Desperate Times

By Bob Dattolo

It's been too long since I've seen my wives. My family. We had three weeks home after being rescued from our time in northwest Canada, then I was set up and committed to an institution.

Now I'm free.

Free and heading south towards our home to find them.

It's beyond time to be with them and hold them tight and let out all the emotions I've kept bottled up for far too long. Too bad this new world without advanced technology has turned far too many people into savages.

Our enemy committed me to get me out of the picture, so what does that mean for my people? What's been happening over the months I've been gone? It's time to find that out, because my life hasn't been an easy one since my fifteenth birthday, when Celeste and I were taken.

Is it possible to find my family in such a crazy world? Before this all happened, a trip like this should have taken hours. Is that likely? I have a feeling it's not.

My name is Bell, and I'm desperate to find my family. I'll do anything to make that happen and cross any and every line in the sand out there to reach my goal. The world may have become harder and more dangerous, but that just means it's more than time for me to stop holding back. I'm an elf on the edge, and it's time for the real me to step out into the light.

After all, I have a goal, and I'll do anything to reach it.
