Confused...

That is how I feel at the moment.  None of this makes any sense.

I wake up from a God awful nightmare, only to find myself surrounded by people I have never met nor seen once in my entire life, and I am in some bizarre place I have no recollections of whatsoever.  The only thing I can discern is...it is some sort of hedge maze, a labyrinth of green walls, walls that I feel...someone or something is lurking behind.

I turn to the boy just as he is apologizing for jarring me.  Really it's nothing.  I'm a jumpy person anyways.  His voice, the tone is very sweet and full of concern.  I can tell he is a nice person, but still...I have my apprehensions.  Mum always said, even the devil hides behind pretty smiles.

[color=f7976a]"N-no, it's okay.  No need to apologize."[/color]  As calm as I can I reply to him.  [color=f7976a]"I'm...Harley, Harley Whitfield."[/color]

Will, his name is, he also seems quite shy, but then again, my people skills are next to nothing.  He asks me if I want to climb on his shoulders and investigate the tree further.  Indeed, I too am curious as to what the letters say, and Will is quite taller than me, practically a Hobbit compared to him at just 5'2''.  [color=f7976a]"Um...maybe.  I don't really have much balance, and...I'm a little afraid of heights.  I mean...we can try."[/color]  Still, I want to find out what they say, if they have some sort of clue, anything to reveal where we are, who brought us here, the questions I desperately want answered.

I was just about to consider climbing Will's shoulders, but then....

"Hi, Hello... Sorry if I'm interrupting you guys but, do you know where we are?"[/color]

"Hey, you're awake, that's awesome.  This place is crazy, right? What's going on?"

My attention shifts from Will to the two, yet only one I recognize from earlier, one of the few who were still asleep.  Now only one remained slumbering in the grass...but...who the bloody hell was this other bloke?

[color=f7976a]"Oh um...hi.[/color]  Sheepishly I wave in reply.  [color=f7976a]"We're all asking that same question.  I'm Harley and...this is Will."[/color]
