The General's Granddaughter

At the foot of the stairs a figure is laying in the pool of

blood.

Smelling the pungent smell of blood, like the metal and rust. The eyes that's long been closed flung open.

She feel her body and cringe from the pain. Slowly she sit on the cold tiles of the floor. She looked around her in wonder. Left, right, and above. She saw tables, chairs and light bulbs.

Confuse, she furrowed her eyebrows and look towards the light bulb.

Fireflies?

Ignoring the pain coming from her head and body with bloody cloths on and hair, she manage to drag one of the chairs and position it under the light bulb.

Standing on the chair, she steady herself and extended her hand towards the bulb where the light is coming from.

She tap it lightly. The light sunddenly flickered, scared silly she quickly backed away causing the chair to become unsteady. She hold on to it tightly and balanced herself.

A lamp? She thought to herself.

Ding dong

She then, go down from the chair and walk to the window. She tries to stretch her neck out to peek who's on the gate but bump in the invisible wall a.k.a. the glass.

She rubbing her nose to ease the pain she narrows her eyes and looks toward the glass.

What kind for magic is this?

Ding Dong

Hearing the sound she carefully look outside and saw a man standing outside the gate holding something.

Walks towards the door and attempt to open it, sliding.

But it won't budge.

She tries again but to no avail. She carefully look towards the door and the circular object attached to it.

She press the the small button on the center of the circular object.

Click! The woman jumped away frightened. But nothing happened.

Ding Dong

She walk again towards the door and grip the door knob and push, pull then twist it.

She hears a clicking sound slowly she pull it and the door opened.

"Finally!" She shouted in glee, catching the attention of a certain someone.

"What the hell."

Then a loud thud was heard.
