Ally turned to flee but the doors slammed shut behind her. She screamed. She turned back around and scanned the room in a panic. She raced across the main hall and through a door. She found herself in the kitchen. It was lite by tiny globes that hung from the ceiling yet they did not hold fire. She dove under a counter made of cold smooth metallic stone she had never seen before. She sat there scared more than she ever thought possible. Holding her legs to her chest shivering with fear. Yet, not a single tear touched her cheek.
She sat for what like hours. Then suddnly she felt a hand on her shouldar. She jumped and hit her head. There next to her was a girl a few years older than her. "Hi," the girl said.
"H...h...hi."
"She's not here right now. You can come out."
"Are you sure?"
"Yes. She went out for ingrediants."
"oh, okay." She slowly climbed out from under the counter.
"So, did you follow Alec?"
"Who?"
"The Wolf. His name is Alec."
"He works for her. Doesn't he?"
"Yes. I heard he use to be a man," she giggled.
"Why would that be funny?" asked Ally.
"I don't know. Are you hungry?"
"Alil."
"Well, do you want a sandwich?"
"A what?"
The girl giggled and then went to this shiny box in the corner. When she opened it light erupted into the room. Once Ally's eyes ajusted she say mountains of food inside. Her tummy rumbled at the sight of it. She'd never seen so much. The girl grabbed containers that looked as though they were made of glass but when Ally tapped her finger on them they did not make the glass noise. "They are made of plastic."
"What is plastic?"
The girl just giggled agian, and got more stuff from the box. She also got a loaf of bread from a box on one of the counters.
"What kind of stone is this?" Ally asked as she ran her fingers on the metallic surface.
"Its stainless steel."
"It's what?"
"It's a kind of metal."
"What's metal?"
"We have lots to teach you."
"Who is we?"
"I meant 'I' have alot to teach you."
"I just want to get home."
"We'll see."
"huh?" "Here's your sandwich," she slide a plate with a turkey in between bread with lettace and tomatoe.
Ally took a big bite and it tasted amazing. Before she knew it she had eaten the whole thing.
"Thirsty?" asked the girl.
"uhuh," Ally said while shaking her head.
"Here," she slide Ally a big glass of milk.
"Thank you."
Ally began to drink and just as she finished the last sip her eyes glassed over. Time froze in her mind then she fell into the girls arms, fast asleep.
"That was to easy," said the girl.
She picked up Ally and carried her up into the tower and layed her on the bed. As she left the room the door disappeared. She walked up to the hall mirror and stared into it.
"Why was it that easy?" She shook as though she had the chills and as she did she turned back into herself. The witch.
"Now i have a daughter," she smiled.
