Shadows everywhere...
Everywhere.
A bright strand of light
closely behind.
Footsteps behind her.
She ran and ran, like she
had done so long.
She was so tired.
SO tired...
She had to rest, she just
had to.
The shadows disappeared
suddenly, like nothing had happened.
Bright shining light
followed after the darkness.
Or, the sun's rays swallowed
the shadows of the alley.
The flashlight disappeared.
Finally, rest...
She awoke with a splitting headache. Did
I drink too much last night? The
thought came in her head without warning. She didn't know what it meant,
though. She screened the view around herself. She laid before an alley, dark
and emanating a bad smell. Wh...where am I? She asked herself, still not knowing how she knew those words
that were bubbling up in her mind. Surprisingly enough, nobody answered. How
could they? Nobody was there. The girl groaned as she rubbed her forehead and
stood up. She looked around herself again. Besides the dark alley there was
nothing there. Absolutely nothing. It was just a giant yard with no trees or
anything else. The girl sighed as she looked at her body. She was skinny, and
was wearing a short, almost too short, orange dress, with bare arms. Her long
purple-red hair fell over her knees, giving her body a slight tickle.
If I could only remember
where I am or atleast who I am... She thought. She shivered again as soft small
balls of white stuff fell on her. Not just one, but a thousand! They fell right
out of the sky. The girl tried to catch one with her hand, but they disappeared
as soon as she opened it to look at the cold stuff.
Her legs suddenly trembled,
and she fell on the ground, which was now covered in the balls of whiteness.
She hugged her knees, a desperate attempt to keep herself warm. Her vision
quickly began to blur, but she stayed awake long enough to see a shadow coming
towards her. Without reason to the girl herself, she felt scared. No, horrified
was more like it. She tried to get away, but her feet seemed to be made out of
rubber. Then her eyes closed.
