Alone

Explenation

I was still thinking it was a dream when Pixie showed a map into my face. “What is this?” I asked looking at the map.“It is a map of Averon”, said Pixie in a matter of fact voice.“OK, so let me explain, you got here because the villain of Averon chose your family to torture, so he opened a portal so that you could get here”, said Pixie.“But why us?” asked Eva.“Well that is just a random guess”, said Pixie.

“Now that you know how you got here, I will take you to a house that was abandoned so that you can stay until the portal opens up again and to explain the map”, said Pixie.Pixie flew forward. She was tiny and her wings looked so thin and fragile as paper. After staring at her for a while everyone followed her questions in their mind, no one said anything.

It seemed they had walked for hours when she saw a small cottage about a hundred meters away. But everyone was walking slowly so I said “Mark, Eva do you want to play what is your fear?“Sure,” they said.“My biggest fear is being alone and not having support,” I said.“Mine is that a monster will kill me at night” while Eva said that they past snow dunes with the whitest snow that sparkled in the sunlight.Then Pixie said “We're here”. She opened the door to reveal a blue walled, dusty house that was covered in furniture. There was a spiral staircase with a golden rim and a beautiful colorful carpet in the entrance. It was the first time Jane saw a ceiling with stars, the color of bronze painted on the ceiling.“It is beautiful”, said my mom breaking the silence.“Yeah, it was abandoned by a family of wizards”, said Pixie .Everyone suddenly noticed the couch, a couch that was a map of Averon. It revealed all the parts of this island, and there were a lot.

“Ok so, as you can see, the couch is a map. We are here”, she pointed on the couch, “and this whole thing is Averon”, said Pixie while pointing to different parts of the map. Well, I suggest going to bed. Oh! And I will bring food for you tomorrow.And with that, Pixie fluttered out of the room leaving a blanket of silence around them.“Um…, ok kids, let us find a bedroom for you to sleep in, ok?”, said mom,“Ok”, I agreed. We all walked onto the golden rimmed staircase, and worked our way up the stairs. When they got up, they saw a whole set of doors. They looked in every single one and they chose the one with three beds in it, one for Mark, one for me and one for Eva.“Good night”, said mom and closed the door. The bedspread was bright red and gold rimmed, they all jumped into bed but couldn't sleep. I just waited and waited till I fell asleep.
