I was starting to get frustrated, I remembered that Lynn was a friend and I knew that she was supposed to be with us. No one was paying any attention to me though.

I threw up my hands and stalked over to where the little imp... Yes, that's exactly what he was! How did I know? It felt like my memory or knowledge of my world was coming back to me now. I smiled and started looking at where Lynn's name tag had been. There was at least 4 sets of footprints, I leaned down close to the muddy ground and sniffed. It smelled vile, and I spat on the ground as if the smell actually put a taste in my mouth. Orcs! Orcs had captured her!

I jumped up and ran to the fire. "Orcs captured Lynn! And they took her that way." I pointed toward the setting sun. "She was alive when they left; but I don't know for how long." I stomped my foot: "Would you all listen to me!"

Kiya took a deep breath and said: "Calm down, DQueene, okay? Just calm down. Do you know that your eyes turn completely silver when you're, hmmm, upset?"
