 When I woke up I was in a room that I don’t think I had never seen before. The doors were bolted shut with large cast iron polls thicker than a tree (I think). the rest of the room was just a padded cell, no doors no windows, no doors, no nothing but walls and walls and walls… then I realized that I couldn’t move my arms I looked down and saw that my arms were strapped to my side, a straight jacket. as I was examining my prison the door smashed open. and a man ran in and closed the door, he was panting like he had just ran a marathon.
“Heh, stupid cops they should know better,” he mumbled under his breath “Oh hey kid, name’s Jack, you?” He said between breaths
I tried to speak but found that the words just couldn’t form, or even come out of my mouth for that matter.
“Oh! here let me help you with that…” He walked up to me and fumbled with something behind my hair “There!” he said, as he held up a metal mask that I assumed had been strapped to my face. “Now...name?”
“um... “ the words felt foreign in my mouth “I think it’s um… um… ummmm…”  I stuttered
“Whats the matter?” he asked with a laugh “You don’t know your own name?”
I just stared at him, I felt ashamed, not to mention stupid. So I made up a name that I thought sounded cool.
“I do to know my name!” I shouted at him “Its Xenia”
“Cool.  Now come on… we’re busting out.”
He grabbed my shirt and pulled me up. We ran out of the cell and down a hallway. You could tell by the walls that it was some sort of correction center. we were running down a hall that seemed like it was miles long. we took a left then we took a right then we took another left. When we reached a door we stepped through it and we walked into the winchester mystery house. It didn’t feel right, Jack suggested that we look for a way out so we set of. The house was strange,doors leading to nowhere, stairs leading to the ceiling, I didn’t like it… not one bit.
“I think I see a door that way, Xenia.” Jack said, he seemed to do most of the talking in this acquaintance.
We ran out the door and… we fell, DARN! another door to nowhere. We hit the ground with an awful thud. We stood up and we saw a tall thin figure staring at us.
“No...no...no i i it it can’t be,” I heard Jack whisper “Kid? when I say run, run. Okay”
I nodded my head but just stared.
“So Wendi! how ya doin’ bud?” Jack said at the creature
“I told you not to call me that!” the creature snarled
“Well Wendi, I guess you just have to deal with it.”
“fine, and I see you brought a snack.” he gestured to me
“You eat the kid I’ll eat you”
“I’d like to see you try” he laughed as he lunged at me
“RUN!” jack yelled
I ran but the creature seemed to just follow me wherever I went I decided to go into a cave. I lost him. I waited in that cave for a while for Jack. when he finally caught up I asked him what that thing was.
“That was a Wendigo.” he said in a you-of-all-people-should-know tone “now lets get a move on.”
We left the cave and went on a boat.
“The Mary Celeste.” Jack said
“Isn’t that the most haunted ship in the world?”
“no thats the Queen Mary”
“Oh”
all of the sudden I fainted and Jack asked, “kid, kid you ok?”
My vision went black.
