Prologue
The door cracks open and out flies centuries of dust, I cough and wave my hand in front of my face as I walk into the darkened room. I pull out my flashlight and looked at this ancient bed chamber; the draws were appeared to be cut from the finest woods and stuck together from a millennium of non-use. I turn towards a towering shape with a black curtain draped over it; I reach up and pull it off and to my delight the most beautiful full body renaissance wall mirror.
It looked to be carved of red maple wood and elegantly decorated with white timber. I was so entranced by it's beauty that I had almost missed the beautiful red and black maple wood canopy bed in the chambers center. I walked towards it and stood no more that two feet from it, I reached down to touch the polished black wood and ran my hands up the rose and vine covered bed posts. The curtains of the canopy were made of blood red silk that had faded only slightly through out its time.
The curtains were very thin and through them I saw a figure lying in the bed; I walked to the side of the bed, with my flashlight in my mouth, I reached up to pull the curtains apart and was shocked at what I found. She was beautiful a glass doll covered in dust but her face was covered by a blue vail and though I could not see her face she looked so familiar it hurt to look on her so I looked at her body instead; she was covered slightly with the bed's thick sheet so I could see her dress, it was a dark blue and white long sleeved Victorian corset dress. She had on white corset arm warmer with blue ties and a white choker.
She must have been royalty to have such beautiful things, I flashed my flashlight over her body and something shiny caught my eye. It was a gold locket; I popped the latch and inside was a small painting of a child with rust colored hair and brown eyes and holding the child was me ! I dropped the locket in shock and fell to the floor to crawl away and bumped into a small figure, a little girl in a child's red corset dress; my heart skipped a beat when I realized it was the same child from the locket.
She reach out for me and said, "Mama?" as turned to crawl away from her I came face to face with the women who lying in the bed; with her vail gone I could see her face and it was mine as I stared into her crimson eyes as she smiled a friendly, deadly smile and then the world went black.
I know it sucks right now but I'll try harder next chapter, R&R and as always enjoy
