The Noise
(just the beginning but please comment)


Silently she sat among the dirt and debris waiting for The Noise to pass. Her knees were scuffed up and the crimson blood glistened in the full moonlight. The green ferns plastered to her quivering chin as she tried to silence every muscle in her body yet every shake of terror resulted in another earsplitting snap.

Her ivory complexion and fierce blue eyes shone blatantly in the darkness of the night. Spotlights shone above her as she pressed herself further into the mud as the faintest tips of light caught the top of her honey blonde curls that cascaded over the conture of her body as it hid inside a black hoodie that tried to secure her from the moistness of the earth.

Tonight was a horrible night to run from The Noise. Maybe that's why they came for her, she knew it was only a matter of time. Her friend had been taken the night before. She thought of him silently remembering his beuatiful jaw that sat meaningfully below sinceregreen eyes. She sighed as her body fell further into the mud.

As she was sitting among her dream a voice sounded loudly through the valley floor. Birds flocked into the sky as she felt her body remember sthey were after her. She made a run for it, her body lightning quick but too fatigued. a hand embraced her throat as the light shone in her eyes. She tried to sheild from the raybut it was clear, they had already taken her id.

"Sir, this is her, the Crestwood girl."

"Good work private, escort Miss Crestwood to the van."

"Yes sir." the man's grip around her neck pressed her back into the earth as he used the other to secure her hands away from her eyes. "I never understand why the pretty ones run."

With that he picked her up onto her feet and led her into the convoy where she sat among fourteen others like her. No one dared speak as she all looked at one another with mournful glances.

From there a second officer checked her id again as once more the light flashed into her eyes before a holler and a rumble silenced the valley floor and the convoy slowly jerked along slowly. She quivered in terror as she watched another bead of crimson blood bead to the surface of her ivory knee.
