"Kimberly, Kimberly, Kimberly!" someone whispered my name three times, barely loud enough for me to hear.
I rubbed my eyes, trying to figure out who was calling me. Slowly opening my eyes, I realized I wasn't in a familiar place.
"Where am I?" I screamed, shooting up to my feet. My heart raced when I realized I was still in the woods where we had come to search for Hannah and Louis. My mind struggled to understand how I ended up back here.
"What's happening? Why am I here? Where's Damien? Is this a dream?" I kept asking myself, but there were no answers, only silence.
I looked down and saw I had been lying on the cold forest floor. I pinched my cheeks repeatedly, hoping to wake up if this were just some bizarre dream. But nothing changed. The forest felt too real, too vivid.
