Amy trudged to the door leading to her sisters apartment. It was a cheap two bedroom place her older sister rented. After the incident... She had come to live with her sister. 

She knocked on the door three times before entering as per usual no one else was home, which meant her sister was still at work. That suited her, she liked to be alone. Or at least that's what she kept telling herself. 

She sat down on the cushions of her couch as she waited for the alarm that would signal that it was time to eat. She ate everyday at 5:30 pm, it was one of her routines. One of many. 

Soon the alarm went off and she got up, grabbing a plate of fried chicken and macaroni. But just as she made her way to the door of her room a strange feeling enveloped Amy. 

She felt dizzy, and a nauseated feeling hit her before she threw up into the grass that souronded. 

Wait grass? There was no grass in her room, there couldn't be! 

She slowly looked around confirming her suspicions. She could see trees everywhere her eyes roamed, casting shadows as the sun loomed over head. 

Amy started to freak out, this wasn't her room. This wasn't right! How did she end up in a Forrest! Panicking Amy knelt to ground gently rocking herself back and fourth. Finding comfort in the rethamic motions. Back and fourth. Back and fourth. She did this for a few hours, even as the sun began to dip lower and lower the Forrest growing dark and darker still. 

She knew she had to get up, to try and find her way home. But she didn't want to, she wanted to just stay here. But she couldn't, she knew that. So slowly hesitantly she got, stretched her body and started walking. 

This was not the first time she'd been lost, so she knew what to look for. She had to find a stream or lake to follow. Just as she stood up a strange prompt appeared in front of her. It was a blue box that moved into her line of sight no matter were she turned her head.

Alice took a moment to process what was in front of her, slowly reading the words. It would probably be a reasonable reaction to Yelp or try to swipe away the box. Alice however just ignored it as she was too engrossed in her task. 

Find a stream. That was Alice's entire existence and everything was secondary. She tried to listen, straining her ears until she heard the sound of running water.

Carefully she navigated her way through the forest, while following the direction she thought she heard the sound coming from. Eventually the forest gave way to hot sand and cool breeze as Amy stared dumbfounded at the beach in front of her. 

This couldn't be right, she didn't live anywhere near the ocean. Was this a dream, Amy thought that would explain the box that was still there. 

She felt the panic tighten in her chest, but she pushed it down. It may not be a stream but it should still serve her purposes. So she begun to follow it in the hopes of finding some sign of civilization. As the hours dragged by Amy began to realize this might take longer then she thought it would. 

A yawn escaped her mouth as she realized that she was tired. She needed a place to sleep, and after looking around her eyes came on a cave. It wasn't her room and she groaned but she needed a shelter. She needed a place to sleep or at least take a nap. So she grudgingly stomped towards the cave muttering "it's not my room" under her breath. 

As she entered the cave, she slowly sat down, far enough that the chill from the sea breeze wasn't as bad. She brought out a one of two bottles of medicine she always kept on her if she wasn't at school that is. She opened the bottle letting one of the clonadine drop into her waiting palm before putting it into her mouth and swallowing the pill. 

She then begun to rocked back and fourth waiting for the medicine to kick in as sleep slowly, almost too slowly over took her. 

She work up the next morning sore and hungry, but she didn't get up, didn't leave. She didn't want to, she just wanted to stay in the cave but she knew she couldn't. She was hungry and cold and tired. She hadn't even been able to shower. She felt out of wack, everything felt wrong and the more she though about it the more the feelings started to overcome her. 

Before she heard a Yelp, a very human Yelp. Amy bolted up and ran out of her cave. Their was people. People meant food, people meant beds. 

"Help!" Someone screamed. Amy just kept moving forward trying to find the person on sound alone. It was as hard as it sounded. But eventually after what felt like hours. 

She found the person, or rather person's. Two of the group seemed to be badly wounded while a third the person screaming seemed to be some kind of priest. That was what Amy assumed based on the staff and robes. Priests wore robes and carried staffs, amy knew that. 

She froze not knowing what to do. Even as the girl screamed at her, she huddled as the girl yelled at her to help. She just wanted the screaming to stop. She just wanted food and now she was getting yelled at. Did she do something wrong? 

"Please help me, I need a mana potion or some bandages. Do you have any medical supplies or healing skills?" the priest kept asking her, urging her to respond. But Amy couldn't. 

The words didn't reach her ear as she stood there shocked. But a strange feeling overcome her. It was not the same as the one she had felt before coming here. Wherever here was. 

It was better? No that wasn't right. Not as annoying, yeah that sounded better to Amy. [Share magic] she said in an almost mumble and felt a forien presence in her body. If she had to explain it in words it was like their was two lakes in her body, but she hadn't even known she'd had the one lake before this moment. 

The priest let out a surprised squeek but quickly got her bearings and to Amy's amazement her hand begun to glow and she saw the wounds on the badly wounded strangers begin to knit and close. 

The priest was sweating now but tried to smile weekly. "Thank you stranger." But Amy had enough with all this new stuff! Glowing hands? Wounded people? Amy didn't want any part of this so she ran even as the priest began to call out in surprise and worry. 

"Wait this island is dangerous. You shouldn't go alone!" But Alice kept running and running. Until she saw another strange sight. A large eagle seemed to be eating from the carcus of some strange blue deer. The eagle had arcs of electricity running down it's exterior and it's slowly looked at the new comer. 

It screeched and Alice ran. The eagle flapped it's wings and took to the air chasing it's next prey.
