It seems like an hour of us being cautions walking in the forest to this safe place Ki speaks about, I wonder if its the house Kevin lived in that Zannie was brought to

We reach an abandoned home deep into the forest, Ki has to forcefully open the door to get it open and when the door flies open dust goes  everywhere

I cough a little as we go inside, Ki shutting the door behind us struggling for a moment and it seems that the dust doesn't bother him because he seems too focus on something

He looks at me "please sit"

"I rather stand"

"Aleks please sit"

I shake my head "I'm fine with standing thank you"

"Very well" Ki sits down in an old living room chair crossing his fingers together

"Fairy tale land has never been a safe place for humans, we bring them here so we can make them happy and feed off their happiness that's why my father is ill  because Zannie was the first ever to escape fairytale land" he looks at me making sure I'm listening and understanding what he had so far said to me "we then in slave them to work for us until they are dead, we make it seem that this world is all anybody has ever wanted then we destroy it by setting this challenge up when they want to go home'

I shake my head crossing my arms leaning on the wall

"I don't know why its this way that's all I ever known, I never really enjoyed this way of living that's why I helped Zannie escape from here"

I look at him "this has to stop"

"There's no way for it to my father is too powerful he has the whole land with him"

"He can't do this!"

" but he is and he will continue doing it forever so fairytale land can stay alive well himself " he sighs looking down "ever since my mother died he's been evil she was the only good in his life and he blames the humans for her death"

"Why does he blame the humans?"
I ask cautiously

" because the first ever girl to arrive here mother was not so great and an accident had happened to the little girl killing her and mother had died for years we lied how she died an what happened to the little girl and ever since father blamed the humans well the girls and he convinced everyone to hate the humans and that's how the plan worked out because there was no way humans could escape from fairytale land"

I straighten up shaking my head more "that's horrible"

"Indeed it is but that's the way it will always be"

"Not if we stop it"

"We?"

" yes we! We can stop your father from doing this he isn't that well anyways we could do it Ki" I put my hands on his arms smiling

He backs away "no it's too dangerous we need to come up with a plan to get you out of this place"

"Im not going anywhere if more people are going to be in danger"

He looks at me surprise expression on his face like he's shocked for some reason

"Why are you looking at me like that?" I ask after a little bit of him not saying anything

"You're kind" he says "not like the others"

"I thought I'd find you here"

We both turn our heads at the anonymous voice I step back until I'm beside Ki, and in the door way is a figure of someone
