The Awakened part 1.

The Awakened part 1.

A Story by Marquise
"

just read.....

"

I awaken and find myself laying dormant in an isolated room.
Curled in a corner wearing everything except my sneakers which are not in site.
There is one light coming from the ceiling.
Not just any lighting, but a Victorian chandelier of all things.
The reality of the matter at hand became much stranger

after I noticed there were no doors or windows.
Which makes me wonder how exactly I got in here in the first place.

Before I could gather another thought the sounds of a woman's whimper
softly brushed across the egg white colored walls of the room.
My reaction should be fear overtaking me. My palms should be sweaty,
and yells of help should exit my lungs.
But I remained calm because it felt as if I've been here before.
Not particularly in this room or in this situation...
just...here....

I gathered myself and began to pace the room slowly, looking in each
corner and crevasse as I walked pass.
As I paced I thought of strategies of escape.
Nothing seemed like it would work in my mind.

After some time passed, I found myself thinking more about my loved ones.
I turned to face forward again after pacing the room countless times
Sitting directly in the center of the room laid a cherry red envelope.
I was hesitant to touch it, but i grabbed it and read the front which said:
"Do not open until you fully understand why you are here."

to be continued...

I really would like to know what happens next! Why?! Why are you there?! Continue it! It grabbed my attention at the first line. Very well done and I'd love to read on.

Wonderful attention grabber. You got me, so I'll be waiting to find out how you got there, your plan of escape, and most importantly, when you realize why you're there. Nice...
