She slowly opened her eyes to find herself looking up at a ceiling. She sat up and realized she was also lying in a bed in a completely white room. A cold feeling went up her spine.
"I'm glad you finally woke up." A tall, gray haired woman walked through the doorway. She had on a long green dress that didn't seem to sit right and was a little too long for her. "I was beginning to think you were never going to wake up. Demetrius should be glad to hear this."
"Who are you? And here's an even better question: Where am I?" Fox began to pull the blanket up to her chin out for protection.
"Don't be scared. You are safe here. Louise won't be able to find you here." The woman smiled sweetly.
Fox thought a moment before she gasped. "Oh my goodness. Louise? Isn't that the Warden? Well, that clears things up. Wait till- oh no. Where's…that boy that was with me?"
"Oh, he's alright. He hasn't woken up yet though. I can take you to see him if you want."
"Yeah, I want to see him." Fox nodded slowly.
She climbed out of the bed. The floor was cold and Fox looked down to see that her shoes were missing. The woman was already walking out of the door by the time Fox looked up and she ran out of the room to catch up.
Outside, was a beautiful white hallway that was open on one side. Pink trees dotted the green hillside and the sky was almost too blue. Fox couldn't help but stare the scene in front of her as she walked beside the woman. Suddenly, they stopped in front of a closed door. Fox took it that that was the room was Twitch was in and she pushed the door open quickly.
There he was, still asleep, or knocked out. She walked over and he seemed like he was very peaceful lying there. Slowly, she shook his shoulder and whispered, "Twitch, wake up."
His eyes shot open and he sat straight up. "What? What's going on?"
"It's okay. It's just me, Charity." She smiled. "Are you alright?"
Rubbing his head, he nodded, "Yeah, I think so. But I've got a really bad headache." He looked around and noticed the odd woman standing in the doorway. "Who is she?"
"I'm…not exactly sure." They both looked over at her and she grinned. "But she's a little creepy."
"Yeah." Twitch stared at her for a while.
"Twitch, I have no idea where we are but I can tell you one thing. We're not in Kansas anymore, that's for sure." Fox glanced back at the door where she could catch a glimpse of the green world outside. "It's green out there. I mean, with actual grass."
He look past the woman and his eyes got wider, "You're right. Is that grass?"
"Uh huh, and there's tree out there. It's really different."
Suddenly, the woman stepped forward. "Listen, I don't want to disturb you at all, but I think you should go meet Demetrius. He's been looking forward to meeting the two of you."
Twitch swung his feet over the edge of the bed, "We'll go with you if you tell us who you are."
"My name's Opal." She grinned wider. "I'm sorry I should have told you sooner. But, it's very important that you go see Demetrius and the Elders."
Fox and Twitch exchanged glances. They knew it wasn't a good sign if they had to meet with others.
