I'm lost in this dark room. No one is who I can see from here. The more I walk the darker it gets. It's not til' I stop walking that the room gets lighter. I hear whispering and crying. The anguish and begging in their voices makes it worse to handle. Scary faces come towards me and through me. Scared, I cry for it all to stop.
As everything cools down, I look around. The only thing I can see now is that same shadow person I had seen in my room and at my party. He was grasping two spirits. One was my grandma for sure and the other was what looked like my mother. They both had fear in their eyes and were screaming for help. I ran towards them to try and save them. When I reached them they were gone and it was only me and him. I was frozen from him being too close for comfort. He knew that and touched my head. In that second my vision went blurry. When I came to I was inside a cage. It was a unique cage though. The bars were made of fire, and no I am not exaggerating. On the other side of the bars were two hounds that looked like zombie dogs. The mist looked like the Grin Reaper that you would see in the movies. I guess they didn't know I was awake because I heard what he was talking about.
"We got the girl sir," he said on the phone. " I used the cage like you said. She doesn't look dangerous though." The person on the other line muttered something but I couldn't understand what it was.
When the man was done talking he said "yes sir" and hung up the phone. I heard footsteps and acted like I was still asleep.
The mist stepped up to the cage and said, " You know that I can sense that you're awake right?" I sat up and sighed out of sadness.
"How did you do that?" I asked in surprise.
"It's called mental pathics. It is one of the many powers I have. As you can tell I am a reaper."
"Like the killers in the movies?"
"No,no,no. We do not kill," he said with a chuckle, " we just collect the spirits that are ready to go. Like every other creature we have certain gifts that help us with our tasks. Usually only the ones that are ready to go can see us, but for some reason you could see me too."
"Where am I?"
"You are in a place called Entre Ellos . In english it means the in between. You either can come here in a dream or in a coma."
"How do I get back?"
"Just say these words....casa es donde im de y donde pertenezco"
"Okay. casa es donde im de y donde pertenezco." When I said those words I got dizzy and everything fell dark. When I woke I was in my room on my bed.
"What a weird dream," I told myself sitting up. I got out of bed and went to fix something to eat. I checked the time and was in shock. I was late for the interview for my first job. I ran and got dressed. My dad drove me to the interview, but I was too late. On the way home I was crying a little. When I went back home I had a bad feeling.
