The old house was an errie, odd place, that no one remembered who lived there and nobody remembered when it had been built...
There were no records of its existence or who had built it, it just seemed to have always been there. It was a small house, without a porch and had a faded gray door...The windows were boarded up, and the roof was caved in on one side, however, despite all of this neglect, the house
still seemed liveable...
Almost as if someone had just left for a brief moment and would return any minute now to bring it back to life...It stood on the corner of two streets that met at an angle; one of them was called Memory Lane and the other had no name at all-it simply ended at the old house...
The only possible way you could tell that they were connected was by looking down at your feet...100Please respect copyright.PENANA1R5PJmqgg9
If you were out in the town walking down this other street, after about ten steps your body would stop, suddenly switching direction and follow 100Please respect copyright.PENANAHlweeKlRmD
Memory Lane instead...100Please respect copyright.PENANAfxBdwxnQfH
People who lived here knew not to go near the old house because things happened when they did. Like getting lost in time, having memories woven into their clothing while they slept at night...
It was an old house, but it wasn't just any old house. It had been built long ago, in the time when people still used to travel by horseback and carts....It was a time where people would walk strolling around the neighborhood and enjoy each other's company. The house was well-made and sturdy enough to last for generations...
Okay, It didn't have any fancy, expensive, classical features or French decorations, but it was a nice place where families could be together and share their lives with each other.100Please respect copyright.PENANAXvaG4xIC0O
But then something happened: the world had changed, people stopped traveling on horseback and carts...They started using cars instead, which led to more traffic jams and lesser interaction with or between neighbors...
As time went on, the house fell into stark disrepair as no one used it anymore.100Please respect copyright.PENANAU1S2KLSpLq
(Except for some homeless people who used it as shelter)100Please respect copyright.PENANAkuO3Nikq4k
Its walls were weak, crumbling down, paint was peeling off of the woodwork. As I ventured through the old town, an eerie sensation crept up my spine. Abruptly, this presence sent shivers down my spine, as if warning me of the malevolent force that lurked within its decaying walls...
Despite my fears and stark apprehension, I still couldn't resist the urge to explore the haunted abode, as I drew near, a deep sense of forboding, dread, consumed me. For I somehow knew that something cold, sinister awaited me inside.
Swoosh!100Please respect copyright.PENANA6uwED38PrN
Suddenly, I was taken, soaring through time and space and it was then that I realized the old house was actually a 100Please respect copyright.PENANAlxzjYEoBd7
Time Portal!100Please respect copyright.PENANAj4FzADzlm8
I didn't know or was aware at first, it was only after I'd grown used to my new life that I realized what had happened: I had somehow been swiftly teleported and traveled forward in distant time. I had wandered into that old house, and when I emerged, everything was completely new and different...
My parents were now strangers; my friends had turned into harsh enemies; even the dog who once loved me, now barked at me with a viciousness that my god, would have been unimaginable before!100Please respect copyright.PENANAh39TaT57CE
My whole world had changed-and it didn't take long for me to realize why...100Please respect copyright.PENANAKN0JTxRMFe
The house had been a secret portal between two worlds and when I went through, I was somehow transported into a parallel universe.
So, now?100Please respect copyright.PENANAeXum9CRIkt
Now, I'm here, stuck in this strange, new, dark, forbidden land. Where nothing makes any sense anymore. And everyone in this strange, haunting place stares at and avoids me like I am some kind or type of weird and sinister monster...
You see,100Please respect copyright.PENANACGqDQEBpdg
I'm not one of their kind!100Please respect copyright.PENANAekSXne2Khe
Ugly little bodies with long, hideous, spindly arms well past their knees...And huge black oval eyes with wrinkled, leathery, translucent, grey colored skin and
Three100Please respect copyright.PENANAds0RE4c2wr
Toed feet...100Please respect copyright.PENANAOKyJnISwRX
My God!100Please respect copyright.PENANA5aDxfU2zEJ
Please, somebody help me!100Please respect copyright.PENANAnXvH9YlTz9
.........
I tried to run, to escape from this nightmare, but it was too late. They had seen me, and they were coming for me. They moved fast, faster than any human could. Leaping over cars and buildings, dodging obstacles with ease. While making no sound, except for a low hissing that filled the air.
They surrounded me, blocking any chance of escape. Looking at me with curiosity and malice, as if I was some kind of prey. Then reached out their long, spindly arms, trying to grab and pull me closer. 100Please respect copyright.PENANAuvuFeiZGfM
I screamed, I fought, I kicked and punched, but it was useless. They were too strong, too many. They overpowered me, and dragged me to their lair. I woke up inside a dark, smelly, damp cell, with metal bars and electrified wires. The door was locked and I thought hell couldn't be much worse!
I was terrified, I didn't know what they wanted from me, or what they were going to do to me. 100Please respect copyright.PENANA9uyhNOvYuc
I wondered if anyone would ever find me, or if I would ever see my home again. I looked around the cell, hoping to find a way out, or at least something to defend myself with. But there was nothing, absolutely nothing but a small window that showed me the outside world.
I crawled to the window, and looked out. I saw a city, a city unlike any I had ever seen before. It was dark, dirty, and crowded. There were no trees, no flowers, no birds. There were only buildings, skyscrapers that reached the sky, and streets that were filled with cars and people. 100Please respect copyright.PENANA9JxTH3lqjL
But the cars and the people were not like the ones I knew. The cars were sleek, shiny, and futuristic. They flew in the air, without any wheels or roads. They made no noise, except for a soft humming that echoed in the air. 100Please respect copyright.PENANArG0REXdZIL
The people were different too. They wore strange clothes, clothes that looked like metal and plastic. They had devices on their ears, eyes, and wrists, devices that flashed and beeped. They walked very fast, almost gliding, without looking at each other, or at anything else. They seemed busy, stressed, and unhappy. 100Please respect copyright.PENANAplHsB4HldH
They were not like the people I knew. They were not like us. I realized then that I was not only in a different world, but also in a strange different time. A time far ahead of our own. A time where everything had changed, and not for the better.
I wondered how this had happened, how I had ended up here. I remembered the old house, the time portal, the parallel universe. I wondered if there was a way back, a way to return to my own world, my own time. I hoped to God there was, because I knew I didn't belong here. I knew I had to get out of here, before it was too late.
Before they came back for me. I waited in the cell, hoping for a miracle, but none came. I heard footsteps outside, and then the door opened. They were back, the gray aliens who had captured me. They looked at me with their huge black eyes, and then one of them spoke.100Please respect copyright.PENANAqcUEiJxyee
"Come with us," it said, in a voice that sounded like a hiss. "We have things. Something to show you."100Please respect copyright.PENANAXW55x3hDkK
