I couldn't see anything except the trees that whipped by me as a ran. I ran into the woods as fast as I could go. I couldn't let Lily go. I needed to find her. I fell over a root in the ground and felt a terrible pain shoot through my leg. I didn't care though. I got back up and limped. I had to find her. I didn't care that my leg was probably broken. I would find her even if it was the last thing I did.
I didn't get very far, though. The pain got too intense and I fell to the ground. I looked up to the sky hidden behind a sea of branches. Then everything went black.

I opened my eyes and imediatley shut them again. I blinked a couple times to adjust to the light and looked around. I saw my dad sitting in a chair to my left, sleeping. Looks like I'm in a hospital. I heard my dad move and looked over at him. He opened his eyes and jumped out of his chair and came to me.
"Miles, you're awake. I've been so worried." He hugged me and I could tell he was about to cry. I hugged him back.
"It's okay, dad. What happened?"
"I got a call from the school saying you were missing from school during the code red they had and you didn't come home. I called the police after a couple hours to search for you and later that night they found you in the park. What were you thinking, Miles? I was scared to death. I thought I lost you.."
"Dad, something took Lily. I had to find her. She's gone, dad.. She's gone.." I could feel hot tears escape my eyes.
"I'm sorry.. They haven't found her yet." His eyes were full of sadness. But he didn't know. Didn't know the truth. Didn't know just how much that hurt. Didn't know that my heart was breaking.

Sorry it's so short. I'm having a bit of writers block. Please review and if you have any suggestions to help me with my writers block, I'll listen. You never know, I might use it if I like it.
