I realized my first chapter was short so is thus one is but hopefully more insightful than the last one was.

May 10th Thursday

I finally arrived in town last night after 12 A.M which I guess was good because by then my parents already got a room for themselves and their 'star child'. When I arrived there the Motel clerk asked what I was doing here again. At first I thought this was the worst thing that could happen to me since are last time that I we met here we weren't that friendly towards each other. But when he looked at the list to see if there were any rooms left he noticed that my last name already had a room. I knew that my parents got that room for the' star child' but I took it anyways it's not like he need it right now. I remembered that when I first got out of the FAYZ I was surprised to see myself outside of it instead of inside it. The giant metal spike that should be in my head was nowhere in sight. It toke a week a week for my parents to come get but by then I learned so much more about the FAYZ then when inside one. It turns out that the first one that went up was in a small town named Perdido Beach in California. It use to be that you could watch an 'episode' of the 'Life in the FAYZ' every day but since the shutdown of the power plant they just been reruns. It turns out that you can't get images in but they could get out them out. The images were mute so no one could tell what they meant unless you could read lips. You could get people to voice over what the kids said but people didn't really want to waste to time doing that. It is disgusting that people actually watch that and enjoys what happens. When Caine took the power away from the town and everywhere else it killed all of the cameras in the FAYZ ending the shows. At the same time it troubled the parents so they couldn't know about their children life was like and if they got food and shelter. I kind of weird though because where I was we also had a power plant in fact all of the FAYZ had a power plant last time I checked. That's weird… oh well proabally nothing.

I looked at the clock on my computer and realized it was all ready two in the morning. I had stayed up searching the FAYZ and trying to see a way in without breaking the dome. That incident in France had shown me that you can't try to break the FAYZ you can only pass through it. The children's faces were hard to look at with their wide diluted eyes and their grin that reached from ear to ear. They had rotten teeth and green lips and they looked as though they had slowly been rotting away. Since then they only found two ways through the FAYZ one was back at the first FAYZ where a girl entered the parent's dreams. The second was only if everyone had died or grew up and that only happened so far in China and the Russian Federation. I should just get to sleep before I stay up to five again. And then the moment I went down on the bed I blacked out.

What happened to the main character and why have I not yet mentioned her name (I actually haven't thought of yet) all this and more shall be answered in the next chapter.

I know it's short sorry but I couldn't think of much.
