Cold, Blood freezing, Bone chilling Cold. It was the first thing that I felt waking up. Then the knowledge that I couldn't feel the entirety of the left side of my body. I struggled to sit in an upright position but my body had gone entirely numb. I tried opening my eyes, only to feel them burning and the pain hitting my brain. And DAMN DID THAT HURT!
After an unknown amount of time and uncountable trails to get up... I finally managed to sit upright. This time spent to sit upright gave my eyes enough amount of focus to look at my surroundings. Though there was no longer the brain racking pain, I still couldn't see anything except white. After a moment I came to the realization that my eyes were fine and all the White I was seeing was infact Snow."Well, that explains the Cold I guess.." I thought with no little amount of Sarcasm. The next realization I conclude is that I'm SERIOUSLY UNDERDRESSED for this type of climate. A Bloodied Tee Shirt,Jeans and a pair of Nike Sneakers. A BLOODIED TEE SHIRT!!!
"Well...this couldn't get any better could it..?" I thought.
Now comes the shock that I couldn't finish that statement as I'm unable to remember a name. Not just ANY Name but MY Name!
Enter Hindsight. 'What kind of a person am I that it took me 5 whole, Frostbite inducing minutes to come to the realization that I don't even know my own Dang name? And where I am and how I got here for that matter?'
"Seriously people... Hindsight is like that colleague of yours who takes pleasure in saying 'I TOLD YOU SO', EVERY FRIGGIN TIME that we make a mistake."
I started patting myself down to see how my Tee shirt became Bloodied (assuming that its mine).Two legs...Check. Wholesome Abdomen and chest...Check(with a little definition might I add).Two Hands...Check.Unbroken Neck...Check. (WHAT? I COULD HAVE DIED AND BE REBORN AS A VAMPIRE OR ZOMBIE! There's no harm in making sure...Alright?). Two ears...Check.Two eyes...Check.A nose, mouth, and a Tongue...Check. Hair...Chec.. OWWW!!!
Well... now I know where all the blood came from. Feels like I had a hard contact with a heavy object (banged my head somewhere.. HAPPY NOW?).
Enter Hindsight AGAIN.'That might explain the Amnesia and eye sensitivity. ' "THANK YOU MY DEAR..I DON'T KNOW WHAT I WOULD DO WITHOUT YOU!?!"(what? I can't be sarcastic with my own Hindsight? )
Okay. I've got all the facts on my current predicament mapped out (well not all but ALL that I can get right now). I've somehow gotten my head a nice, sizeable dent, which MIGHT have resulted in a nice case of Amnesia (at least that's what I think), I'm Underdressed in a SUB ZERO CLIMATE, and I don't know who I am, how I got here and for that matter where HERE is!
Now, to prioritize my next actions.
The first thing to do is to know where I am I guess. There is no visible trail leading from/to the place I am. It appears that I'm stranded in the middle of NOWHERE.
"Well... the incline of the ground is enough indication that I'm on some kind of Elevation. Maybe a Mountain? That might explain the Snow." (Mr. Hindsight? You've been Sued for Mental Harassment of an Amnesia Patient.)
'With THAT taken care of, I guess I'll just have to go downhill to find some Civilization I guess.'
Seems like a long way downhill.Better start moving before I burn anymore Daylight.
