Once I woke up, I went to see if Augustine was still in the hall but for my surprise he wasn't there.

He might've left some point in the night. All the things he said tome last night, about the shadows made me realize that something may had happen to him when we danced. I decided to take a bath to clear out my mind.

       After I entered the water, I'm met with the hot streaming water against my body. I get to really think when I'm here. I turned off the shower and put my towel on. I just got out and found Joseph looking at the vase. Don't know why.

      "Hey Era, I just wanted to- Oh God!" Joseph said as he put his hands over his eyes. I could see a red patch on his cheeks.
"Joseph, GET OUT" I screamed. He quickly left the room and waited outside. How dare he enter my room. Didn't he hear the shower on. I quickly changed into a dark blue dress which brought my black hair out.
   When I go out of my room, I found that Joseph had left. When I got out, in a split second I saw a door rapidly close leaving a bright light be gone. I was tempted to go. But then I remembered the words Augustine told me. But then again, he did try to kill me so why not. I walked to the door. It had a floral print but did look dusty. I opened the door only to be found by a path. I stuck my head a little more but I tripped and fell in. Just as I was going to get myself up, I heard a click.
"Oh shit" I murmured to myself.
The door was locked and no one knew I was stuck in this place. What is this anyways. I walked forward and I was mesmerized by the path. It was a flower path more likely.

I know I'm an idiot for following that path but the curiosity got the best of me. My black hair is getting in the way so I decide to put in a pony tail.

I see some beautiful things when I walk. I see the petals of a blossom tree slowly falling as the birds fly pass them. I follow the fire flies to what some how looks like a house. I go more closer revealing to be a hut. It almost looks like Hagrid's hut but the only difference is that their is flowers surrounding it.

"Hello" I say to see if there's anyone suck her as I am as well. I receive no answer. I go to the hut and see that theirs animals surrounding it.

"Mooooooo" I was scared when I heard the cow's mo that I tripped on my feet and feel into a puddle of mud.

"Are you okay?" A strange voice ask. When I look up, I realize that their is a girl with red hair and green eyes lending her hand to help me up. I take her hand and stand up. I back away realizing that I'm probably in the middle of no where with a girl who lives in the middle of no where.

"Who are you?"I blurted out. My mind was still surprised about the sight viewers that I didn't know how to react to this. I think I don't know what to do anymore.

"We don't usually get visitors around here. Oh and my name is Alice. Alice Lim." She says.

"We?"Who else would be living here wherever this is. Just as she was going to respond, a boy with dark chocolate hair comes out. By the look of Alice's eyes, I could tell that she had some feeling toward him.

."What's a sight viewer doing here?" He asks with a dark voice. I could feel the tension and the cold look he was giving me.

"Wait- How do you know who I am?" I ask. Alice and the gu share lance. By that, I know that somethings going on.

"Well, we have lived here for some years and when we found the foo, we heard hem talking. At one point we were like what does that mean but over the years, we put the puzzle together and figured out everything" Alice explained. I was going to ask them something until grumpy pants whispered something to Alice ears. She nodded and he went into the hut.

"We have to go. We have a big day tomorrow so I'll guess I could see you tomorrow...." I realize she's asking for my name
 
    "Mary. And yes I would like to see you and your boyfriend." I blurt out.

Alicia blushes. "Oh no, he's like a brother to me" She says but I know she's lying.

"See you." She waves and then heads back to the hut

I wonder if there's something actually good is going on here or is there more to it.
