry her by her waist with
her arms around my neck. one is a girl with cat eyes and a lean body. another
girl has... wings? and finnaly there's a boy who has wide shoulders and a
massive ammount of hair on his head.
Luke introduces us "this is crystal" as he points at the girl with cat eyes
"this" he announces with a deeper voice "is bill"as he points to the kid with
wide shoulders.
and with finality he says "and shes hummer" as he points to the girl with
wings.
not long after he finishes hummers name an alarm . we
all bolt down the hallway. clearly ahead of everyone, I laugh just at the
thought of running free.
