The screams continued. I felt a strange desire to find where they were coming from. I gathered the book and took off into the cavern. The screams came less frequently as I got closer, almost as if they knew I was close and they didn’t need to be as loud.

I turned the corner and saw a beautiful girl laying on the hard cavern floor. I went over to her, but I didn’t see anything wrong. Her pluse was strong and her breathing was completly normal. I looked over her again to make sure I hadn’t missed any cuts. She look fine.

Then I felt it. A small presence in my mind where I could usually fell James. This wasn’t just James though. I sat down and turned my mind to focus on James’.

“Ok” I heard James say.

“Thank you” A stranger’s soft voice responded.

“James? Are you ok?” I asked gently, not wanting to scare him.
“Anna? Your ok?!” He asked me excitedly.

“Hi Anna, it’s nice to know your name.” The stranger’s voice said. “Thank you for making sure I was ok.”

Making sure she was ok?
