      Inside of the room was the craziest thing I had ever seen. There were needles and syringes everywhere. There were matches and snares and all sorts of things. But the strangest thing I saw was inside of another door inside of it. I saw three doors inside of the single door inside the room. I picked the middle door and entered. Inside was a path. It made a turn and there was a long hallway filled with doors. I decided to go with the second door on the left.

I came in and saw another long hallway. I tried the door behind me and it was locked. I was trapped, in a maze. Well, this couldn't get any worse, my parents are dead and I am stuck in a maze. Just then, A large fiery beast appeared out of one of the doors. It looked as if it was a troll on fire. I crouched close to it and I reached out my hand. It roared and tried to bite my hand. I pulled it away just in time but I couldn't feel my fingers.

I ran to one of the other doors, narrowly missing his club. I swung the door open and ran inside. It was an office. I ran behind a cabinet. It was all quiet except for the growling of the troll. I felt my sweatshirt heating up. It was on fire. No, it was frozen. I looked behind me and another troll was there. He was made of ice. I ran outside and narrowly missed the fire troll.

I ran into another room with the trolls following me. The room was blank. There was nothing in it. I turned around, They were right there, it was a dead end.

I was trapped. In a corner. With two giant trolls.

But don't worry, they melted away. I'm still here. I walked away from the room and realized I was in another different place. This hallway had 3 doors. Was it the exit? I went through one of the doors and approached another hallway. I messed up.

I went back through the same door and there was no hallway. Just a single door. I had no choice but to go through it. Outside of the door was hedges of grass and plants. The plants were pointy and spiky. I had never seen it. I followed the maze path until it came to a large clearing. I ran to the center of the clearing and realized it was a hill.

I stood on top of the hill and saw the whole complex. I could see many meters of maze. But there were strange green figures following me up the hill. As they got closer I realized they were trolls and other supernatural beings. But they were all of 2 things. Fire or ice. Just then I remembered an old nursery rhyme from when I was younger, that my mother sang to me.

Fire or ice.

ice or fire.

Which is hot

And which is cold

Which is new

and which is old.

you never know

when dealing with fire or ice.

I ran to the other side of the hill, ran into the bushes. Yes, it did hurt, like hell. But they seemed to not notice me. As they got closer they split up and went into the maze. I heard a strange woman's voice inside of my head, whispering, "Go to sleep, it'll be alright, just go to sleep."

After a while I must've gotten tired from waiting. I guess you could call it: falling asleep.
