But I wasn't dead. Was I. My heart rate quickened and my lungs began to burn. Stupid nightshade. I had no idea what it was but I hated it with all my heart.
I blinked; where did the light come from. I tipped my head towards the cave mouth and was greeted with warm splashes of sunlight streaming through the cracks in the rocks.
I lay there still, not moving, hardly even breathing. The cold, damp floor made me tingle, but I just had to stay. Winds that whistled surrounded my head, whilst I lay there my heart went numb.
