A sudden gust of chilly wind awoke me, I was no longer on the couch at Dr Lectors home, I was now scrunched up in a ball in what looked like someone's drive way, I struggled to stand up, everything felt really sore and my clothes were all messy and dirty,
 my hair was draped over my eyes but it wasn't greasy or smelly, I must have been cleaned lately,
  'I must be living on the street, but I don't know why ?' I suddenly heard the rev of a motorbike engine and then at the entrance of the drive way, 3 motorbikes pulled up in front of me blocking my way, they were all wearing black leather and there helmets were black as well so I couldn't recognise any of them,
'well, well lads, look who it is, little miss freak' the one in the middle seemed like the leader as he was the only who remained on his bike as the other two got of there bikes and started walking towards me,
 'what do you want?, I haven't anything' the other two gripped my arms as the leader got of his bike and walked slowly towards me, I struggled against the others, but they wouldn't give,
'but we do' the guy in front now had flashed a knife, oh god, there going to kill me, I struggled violently against them but they only gripped me tighter, I winced slightly,
 'hope you know a good doctor'.

He brought the knife up to my face, I felt the cold metal dig into my face, I then felt warm liquid dripping down my face,
 'ahhhhhh!!, stop, please!!!' I had no control over my body when my leg suddenly jolted upwards and my knee went straight into his manly parts, he howled in pain as I wriggled my arms out of my confused captors,
'get her !!!!' the leader yelled, I heard the other two's footsteps behind me, I pushed there motorbikes to the ground and then ran down the road as fast as I could,
 'get on the bikes you idiots, run her down' the leader called out, in the distance I could hear the revs of there motorbikes growling with energy, the cold wind was stinging painfully against my cheek, tears were starting to form behind my eyes, I was suddenly blinded by a pair of headlights heading towards me, the car screeched to a halt as I turned sharply barely missing the bumper, I tripped on the pavement as the car stopped, I heard the doors open as I stood up once again to find that the motorbikes and there riders had suddenly vanished,
'are you alright young lady?' it was a male voice, I turned around to find to figures in font of me, I could only see there shadows in the light of the car, on of them stepped towards me, then the other, I bolted for it,
'wait, stop' the other one shouted as I heard there footsteps echoing behind me.

I had now reached a small bit of wood, I had been running for a while now trying to escape the two men, but to no avail, they had long since stopped trying to persuade me to stop running but they continued to chase me, I only looked back once to find that only one was chasing me, after a few more minutes of running through the never ending woods I stopped to catch my breath, I could no longer hear any footsteps behind me and I now felt a little safe, I sat down on a large stump and tried to bring some warmth to my frozen body, blood had finally stopped flowing from my cheek and the pain was now just a dull ache,
 'where's help when you need it?' a snap of a branch made my ears twitch and my head turned to the sound of the break, a man was standing within reaching distance, I jumped up from the stump and he shortened the distant between us,
 'please don't hurt me , I'm sorry I nearly ran into your car I ...'
'don't be afraid, I won't harm you, I'm here to help you' the other person was still out of sight, which didn't make things any easier, after what happened earlier, I was more afraid of this guy than I was with the other 3,
'who are you?'
'someone who can help you live, someone who can protect you, aid you when you are injured' I had almost forgotten about my cut, his hand gestured to sit back down on the stump,
'please' I hesitated for a moment before sitting back down on the stump, he then knelt beside me and began to clean up my wound with a handkerchief and some ointment he got from his pocket, 
'may I ask your name'
'Sarah
'well Sarah, my name is ....'

I jolted awake, my breath was heavy and fast,
'Dr Lector'
