By the time I was done calming myself over going into this creepy building Erik had already went inside. I groaned and fast walked inside. I saw him talking to a lady in her 30s. She was dressed in grey. I looked around and saw a few more people dressed in grey.

I felt out of place. Erik was in black, the people were in grey, and I... I was in my blue jeans, flipflops, and green tanktop. My dying clothes.

"Annalia Berk. Come over here" I heard the lady Erik was talking to say.

I went over there and she looked at Erik. He nodded. I was confused, she didn't say anything why did he nod?

"Come on Annalia-" Erik started saying before I cut him off.

"It's Anna." He rolled his eyes at me.

"Fine. Come on Anna we're seeing my boss now."

This time I rolled my eyes at him, yet I followed him into the elevator. He pressed a button and we went up. We kept going up for a good 3 minutes before jolting to a halt.

I got out first. I hate elevators, being in a tiny space, with people you don't know (or don't like) is just not cool.

Following Erik he led me down a few hallways before we stopped at a big silver door. He knocked on it and it opened by itself. Going into the room I found it was all silver. Like all of it. The desk, chairs, couch, pens, and anything else that would be in an office.

A guy came out of a back room.

"Erik!" He said "It's always good to see you but I have a feeling this isn't just for a cup of coffee is it?"

Erik grimaced then pointed to me.

"That's Annalia- sorry I mean Anna- Berk. She wasn't on the list."

The guy laughed. "I know. She's the special one."

I cut in before Erik could reply.

"I'm sorry. The special one?"

The guy nodded at me.

"My name is Josh. You, Anna Berk, are very special. One brother, one sister, who is your twin I might add, and your mother left alone with all 3 of you"

I was a little shocked. I was also a little angry.

"How do you know all of that?" I asked not bothering to be nice anymore.

Josh didn't hesitate to reply.

"I know, see, and hear everything that's happening on earth."

He must have saw me open my mouth to say something but he cut me off.

"Don't ask questions my dear, you have asked enough. Now it is my turn."

I gulped. I felt the air get harder to breathe. I nodded though, I didn't see much of a choice. We were in a room with no windows and the only othe person here was Erik who had been strangely quiet and wouldn't help me if something were to happen. I mean besides me dying.

"Annalia Berk." Josh paused.

"How would you like another chance at life?"
