"Hello?" I woke up...I looked around me...where am I? I stood up and walked around to somewhat see where I am..no clue. My leg hurts, I think I fell? I don't know, all I know is I couldn't stand still, I kept limping... I fell to the ground. I picked myself back up quickly. I held on to a pole...I heard a noise... I turned to where the noise came from and saw a shadow "W-who's there?" I said as I was shaking in fear, it moved back...it was also shaking. "I'm...I'm, not going to hurt you, I don't even think I can" I said as I was limping closer, hoping it was just a small animal. The shadow grew bigger and bigger, I stepped back. The shadow had a knife, it charged at me.

"Miss! Are you okay?" I opened my eyes, there was a boy holding on to me. "W-Who are you? Where am I?" I asked I was out of breath. The boy looked around, "I'm not sure where we are, I just woke up too, then saw you lying there beside me, I thought you were dead but I wasn't sure, so I tried to wake you up..looks like that nightmare woke you up before I did." The boy joked. I wasn't smiling, he let go of me..."What's your name? I'm Nick" Nick said helping me up. I looked at him, I didn't know if he was actually friendly, I was...scared of him. Nick looked at me. "Look miss, I know you're scared, I'm scared too, I'm also just as confused as you are, but you need to trust me, I might be your only friend here, I promise I'll do my best to protect you." He smiled gently. "Ashlie...." I stuttered. "Huh?" Nick said. "That's my name, Ashlie..." I said. "It's nice to meet you Ashlie." Nick said. "Hey, we need to find a way out of here." Nick said. "But how?" I wondered if there even was a way out. Nick looked up. "Hey, you see that vent up there?" Nick pointed. I looked up. "Uh, yes" I squinted my eyes to see the vent is open. Nick grabbed my hand, he helped me get on a desk that was leading up to that vent. "All we need to do is to climb these giant books." I looked at the books Nick was referring to. "They're huge!" I said, I never saw books these big...actually, everything here is big. The desks, the shelves, the pipes, everything!! I started to sweat... "Nick, uh, I don't think it's even safe for us to be here, I think there are giant people that live here." I said as I was jumping on to the books as Nick was guiding me. "No kidding, they don't seem to be here at the moment, they might be somewhere else." Nick added. We climbed the last book and made it to the vent. We walked through...

We made it out of the vents and got to a gigantic kitchen. "Woah, what the hell is this place?" I stuttered. We looked around. I was looking at the pots and pans, then turned back to Nick...Nick? Nick was staring something down, his jaw dropped and his eyes widen. "Nick?" Nick quickly puts his hands over my mouth. "mMGH!" I mumbled. "Shhhhh" Nick shushed, he pointed in a direction I haven't checked yet. It was....a giant chef? Clown? Jester? I squealed. The jester quickly glanced to the direction I squealed. Nick quickly grabbed me behind a table where the jester couldn't see us. I was whimpering as nicks hands were still latched over my mouth. The jester turned back around, he was putting a top on a jar. I looked to see what was inside the jar...is that a gnome?? I pushed Nick away. "Nick" I whispered. "I think there's a kid in that jar, we need to get him out" I continued. Nick gasped. "No way!" He whispered. "We will get ourselves killed! It's suicide!" He added. "We need all the help we can get, c'mon" I begged. Nick grumped, "fine, we will do it, I'll distract him, you get the kid out of the jar" he said. I looked at the jester, he was tapping the jar, the kid was frighten, poor thing.. The jester then walked away and started chopping some meat. We both walked towards the shelf he put the jar on. The kid looked at us. He panicked and pointed. "What is he trying to do?" Nick asked. "He's pointing somewhere." I replied. The kid breathed on the jar creating a fog for him to write on. He wrote, "behind you"
