       In my bag i had a map, chapstick and $74. Keyword; had. I lost my backpack when i was running from a bear in the woods. 
 
       Hi, i should probably introduce myself. Im Amika and i ran away from my life in london. I couldn't stand living in a house by myself that my family had lived in. I'm currently running through the woods in the middle of the night with nothing except the clothes on my back and my backpack, which is now on the ground a few miles back. This sucks.
    
        I'm 15 years old, live in london. I had a nice family until my dad and brother were recruted to the army a few months ago. My mother was sick when they left and didn't last more than a month. This leaves my little sister who is in our makeshift fort a few miles in front of me.

       She is only 5 but she is a smart bugger. But of course she was. She is my sister. I'm the smartest girl in england. With an IQ of over 400.

     I know about everything under the sun imaginable.

       With street smarts and school smarts i can outlast anything.

     I had gone to the closest town to try and get a little bit of rations. Since my money is now lost along with our food and a bear on my tail i'm going to have to outsmart an animal. Easy, right? Wrong.

      Bears are pretty smart in general. So this might be slightly challenging, i can outsmart it.

       So picking up the speed i used my acrobatic skills by grabbing a low hanging tree and hoisting myself up i swung up the tree like a monkey. The bear below me couldnt find me so stalked off.

    My lucky break.

     Now i need to get to my sister.

      This shall be fun.
