Eyes

Chapter 1

Eyes, big, wide eyes. With big wide eyes, opened to see the world. Colors stretching across the land. Seen through big, wide eyes.

        Eyes. Eyes are used to see. Eyes are used to look for danger. Eyes are used to live. I don't have eyes. I can't see. I can't see danger. I am Ava Shin, and I am alone.

                                I brush my hands against something smooth and dusty. I remember it being called, sand. I lay against the "sand", waiting for my parents. The wouldn't leave me here by myself. They would come. I placed my hand on something cold and hard. It was a rock. A big rock. I curled under the rock. I closed my eyes, start to dream about something blank. Everything was blank.

                                I woke up to a load roar. I opened my eyes. Turning my head, I hear another roar. The sounds of the growling and clawing tried to make me deaf. I covered my ears, just as the roaring stopped. I uncover my ears. The growls sounded like a big cat. A lion or a... tiger. Why would a tiger be on the island? Loud paw-steps shake the ground. I curl under the rock again, slowly falling asleep
