Excerpt: Soul Forgotten (CH 1)

There’s a shiny new look to Soul Forgotten! I spent some time polishing this girl again, because after a year my skills have grown and I wanted to give it the additional love. So, here’s a fresh look at the first chapter!

Not dead. At least, I don’t think so.

I’m not sure how long I sat in numbness, completely swallowed by a blinding white light. My mind was as blank as my vision, silence ringing in my ears. Or maybe that was actual ringing.

The loud, high pitched shriek slowly faded as the rest of my body settled and feeling tingled through my limbs. I stared up at the night sky, color returning around me despite the blurry vision. My lungs and throat burned as I took a breath. My mouth might have been dry, but I definitely knew the metallic taste. Why had I been screaming?

As the trees came into focus, I felt my heart pick up in panic. I couldn’t remember why I had been screaming. In fact, I couldn’t remember where I was, or what I was doing. But even worse, I couldn’t remember who I was. What could have happened to make me forget my own name?

I squeezed my eyes shut, trying to steady my breath. I couldn’t have a panic attack now. I needed to focus and figure out what the hell was going on. I needed to be logical here.

Senses; the metallic taste and burning throat must be from screaming. The smell of fresh air and sweat swirling around me was just as concerning, especially because the sweat was me. Well, the muggy air might have had something to do with it, but for some reason I didn’t feel hot. Focus. If my legs were sore and I was this sweaty, had I been running? And how did I end up on the ground?
