When I woke up I was emaciated, I haven't eaten in the whole t ime I was in a coma, and they tried to give me water but I took little..I was upset Noone had taken me me a hospital.. I had shadows under my eyes and my skin was blue almost and pale..but my hair was braided neatly by the time I woke up, by who I don't know.. there's been word of Henry in the town by us but I couldn't venture there until I'd regained all my strength. He'd probably be worried sick by now, probably thought I was dead. They won't tell me where I am just that when I'm ready they'll let me go to the town by us, and to never speak of the castle to anyone and hope that Henry hasn't told anyone to much about it... in fear of his safety I was trying to recover quickly and today I put on my clothes that were now to big to venture out and see if i could go now... "Where do you think your going looking like a skeleton my lady" I stopped and laughed "at least i can walk now, and I don't feel faint anymore" "Yes but you can't walk for 3 days straight yet, and that's how long it's going to take us to take you to astoria, the town your boyfriend is probably at. It's through those mountains and across the river there you see, it's an extremely up hill climb, it'll be weeks before you can do this so please go back inside and rest" "Remind me why there are no cars and regular busses and people here? I have so many questions and why is this town shut off and where did the castle even come from? This is crazy you know I should be in a hospital right?" But ok thank you Larry. I'll stay inside until then" I went inside and grabbed my fur coat and high tailed it to the back window which I opened slowly...the thought made me shiver although it was also freezing... I climbed out the window slowly and started walking towards the steep mountain that he had said was on the way to astoria... I couldn't stand it anymore...who knows how long they might really keep me here... so I started to climb hoping Henry would find me soon.

A few miles up and I reached the castle, which was dimly lit from within the front door was massive with a plaque that said Montgomery Indian tribe in beautiful caligraphy below it. I thought about knocking since it was so cold but decided against it. I looked down at the little Morman town below with there dim lit candle lanterns bobbing just barely visible through the snow... I clenched my jacket closer and kept walking it was getting much colder and fast ... but I couldn't feel my feet anymore and the snow was getting higher and I started to feel faint and suddenly wide awake and I was shaking uncontrollably. I tried to turn back around but couldn't my legs wouldn't move and I fell to my knees sobbing realizing I was stuck here and going to die in the snow... I told myself you'll live and I crawled back to the castle inch by inch and reached up just enough to grab the door knob and turn it and Cracked the door hoping someone would hear me " help" . I croaked with my last word i could utter and I fell onto my face onto the snow covered wooden porch...I felt a warm gust of wind as the door flew open "OH my" said an extremely old sounding woman... I felt hands grab me around the chest and another arm go under my legs and I was lifted and carried and layed on a warm couch whoever had lifted me felt quite large and built... I started to scream the warmth hit my skin like 1000 needles... and tore off my winter coat and lay there shaking.... I only remember hearing them whisper before I passed out once again... I awoke to a fire and a 2 litter pepsie bottle next to my head, and past that I could see a startling large native American women who looked about 65 with a face like leather and eyes so warm and brown and happy looking but her mouth was frowning like she was displeased... my clothes were drenched in sweat and blood and folded next to me and I had on a fur tunic of some sort. I wondered where the blood was from... I felt feverish and clammy and small and embarrassed. I should've waited like Larry had said. "What is your name child" she handed me a book and a pencil I tried to speak and that's when I realized my tongue was bandaged. I must've bitten it in the fall on the porch. The pain made me cringe and pass out again...

That's all I got lol

To be continued by someone hopefully lol

I was fast asleep but j could still hear the men talking... "I guess Henry must be who she was with before she fell off the cliff... I think she hit her head pretty hard, should we take her to the doc?" The old man chuckled darkly ..."no Larry she's not from around here... the best thing we can do is wait for her to wake up, we don't want any of the elders knowing she found the castle... there's no telling what they might do with her.. after what they almost did with the children when we found them..." at that very moment 4 kids burst into the room making a loud racket.. "Sergio, Larry, is she awake?!" "Can we play with her?" What's her name? She's She's pretty!" The old man told them all to hush.. "you all need to run along and don't mention her to anyone ok. Now get" " ok Sergio we won't we promise!" And they all left. I opened my eyes to candle light now, and I gasped for breath and tried to speak.. "it's best if you don't talk until you've had some water, here" I swallowed some water.. "where is...henry... he's my boyfriend...he'll be looking for me.. I just was with him.." "well find him soon enough hopefully before anyone else does child now go back to sleep.." I fell asleep again this time I didn't wake for they say, 16 days.....

I wanted to continue off of the previous story lol- here goes- I woke up inside a soft and feathery bed in a beautiful sun lit room with the glass reflecting the light dancing off the walls in a triangular star pattern, with a shimmer as if water was reflecting onto it outside as well, there was chandelier plants hanging from the ceiling almost sparkling almost so beautifully delicate they were translucent... next to me was a handsome man I'd say about 22 with a strong jaw and piercingly alarmed blue eyes, a buzz cut and a wiry build looking me in the eyes... I slowly tried to get up and couldn't and looked down at my torso which was bandaged tightly. I gasped and tried to say my boyfriends name but could barely get a faint rasp out-"hen-ry" it was to painful to speak so I slowly drifted back into my delinquent sleep to the sound of happy children laughing outside.... I heard the door open and the man spoke or should I say boy "she woke for a second but she fell back asleep but she did say something before that dad, she said henry..."
