Introduction.

I guess I must admit I sometimes gain inspiration after reading other people's post to post about something. Those people who have actually inspired me to write up a post about 'something' are Yuin Harng (Banking 101) and Ronnie which will be this episode/chapter/post/story.

Whatever you guys want to call it. Congratulations to both of you! :D I really appreciate that you spark something up not only for yourselves but for me too. I hope this story doesn't get too lame, when it does guys, let me know.




CHAPTER 1

I woke up in a dazed. The last thing I remembered was that I had left my room lights and table lamp on while I slowing slept to the slow music on my radio. Starring at my table lamp, I realized everything else was in pure darkness and silence. I got up from my bed to try and switch the lights on and the radio, but it wouldn't work. I then turned to my old television set to try and turn it on but it wouldn't too.
"Weird". Nothing seemed to work except my table lamp.
I sat down at my work desk and starred in the blank air as I was still drowsy and confused. As I got my conscious back, I gazed at my table lamp only to realize there was a brown-paper envelope. Which on it wrote "Jason Howtz". I stretched my hand towards the envelope and turned it around and found a red seal at the back. A kind of red seal that hasn't been used for a century. Curious to see what's in the envelope, I tore the red seal open and found a medal and a letter attached with it.

In it wrote...

Dear Mr Howtz,

Congratulations on your bravery towards saving your nation, you have been rewarded with the prestigious Red Cross. We look forward in seeing you soon as you were chosen...


That's when the letter stopped as the letter was torn. I don't recall any of these nonsense I said to myself. What bravery? What Red Cross? and who is looking forward to see me? I thought hard but I came to no conclusion. All these does not make any sense. I put on my top and walked out of my room, everything else was pitch black. Even my neighbors' apartment block across the street was in darkness. After crawling through the darkness searching for my torch light, I felt a sharp intense pain at the back of my neck. Before I knew it, I was loosing my sense of control and direction. Everything around me was spinning and I fell into complete darkness.

I found myself in a detention room, again, I was completely drowsy and confuse as to what was happening. My head was still spinning and I saw a note on the table which was printed in dark bold letters.

"WELCOME HOME"

I couldn't comprehend what it meant as I was still recovering from whatever that was happening. As I regained myself, I found a bag at the room containing a map with a big red X on it, a pocket knife, tools and some rations. I staggered out of the room scared as I cautiously walked through the hall ways of this detention block not knowing where on earth I was. I thought, "Whoever sent me here definitely has a purpose, and definitely gave me some provisions to do whatever it is." As I walked through the hallways I found a possible exit through the emergency stair case, however when I reached the ground floor, the exit door was locked.

I searched through my bag to see if any of those tools would help me unlock this door and I was in luck. After fiddling with the door knob, I managed to unlock the door. As I pushed the door and it swung wide open, I was in shock and wasn't prepare for the enormity of what I saw...
