"It was a nice break while it lasted, but we have to get back to the real world so let's go." He says. We moved on. We walked until we found a door in the middle of no where. We open it and see a old lady and a glass ball. She was staring into it the ball while hovering her hands over it.

"Come children..." the old lady said. I don't understand why she is calling us children. We cautiously made our way over to the seats in front of her. We sat down.

"Do you see a way out?" I whisper to him.

"No"

"Only one of you can see your family outside of the mirror world." She says. Joanan looked at me.

"Go on" I tell him.

"But-"

"I know my family is ok"

"Thankyou"

"Hand me your hands children and close your eyes" We held hands then with our other hand held the old lady's hand. Immediately a picture came up as soon as I closed my eyes. Riley was alone in her house. She looks to be 13. She never left her house...why? The phone rang. Riley picked up.

"Hello?...yes grandma...no he has not come yet...I know grandma...by the way. Thankyou for the money, it means a lot...you can't convince me to leave this house...alright...bye grandma."

Riley walked up stairs and began doing her homework. Suddenly she just broke down in tears.

"Daddy come back..." She whispered. "Please..."

Then it ended. I looked at Joanan and he was crying. Suddenly a door appeared behind the old lady.

"Come on, let's go." I tell him. "Thankyou" I tell the lady. She nods. We walk out of the door and end up in one of those one colored rooms. This one was lavender. We sat on the bed.

"Atleast you know she is alright" I say

"Yeah..." He says. "I don't think I'll be able to sleep"

"Why not"

"We must come up with a plan to escape"

"Sounds good to me" We sat there trying to come up with ideas to stop this mess. Wait! All this time it could have been so easy! If this works we will be so happy.  "I have and idea"

"What if..."
