Harris Miller stared at his father-in-law while the said father-in-law, Dickson, stared back. "What was so urgent?" Harris sighed. "The door opened again." Dicksons expression held no amusement or any indications that he was lying. "It....opened..." Harris felt like his world was going to crumble again.
Just like the night when his wife...died.

Barry the butler walked into the living room and towards the two tensed men. "Ah Barry- Where's Lee?" Dickson stopped midway once he noticed his granddaughter was absent. "Did you want her to come with, Sir?" Harris and Dickson both went pale. "We need to get to that door immediately!"

It felt like I had been falling for ages and I still didn't understand how or where I was falling. I decided to open my eyes but all I could see was utter darkness. "Help!" I screamed but my voice only echoed in the darkness.

Eventually I started to see a light closing in on me as I continued to fall. I screamed covering my face when I noticed the ground I was falling towards. "IM TOO YOUNG TO DIE!! I STILL HAVEN'T DONE ANYTHING DARING!"

I landed on something soft instead of the hard ground. It was something soft and fluffy.
I opened my eyes and sat up looking around at my new surroundings. "What the..."

Surrounding me was a huge field with thick trees further on from that. What I landed on seemed to have been some sort of pillow except it was enormous. "Where...am I?" I wondered how exactly I went from my grandfathers mansion to the middle of nowhere.

I was panicking, not only had I fallen onto some giant pillow, I was staring at a pair of small black orbs. "Glob glob glob." The small green horned creature standing in front of me spoke which resulted in me letting out a horrified scream.

The creature jumped back and so did I. "WHAT THE HECK WHAT THE HECK!" I scrambled backwards to the other edge of the pillow, falling off as I did so. I landed on my butt which hurt quite a bit but that didn't faze me at that point. When I had fallen down from the abnormally large pillow, I just so happened to fall in the middle of a group of the same looking green creatures.

I shot up in an instance and backed up against the pillow. I could feel my heart was racing. I stared cautiously at the green creatures that were surrounding me, more and more of them appearing.

Dear lord what is happening?

I thought maybe I had taken some sort of drug but I didn't remember taking any of the sort.
It would have made more sense if that were the case. "W-What's happening!?" I shouted out again. The green little creatures just stared up at me before speaking absolute gibberish.

One even walked up to me and tugged at my uniform skirt. I flinched and immediately sprinted. I was too frightened to look back so I continued running until I was at least a good distance away, or at least that's what I wanted.

I stopped sprinting when I felt it was hard to breath. "I...really...need...to get...into shape." I breathed heavily as I leaned against a tree. "Haaah..." I leaned my back against the tree and slid down, covering myself with the long grass

I held in my heavy breaths when I heard the gibberish talk from the creatures. They must have followed me but I was glad they weren't as fast.

Not with those tiny legs
