How could I tell her?
"Amy, I have lost Mom and Dad, and even Maria. I couldn't… I can't, lose you as well."
"I don't see you pushing Dan or Sandra into a crack in the wall"
"Dan is my equal. He is not my responsibility being the same age as me. Sandra is my adoptive sister and as much as I love her, it's not nearly as much as I love you. You Amy are my younger sister. I am supposed to take care of you. If you had gotten hurt…" My voice cracked and trailed off. I didn't want to think about it.
She hugged me and we both cried.
"It's okay. We're both safe now" I whispered stroking her hair."

Questions swirled in my head. Alex knowing what I was going to ask said "You're just clueless and wondering how we got here." I nodded.
Footsteps echoed down the hallway. Sandra and Dan burst through the entrance to the room, if that's what you could call it. They were fallowed by another man, tall and lanky.
"Amy!" cried Sandra out of breath and ran up to give me a hug.
"Oops, wait." She said backing off, "Are you okay? How's you're shoulder?" she asked panicky.
"I'm fine." I said quickly.
"We heard screaming," said Dan.
"You would scream too if you woke up and didn't know where you were…which I, still don't." I replied.
Sandra then launched herself into the position of story teller. I listened intently as she told me what happen after I had lost consciousness. After a small fight where no one was injured, they discovered that their adversaries were humans. Then they took us in their van to their underground secret hideout where we were now. I was amazed to hear that about forty people lived in the caves and that they had discovered other groups as well. That meant that there were more than a hundred humans or so in the area. And that's just this area and the ones we know about!
As I listened the man who had came in with Sandra and Dan, the doctor, or Doc as the others called him, examined my upper arm, shoulder and head. Everything felt fine.
Dan then talked about how Doc fixed me up with the alien medicine that worked really fast and fixed my broken bone in my upper arm.
"What time is it?" I asked.
"Um, two o'clock in the afternoon," said Dan.
"What? You let me sleep for hours and hours."
"You needed it" said Alex simply.
"Yes, you did" said Doc. I sighed and gave up.
"Hungry?" asked Sandra.
"Starving" I replied.
Sandra led the way to the door. "Um, Dan, I think I we need our flashlight on again" Dan switched on the light. I turned back. Alex was stretched out a cot.
"You coming?" I asked.
"No, I'm going to sleep."
"Ok. Guys, let's go"
A/N: Did you guys like this chapter? So I still need to see Twilight. It's bugging me. It came out yesterday in Spanish. I'll probably see it in Spanish before I see in English. According to the schedule it still won't come till after the 20th. Here are the movies showing right now: Ghost town, Eagle Eye, Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist, Lakeview Terrace, Beverly Hills Chihuahua, Quarantine, Bolt, Night in Rodanthe, Australia, Madagascar 2, Flash of Genius, Four Christmases, Body of Lies, Quantum of Solace, W., Max Payne, The Secret Life of Bees, and My best Friends Girl. But no TWILIGHT! But I here I only have to pay $3 a ticket and $3 for a jumbo popcorn and a slushy. It's only has one auditorium and it plays the national anthem before each showing, but it's not bad. So I guess I shouldn't be complaining. QUESTIONS, COMMENTS or CONCERNS? REVIEW! Thank you
