As I drove down the windy, foggy road I came upon, what I call now, Home. I felt a rush of cold air come over me like I was standing in front of a wave at the beach, from the top to the bottom, all at once. Something just didn't seem right, it didn't feel like "Home". Something in the window caught my eye. It looked like a women with a black dress on, her eyes were colored black around them. And she just stood there. I blinked a couple of times, but she was still there. As I got out of my car I told my daughter "Wait here, baby. I'll be right back". Then I noticed she was sleeping.

When I got to the front steps to my house I heard the chimes clinging together as the wind pushed them. I went to open the door and it was locked. "Of course", I told my self slapping my fore-head, "The key". I heard the door creak as I opened it and, of course, It was dark. I flipped the light switch and the lights turned on, Thank you Jesus.

I looked back at the car and Nadia's door was open. "Nadia?" I yelled. I ran pass the car as fast as I could into the woods. All I heard was crickets. "NADIA! WHERE ARE YOU?!?!" I kept on running till I saw her, and all she was doing is standing there staring down a well.

Her hands were on the walls of the well that was above the ground. The walls of the well were about two feet high. I walked up behind her trying not to make any noise. I looked down the well and all there was, was water. About seven feet deep.

"Nadia, why did you get out of the car?" I asked her. She replied and said "because the lady with the black dress told me to go with her to see her favorite place. So I opened the door and she held my hand and she took me here," My eyes widened as much as they could. "She was standing right next to me but she ran away because she said you were coming". All I could think of was what happened, what happened to this house and why is this happening.
