The Disappearing Wall

Chapter 5

"Hey." I said, pulling Alex over near a locker.
"This is going to sound ridiculous, but has a walk in your bedroom been disappearing?"
"Ummmm, no..." he replied, voice wavering.
I sighed. "Nevermind."
"Yeahhhhhhhh..." he said, edging away until he ran to catch up with his friends laughing.

I was desperately trying to shove a binder into the bottom of my locker when something tapped me in the shoulder. I spun around, to see Alex standing there. The look in his eyes said, 'What on earth is going on'
"It's not there."
"What's not there?" I asked, confusedly.
"The wall. It's not there."
"Walk home with me."
So that's how I ended up bringing Alex Talson to my house. We sprinted up to my room, and clear as day, the wall had disappeared.
"So what d'you do?" He asked, not taking his eyes off the white backdrop.
"Follow me." I say, walking straight through, to Alex's awe. He cautiously followed.
"Whoa." He exclaimed as the city came into view.
"Prepare to meet you sister!" I chirped.
"Wait, what?" He asked, even more confused. As we approached the field I whisper-yelled, "Hey little girl! I brought your brother!"
Soon enough the child was sprinting at us, and flung her arms around Alex.
"Well, hey there!" He awkwardly sort of patted her on the head.
"You're back! Wait let me check your eyes."
She stretched up on her tip-toes to look into his eyes. Weirdly, Alex had the same eyes as me.
"Yup! It's you!" She smirked. "I missed you!"
"I remember you now!" said Alex.
I gave him a weird look. Suddenly I couldn't see and a pictured blurred into my mind. It was like a movie coming into focus. It was Alex and the girl playing around in the fields, I running with them. I looked at the girl. Leah, my mind said. I looked at Alex. Uruk.
My sight came back.
"You need to tell us what's going on.
