《Forsaken》Chapter 2: Alleyway
Advertisement
[City of Kashin, Aidea: Late Noon: A random alleyway]
My eyes slowly open.
Where am I?
Who am I?
These are the 2 main questions I ask myself.
My mind is blank… I can’t remember anything...
This doesn’t matter for now, I need to find a way to survive here. I don’t know if the people here are hostile or not.
As I walk out of the alleyway, I see large amounts of people walking around, talking, selling, buying, arguing. Where am I if there is so much commotion?
I walk up to a lady walking by.
Uhm excuse me… Where am I? (?Me?)
AHHHH… Guards! This little piece of trash is trying to touch me! (Random Lady)
Huh? Why is she so rude?
Boy! (Guard 1)
Get away from the Missus! (Guard 2)
Get out of here scum! (Guard 3)
They push me violently to the side.
Ahhhhh!!! (?Me?)
I think I got a bruise.
Don’t you dare put your dirty little hands on the young mistress!!! Now scram!! (Guards)
I guess they aren’t going to help me.
I walk up to a man selling apples.
Excuse me sir? Can you help me? I think I have a bruise. (?Me?)
Who do you think you are? Are you trying to steal from me?!?! Get out of my sight before I beat you!! (Apple Seller)
As I run away from him, I accidently bump into a man.
WATCH WHERE YOU’RE GOING KID! (Man)
This guy is huge… He is also wearing a sword on his back…
He looks scary… I run away into an alley.
I put my head into my arms and cry. *cries*
Why is everyone like this?!? Why is everyone so mean?! I’m just a kid!! I-I’m scared… Where are my parents?
Ah… The sun is setting… The sunset is so beautiful.
I’m tired…………...

8 72In The Tall Grass
Elizabeth Wilson commits suicide. She was the golden girl among her peers in Darkwood, Washington who stood above the pressure of her drug-ridden town. Explore the summer before her senior year that triggered the domino effect of Elizabeth's emotional and psychological breakdown that lead her to take her own life. This is the prequel to the main story, Petrichor and was never intended to be made. I wrote this because I wanted to explore Elizabeth's character and show how the main characters have changed since this event. I decided to release this first because Petrichor is undergoing a full rewrite. In the meantime, I'm writing a side story called Mourning Glory that takes place between the second and third act of Petrichor. Development is going rather fast so I suggest to to read that if you like this story
