MEMORIES RECOVERY

Emily's dream.

A young woman stood in front of a balcony. She sighed as the night breeze made her body cold. She loved it.

She was already done fighting off the people she was paid to fight off, and her next job was to kill a businessman.

"What do you desire?"

A voice behind her startled her, she turned and frowned, "Who are you?"

Ever since she was ten, she started training hard after being kidnapped, she became is known hacker and an assassin, and her hearing became perfect, but right now she didn't hear the footsteps of the person beside her.

"I am someone who can make your wish come true."

"Show yourself."

The owner of the voice came out from the shadow, it was a young woman with long black hair, she was beautiful.

Again she asked, "What do you desire?"

Seeing theirs no malice from the unexpected visitor, she turned around and answered without thinking, "A life of riches and adventure."

She turned around to look at the woman, her mouth was moving, but she wasn't hearing what she was saying.

"............."

"What?"

"..............."

"I can't hear you."

".............."

She wanted to touch the woman's hand, but unexpectedly she was pushed off from the balcony, fell, and died.

When she opened her eyes again, she became Emily Hunter.

The next day, Sandy woke up and yawned. She looked around and found out that Emily was still asleep. She smiled and stood up from the bed, She went outside expecting to see her classmates running around like usual, but no one was outside, she shivered and went back inside the tent and lay beside Emily again.

Three hours later.

Emily opened her eyes and yawned, she looked around, trying to find Sandy, but she couldn't find her anywhere.

"That dream."

She remembered everything now, she was pushed off by the woman she saw on her balcony, she didn't remember what they talked about, but she sure remembered her stupid desire which made her become the host of this body.

Then, that means that the real Emily Hunter died after confessing to sleeping with Matthew, but what or who killed her?

As Emily was still thinking, her stomach roared in anger.

She stood up and walked out of the tent, when she came outside, she saw the students sitting far away from her tent while laughing and eating, she walked towards them and spotted Sandy sitting on a log, immediately the students saw her, last night's incident resurfaced and they all kept quiet.

Emily walked towards Sandy and smiled, ''Hey, you woke up early, I am starving.'' Sandy smiled, ''I kept some food for you.'' She stood up and walked in another direction, Emily raised her eyebrows and looked at the students who were looking at her.

''What?'' She asked, she didn't care that they were looking at her, but she cared about being kidnapped by them, without eating first.

The teacher from last night stood up and walked towards her, ''Emily, about last night, can you tell us what happened?'' Emily frowned, they were there last night, what else do they want her to say, she took a deep breath, ''Well, the sea is hungry at night.'' immediately she said that everybody gasped, She beamed when she saw Sandy bringing over her food.

The teacher sat beside her as she ate, she turned to Sandy and raised her eyebrows, sandy smiled and whispered, ''He is the GYM teacher, mister Jordan.''

"Age?" she asked.

"27, I think."

Emily nodded, she was 27 too in her past life, she smiled and turned to Mister Jordan, ''It is dangerous here, we have to leave.''

''Bullshit!''

One of the students shouted, they love it here, true, last night's incident was scary, but how can you ask a student to leave a place where there is no parent, homework, or any house chores?

''Jordan, the island is dangerous, the sea is more dangerous at night, we need to leave or else, more lives will be taken.''

Everybody gasped, including Sandy, not because she said that the island was dangerous or that their lives were at stake, but because she called the GYM teacher by his name, they all turned and looked at the teacher, expecting him to lash out, but he was lost in his thought.

Emily pulled Sandy towards her tent, leaving Jordan in his thoughts, she opened up her tent and frowned, someone was there eating. 

''What are you doing?'' the person turned and smiled, ''Emily, I came in looking for you, but I couldn't find you, the food cooked today was not tasty, so I came here instead.''

Emily's frown grew deeper, ''Get out.'' that was the only word she could muster up now, she was too hungry to argue with the girl in front of her, and the food she ate outside was not enough for her stomach.

Jane was stunned, she opened her mouth to say something, but no words came out, she looked at Emily and gulped, her face was scary, gradually she stood up and walked toward the tent's entrance, she stepped outside and wanted to walk away, but she heard Emily's voice, ''Don't ever come here without my permission.'' She clenched her fist and walked away.

Sandy beamed, ''You could've gotten rid of her ages ago, why doing it now?'' Emily sighed and sat down on her bed, ''I don't know, listen, Sandy, this place is very dangerous and we need to leave, and by leaving, we need to go deep into the forest and find the other side of the sea.''

