Chapter 9 - A Strange Man
I woke up to a strange room. I thought I was still dreaming, so I got up and looked around. I passed by a mirror and had to do a double-take. “Is that me?” I thought to myself. I was dressed in a silky silver dress. “Wow.” I thought as I continued through the room. I tested the knob, only to find it unlocked. As I stepped out, I decided that I would walk around.
Since the hallway split, I decided to stick to the right wall. That way I could easily find my way back to the room. The hallways were quite different than what I was used to. They were plain, yet seemed so foreign. It was just so strange. As I made my second turn, I heard voices approaching. I was scared what might happen, so I quickly dashed back to my room. After I closed the door, I turned around and jumped with fright.
"I see the pup escaped her cage quite easily. I'll have to fix that then." The strange man said as he smiled. "Please tell me this is a dream." I begged. He smirked at me as he stood up to stand mere inches in front of me and lowered himself in order to be at eye level with me. "I'm not sorry to say that, no, this is no dream you mere midguardian. Far from it, I must say." He smiles and chuckles as he backs away and sits on the stool if front of the vanity.
I cautiously moved to the bed and sat down on its soft plumpness. "If this isn't a dream, then how did I get here, and why?" I finally asked him. “That is for me to know, and you to find out." He said before walking out and making sure the door was locked behind him. I went up to the door and double checked it. "Yep, it's locked. Now what am I supposed to do?" I thought to myself. I heaved a sigh before falling back down on the bed. "I wonder if the guys know if I'm missing yet." I turned my head to the side and noticed a small window high up on the wall by the mirror. I pulled the chair from the vanity over and stood on it so I could see out. What I saw shocked me. It was snowing, and I don't mean those wimpy flakes. This is a full-on snow storm!
"I am definitely not in New York anymore....."
