Chapter - 2
***********************************************
She walked slowly up the deserted street holding her arm close to her chest. She had been walking around for almost 2 hours now going form street to street trying to find some sort of sign of life but so far she had found nothing. She was scared. More scared than she was when Magneto kidnapped her and almost killed her. At least then she knew that somebody was going to come and rescue her. She looked around the empty street once more; a single tear ran down her cheek. She had never felt so... alone.
Actually she had found something, something she didn't want to find and didn't want so see any more of - destruction. There was so much destruction. Cars had bullet holes in the sides like in police movies. Dried blood stained the pavement. Shop windows smashed contents looted. Homes had been set fire to, memories gone forever in a puff of smoke. She bent down to pick up a forgotten newspaper, she groaned in pain for the effort. Her eyes widened as she saw the date on the front.
15th May 2017
*oh god* she thought to herself as it dawned on her what had happened *I've travelled through time, 14 years* she looked around at her surroundings *this damage is old...very old I've travelled more than 14 years. Whatever happened hear happened quickly* She quickly scanned than rest of the front page *they didn't even have time to write about it in the paper*.
She dropped the paper to the ground and continued to walk.
She tried to remember what had happened. What had led her to become stuck here? Her memory was still hazy from were she had hit it when she....landed?
She had been in one of the mansions gardens with Bobby, laughing, joking; playing with each others hands. They had been discussing the book they had been studying in school although they weren't really caring about the topic; they were just enjoying each others company. She remembered that much.
They had been talking as usual and then suddenly there had been a huge flash of light. An awe inspiring flash of the brightest golden light. The light seemed to be alive and powerful; yet welcoming. They had both lifted there arms to there faces to protect there eyes.
She remembered yelling and screaming and someone shouting her name. But the light drew her in. Then she had felt a mighty pressure on her chest almost as if all the air from her lungs had been sucked out. Then darkness and nothing. Then she had woken up in the house.
*oh Bobby.* she thought *I hope he's ok?!*
She was so caught up in her own thoughts that she wasn't paying attention to were she was going so it was no surprise when she fell over. She screamed in pain as she landed on her broken arm. She rolled off her arm and sat up to look at what had tripped her.
It was a corpse. A very old rotting corpse. She screamed again, bile rising. She managed to get to her feet and she started to run. She ran as fast as she could ignore the pain that was wracking her fragile body. Eventually she stopped. Leaning against a wall.
The hairs on her arms began to rise and she got the feeling that somebody was watching her. Someone grabbed her from behind. A cold hand covered her mouth. She tried to struggle but the person was a lot stronger than she was. She tried to scream for help but they were muffled by the hand. She saw the needle in his hand then everything went dark.
