Mark's P.O.V.
I got up from the bed and looked around, I mumbled some random words as I got up. Trying to wake up. I looked at the clock, it wasn't even night yet... It was like... 2 o'clock. I shrugged and decided to tour around the place...

I looked around... The restroom, the living room, the kitchen, the gaming room, the basement, the attic, and the storage room. I smiled, it was nice. That was when I noticed the BACK DOOR. I walked towards the door and held onto the knob, I slowly twisted it and the opened it. I looked at it was a rocky pathway. Leading into a forest at the back of the house. I got curious and decided to follow the pathway.

I kept on walking and walking, then I saw a sign, telling me to go right. I followed and saw another sign. I followed and finally was at my destination, my jaw dropped as I looked at the beauty of what I was seeing. From here, I could see the beautiful orange and pink sky, the birds flying, and also a lake that mimicked the vibration of the wind. I watched as it rippled from ripple to ripple. It looked beautiful, it also mimicked the beautiful reflection of everything. I walked down, walking towards the water, it looked different... Every time I stepped closer... The more I saw the difference.

It had a mystical and glittery glow to it, and it looked too... Magical.

My eyes widened in fascination as I bent down on one knee. I reached one of my hand out and touched the water, I smiled as it rippled softly to my fingers movement.

I got curious and stuck my hand inside, and there... I felt a very warm breeze. No, like... Seriously. I felt a very warm breeze blow onto my hand, I gasped and shook my hand back. It wasn't wet, it looked... Dry. “What in the holy Jesus Christ was that?” I asked myself... I got up and shrugged off the creepy vibe and walked back, I was gonna check this place out tomorrow again. Since the sun was already starting to set, I took one last glance at the river, and watched as it started shimmering like diamonds...

And just as I was about to leave, a slight breeze passed my ear, and I could've sworn that I heard a whisper.

“Help us...”

I looked back, but no one was there. I nodded, “Maybe I was just... Hallucinating.” I mean, why wouldn't I be, I was being paranoid, so if someone was paranoid they would ofcourse start hearing stuff. So... I was probably was just hallucinating.

I waved goodbye at the lake and walked back on the rocky path. I just continued walking and looked around me, it looked beautiful. I've never really got to take a look at nature since I always lived in a place where there's literally buildings everywhere and stuff, barely nature. I sighed and looked up, I finally reached my home.
I smiled and entered the back door.

I locked the door and walked into the kitchen, I silenced and thought about what to eat...

I decided and went to the fridge to seeing it was there, I smiled. It was... Then I looked in the corner and saw something that I did not like...

It...

wAs...

KETCHUP.

My face scrunched up in disgust, I immediently grabbed the chips on the side and closed the fridge.

2 hours later...

I felt my eyes start feeling heavy as I grabbed the remote. I turned the TV off and immediently fell to sleep. I'm gonna visit that lake tomorrow, it looked to weird to be real...

I smiled and fell to sleep...
