At the end of the stairs I saw the same door that I was dreaming of every night. I tried to open it carefully becase it was old wood.
While I was trying to open them, someones hand was tied around my throat, trying to suffocate me.
"Get off me!" I shouted because I couldn't do anything because the grip was too strong. I started choking and hitting his hand to let me go.
"This is all your fault! Do you want EVRYONE to DIE?!" While he was saying that, he tightened his grip and I couldn't breathe anymore. He threw me on the floor and sat on top of me while choking me. I took a stone from the ground and hit him in the head with it. His head began to bleed as he lay unconscious.
I started running down the stairs as far away from the body. I don't know if there's anyone else at this island, let alone someone who wants to kill me.
I was scared. But I didn't like it home either. I just wanted to go to the real world. Humanity.
"AYLONA!" I heard shouting in the distance.
"Mom?" I saw her running along the beach to me. When she came to me she looked awful and pale.
"You need to help me." She said with difficulty.
"What help? Why are you here? And why did you try to kill me?"
"I was not trying to kill you. That wasn't even me."
"What do you mean it wasn't you? You threw me out of the window and tried to kill me by bringing me to the forest. And now you're here trying to tell me what? That you were possesed by someone and now you're here to say that you are sorry and that you love me like you always do?" I said as my mother looked me in shock.
"Of course that I love you. And I always did." She said while grabbing my cheeks. "But a soul escaped from the forest and entered my body and could control everything I did. But I couldn't do anything. I was forsed to watch all this without being able to do anything." She said as tears streamed down her face. A little later black blood started coming out of her eyes. She couldn't breathe anymore and I couldn't do anything.
She died. She died in my arms. I sat on the sand crying. I wished it was all a nightmare. But it wasn't.
Before she died she told me - "Open the doors. They can save you. Take it and put it on your head. Say - ego nunc praeesset mundum."
I knew she was talking about the door. But put what on my head? I came to the door again and tried to open it, but it was locked.
I remember now, mother had a key around her neck.
