In the State Once Known as Texas

In the State Once Known as Texas From far away, Erin heard the familiar hoot of a night owl. The sound reminded her of growing up in the flatlands of the state once known as Texas, but that was impossible. Owls, like so many animals around the world, were extinct. Confused, Erin blinked, unsure of where she was, and only knew her head ached. Rolling onto her side, she realized her hands were bound behind her back, and if she had to guess, it was with her own handcuffs. Hay and sawdust covered the wooden floor, and she put it all together as the memories of what happened flooded her mind.
