(TW: small child trauma, there will be some abuse (not shown but definitely mentioned), and swears, like, a lot of swears so if youre sensitive please leave and maybe read one of my other books!)

Elizabeth leaned against the tree, watching as it rained, this was her only safe spot, the forest, she put up her umbrella, and pulled out here Notebook and pen.

she looked out into the forest, seeing a deer laying down, she envied the deers simple life.

she drew for a bit. she noticed something out of the corner of her eye, whats that? She thought, getting up, she walked towards it, it looked like some sort of picture, of a weirdly empty space with houses scattered around, she touched the picture, blacking out, she woke up in the place the seeming picture depicted,

just with a lot more... things... she got up, looking around, she bumped into something... Someone.... She backed up, signing 'sorry!' As she looked up, to her horror, the person has no face, just... Eyes, hundreds of eyes... and wings, what..?

" arə you okay  -=•?" They asked, she couldn't make out their last word, she signed 'yes, can you repeat that last part though?', they blinked, oh, they probably dont understand sign language, she thought, she nodded, "wherə arə your parents?" The.. thing asked, elizabeth blinked, and looked down sighing,

"...do you not havə any?", she nodded, "oh.. arə you from h$*ə?" They asked, kneeling down, elizabeth looked confused, "do you und3r$74nd?", this.. must be a weird language barrier.. i kinda understood that last word. she shook her head, she turned around, its gone! How am i gonna get back??

She panicked, "do you need help?" They asked, elizabeth turned and nodded, "why dont you f0110w me?" They asked, elizabeth held out her hand, the being held hers gently, "my names xaerynx," xe said

"Whats your name ◇¡tt♧3 ○n3" xe asked, elizabeth looked around, she noticed a patch of dirt, she let go of his hand, walking towards the dirt, she wrote her name in it, "elizabeth?... may i call you lizzy?" He asked

Elizabeth nodded, taking his hand again. they walked through a crowded market, xaerynx noticed something he liked (which was very easy seeing as he had.. an ever changing amount of eyes), he let go of her hand, "lizzy, d○nt m0ve until i come back, if you lose sight of me stay still, ill find you." xe walked off.

A while later lizzy was still waiting for xaerynx, she looked around and decided to count different types of things, (eight tv heads.. one of which was an old tv with a colorful glitch screen that had purple eyes and was wearing a suit), she turned around and looked for xaerynx in the crowd, still not there, she sighed

Turning again looking for xaerynx still, she got dizzy, where is xe?? She thought, hes taking so long!! She was annoyed, sighing she decided to spin some more, then she stood still after getting dizzy, someone bumped into her
