The ancient lift slowly came to a halt and all of you stepped off.

Misty seemed entranced by the intricate details and structures of the building but not in a good way, it was almost as if she was searching for impurities and any sign of danger.

The corridors were extremely confusing since there were no signs and the door numbers were small and not always in order, you had to walk in circles until you eventually found room number 61.

"Where are 62 and 63?" Misty asks confusedly, scanning the room numbers beside every door nearby.

"This place is a maze, its not like I'm going to wander off now that I have my room" Queenie says unmoving, unlocking the room and pushing the door open.

"Fine!" You say, slightly agitated by Queenie's selfishness but you were determined to not let that get in the way of your holiday, "Come on Misty. Lets go and look for our rooms"

Misty walks slightly in front of you as she hummed her favourite song to keep the nerves away.

It seemed like hours as you circled the same corridors, you had walked around so many times that you could remember the sequence the doors were laid in.

You keep looking around and checking the numbers but they were completely random. That was when you saw a crazy looking woman. She had wiry blonde hair and wore dense black eyeshadow around her eyes. She had a cigarette between her cracked lips and had a sickly smile plastered on her face.

"Lost?" She asks, leaning on the wall with her foot pressed up against it for extra support.

"Erm, yes actually, we are." You smile at her uncertainly, "We are trying to find rooms 62 and 63."

The woman scoffs and chokes slightly on the drugs she was smoking, "Well, you are in for a treat" She remarked.

You shifted uncomfortably and Misty just stared.

She spat her cigarette onto the floor and you watched its fiery embers sizzle into the carpet. You could've stopped it burning with your powers but there was something about this place that just told you to 'leave it be'.

You are shaken out of your trance when the woman started speaking again.

"Of course I'll take you." She slurs before walking unsteadily towards the other end of the corridor, hopefully leading you to your rooms.

Soon, she came to a stop in front of your rooms. they were slightly separate to the rest of the hotel and were almost like subsections to the largest room at the end of the corridor; room 64.

You turned around to thank the druggie and maybe even get her name but she had vanished.

"This place is really strange." Misty says, unlocking her room.

"Tell me about it!" You add before entering your room and slamming the door behind you.

And locking it.
