Chapter 12 - still inside

squeeeeek...

pang..

The large door was pushed and open the cool breeze brushing over their face. for the first time in a long time asmien could see trees and bushes all over the place though it was more like a forest, to her this was paradise.

imagine being caught by a Wicked witch and being trapped In a dark house running round all day just to please her and on top of that she had to take super caution for even the slightest mistake could insight the ire of the wicked witch.

she never thought it'll be possible to escape that place though through her experience in there she had learnt a lot of potions and science stuff, it wasn't worth the time she had spent there. when she thought about she meeting her parents again she remembered what the person writing those notes with a purple pen was saying " do parents forget their children? ". she really hoped she still had a home, parents, family and also her sanity. she normally didn't have any friends to count on so she had no hope of having one out of the blues she just hoped things could get normal again.

after a while of observing around she finally spoke out " I never thought I'd see trees again"

" look !". ralph said looking in a certain direction. he could see faint lights of fire from afar. there was someone camping there... they both started running fast toward the fire they were so so happy " I'm never gonna eat peanut butter again,. ever again ". asmien exclaimed happily she had eaten mostly only peanut butter for a very long time it was getting into her head.

" you can forget about pumpkin pie for me, first food when I get back, vanilla milk shake !!" ralph added with excitement.

but after they ran for a while asmien noticed there was something purple sticking out one of the trees " hold on , wait a second!!" asmien called out for Ralph's attention this seemed to be something she was familiar with. after observing that particular tree she noticed what was sticking out was something she had found in natacha's apartment it looked like a comb but purple and shiny " a screetle scrub,. a sunset lilly. why's it here ? " asmien said looking really worried again. she tried peeling off the bark of the tree and surprisingly it went smoothly off the tree but after the outer part was peeled off there was a white painting of flowers on the body of the tree.

". oh no Ralph!! . ralph!! . ralph!! ,. ". asmien called out to ralph though he must have heard it the first of second time she was too traumatized to think now .

by this time ralph also noticed something, there was a purple fog up high in the sky . it was really high but impossible not to notice whilst looking up, but since they got out they didn't even care to look upward now that they did they were afraid. " the door,. it wasn't the way out"

" we're still in the apartment!" asmien said with tears flickering from her face

" what's that? ". ralph heard some noise from afar it sounded like hooves of an animal running close.

and after a while of looking around they finally saw what it was. it looked like an horse running really fast at them. it didn't look friendly . " run !!! " ralph yelled out as he puts his legs to work on escaping from that beast but they were too slow compared to the horse within a few seconds it was already standing before them, they were both on the floor the creature caught up so quickly they couldn't imagine it. the horse looked deadly they thought but after a while their hearts sank, the horse they've been running with had a purple horn on its forehead and lots of hair on its back neck it had more than a normal horse could have. this looked like a unicorn from stories they've read before but on those stories unicorns were nice and friendly creatures built from fairy tales but now they were seeing one in front of them, a fierce one

it raises it's two front legs up and made a loud noise, this was the sound of danger to them. they crawled backward screaming in shock. they had seen a real unicorn but a scary one. after a while the unicorn dropped it's legs and walked toward them slowly and menacingly like it was trying to say. .... no where to run now losers...

but just after a while of doing that the unicorn backed off on an instant looked at them and growled in pain, it ran back growling here and there till it was out of sight.

" what happened! ". asmien asked. something was scaring off the unicorn to her this was a bigger danger

" maybe something scared it off ". ralph wasn't awArtof the latest danger that might be lurking around.

they both turned back to look at what might have scared away the unicorn what they saw were the bodies of several dead kids strewn apart they wore strange clothes clothes ralph looked to the left and saw some more of the same thing it was everywhere. " wait every kid story ends a truth, this is Hansley grittles. Hansley grittles is real... asmien I think we're in one of her stories ". ralph started saying things that made no sense to asmien.

on the other hand asmien looked sleepy as she walked in a straight direction " so delicious !. yes so hungry.. ". asmien begins to walk dizzily in a direction ralph tried stopping her but her resolve for getting there was stronger than he could imagine. after following behind for a while ralph noticed where they were heading was a wooden house with lots of lamps ranged on the yard leaving no space but just a path leading to the entrance door. asmien walked straight to the door ralph had no choice but to follow behind, he was too afraid to walk alone.
