    I woke up to a loud, metal sliding noise and quickly came to my senses. At first I thought “Where the hell am I?”, but then it all came together. I looked around the room to see 12 people either disoriented or still asleep. The lady in the uniform called out “Jude, lets go”. I got to my feet and that’s when I first noticed I felt like I was about to puke. I felt like my head was about to explode and when I went to rub it, I noticed my arm was absolutely shredded. It looked like I had run…

    like I had woken up from a nightmare. Immediately, I could tell something wasn't right, not at all. I rushed to the mirror on morning sea legs, clutching the mirror's edge so tightly, I was sure it would break. I stared blankly at my blurry reflection. My shirt, it... was green. I persisted to the window and yanked open the curtain. For as far as I could see (which wasn't very far), the view from my bedroom window was... green Suddenly, I was rushing to the bathroom and I spilled everything I…

    As I laid on my ridiculously comfortable bed, a familiar memory flashed vividly through my eyes. The sound of Warren begging for help echoed in my head, bringing me back to consciousness. My eyes fluttered open as I tried to take in the surroundings. The rigid surface beneath me awakened my senses. A sudden pang of pain pierced through my thigh, making me groan in agony. I lifted my head deliberately, high enough to see a pool of blood deriving out of my thigh. I forced my weight on one foot and…

    sleep. I awoke faster than I could open my eyes, to a scream, a crash, and a feeling of falling through the air. As my eyes opened I saw only white then an ever approaching darkness it's as if someone had taken a slo-mo video and was projecting it into my eyes. I could only watch as the earth was approaching closer and closer to me. Knowing what came next I flexed every muscle in my body. The thrashing and unbounded G forces. My neck felt as if it was being pulled right out of my spine; I…

    I woke up. It seemed like I was in a different world. I didn’t recognize anything around me. There was furniture I didn’t recognize; flooring I didn’t recognize; windows I didn’t recognize; even my body was unrecognizable. It seemed like “I” was in my 30s. The last thing I remember was that I went to school, completed my homework (at the last minute), and went to sleep. I got up and looked around. There was a calendar hanging by the doorway. I looked above the days on the calendar and found…

    Fractured “What happened? Where am I? Who am I?” I wake up in a hospital bed. The very first thing I did was… fall down from the bed. “I’m fine. Huh, there isn’t a soul here. Ahh, good thing there’s nobody here to know that but me.” I got up and tried to find something about me in the room. I looked for some time and found something interesting. “Well, well, looks like I found an ID card and a mirror. “I look really good.” Then, I looked in the mirror. “Hmm, it looks like I’m a teen. Huh, Jake…

    groggy sleep. When I felt a sharp pain at my throat I suddenly remembered why I was there. I panicked, trying to get at my throat to protect it as I opened my eyes. I wasn’t able to see well but I could see enough of the man standing over me with bloody hands and a knife. “The anesthesia is wearing off! Inject 12 more cc into her IV.” the man yelled. I fought against my restraints on my wrists. I made one last feeble animal noise before I was unconscious again. ~♥~ I dreamed that I was in a…

    I lied face down on the bed, waiting for the next memory that awaits me. The Giver put his hands on my back. Before I could take breath, I was transported into another memory. I suddenly felt warmer. I was not wearing a shirt, and my pants only touched my knees. I was bare. I wasn’t naked, but it still felt like it was against the rules to be wearing these ridiculous shorts. I look down at my bare feet to see a warm, cool feeling of something on them. The brown, grainy ground stretched for…

    Hello! I am a phone and this is my story. My story starts at a dark factory, I was being made on an assembly line, there were some weird bags of flesh standing over the assembly line, putting some parts on me. After some time, I felt complete. Once I had all of my parts added, I fell into a big pile of other phones. A little while later, One of the flesh bags picked me up and put me into a small box where I fit snugly. I sat there for a while in the dark box, not able to see anything. After what…

    I bent my leg and put my heel down. It never occurred to me that I could get hurt. My heel slipped and I feel what seemed 500 feet, but was only 5 inches. I screamed in pain, “Agh!” My body started to panic, as if it was going into lockdown. Everything was confusing, nothing made sense, things like soap and shampoo, turned into things that didn’t even exist. My hand went instantly to my head, and the sight I saw on my hand was the scariest thing I had ever seen, blood. Us as humans like to be…
