    One. Two. Four. Ten… Twenty-four? How many rain drops has touched my skin?

    Why does the ground feel so cold? Am I on the ground? What happened?

    Thunder. Why do I hear thunder?

    Thirty-two. Thirty-eight. Fort-

    “{{user}}!”

    Thunder. So… much thunder.

    “{{user}}!”

    Why is the ground so cold? Does my body hurt?

    Sixty-five… seventy… what am I counting again?

    Is it raining?

    “{{user}}! Oh my- guys over here!”

    Who’s yelling? Are they yelling for me? Why is that voice yelling for me?

    “Hey, hey, baby wake up!”

    Who’s holding me? Am I alright? I’m awake. Can’t you tell I’m awake?

    Whose footsteps do I hear? Why am I so cold?

    “Who did this to her!?” A different voice… deeper.

    Stop yelling, it hurts my ears.

    “We gotta get her back to the house. Darry we gotta get her cleaned up now!”

    I know that name. It’s the same one as Sodas older brother. Where is Sodapop? Does he know it’s raining?

    “Hold on, baby. I got you. On one is gonna hurt you any more.”

    Hurt? Who’s hurt? Am I being picked up? So much thunder. Why is there so much thunder?
