I was still in bed and Shawns little brothers friend kept walking by to peek and look at me. When I woke up my shoes and duffel bag were all on the bed with me. and the mattress was sitting next to the bed frame that looked like a pull out couch. I was confused saying I didn't remember throwing all of my stuff on the bed like that. I was wearing pj pants but it was getting hot so I went to the bathroom to change into shorts. One bathroom had a toilet but no shower and the other had a shower but no toilet. I went to the one with no toilet because it was bigger but I thought it would look funny if I also went to the other bathroom becuase I had to pee.
All of a sudden I was floating a river in Europe with Shawn, my brother Josh, and my grandma. I had a really pretty bracelet on that I kept scraping on the ground so I was about to go put it on shore with our stuff because we weren't very far out. The military started storming in and herding people to these buildings. They were separating the guys from the girls into two separate hallways. There was a glass window between the two hallways so me and Shawn were running along to where we could still see each other. I started crying and screaming when they took us away into other rooms. I told this lady I need to find my family because it's our first day in Europe and they are the only people we know. She got really annoyed with me but started walking me around to find Shawn. I went through all of these rooms packed with young people and didn't see him anywhere. I went to this cafeteria type room and I saw my brother and screamed and ran over to him crying so much and hugging him. I told the lady that this was my little brother and we kept looking for Shawn. We went to sit at a table because the presentation was about to start. Josh asked if I opened the present at the table in front of each plate. I said no and asked him what it was. He said "braaiinnwasshinggg" and the he said just kidding its a tiny book. My grandma was there and she said at least we found each other and can be together right now. I was still crying and said I don't want to die. I told my grandma and my brother that I loved them in case the presentation was really them shooting everyone or something. They started playing a really weird movie with stuffed animals from our childhood playing different world leaders and acting out what is wrong with the world.
I flashed two months into the future and it was me walking down some beach. I didn't know what had happened for the past two months or how I ended up walking on the beach but when I looked over I saw Shawn. He was naked laying out in the sun hanging on to some bars with a bunch of other people along the beach like some kind of punishment. I walked over and they said he was done and he jumped up and looked at me and said did someone send an angel? I started crying because he was super sweaty and exhausted looking, and his face looked all beat up and he had a tooth missing. He asked why am I crying his favorite thing to do in the morning is to bake in the sun and then jump in the water. He jumped in face down on the ground but didn't get back up. I thought he was just messing with me but he didn't get back up so I went over and pulled his head out of the water. I saw him start to smile so I dropped his head back in the water. He said "hey! what if I was really drowning!" His supervisor started to walk up so I had to leave. I walked a little ways but then started to walk back over because I just wanted to look at him from a distance because I missed him so much. I went back over and he was sitting on the side of the beach with a bunch of other people. I was up on a side ledge so I jumped down right next to him. Everyone was watching some show going on of the other side of the river. All of a sudden everyone started freaking out because the supervisor was walking by. They were asking to see name tags and I didnt have mine so Shawn tried to cover for me and show an extra name tag he had but the lady said no come over here. He gave them his name and I told them mine and they asked me why I didn't have my name tag on me. I started blubbering that I have no idea I never ever leave without my name tag please don't kill me. They said I could get transferred to Florida for something like this and I said oh please no like it was some death wish or something. They said they would just give me a warning punishment instead. I got two tags that said name suspension and listed a punishment. One said get really drunk and watch the wizard of oz and sing somewhere over the rainbow. I cant remember what the other one said. I was walking to the officers room to ask them and I said excuse me can I ask a question about this violation I have and they said no and laughed at me so I said sorry thank you and walked off. I still couldn't remember anything from the past two months not even where my room was. I walked into a random room and these girls were in there and I told them I couldn't remember anything and if they knew what my room number was. One blonde kind of bigger girl said she keeps the list somewhere so I followed her up and down a bunch of ladders but she couldn't find it. We went back to the other girls and they started scrambling saying the general was about to be here. He walked in and everyone stood up. He asked if we had been reading the required reading and we all said yes sir. He wanted us to quote a passage out of it in the voice of the character being read. I think the book was Don Quixote because one girl quoted the part when he sells his soul to the devil or something. I had two other books with me and when he got to me he grabbed them and asked me what these are. I said im sorry sir just recreational reading. I borrowed the girls copy of the book and started flipping through the pages trying to find something I could pretend to quote. He picked up one of the other books I was reading and said ah take note girls now this is the kind of book you should be reading of your free time. I flipped open to a page to quote and it was something about when he proposes to some lady. It just so happened to be the page that the general was also open to in his copy of the book and he said oh I love this quote! I started reading it with a really bad accent and I asked him if I could read it out of his copy instead. I was flipping through the pages in his book but they were so bible thin I couldn't turn to the page before. All of a sudden an alarm started sounding and he said he needs to take the book and leave. I was praying thank you that I somehow didn't have to read the quote. Minutes later a loud bang sounded from upstairs. I noticed the top bunk beds were only about a foot or two away from the ceiling and I was wondering what bed I have in my room. I thought it was the sound of someone getting shot and I started saying I don't want to die.
All of a sudden I was two months back in time where it all started. A narrator in the sky said something like and here is where it began and now our character will solve a few missing pieces about what has happened. Everyone was waiting in line to check in and get uniforms. One officer was splashing water on peoples faces out of a little squirt tube as they walked by. Another was checking peoples eyes and if they were brown they would zap them and but permanent blue contacts on them. If they had brown hair they would zap it and change it to blonde. The girls were given light blue striped shirt and short skirt. I was in the river again and we were doing some kind of exercise. The supervisors were walking by again and everyone stood to attention and raised there arm to say hello. One guy tried to pretend like he got sucked underwater and swim away but the supervisors had a guard dog and a shark on a leash following him. They said come back or we will release these animals on you. He kept swimming so they set the animals free and they caught him and ripped him to shreds. I was walking back to my building but I still couldn't remember my room number. I walked into a room and went up a ladder and saw Shawn. He didn't see me but I saw him reading a book. This creepy old lady with no shirt on and really saggy pointy boobs was laying on a bed talking to him. I walked back down the ladder and sat on a bed with two girls and started asking them questions. I said I still cant remember anything. I don't even know what my room number is. I looked in a mirror and I had blonde hair and the stripey outfit on but my eyes were still brown. I asked if I was allowed to wear these shoes and I looked and I was wearing Shawn's converse. I felt sad inside because I knew I was only wearing them because I missed him. I asked how long the training lasts and they said about 6 months. I was thinking we were supposed to go back to America long before that. I was thinking about my grandma and how I guessed it would be good for her to get out of her comfort zone and meet other people from around the world. They said they felt bad for the old people because once they are past about 60 years old they just stop feeding them. I started freaking out crying saying that my grandma is here too they cant do that! I asked if there was no way to escape or check on people or anything!? They said no and I saw visions on really high walls with spikes and swarming with cockroaches. I asked them what their names were and the first girl told them but the second girl I recognized as the one I met in the future who was trying to help me find what my room number was. I asked her if it was Taylor and she said no its Gabrielle and showed me her name tag. One of us said we would meet each other again in a couple of months.
