I couldn't move. I was shook to my cores. I couldn't believe the temple was real. The door was opened widely. I looked inside the temple but saw nothing but darkness. I only heard the voice. It came from the temple. A beautiful, soft sounding voice. I tried to move but I couldn't. Something took over my body and I wasn't able to move an inch. That was the moment when it hit me. I didn't cover up my ears. It was too late. He had taken over my body. They warned me, but I didn't listen to them. It was way too late. I was under his spell and I knew I had no chance to break out of it. All of a sudden I started to move towards the entrance of the temple. My legs were moving on their own. I absolutely had no control over them nor I had control over my body. I was completely entranced. As I was moving I heard my friends screaming after me. I couldn't answer them or even turn my head around. They screamed after me and started to run towards me but they were too slow. I already was in the temple and the door slammed behind me, on it's own. I heard how they were trying to open the door but without success. They were screaming, banging and kicking the door but they couldn't open it. The door was closed and there was no way out.
The hallway was dark. It looked very old. There was a stairway in the middle of the hallway and on the right side was a big entrance to the hall of the whole temple. I was shook. I couldn't believe what I saw. My legs started moving towards the entrance. The hall was gigantic. It looked like it was the ball room of a royal family. It looked like a hall of a castle. A scary castle. In the middle of the hall was a creature standing with a huge black cape. It's back was facing me, so I couldn't see it's face. I figured out it was the Maestro they were talking about.

"I was expecting you" He said, not turning around. His voice was surprisingly soft but I knew there was more behind that soft voice.

"Expecting me?" I asked confused.

"I knew you'll come here. I saw that and now you're here in this beautiful house, visiting me." He answered.

"But how-" He cut me off.

"Don't ask me how I saw that. I see everything..." He paused.

"Will you be staying with me?" He asked me.

"I-I don't think so. I think I should leave, my parents must be worried" I turned around and started walking towards the door but as soon as I stepped closer to it, it slammed in front of me. I tried to open it but I couldn't. I couldn't open the goddamn door. It was over. I was trapped and I couldn't get out of there.

"Do you think I will let you go like that?" I heard him asking. I slowly turned around and saw his face covered with a mask. It looked very creepy. He was completely in black. His look frightened me a lot.

"Let me go!" I demanded, pulling at the door and panicked. He didn't answer.

"I SAID LET ME GO!!" I pulled even harder and panicked even more. He still didn't answer. He was watching me how I desperately wanted to break out but failed miserably.
I gave up on trying to open the door. I had no chance. I was trapped. Forever.

"You silly little girl" He laughed. He started moving towards me.

"You can't flee anymore. You are here with me now. Forever." I turned around and looked at him.

"No, no, no. Please no! Let me go!" I fell onto my knees and started crying.

"Please. I beg you. Let me go." He came closer to me until he was standing in front of me. I looked up at him. He was a lot taller than me and that frightened me.

"No." The moved his hand and I immediately got up. He moved my body. He had the control.

"You are under my spell, you silly little girl. You can't escape from me."
