It was probably just from hitting my head, or blood loss. I looked around and realized i wasn't just underground. Granted that i was surrounded by roots of trees and dirt, I was also in the middle of a circle of doors. Huge doors with a glowing purple-ish/pink-ish light coming from under them.

I still couldn't stand, or so the doors seemed useless for now. But then I turned to see a first aid kit. It wasn't there before right? I grabbed it and found everything you would normally find in a first aid, but something else was in it.  There was a small cake that had the words 'eat me' written on it with frosting. there was also a small bottle with a tag on it that said 'drink me'.

Being the some-what smart person I am, I didn't listen to the words. Plus the drink smelled like a toxic marker. No way am I drinking poison... not yet at least. 

I grabbed a bandage and wrapped one around my head first. Then i began to wrap it around anywhere else I had been bleeding from (2-5 scratches on my arms from the roots, and 3-6 on one of my legs from the roots as well). I once again attempted to stand, this time making it a few steps before falling again. Well, at least i was able to reach the wall now, it was much but it was a start.

I stayed there for a few moments, trying to clear my head and think of what my next move should be. Of course another thing i remember is a three step plan on solving a problem like this, BeCaUsE ThAt mAkEs sEnSe!

Then I saw what looked like a ordinary branch (or twig?) laying on the ground right next to me.

"Am I just completely oblivious to things around me?" I asked myself as I picked it up. It was the perfect size, and it was sturdy enough to use as a crutch.

Using the 'crutch' i had found, I walked over to a door. It was locked, and the next door, and the door after that, all locked. I had tried every door except for one.

"I swear if this one doesn't work then I will-" I froze as I saw a key fall from who knows where right in front off me. I picked it up, I looked up but all i saw was the dirt and root ceiling above me. "I'm going insane"

With the key that had MaGiCaLlY fallen from what I can only guess is an abyss of some sort I unlock the last door I went to. It opened to show what looked like a purple/pink-ish portal.

"well, where ever this takes me, it has to be better than here" I said, not knowing how wrong I was.

I walked through the portal, hoping that on the other side there was something somewhat good. Maybe something to remind me of who I am, or someone who knew me.

I know it seems impossible for any of that to happen, but sometimes believing in the impossible is exactly what we need to make it possible.

When I got to the other end of the portal, I could only see black. As things started to brighten up I saw what looked like a 3 year old version of me sitting on the floor playing with dolls. sitting in a rocking chair was tall woman with dark blonde hair, and she was wearing a long light blue dress. Next to the little girl was 6 boys, all of them looked older than her.

the boys were running around the room, some of them leaving the room, some coming back in. BANG. Thunder rumbled outside as a bright light flashed at the window. The thunder scared the little girl while the boys seemed to not care.

 

"no need to be afraid, my little angel" the woman said calmly to the little girl. The boys ran out of the room, leaving the woman and the little girl alone. 

"why aren't they scared of the noise?" the little girl asked, hugging her doll

"because they know that we will protect them" the woman answered 

"how?" the girl asked

"with our power" the woman said "do you remember the story I told you when you couldn't sleep"

"kind of" the girl answered 

"once a long time ago" the woman began "there were two sisters. A sister of night, and a sister of day"

the little girl was listening intently at the story.

"despite the differences, the sisters were best friends. Always helping eachother, and making sure that the other wasn't feeling left out or sad" the woman continued "but one day, the sisters found a letter in their parents room. it said 'only one can rule the kingdom, one of the princesses must bow to the other'. the sisters knew it was about them, and after time they grew apart. started competing, and sometimes one of them would get hurt."

"what happened next?" the little girl asked

"well, the king and queen knew that the day would come that one of the sisters would have to take the thrown." the women said "one night the sister of day was listening to the king and queen talk about it, she knew that all of this would destroy the sisters love. So the sister of day ran away, stole a boat and never looked back"

"She left everything behind?!" the little girl asked in disbelief.

"yes, she did" said the woman "One day she came to a shore though. Things were strange there, but she believed that there was still something good there. She only ever used her magic for good, to help people. And as the years past and the sister grew older she had children of her own. She had six sons, and one beautiful, but powerful daughter"

"I'll try" the little girl and I said at the same time.

I jolted await.
