Alright so this is my first post and I'm really hoping it's somewhat good

The room was dark, the only light coming from under the door frame, the only noise being the faint ticking as if taunting her with the last seconds of her life. She knew what she had done was wrong, but she could never bring herself to stop, it was in her blood. Not only was it wrong but it went against all the rule that she had been taught as a young girl. She had fallen in love with a girl of the normal people.
She sat against the wall her arms chained by heavy links, impossible to break. The musky air made her over sensitive nose itch, skin crawling from the damp and moss covered wall behind her. She heard footsteps coming closer, a shadow showed through the crack under the door. Then mumbling of two voices, one light and feminine the other deep and masculine. A few moments later the heavy metal door swung open and a young looking girl stepped through the entrance.
"Why Ashley?" the young girl asked "why do you always have the need to be so different and break the rules?"
"Because, sister, I have no need for these 'rules' they are pointless and not necessary," Ashley told her sister with a shrug.
"Ah but Ashley this is where you are sadly mistaken our rules are very much necessary," the young girl told walking up to Ashley and squatting in front of her, "you see if we don't have these rules then what would stop us from doing stupid things, like the stupid things that you have done?"
"How is what I've done so bad, I don't understand Kyla, I didn't choose to fall in love with Spencer… it- it just happened," Ashley said looking at the ground in utter defeat.
"Well Ash I don't really know what to tell you, you're going to have to tell that to the masters," Kyla got up and shrugged while turning around, she glanced back to see her sister still staring at the ground looking defeated, "Ashley I really am sorry, I don't like this as much as you do, and if it's any consolation prize I don't see the problem either."
"Yeah thanks Ky," Ashley muttered back as her sister left the room and the door closed.
Ashley closed her eyes, hoping that maybe it was all just a horrible nightmare and she would wake up with Spencer back in her arms. Slowly the brunette fell into a restless sleep.
A couple of hours later she was awaken by a burly man shaking her, "Come on get your ass up! The masters are waiting for you! Come on!" the man yelled still shaking her.
"Alright, alright I'm up ok?" Ashley said, "asshole," she muttered under her breath.
The big man then unchained her from the wall only to replace them with a small pair so her hands were chained behind her back and her feet shackled together, giving her only a small amount of room to move her legs. She was then taken out of the room and turning left she began walking down the hall, to the masters. Soon they came to a huge decorative wooden double doors. Two guards stood on either side of the huge doors, once Ashley was stood in the middle of the oversized doors the guards opened them as if they weighed nothing. On the other side of the hulking doors the masters were sitting in a line of six at there council table. Ashley walked into the room her eyes not leaving the ground her breath becoming labored and shaky.
Slowly her eyes drifted upward to meet the stern gaze of all six of her uppers. Refusing to look them in the eye other then one, her gaze fell upon the one man she always thought would understand no matter what, her own father. "Daddy?" she questioned shakily. His face showed no emotion other then disappointment, he looked away from her only making Ashley's heart sink more.
"Ashley Davies you are here to be tried on the account of breaking law and going against the code that you yourself promised never to break," the man farthest left said loud enough for everyone in the room to hear, "do you have anything to say to us before we hold conference?"
"Please masters let me explain," Ashley pleaded looking each of them in their eyes, "I know you don't have to, but please hear my side of the story not just what you have been told."
"You have no ri-'" one man began to say but was cut off by the only man with a higher rank then himself.
"Let her speak," Raife said with authority, looking to his daughter he nodded slightly, "alright Ashley tell us your account of this 'story'."
"Thank you father," Ashley bowed her head. She looked up taking in the true appearance of the masters, they seemed a little bit scarier now that she might have a chance to explain and live.
Yeah ok so this is just really to test the waters see how well I do and if it's any good at all I'm going to post another chapter here in a few days. So yeah that's all I got for now
