I then heard this consistent beeping noise; I opened my eyes as quickly as a bullet and got up from my seat. It’s the final station, I’m home I thought to myself. The doors slide smoothly across the side of the long train. As the sunshine slowly disappears an elongated path stood in front of me. I was certain that I got on the right train; it was going the correct direction. The long cabalistic path continues all the way into the distance but discrete into two about halfway down. One of the alleys was created of clear crystalline; it was breathing an extremely cold breeze towards me while the other alley was made of slimy oozy snot with wet, unpleasant malodorous odour. It was surely disgusting. The cryptic path gave me a spooky atmosphere as it was surrounded by tiny dwarfs all eyes looking and glaring straight into my eyesight. It’s like they are trying to get something into me.
Whilst I stroll through the path I have decided to explore, I come across an unknown key. It has a distinctive appearance; it seem ancient and yet very smooth and shiny because by the looks of it, it is made of pure silver. It also includes something engraved on it. I cannot read it since the letters on it is fading away plus it looks like the letters are in a different language so I won’t really be able to understand it even though I would be able to see what is written. I have doubts of whether to take it and carry the burden it might have bestowed on me, or just ignore the item leaving it lying still on the cool ice ground and miss the treasure that awaits it.
As I continue on my journey I found something very bright and colourful in the distance. I felt very excited and ran towards it as fast as I can. It was a body of water; glowing and glistening like a rainbow. The animals and fishes in the water are all biased dull black which makes them look like that they are all dead. Moreover the earth animals all possess fins plus gills and wade around the water while on the other hand the aquatic animals all possess legs and are about in the terrestrial. The water also gives out hot steam like a volcano but when I actually put my hand into it; it’s freezing cold. I manage to balance myself and walked slowly through the water, it was like I was walking in the air. Not once was I out of balance nor fall into the water. The experience was kind of fun, but I didn’t like at as it just made me feel really depressed all of a sudden. I’m not quite sure myself why. I just happened to be gloomy and lonely.
Therefore I carried on with my travelling; the next thing the pops in front of me is a tree. However, it wasn’t just any ordinary tree. It’s a tall giant tree, probably about 100ft high. It has ornate heart shape leaves and different shades of blue flowers all blooming beautifully. Judging by the colour of the tree, it seems very healthy and young. Suddenly wings started growing behind my back. I’m obviously shocked, but when I was about to fly someone spoke, “Hang on there, where do you think you’re going?” the person whispered. I turned around and was even more shocked of what I saw. The tree appeared to have a face marked on and is talking to me at this very moment. I didn’t reply instead I screamed at the top of my voice and just escaped. Although I was shocked and scared I felt very relaxed and glad being by the tree and now I’m flying I started feeling lost and scared again.
Looking down following the path, I continued with my journey. I then saw a group of strangers. I went down carefully and the wings slowly disappear like ash being blown away. There stand a group of weird looking cowboys as I would describe them. I called them weird because they have the cowboy hat, the boots and the clothing a normal cowboy would wear but they have a very disturbing big mouths that saliva are slowly dripping down and their skin are scales, all shiny. All of a sudden something was poking me below. I looked down and there was this midget standing looking up towards me. He shouted some words to the cowboys in front of me; I couldn’t understand a word he said. The men then act on the orders they were given. I just wonder why these men would follow what the tiny person just told them. It seemed that this small person is their leader or their captain. I don’t like it being close to these strangers. I have an uncomfortable feeling and weird atmosphere seeing these abnormal cowboys and the midget.
So I ran away from them making myself more comfortable but still feeling worried and scared. My journey then leads me into a boot house. It stood hidden from the dark misty path, shaded protectively by the surrounding cryptic trees; an uncomfortable and eerie stillness around the house. Ivy climbed the high leather walls, making it difficult to see what colour the leather underneath had originally been. The windows peered inquisitively out of the ivy at those who dare approach the house, while the creaky antique door was always open in a deceptively welcoming smile. The enormous isolated boot was cold and empty. It smelt of wet cement and rotting apples when you walked in and little squares of sunlight fell straight through its tiny windows. It offered no sound apart from the strangely wistful sigh of the wind in the chimney. The house gives me the uneasy feeling as if somebody else had stepped on my footsteps.
I can see the shoelace of the boot inside the house. But the problem is that the shoelace is too high for me to grab on, so I explored the house looking for something I can stand on. I struggled searching for an item, however I eventually hot hold of the lace and started pulling myself up the lace; climbing up. When I reached the top I saw the garden. It was unusual having a garden in the house and having it upstairs. The garden was packed. It was filled with broken robots, all wires tangling everywhere and baby dolls. I got so scared that I was spinning round and round. The whole garden was covered; I couldn’t see a tiny space with out a part of a robot a baby doll. All I can hear is the baby dolls all crying and moaning all at the same time. It was so creepy and scary. It’s like they are haunting you down. Abruptly I felt futuristic, young, very scared and worried. I cannot wait till I find the door way out.
I searched endlessly for the door. Finally after about an hour or so I found it. I pulled myself out of that crazy garden and found myself standing in front of a wall. It was as thick as a brick and is created out of a dragon’s skin. It was scaly and pointy. One touch with your finger and you’ll definitely hurt yourself. I also cannot climb over it as it’s very sharp and by the time I’ll reach the top, my body will be covered with cuts and I’ll probably die due to loose of blood. So I’d rather not try. I feel like that the other side of this wall is my home. My freedom out of these crazy planet, town or diversion. Wherever I am. I wanna get out of this place. All of a sudden a light bright shone straight into my eyes. What is it?
