        It was quiet. Teddy would talk to me every so often but only when he was awake. Being cramped up in a place like this has caused him to feel more tired. Its been a while since father left. I've grown taller in heighth, but I was still pretty thin, My eight year old cloths barely fit to the point that I forced myself to look through My parents boxs and found some of My father's cloths and a few of My mothers. I shook my head with a sigh as I put on my mother's undergarments as well as an undershirt and then put her jeans on with My father's shirt and sweater on.
         My hair was getting a little longer. And I smelled like dust. It was colder down here since the walls were made of stone. I sat on the bed starring at the wall I've been drawing on with a marker I found under the shelf. I was listening to teddy talk while I drew, until I heard something. I jerked my head up at the stairs. I moved so fast up the stairs I felt like I flew. I looked through the hole in the door, and opened my mouth in shock as I see a person walk through the front door. I watch as they move about the house looking around. I notice the person stop in the hallway and look around curiously.
         My tears blind my sight as a hit the door hard, with big surprise he jumped back slightly, then looked my way. I cover my mouth as I tap the door three times, trying to tell them that I'm real. They walked closer enough for the light in the other room to illuminate their face, it was a boy, possibly close to my age, I froze for a moment as he pulled out a thing similar to what my father had used, and I gasp as I see him mouth something, but I couldn't hear him, but what ever it was it didn't help, cause after he finished he kept trying But nothing was working. Then he tried kicking the door down but it wouldn't budge not even a little bit. I sighed as I knew there was no use.
        I then got an idea and ran down stairs and grab my spiral and a pincel. I ran back up and quickly srcibled something on the paper. I wasn't very good at writing but I was decent for the knowledge I already had.
        I took a deep breath as I pushed it under the door to see if it worked, I looked through the whole to see him frozen for a moment starring at it, I could understand that. He picked it up and looked at it for a moment before picking up his head and looking at the door. All I had written was Help.
      I decided to write a nother just in case.
'I'm alive. Please help me. I'm trapped in here.' I slid it under the door again. And watched as he picked it up read it and wrote on the back.

' who are you? '
I grabbed a nother piece of paper and wrote

' My name is Avianna. ' we continued
' How old are you? '

'13'

'How did you get trapped down there?"

'My Step father locked me down here.'

He looked around confused, then wrote again

'How long have you been down there?'

I swallowed hard

'5 years so far'

'What's wrong with the door?'

' I don't know what he did to it. He used a wand. I'm said to be of magical decent also but, I don't know who my parents are...but my mother is dead, that I know for sure.'

'I'm sorry. And that means he used a spell I just have to figure out which one...until then we will have to write. I'll come by as much as possible. I have school, and my parents don't pay enough attention to me to even care why I'm gone, unti-...nevermind but I'll have to go soon,'

'Okay..how old are you?'

'14'

'You said you go to school? Is it fun?,'

'I wouldn't say fun, I don't have many friends well, I have one friend, Lily,'

'She sounds nice, I bet she's a great friend, I have a friend too, his name is Teddy, he is my green Bear he can talk,'
