This is a work of fanfiction using characters from Dead Poets Society, which belongs to Tom Schulman. I do not claim any ownership over them, but I do over the original characters. I kindly ask you to respect this :)

I do not claim any ownership over the beautiful girl in the cover, either.

The story I tell here is my own invention, and it is not purported or believed to be part of Tom Schulman's story canon.

PROLOGUE

Shit.

Shit, shit, shit.

How the hell had that happened? She was not supposed to be there. Where had her house gone? She was pretty sure she had a fucking couch under her ass just moments before. And now?

She slowly took a look around. It was dark and cold. The ground under her palms was uneven and hard, covered in rocks and dried leaves. The air around was cool, giving her the impression that she was inhaling straight into a fridge. She was surrounded by tall and gaunt trees, quite creepy in their skeletal structures. An owl could be heard in the distance, along with the flowing of some kind of liquid. She lifted from her prone position, brushing her clothes off and observing the little clouds forming out of her mouth.

Shit.

She knew where she was. And, in all honesty, could she actually have time to freak out and let a useless panic course through her veins, when that had a very good chance to be just a vivid dream?

Okay. The stream was right there, she said to herself while looking to her left. So the cave must have been farther ahead, towards the crashing waterfall sound. Better be safe and indoors, and maybe freeze to death, rather than be the happy meal of some less than magnanimous beast. And better sleep for a couple of hours, too, before deciding where to go, how to do, and whether she was still relentlessly sleeping on her sofa or not.


A/N: Hello everybody ^^ I hope you liked (or, at least, felt intrigued by) the beginning of this gibberish I happened to write. Feel free to correct any mistake since I'm not a native speaker, and let me know what you think if you want ^^
