After the light blinded me, I open my eyes to adjust my view surrounds me and found out I'm definitely not in my bedroom anymore. But somewhere in some sort of indoor castle.

I thought maybe I transport myself somewhere in San Angel but I've never seen this place in one of the movies. I admits, I watch that movie around 10 times or more since I couldn't help myself but never in my eyes have ever recognize this place. Though the plain stone floor or the walls does look like its been century old.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                 I tried to look around as I took a walk in this some sort of hallway. I walk until I saw a view to the outside balcony that makes me want to run to see it. I ran to the balcony and stop to see, one glance is all I know the answer of where exactly where I am. The entire place is filled with sharp pointy rocks that stood in different directions. There's even a lava flowing slowly like it pictured as the river. There is no sky cause the entire surrounding like an underground caves though I saw something in the air falling like snow. When I touch one, it didn't feel like snow nor look like one. I rub it with my thumb and I realize its ash. How did the ash get here?

Then my brain had just give me the answer where exactly am I. I'm in the Land of the Forgotten! But why in the world am I in this type of places?! Maybe I should teleport back home.

I turn around to see what's that sound. I look around but nobody there.

Swoosh... flap.. flap..

I heard again but this time it's like some sort of wings have just flap itself from flying but this one sound like a huge one! I walk myself from the balcony to look for that sound. I began to feel really scared but I tried to be brave (or stupid ) to look around for my curiosity. The hallway looks creepy as I walk deeper in the darkness despite there's candle light seemed to bright dimly.

Suddenly I have an idea about the darkness. I took out my Lenovo phone to use it as a flashlight. The moment I use it, I felt comfortable until without warning the candles in the hallway had just wiped out the flame. The scarier part I don't feel any wind at all!

I felt a sudden chill in my spine not due to coldness but something crept behind me. I can even hear some rustling feather as if it tried to spread slowly and quietly. But some what fail since I can hear better than anyone I know (including my family). I carefully turn around and shone the light as my eye view. Tis I saw....... nothing.

Nothing but dark hallway from where I come from. I turn back to where I saw a few moments ago while I unconsciously start walking until I bump into something like a cold wall. I look up with my Lenovo phone flashlight and I saw something huge made of tar, but as I look higher this thing wearing some sort of armor with two huge animal skull like resting on its shoulder as a shoulder plate, in top of those shoulder plates have few candles with green fire lit not too brightly. But when I look at its head, I immediately stare at the pair of eyes except it's eyes are tiny red skull that's use as pupil. And I know who exactly this creature is........ Xibalba.

Xibalba stood tall with his wings menacingly spread wide, and his tar teeth became sharp pointy as he smile looking at me with his red skulls pupil that it's socket seems to staring at my soul. I felt frozen in fear while looking at him as he slowly bend his head forward towards my face while raising his claw like hands at me.
