"Serenity it's
I feel somebody tug at my blanket, trying to pull it off of me. I pull back as hard as I could.
"Mmm five more minutes Ms. Lauren"
The tension on my blanket is released as it covers me once again.
"Fine be that way, remember you asked for it"
I slightly open my eyes to see no one standing next to me. I smile and cover my head with my blanket to sleep more.
"Here we go!" I hear someone shout and the next thing I knew I was soaking wet with cold water.
I sit up as fast as I could resulting in me slamming my head against the top bunk.
"OW!" I scream rubbing my head in pain.
"Pfff...haha" I look over to see Leo laughing
"Yea, yea whatever laugh all you want jerk" I stand up and stomp my way over to the bathroom.
"Come on Serenity, It was your fault for not waking up when I told you to get up" Leo says as he is trying his best not to laugh while following me.
I walk into the bathroom and turn to face him. For a moment I stare at him then shine a bright smile.
"You know you are right! It was my fault, I thank you for waking me up" I wrap my arms around Leo, causing him to get wet to.
"Serenity!" I let go of him and slam the door in his face.
"OW!" He shouts
"NOW YOU KNOW HOW I FEEL JERK!" I yell back at him
A few minutes later I walk out to
"So? Are we going to visit the orphanage?" Ali asks
My eyes light up as soon as Ali finishes his sentence. I stand up and yank Leo by the arm.
"Come on! Let's go now!" I pull and pull until he finally gave up and stands up to guide the way.
"We'll be right behind you, we're just going to finish up our breakfast" Max says
"Ok!" I smile and follow right behind Leo
Almost out of the park I hear a voice yelling my name.
"Serena! Wait for me!" I turn to see Rin trying to catch up to us.
I stop walking waiting for her. Once she catches up me and Leo begin walking again. Happily walking up the hill I think about all the possibilities that I have a great loving family. I mean it is an orphanage, but if you think about it an orphanage is just like a family as well, just a really giant one. Looking around me I notice that the rest of the troupe had caught up to me and Leo.
"Leo, I wonder what the orphanage is like" I ask as look up into the sky.
"I wonder that as well" He answers
Rin tugs on Leo's shirt "Hand!" She tells him holding out her hand waiting for his.
"Oh I know what you want Rin" Leo smiles and grabs her hand
"SWING ME!" Rin shouts happily
I smile as me and Leo pick her up off the ground and swing her back and forth.
"Hahaha more!" Rin is laughing along with me and Leo
After a few more minutes of swinging Rin back and forth I look up and can slightly see a big bright green leafed tree. I let go of Rin's hand and run up the mountain as fast as I could.
'After two days of waiting and not knowing who I am I can finally find some clues!' I repeat and repeat in my head
Once I reach the top I bend down closing my eyes trying to catch my breath.
"Serena..." I hear someone say
"Huh? Did someone say something?" I ask still trying to breath
"I'm sorry Serena" I hear clearly this time
"Why are you sorry?" I ask as I finally open my eyes to see absolutely nothing but a giant burnt pile of wood.
"What? is this?" I was shaken I didn't understand what was going on
Barely able to get any words out of my mouth I drop to the ground.
"No.." I say softly to myself.
"It can't be! This can't be the orphanage!" I scream and scream
I look at the pile of burnt wood and decide to walk over to it.
I stop right in front of the pile and begin digging.
'I NEED TO KNOW! I need to know who I am! Who am I? Why are those people after me? Just why am I here at all' I repeat questions and questions in my head as I fiercely dig through the wood.
I didn't
"LET. ME. GO!" I struggle and struggle trying to get out of their grip, kicking or punching didn't work, they kept their grip on me until I calmed down.
Finally they place me back down on the ground letting me fall on my knees once again.
"Serena?" I hear an unfamiliar voice say
"Serena!" I hear it once again yelling my name.
I wipe my tears away with the sleeve then stand up to turn to see a small little girl along with a boy walking up to me and the troupe.
"Serena it is you!" The little girl begins to run
She jumps into my arms and hugs me tightly. I smile and hug her back then look at the boy following right behind her. He smiles and hugs me as well. I let go of the little girl to gentaly place her back on the ground.
"Serena where have you been? Everyone has been worried" The little girl tells me
I stay silent not know how I'm going to tell them that I don't remember who they are or who they are talking about at all. Looking down to the the ground I feel a tap on my shoulder, I look up to see Leo by my side reassuring that everything is okay. I nod my head in agreement then smile at Rin gesturing her to come over.
"Rin come meet this sweet little girl and play with her for a little bit. I need to talk to my friend over here"
Rin grabs the little girl by her hand and drags her to the one part of the area that is still green and full of grass.
Once they were far away enough I begin talking to the boy in front of me.
"Your name is?" I ask
"Nate" He answers
"Nate, my name is Serena right?"
"Yes it is.....Why are you asking me these questions?" He asks me
I look back over the leo still standing by my side then look back at him.
"To be honest with you I don't remeber a thing about myself. Who I am, Where I am from, How I got here. I don't know anything at all"
"Your'e Serena Roseberry, the best tree climber in the orphanage, the toughest girl I know, and the most stubborn" He starts explaining to me.
I nod no
"I don't remember" I look back down at the ground
"Serena..." He whispers sadly
"I'm sorry....Nate" I say hugging him tightly
Nate smiles and points over to something. I look over to where he was pointing, I smile along with him and begin walking towards the tree.
"This was the tree we would always race up, luckily it is still here standing waiting for us to climb it once again." Nate tell me
"Let's see if I can still beat you even without having my memories." I run up to the tree and place my palm against the bark.
"I have to tell you that this tree gives me a nostalgic feeling"
He smile and stands in front of the tree beside me.
"Ready...Set...GO!" I yell
Me and Nate begin racing up the tree, finally I was having fun again. I was swinging and climbing that tree, it was as if I already knew the way up without thinking.
"Come on Nate you can do better than that" I yell still climbing
"Shush up Serena. How's about you slow down and you finally do the dishes for once" Nate yells back.
