You woke up in complete darkness, no idea where you were. You could feel wooden floors and walls, but nothing else to make out your location.
A clicking sound echoed from outside, filling your very being with terror. There were Clickers around, which was always a terrifying experience. You just had to stay quiet, and hopefully you could work out where you were if they went away.
You gasped as you heard the sound of gunfire outside, and then the clicking stopped.
"I think that's all of them! you heard a voice call out from outside, which sounded female.
"Good. You wanna head back?" another voice asked.
"Give me a sec, I just want to take a look around," the other voice answered. You could hear the sound of drawers being pulled open. It sounded very close.
Dim light suddenly filled your vision as you felt the room move sharply without warning. You gasped and froze up in fear as you looked up into the gigantic face of a young woman. Not able to stand looking any longer, you looked around and realized something. You were inside a drawer! What the hell had happened?
"What the fuck?" the giantess exclaimed under her breath. For several seconds, both you and her continued staring at each other in bewilderment. You were terrified, and she looked stunned into silence. Eventually, her lips curled into a small smile. "Hey little lady, it's okay. I'm not gonna hurt you."
She looked kind, and her words radiated care. You didn't have a clue who she was, and trust didn't come easily in the brutal apocalyptic world in which they lived in. But you had the feeling that you could trust her. Your body relaxed, and you took a closer look at her. She looked around nineteen, and you could see the tattoo running down her right forearm. Her brown shoulder-length hair was tied back to keep it out of her way, although one or two strands ran loose. Freckles just added to her cuteness, but then came the dimples, as the young woman's smile slowly increased, urging you to trust her. Being rescued was one thing, but by someone this cute? That was an added bonus.
"I'm Ellie, and I'm gonna get you out of here." She then laid her hand inside the drawer, inviting you to step onto her palm. In that moment you made your choice to trust her, and climbed onto her hand.
What happens when she gets you back to Jackson?
