As I recognized the three elder, one of them were uncle Charlie and next to him was his wife. Sitting beside them with mouth hanging open was uncle Jake. 

They all stared at me in disbelief and horror like I was a ghost that just came out of a story. There was an awkward silence in the living room until Lila decided to speak. 

"What happened to you Sky?" She asked. 

I don't even know Lila... 

I wanted to say that but how can I? That will only make them blame me for running away and leaving my siblings. 

"How can you disappeared for two weeks and not inform to anyone about your whereabouts?! Do you even realize how worried everyone was Sky? There was no trace of you for two whole weeks. Now the city has posters of you all around. Everyone is trying to find you. Then you suddenly appear in your room again overnight with scars all over your face and you are not even going to tell us what happened to you!" My uncle started yelling. 

At this point I was really upset. 

"Would you believe me if I said I was hypnotised and was forced to walk into a creepy house? Would you consider that I am being honest if I tell you I was locked up in a room and chained to a metal bed? Would you trust me if I told you that I was paralyzed until I woke up last night with no chains on me?! No, right? I know none of you would." I stopped when tears started flowing down my face uncontrollably but I continued."I was fighting for my life if there with no way to get help... I was all alone. I thought that no one would remember me. Even if it was two week in reality for me it felt like two or three days. I was unconscious for a long time." 

By the time I finished everyone was staring at me with pity and guilt in there eyes. However, there was something that assured me that none of them believed me. They all started at me like I have finally lost my mind. 

I felt frustrated. 

What was I going to do to prove that I was right? What was I supposed to do for them to be convinced that I was not making up a story? Was it all true in the first place? How was I going to find that out? 

Suddenly, an idea popped up in my head. I could take them to the house. I am sure that the chains and smell of alchohol would still be present there. 

I quickly told them that I want to take them somewhere. They were a bit confused as I told them to go with me out of nowhere. However, they still agreed and got ready. 

After walking for a while we arrived at the place where the house was located. As we all walked into the house my heart stopped beating. I was frozen on the spot. ---
