Eerie
My skin grew cold and trembled as the sheets tried to keep me from the chilly air. The light was on and the television was on mute, my attention captured by a book. My eyes were drowsy with the hunger of sleep, slowly closing and opening every time they could. I wanted to continue reading the thrilling story kept me from sleep for just a few moments. Soon after much fight I finally gave into my slumber.
Darkness surrounded me, the air grew cold and heavy, I founded difficult to breath. A castle stood before me, I looked up and saw the immense towers, there was an ominous aura emanating from it. The sky was clear all I held my flashlight tightly and smirked. I looked around me and saw twelve different people around me. There were two small girls, twins, a tall slender guy his eyes were hazel and his skin pale, a girl in her mid twenties with blond hair and blue eyes, there was three other girls whose futures I couldn't really see except for their sleepy brown eyes, and four different guys carrying around some heavy equipment blocking my view to them. A pale middle age man stood in front of us and beside him was a young man in his mid twenties. "Hello my dear guests I sure hope all of my welcome guests feel at home here at the Gates of hell, my cherish home and these land precious treasure." The young man next to him smiled at me with naïve eyes. "Welcome everyone, my name is Nate and this is my uncle Vern." I gave him a grin and looked at one of my collogues.
We walked to the castle and smiled as the enormous place took our breath away. A man stood over one of the castles towers his shoulders moving just a bit but he stood like if he was crucified giving us his back. For an instance just one little moment he turned his head towards me. There was nothing on his face he was nothing but just a shell he had not organs or flesh where his face was suppose to be at. My eyes open up in wonder and small fright. Nate and Vern separated us into two different groups I was with Vern and the small twins as well as the young blond girl and the slender guy with the hazel eyes, the rest of the group went with Nate. Vern took us in a small tour of the castle, when we reached an enormous room we were trap and everyone was captured by demons everyone around me was being ripped to shreds, their blood all landed on some type of cauldron. They held me up and dropped me in the blood. The scent of blood made me feel dizzy and weak. Nate and Vern smiled and kept submerging me into the bath of blood. When they finally grabbed my hair and pulled me up they held a sharp object to my stomach. As I felt it on my flesh I woke up and sigh in relieved my body was trembling.
