Chapter 1 - Who are you? who am I?

my head was hurting, I hissed in pain as I sat up, I held my head, but as I sat up the pain slowly disappeared, that made me happy, I looked around my surroundings, I was in in a room, on a double bed, there was a window on my right, and two doors ahead, I got off the bed, I noticed I was dressed in a white tee and blue faded jeans. I walked to the doors and opened the left one, it was a closet, there were some clothes hanging and some drawers.

the door next to it led outside the room, I saw another room opposite but stairs, leasing down, to my right, I took the stairs down, at the bottom of the stairs I heard talking coming from my right, I walked to my right I walked into the kitchen, I saw three people here, people I didn't recognise, they were having a heated discussion, but when they all saw me they stopped talking, the inly other woman there came to me and asked how I was feeling

"I'm ok, I think" I told her she was wearing a white tee and blue, faded jeans too, "so I'm sorry to ask but where am I? And who are you?" all three people started to laugh, one of the men came towards us he was also wearing a white tee and faded jeans.

"Dude, none of us know who we are" he looked at the others for confirmation, and all three nodded, I was confused

"But how is that possible?" I asked, the other man dressed in, you guessed it, the same outfit as us, came forward

" What's your name?" He asked me I smiled

"I'm..... I'm?" what started as a duh tone became a question, but the second guy carried on

"Where are you from? do you have parents? Grandparents? siblings?"

"That's enough, leave her alone" the woman came to my rescue, I smiled at her thankfully.

"We think we have been drugged, the drug has caused us to lose our memory and we have to figure out who we are, where we're from, and how we're related, if we're related? the man to first talk to me said, my headache was coming back

"We need names for each other" I said as I rubbed my temples with my eyes closed, when I opened my eyes the woman was standing next to me with a black marker pen, she handed it to me, I took it and just stared at it, to answer my unanswered question, she turned around, she had the letter 'S' drawn on her back, the guys turned around, the first man had the letter 'H' the second man had the letter 'A' "check mine" I told them as I turned around

"There is no letter, yet" 'S' exclaimed "You have to choose your letter" I thought for a while, I had to come with a letter, this letter would be my name for the duration of my stay, let's see, what letter can I choose, I had 23 letters to choose from.

"I got it!, I want the letter 'Z'" I was happy with my letter, so whilst I turned around S drew my temporary name on my back. H came to shake my hand

"Welcome to the clan, dude" he told me I thanked him. we had nothing to do, nothing to talk about as we didn't remember much, we found books around the house and we sat around reading, S and I read so did A but H didn't want to read, he found a t.v in one of the downstairs rooms, when we went to check on him half an hour later he was silently watching 22 men chasing a ball, and a 23rd man who kept blowing a whistle, it looked weird but A also seemed to enjoy it, neither H nor A would even let us talk, although they had no idea what they were watching they knew they liked it, that was good enough for them.

After maybe an hour the game on the t.v finished and we decided to find something to eat, we went into the kitchen and raided the fridge, we found enough food in there to last a week, we made sandwiches and sat together at the table and ate together we talked about the game

"I have no idea why these men were trying to kick a ball into a net, but I loved it" H announced S and I just laughed but A agreed with him.

"I read a great book" I announced " and I'm hoping a book here will tell us why we're here and how we can get home." the laughter stopped, everyone remembered that they had forgotten their lives "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to.... you know"

"It's ok, don't worry about it" A assured me, I just smiled and carried on eating, I decided to stay quiet.

After we ate we washed up, S washed, A dried, and I put away, H cleared the table, it was a well oiled machine, I briefly wondered if we knew each other, in the 'real' world, probably not, once we were done I retired to my room and decided to read some more.

I spent the whole afternoon reading, I finished the whole book, it took me around four hours to finish it, I went back downstairs to see what the others were doing, they were all watching t.v, sat in silence, I joined them, they were watching a game show, a man asking questions and other people were answering, but 'H' was answering some too, as was I and so were the others, we realised there was alot we remembered, how to eat, how to clean, how to talk, walk, write, read, but when it came to ourselves, we hit a wall.

We carried on watching t.v to see what else we could remember it seemed we remembered everything, just not ourselves. Who did this to us? and why?
