I woke up in a middle of a castle. As I look at my surroundings, it felt like I was in the 18th century. It must have been the Dark Presence placing me into this timeline. I saw a paper in front of a desk and as I look at it, I got luck coming to me.
It's another manuscript page to be used to manipulate the story, and the title is called 'Princess Tutu Meets Alan Wake'. It says I meet up with a boy and a duck. If I'm going to be a character in this story, then I will have to be an author as well. Besides, this is also my story and I will have to find a way out of this place so I can reunite with my wife, Alice, and my best friend, Barry, and get on with my life.
"Excuse me, mister," I heard a little girl calling out to me and her appearance has dark hair and red eyes. Not to mention she is wearing a white ballet dress. "Who are you?"
"I'm Alan Wake, and you are..." I replied, then I ask for her name.
"Rue, and the person beside me is Mytho, my prince," she introduced the guy who happens to be her prince. He has white hair and dresses nicely.
"Hey, Mr. Alan Wake, what is your clothes anyway, and the two equipment you're carrying?" the boy asked.
They take me to a dining table and I was given a meal. While we were eating, I decided to tell my new friends some truths behind my appearance, not to mention I am carrying a gun and flashlight to defend myself from the Dark Presence.
"So, you're not from this timeline?" Mytho asked.
"Yes, in fact, I only came here because I was led by the Dark Presence," I told him and his girlfriend the story of my arrival to their time.
"The Dark Presence?" Rue looks shocked when I told her this. "Is this entity bad news?"
"Yes, it is," I replied, then I told them that it has many abilities like omnipresence, super speed, super strength, invulnerability, and possession.
Luckily, I told them it has a weakness and that is light.
"Very interesting story about this entity, Mr. Wake," Rue is getting intrigued by this. Then again, she is not from my timeline.
"Thank you, Rue, and just call me Alan," I stated.
"So, Alan, what's the next move?" she asked while standing up to a table.
I showed them the manuscript page and they agree to go a house near the lake through a flying carriage. Maybe that's where we will meet a boy and his duck, just as the page described. Since it's nighttime, I would advice them to carry some lamps and good thing they have some. Anyway, I'm worried about this timeline because it doesn't have bullets that I can reload and some lights to weaken any Taken if it comes by.
Either way, I'm gonna have to find some paper and write down the things I wanted for this timeline to have so that I wouldn't have any problem surviving this timeline since that I'm not born in this century.
