And Then There Was Nothing
Chapter 1
"Find Me!!"
The sun's light filled the sky like a waterfall into a basin. Its luminance was so overpowering today, not to mention the heat. Ellie looked up from the small book she was reading and sighed. All of her "normal" friends had gone shopping in the new mall nearby, something that Ellie couldn't stand even when the weather was absolutely awful. She sighed again and closed her book. Maybe she should go take a look around. Her jean shorts burned her legs with long absorbed heat and she cussed softly to herself. She ran up the hill into a small thicket where she had played as a child. It had a small brook and lots of wildflowers, which now spread their fragrant smell across the field and thicket. She had always been drawn to that thicket, she never understood why though. She always saw that the thicket was full of life, no matter what season or temperature, it was always filled with small flowers of some kind and small animals. She never had told anyone about it, not even her "parents". As an orphan, she thought to herself, you learn to keep secrets to yourself. Grinning, she decided to venture farther into the thicket than ever before. She crawled on her knees and cut off branches with her small replica of a kantana (her favourite kind of sword). Finally she seemed to be in the middle of the thicket, where the small and middle-sized bushes turned to tall trees. She had never been this far, this far away from everything. She smiled as the warming feeling of happiness filled her heart. She felt something else tugging at her heart as well, causing her to look around. As she glanced at the ground she noticed something, a large keyhole like shape in the ground. As she leaned over to touch it something filled her heart with the most fearsome terror. She whirled around and saw a horrible.little.. bug? Was that what had scared her? She laughed and pushed it away, ignoring it. She suddenly whirled around again. IT WAS HUGE FOR A BUG! And now there were ten of them around her with a slightly larger monkey like one. She growled at them but they drew closer, not scared by her antics. She drew her mini-kantana and waved it menacingly. They made a laughing noise and as they dragged her through the keyhole she could see a tall tan man, with the most menacing stare, looking straight into her eyes. She saw his mouth open and could barely make out his words, " Don't fear the dark. Let it go and all will be easier." She screamed and wanted to fight but, they were through the keyhole, and on their way to places anew.
Neat eh? Well I will write the second ch asap.