"How do you know the island is dangerous?"

Emily frowned, she didn't also know how she knew that the island was dangerous, she just had this feeling.

Ever since she woke up this morning after having that dream, and remembering who she was before that unknown person pushed her off, she had become arrogant like her past self and also this feeling she was having about the island was getting stronger.

Emily sighed, she hated talking so much, she opened her mouth to say something but was interrupted by someone yelling outside, immediately she stood up and rushed outside with Sandy.

There were two bodies on the floor and a girl was on the ground crying, she was holding one of the bodies Emily frowned and walked closer to the bodies, suddenly she gasped and took a step back while pulling Sandy with her, ''Don't go towards them!'' she yelled at the teacher that was about to approach the girl holding one of the bodies.

Emily's frown grew deeper, ''It is poison.'' Everyone gasped and took a step back, Emily walked towards the girl, she bent and picked up a long stick and poked at the girl's arm.

poke poke.

The crying girl stopped crying and glared at Emily, ''What are you doing?'' Emily stopped poking her, ''I am poking you.'' The girl frowned, ''I can see that, but why?'' Emily smiled and started poking her again, ''Because it is fun.'' The girl suddenly stood up, grabbed the stick, and broke it.

The smile on Emily's face didn't disappear, it deepened more, ''Do you know them?'' Emily asked while gesturing to Sandy to bring something for her to eat, Sandy ran inside the tent and brought out an orange, she gave it to her and stepped back, Emily smiled and started eating.

The girl immediately realized she had stopped crying, and she started sobbing, ''She is my elder sister and he is her boyfriend.'' Emily rolled her eyes, the girl in front of her was a bad actor, ''Then, how did you find them?''

''I followed them to the forest when everyone went back to their tents, i wanted to warn them not to be out alone since the teacher said we should stick together.'' Emily nodded, ''How did they get poisoned?'' Emily beamed at the girl.

The girl frowned, ''I don't know, I didn't follow them into the forest, so how should I know how they got poisoned.'' Everyone gasped, they heard her saying that she followed them, but now she is saying that she didn't follow them.

Realizing what she said, the girl panicked, ''I.. I didn't poison them.'' She started crying, she wanted to poison them, but she didn't do it, her elder sister has always been the only one that has been admired and loved by her parents, the boyfriend she wants goes to her sister, she harbored a deep hatred towards her.

When she heard about the school trip, she planned on killing her, so she planned a lot of things, like drowning her, but ever since last night's incident, her elder sister refused to swim again, so she thought of poisoning her meals, but she couldn't get the chance when she saw her sister going to the forest with her boyfriend, she thought of pushing her and leaving her to die so she followed them, but she didn't expect her sister to walk back together with her boyfriend, and their faces were full of scars, they vomited a black substance and fell.

When she checked, they weren't breathing, she was happy, but she needed to play the role of a caring younger sister, that was the reason, she yelled and started crying.

Emily beamed, ''Of course not honey if you were the one that poisoned them, then you would not have been alive till now, but it is very unfortunate, you have touched the body and you have been poisoned also, and honey you only have five, four, three, two, and one second to live.'' 

Immediately Emily finished talking, the girl held her neck, she fell on her knees and vomited black substances, before dying. Everyone gasped and took a step back, Emily rolled her eyes, she is not a good person, she is only good to those who do not wish her and her loved ones dead, she turned to the GYM teacher and ate the last oranges, before wiping her lips, ''This place is dangerous, we all need to leave, or we all die.'' she smiled and winked before pulling Sandy towards her tent.

The GYM teacher sighed as he rubbed his temples, he turned towards the students who were waiting for his instructions, and he sighed again, ''Go back to your tents, pack everything, tomorrow we will be leaving. No one should swim at night and nobody should go to the forest. While walking back to your tents, beware that your body does not touch the corpses on the ground.''

No one talked, they were scared, they all turned and started walking toward their tents. Three girls stood in front of the corpses while chewing gum, one of them stepped forward and smiled, ''Sunny, what do you think?'' Sunny rolled her eyes, ''She is just trying hard to be noticed.'' she turned to the girl beside her, ''Sky, we should pack our cameras too, maybe we will find an interesting spirit that we love to have a picture of the three most beautiful girls.'' The three of them laughed and together, they cat walked toward their tents to pack.
