would be puberty that
changed you. But you've gone through puberty, you’ve grown up,
nothing has changed until two months ago. When I brought you here
that night I checked your blood. It has changed, it is his blood
now. Someone has to have known they could turn you and how.”
    She looked at him biting her lip, trying
desperately to recall what had happened.
    She remembered nothing, the days surrounding the
fateful night were still blank.
    “Will I change again?”
    He nodded, “Yes but it will be slow like it was
for your father. We only have him to compare to but his changes
were several months apart in the beginning. Then when he started
taking the elixirs he never changed.”
    “I will shower and we will go see my aunt and
uncle.”
    His lips tightened.
    She frowned, “What aren’t you telling me?”
    He sighed, “They will think it was you, whatever
happened to her they will blame you. You have been gone a while,
missing since the night your best friend died. Not to mention you
were the last person to see her alive. They will blame you.”
    "I am to blame. I deserve to be sent to
prison."
    "You will never find out who triggered this from
prison. What happens if you change in prison Hanna? They will
experiment on you. The government would use someone like you. Your
father dealt with this all his life."
    She nodded, “You're right. What can I do
then?”
    He looked sickened, “I have an idea.”

    Sounds filled the air around her suddenly, as
the cold air clung to her. She could see the blue and red lights
flashing. She could feel the warmth of something touching her arm,
as a voice spoke, “It will be alright.”
    She glanced around dazed, her head hurt where
Roland had bashed it with his flashlight. Her hand shook as she
tried to lift it to her head, to feel where the warm liquid
dripped.
    The person, lifting her and wrapping her in a
blanket, spoke softly, “Miss Holland everything will be
alright.”
    She felt his warm strong arms lift her up into
him. He pulled her close to his chest. She felt everything coming
back, Roland's ridiculous plan seemed to be working.
    “I’m confused.” She whispered. Something about
the man carrying her was making her body feel odd. She leaned into
him more, as he carried her out of the woods.
    “I know sweetie, its okay now.”
    Her voice cracked, “Where is Rebecca?”
    “The doctors need to see you Hanna, they need to
examine you.” He pulled her back and looked her in the eyes. His
piercing blue eyes filled her hazy focus, “Everything is going to
be different but I promise you're safe now okay.”
    She nodded curling into him. Something about him
made her believe the things he said, even though she knew they
could never be true. She found herself smelling him, her mind
questioned it but her body wouldn’t listen to reason.
    He put her down on the cot and she was suddenly
filled with the cold air that rushed between them. The paramedics
stepped in to examine her. She watched the police officer who had
carried her, as the other men strapped her into the cot for
transport. She watched as they closed the doors to the ambulance,
ending her view of him. In the small gap of the closing doors she
caught a last glimpse of the dreaded forest. She wished she never
had to see again, but couldn’t help wondering how they had ended up
there in the first place. It looked just as it had in her dream.
She shivered and tried to relax into the cot.
    The doctors examined her at the hospital,
everyone was excited about her survival of whatever had happened.
She knew they would find small traces of GHB. She knew she looked
underfed from not eating. She hated the fact that it had helped her
look as if she were truly an escaped captive.
    When grilled about the events by the young
handsome blue-eyed police officer, she played the part well. She
was devastated about her dear friends death and sickened by her
lack of memories. She was generally no help what so ever, as
