Chapter 5 Pack life

• I woke up slowly and fought my way to consciousness as if trying to swim up from deep, dark waters.
• I was 9 again, there was smoke everywhere. People were running around trying to escape the fire, there were gunshots. I closed my ears trying to shut out the chaos, someone grabbed my shoulders. It hurt.
• I looked up at the face of the man, but it was all blurry. Then I was running again, I hid under a table and shut my eyes and ears again.
