  An Unforgettable Past (A Trying Journey)  
  This is my past that I will never forget. It has tought me a lot in life. One lession I cherrish the most is never give up.
And here it goes...

 I awoke to the sound that I dreaded that most. The exposions and sound of screams that I knew to well. I quickly climbed out of bed and tossed on my robes. I longed for it not to be what I was thinking, but I knew to well. I knew where I was needed and hurried there. Running to the fields thoughts zippped threw my mind. I did not want to be here, I have no desire to fight these people.
" Sand hurry we need you!" A voice called out.  I enetered the battle field and stoped. Everything stoped, I couldn't hear screams, I couldn't hear explosions, everything was frozen. I looked around and remembered what it was like before this all happened. My family, my friends, and my home back in Kugnea. I was still mad at my father for sending me to this place. But there was no other place I would not rather be than at home. I took a deep breath and I was back on the battle field.
" Sand what are you doing! Com'on!" As I ran to the plead for help.
 

  The next morning I woke up to the sun shinning into my eyes. I smiled and got out of bed. I had that feeling again. When your stomach feels like someone had punched you. I tryed to forget about it, and threw on my robes. I walked down to the river and spashed my face with some cold water. I felt good, the relief spread through my body. All I wanted was to live a life with peace. We do not have to fight. But these thoughts just didn't come into the minds of some people. As I looked back into the water I saw someone who I did not reconize. I stared, trying to find out who it was. I felt like I knew him, but I couldn't put my finger on it. With my mind racing with questions, only one came to mind... was it me? Have I forgoten who I am? I have. This is not who I want to be. Somone who fights, somone who kills others. Tears fell down into the water. I watched the rippels grow larger and larger. I must get out of here, I can not keep living like this. I looked up and thought of only one idea. It had been in the back of my head since i got to this dreadfull place. I decied to run away. I took a deep breath, got up, look around, and ran. I did not look back, not once, not ever.


  The days were hard, I had no food, no water, and no shelter. I could only think of the worst. If I die, I will never regret running away. This is what I wanted the most, not the other life I was living. As all hope started to leave my body, I could no longer hold myself up. My feet gave out and I made a big thud onto the cold hard ground. I felt dizzy and blackness started to surronded me. I tried to get up but it was no use. Just then a bright light shined into my eyes, as an outline of a person came into shape. I felt useless, I could not protect myself. I droped my head, and fell into a deep sleep.


  I woke up panting and sweating. It was dark, where was I? I tryed to move, but I couldn't. Pain shot into my body, I screamed. I fell back, and darkness consumed me.


  I awoke again to sunlight this time. Feeling much better than the last time. I could move my arms and legs. I lifted myself out of bed, and fell. My legs were weak, but I lifted myself with all the strenth left in my body. I made myself to the cloth covered door. I peered out and saw an amazing sight. Flowers everywhere, blooming. Pink, green, yellow, and red filled my eyes. The smell was just wonderful. I thought I was in heaven.
"I see you have awoken, Welcome to the family of the Monks." A gentel voice call out to me
