Midnight, I awoke, under the shade of what seemed to be an ash tree. "How long have I been asleep?" I asked myself, looking up through the gaps in between leaves I saw the moon shining down upon me, illuminating all my surroundings. Looking around me I saw a girl, someone familiar, but I couldn't place her at the time. It was like I've seen her somewhere and talked to her before, however, that part of my memory seemed fuzzy.
Walking over to where she stood, catching glimpses of her face, it was truly a masterpiece. She had pale skin that looked almost flawless in the glow of the silvery moon. As she became aware of my presence, a turn of her head and with it a smile that seemed more to herself than as acknowledgment to someone. Five steps later and the image of her seemed to flicker and a few seconds after, it was almost as if she was only an apparition. Now, I am truly alone and left to my own devices, with no sign of salvation or anyone to help me.
