Strange Waters

Chapter 2 Another realm: intro - A strange room

Sandy woke up in a strange room, it was really dark but she could see the ornaments decorated across the room and lights that had colours that she couldn't explain, but she must be hallucinating from the alcohol. She thought.

She slowly rose from the bed that looks like a camp bed. Immediately she realised she wasn't on sea she had reached a shore and maybe possibly a town as she heard evhoes of children playing and screaming in joy. She ran towards the door to cry for help as she banged the door... After several bangs with no response, she felt irritated with it for the second time she turned to see what she could help herself with, then she noticed a small window up towards the edge of the room but she couldn't reach it, she dragged the bed and climbed just to get a sight of what was outside, she first noticed the sea and how calm it was, then she noticed the bunk on which she must have floated in till it reached the shore. That was most of all she could get from the window.

There was a little scruffle behind the door and then it went silent, She ran back to the door. "'Can anyone hear me?... Please open up, I need to know where I am." Sandy yelled, banging the door." 

Suddenly she felt her feet lifted up and sustained mid-air, she grasp for breath and tried to bring herself back to the ground but she lost balance and kept somersaulting mid-air, she kept floating from side to side and then suddenly she was erect and balanced and she heard a voice from the door, "Hello Young one, please remain calm." She noticed an adult lady with a staff with some kind of energy emanating from it. Slowly she was brought to the ground with just a wave of a hand. "Where am i?, Who are you?, What am I doing in this place?,..... I need an answer please." She said almost crying out of fright of her momentary experience.

"You should rest, the Emperor will send for you soon, whatever questions you may have will be attended to at the Council, but for now it appears you may have sustained an injury during your travel. Relax the witch will be with you soon."....

"Travel? , Emperor?, witch? What are you saying? Let me out of here!!!.... Where are is my mum?".... Sandra has never felt so much confusion all at the same time that she almost bursted into tears with anger but she was too scared to move. The Guard lifted her staff and struck the ground lightly and Sandra felt dizzy and lost control of her legs and the light in her eyes went off. She tripped off to the floor. But she was sustained by the same energy that lifted her and she was dropped gently to the floor unconcious. "Sleep young one, a whole new world awaits you"... The guard said softly as she left the room.
