There's a Little Bit of Hope in All of US
Chap. 1
The darkness seemed to go on forever. Could this be real?? Was Zack really gone? Dead?? He couldn't be. He died to save me. He killed himself so that I could live...but why?
Max opened her eyes and tried to focus on something..anything. Her eyes couldn't seem to find anything worth looking at. A soft noise made Max shift her head to the right. "Is someone there?"
The drugs they had her doped up on were making her head feel so heavy. Max couldn't keep her head from falling back onto the pillow. Her eyes fluttered shut.
Slowly a dark figure crept to the side of Max's bed. Was she dreaming? Or was someone really there standing over her?
"Who are you?" Max tried to make her voice sound commanding but she knew not even the rats on the floor would scatter at the slight whimper that was her voice.
"You're not alone." The voice came as a soft whisper. Max tried to decide if it belonged to a man or a woman, but her head was throbbing and the room was spinning slowly.
"You will never be alone. Not as long as there is hope. Hope will not give up on you, that is my promise to you, Max." The figure seemed to reach out to her but Max felt the room spinning more violently and in a flash, the stranger was gone and Max was out.
