Have you heard of the legends, they are the hidden things that few have seen. They are the lost light in the dark. Well the first is of the hidden room. The hidden room is a room few have seen, and those that have say its as vast as an ocean. Though few have seen it and even fewer have been in it, it's still a known legend. Well let me tell you the story of how I found the hidden room.

I woke up like I woke up on any day, to a screaming alarm. "I love waking to you" I said sarcastically to the annoying thing. I got up and walked to the bathroom which had a bit of a lock problem, the lock got stuck in the handle sometimes. Sighing I pop the lock with a knock, after 3 years of living in this house I knew what to do in this situation. I did my whole morning routine and headed to the front door. I pick up my bag with a grown "this thing weighs a ton with how heavy it is" i mutter to no one in particular. I made my way to school as per my usual method, walking, yay. I reached school and took a moment to look at the entrance. "This place is more of a prison than a school, they don't even serve decent food" I enter the school and head to the cafeteria, i have no clue why we have to go there we just do. My day was going normal, or abnormal as school can get on spirit week.

As I was walking to AP Biology class I heard a whisper-like sound. Looking up from the floor I looked around to see if anyone was talking to me, nothing. The whisper sounded again, it was coming from the direction of the gym. I shook my head and muttered the familiar fraize of "curiosity killed the cat" before I started to follow the whisper. As I follow, I begin to second guess myself 'what if it's nothing and i'm late to class for no reason, what if i get in trouble' but then i remember what if it's one of those moments that only comes once in a blue moon.

When I made it to the gym the whisper had grown to a shout, it pierced the air with a shrill cry. I opened the door and walked inside, all I saw was the normal gym. The cry called again and I walked into the girls locker room, there by the showers was an old wood door. Its hinges were black and its shape was curved, the wood looked to be oak. "Welp, when did this get here" I mused while walking to it. The moment I touched it the door flew open like it had been kicked in. "no choice but to go in" and with that comment i entered only to have my breath stolen from me. The vast volume of space that the room consisted of should not be possible. The room was a world of its own. The wonders I saw I could never describe. And that is my encounter with the secret room.
