Chapter 1 - Nick of time

"It's not like he's some kind of magician right? I mean magic doesn't exist...it's all playing in my head... I'm just imagining things" Elena repeated frantically, trying to get her brain to believe it.

"I need to get out of here, he's crazy, she's crazy, they're crazy,all of 'em there's no way all this is real" running down the 100 and 1 grand stairs, confusion and fear swirl in her head, one thing that was clear is that she needs to be out of here. What was she thinking in the first place, the signs were obvious it kept on ringing bells in her head but she ignored it. This would probably be the worst adventure ever and the last...if she would make it out alive. There was no way she was going to die here, she had to warn the others, her parents, her siblings, her best friend they'll had to be safe it was the only way to make up for the trouble she had caused them. She owed them one...Big time. With the new sets of goal and motivation... determination burned in her eyes , her speed increased. The gown she had wore sure was taking it's own revenge on her and her heels, her poor 100,000 mag heels had to be thrown away to enable her swift movement. If she makes it out alive she would come back, more prepared and gift her self the most expensive shoe she's ever owned. Her legs ached but she kept on going she could see the stairs end, the door, light.. yes she had to get into the lights that's her only door to survival.

She could hear noise behind her... they were coming.. her courage faltered, fear crept in her mind, her body shook recalling the gruesome experience but she had to be strong.. she had to be strong for...

"Arhh" she yelled in pain, she had let her gown down accidentally stepping on it, quick enough she held the two wings of the stairs but it was not enough to hold her resulting into her landing on a hard floor, stairs,her body shook each time she went down. Her head had hit the floor several times as blood tricked down her face trying to ger her self together amidst the pain she turns on her side and ends up rolling down the stairs.

She felt her body roll down a smooth surface, she made it down the stairs barely alive. The throbbing pain in her head made it so heavy, her vision becoming blurry but not enough to blind her from the lights not to mention the injury she'd sustained. Slowly she raised her self even if she wasn't going to walk out alive she would drag herself out alive. She moved slowly the rolling down had drained all her energy but not the flames of determination burning in her.

All this came crumpling like cards when she heard the familiar laughter, it was quite close by now fighting so hard to not look back and die like a coward, tears streamed down her face just when she was about to grab the door and launch herself out... it happened again the tiny yet seemingly sharp strikes of lightning missed her only by few inches but definitely did what it was meant to do, the closed with a loud bang and the light was gone, her hope her safe zone. Her body shuddered when the door closed was this the end, she wouldn't ever get to bid her parents good bye or apologize for insulting her best friend and endangering the life of her friends. How would they know she had fought with death to earn them and make things right.

End...this was it , she was powerless, there was nothing she could do now, she turned round to meet the already familiar hideous face but only to meet one ... even worst. Frightened she moved frantically to the back, cursing... it was going to end her now a flash just brushed through her face and it's head rolled, blood scattered everywhere, all over her. Her blood she thought had filled the place , this was it , then something rolled down her side.. it was an head , a creatures head. This was it... she slumped
