Chapter 2

I froze. Didn't I just do this?

"Katlina! I have eggs!" I repeated the same actions I did before to prevent the ringing from entering my mind. But instead of messing with the groceries I went to the bathroom straight away and grabbed the key, also repeating my saying.

I used the key on a different door in the hall. The key didn't work. I tried it on all the doors in the hall and it finally work on one that was strangely painted green. I walked through it.

It led outside to mom's garden. I only knew it was hers due to the giant floating block in the sky that said "Mom's Garden". It disappeared after a second and I set to work doing whatever I was suppose to do. Which for now was grabbing plants and pulling them out of the ground to see what was underneath.

After pulling out all the plants I walked over to an apple tree where I pulled down an apple to eat it. On it was inscribed "Calypso Products". I ate it. And died. Again. And again until the arrow head clicked "Play again". The voice was louder this time and said, "Goddamn it!"

After repeating all my actions leading to the garden, I instead walked forward to the seemingly obvious path to the north. It led to an area with a shed. The door was unlocked. Inside was some cobwebs and an old rusty chest. I opened it and found a new key.

I took the new found key and walked out of the shed and went south to the lower garden. My mother stood in front of the green door. My only way inside.

"Hello Raina." she purred.

"Mom?" I spoke and became confused as the ringing came back and I fell to my knees.

"Headache?" she smiled. "I wish to tell you young Raina. I am not your mother. I am simply a being that wishes to see if you can achieve your goal. This might not make sense to you, but the game has changed. You Raina, must get out." she turned to leave then stopped. "Oh and look out for my sister Calypso. She is your enemy and can come in many shapes and forms."

She disappeared and the ringing stopped. I heard the voice again. "What the hell was that!" Funny, I thought the voice only came when I died. But now his voice was crystal clear. "Oh! Calypso products! Clever!"
