The Other World

Chapter 7: The Biological Parents

I was standing inside a huge corridor. It was dark and quite. I shivered. I didn't recognize the place but it rubbed me the wrong way. I knew I was dreaming. I just didn't know how to wake up.

I saw two men come out. Their face were completely covered and they were gesturing with their hands a lot although I couldn't hear anything.

They passed by me without acknowledging me. They can't see me. But I can't hear them.

I woke up.

"....was too much for her"

"This was not supposed to happen."

"How did she even get the Key?"

I can hear voices around me, whispering.

I started to sit up.

"Oh she's wake. Be quite everyone."

I looked around. I was in a big room. A very big room. It was a light green color and there were shelves of books. I was sitting in a comfortable, huge bed. Next to me, there was a small dresser.

And I was surrounded by many people. There was an old man with wrinkles. He had a Z on his temple and a single streak of white hair could be seen in all that grey hair.

Stark was also there, giving me a worried look. The twins from my vision stood side by side with a look of concern and surprise. And lastly the man and the woman. Dad and mom?

"Wh-what's going on?" I asked. "And I want the truth."

"Ok. We'll tell you everything but first you need to rest." the old man said.

"I'm plenty rested, thank you. I just want the truth." I replied.

"Ok hon, Its time for dinner. Just take a nice shower and we'll explain then." promised the woman.

"Ok" I said. I wanted the truth now but I knew I wouldn't get it.

"Good." Said the old man. "Everyone. Out."

They all left, leaving me on my own. I got up and stretched. I tried not to think about anything and so tried to distract myself.

I walked to the bathroom and stopped in my track. It was HUGE! There was a shower and a jacuzzi. It was white decorated with light blue ornaments. These people are rich.

Well they are living in a palace.
I took a quick shower and walked over to the closet. I hope they have something that is my size. I opened the closet to find many, many clothes.

Whose room is this?

Well whosever it is, we have the exact same size. I put on the first pair of trousers and shirt without giving it a second glance. I put my crazy hair in a pony tail and left the room. There was a guard outside the room. I guess he was supposed to show me to the living room as this place was huge and there was a very huge possibility of me getting lost.

We took a few turns and went downstairs. We ended up in the corridor and he continued behind the stair case where there were doors. He opened one and told me to get in. He gave me a small bow and left. He had a smile on his face the whole time.

I turned around and of course the living room was also huge. There was a dinning table that was long and could sit about 30 people minimum. There was a big chandelier hanging form the ceiling right above the table. Next to this table, there were smaller ones. And one of the tables were occupied by everyone that was in my room except for Stark.
