AUTHOR'S NOTE:
Sorry for the long wait for this chapter, life has been getting the way but here is the long awaited chapter 3. Also this chapter is rather short - sorry about that as well.

Chapter 3:

(Sophie's POV)
Staring out across the black plain, the easiest way to describe it was like hell without the flames. Everywhere my eyes looked I saw broken down buildings that hadn't been eroded by time and even though it was a black place, a dark light still flooded what used to be the brightest place in the entire country. Pulling out my map I looked around and could see the run down path that was covered with debris. Walking along the path I looked around and got the feeling that I was being watched but wherever I turned all I saw was darkness and destruction. Walking along I soon came to a small little shack that looked ready to fall over. Gently pushing against the door I saw a small wooden bench right in the middle and, as gently as I could, I placed a piece of bread from my bag on it and walked out. "Please let this work mum," sitting down I sat and waited, hoping the information that mum had given me was corrected. Slowly the minutes lengthened and I felt my eye-lids closing when a strong hand grabbed my shoulder and before I could do anything something was pressed to my face and I couldn't breathe. Soon black dots were appearing before me but just as I was about to pass out the thing was removed and I collapsed onto the ground, unable to stand.

"Let's hope for your sake that this isn't a trap," trying to look up I wanted badly to tell the person that this wasn't a trap but all my energy was gone and darkness was pulling against the corner of my mind.

"Jellal, bring her, we can't stay here much longer," with strong arms picking me up and throwing me over a shoulder the darkness blacked out all thought and I slipped away from the world of reality.
