Keep Out Part Two

The lady grabbed my hand and led me to a small table and I sat down, I then looked at the other kids and they were all running around. She then turned the light off And there was no sound. I thought I went deaf and I couldn’t see I couldn’t find the other kids That were just beside me. When I put my hands in front of my face, I sat in the floor and curled into a ball. Then above me stood a lady about twenty feet tall. When She flicked the magic button, the lights turned on The children were all there, not a one was gone. They had all been put under some kind of spell, maybe poison in the cookies or in the pie but when I looked at them none of them looked alive. Their voices were heavy with every snore the lady then said, “This is how they explore.” she handed me a pillow and And pointed to the floor. I headed towards the wall and then lunged for the door. This was my chance, it stood wide open the clock on the wall read 12:55, I knew this moment I would make it out alive. I threw the pillow on the floor and took it for a ride, the smooth floor made the Pillow slide. As I reached a few inches away from the door, my mother came around the corner and looked Into my eyes. She just shook her head and wave to the lady. “Good-bye!” I took my hand and asked me about my day. “Mommy you wouldn’t believe what goes on in that place!” She laughed and said something I didn’t understand. “ Too late now, you schooling has to begin, one day you’ll thank me and be happy you went.” I just let the talk drop I knew this day way part of her evil plot. I probably ate to much chocolate, or drank to much sprite but still this torture wasn’t right!
