Beg Note: Okay, this chapter flowed to me quite easy, I hope that doesn't mean it has lost its quality. This is going to be in first person. Something a bit different from the rest of the story but I liked it, I hope you guys will too. Good Luck for you exams, Amy, I have one more exam left, but it's not until the end of the month. Lets hope everything turns out fine ;)

The girl called out desperately. I was confused, who was calling me? Why were they calling me?

They had disturbed me, interrupted the quiet that I had been in for a long time. The silence I was used to.

My ears hurt, they rung with the sound of her voice, I could not make out what she was saying, I was not use to using my ears. I had not heard anything in ages.

Something was strange; I recognised that voice, like I had heard it long ago in a different place, a place that was not here. In a place where sound existed, but it did not exist here. The owner of the voice had to be very extraordinary to penetrate the vacuum, to put sound into it. Sound travelled in waves, I had learnt this, in a place where people could communicate with words. That place had not been a vacuum, so the sound waves created by voices could vibrate on the air. There was no air here, no particles and therefore no sound. But this person had defied the laws of physics and reached me with their voice.

I felt blind, the feeling had come on suddenly, although I had not seen anything for ages. My eyes had remained open in all the time that I had been here, but as there was no light there was nothing to see except darkness, black, the absence of light.

Now, I could see light, but it was so bright it blinded me, it looked white but I knew it wasn't, there was something there but I could not see it through all the light.

The cries grew fainter and less painful, and that is when I could make out the words. They were two, being repeated and repeated, in the voice I knew but could not remember. "Me" was one of the words, it was a cry, it was in a high pitch, but it didn't make any sense to me at all.

The light grew fainter as my eyes adjusted, I could make out the outline of a person, and it was her. The girl calling to me. What did she want, how had she gotten here?

For the first time, I asked myself, 'How had I gotten here?' that thought had not come into my head before and what was more, 'How had I survived here' in a place without air. Had she come to save me? But I had not asked for help, but maybe I had not known to.

It happened suddenly, I comprehended the second word she was uttering, and who she was. "Help," she was saying, she was asking me for help, not coming to my rescue. Josie was somewhere and she needed help.

"Help me," Josie said for the last time as she faded into the darkness, the ginger of her hair still lingered in my mind when all was black.

I remembered that something had happened to her and she had lost consciousness, I remembered I was too weak to save her and had blacked out and appeared here. How long had I been here, why had my memories of the past disintegrated?

It didn't matter, all that mattered was I had to go back. I had to save Josie!

If only in which direction I knew where to move, or how to move.

I was being called again, the voice was deeper this time and was not accompanied by light, the voice sounded closer than Josie's had.

"Vaughn," Vaughn? What was he saying? My name, the person was calling me. They were right next to me I could feel them. I had to move towards them, they were so close. So very close but so far away at the same time.

Their voice died down and in a desperate panic I pulled myself in the direct they had been in. It hurt, I had not moved in a long time and my body was not used to it.

No one was about, Josie was not where she had collapsed, and there was no one else to be seen. Where had she gone, she wouldn't have woken up and left without me, I wondered.

I felt sick, my head was pounding and my inside where twisting, as I tried to stand my head began to spin, when I had finally got to my feet I could barely see through all my dizziness.

I stood there as the fuzz in my head settled, I felt bewildered. I had to get away from this place, find Josie. Find the others.

My legs were weak standing was tiring, but I put a foot forward and then another. I had left the support of the tree behind, although I had wobbled I had not fallen and I took another step forward.

With every step I took I could feel myself weakening, was this all in vain?

End Note: How was that for a chapter, I know that nothing really happened but it had to be written, its part of the story after all. Okay my next update will be Tuesday, so see you then and that's when I start winter training as well.
