KIOMI

Kiomi was on a raft in the ocean and she wasn't having fun. A massive boat was floating by in the water. Kiomi screamed,

“help me!” in a raspy dehydrated voice. A man looked over the side of the boat, threw her a rope and said,

“come here, catch this.”

Kiomi swam to the rope and climbed up. The man noticed a broach fall as Kiomi climbed aboard, and he picked it up. The man thought,

“I will save this for my wife” as he admired Kiomi catching her breath.

“Thank you for saving me” Kiomi said still panting.

The man smiled and helped her up.

“Let me show you where you can stay,” the man said. As he lead her inside the hull of the massive boat, Kiomi suddenly thought,

“where is my broach?” She checked herself, but realized her broach was gone.

Inside Kiomi's room she saw an antique suitcase with worn, stained fabric. When she opened the case, she found a picture of her family.

“How cold this be?” she thought. The man came in to give her a meal, so Kiomi quickly hid the picture in her pocket.

“Aren't I a prisoner?” she asked.

“Why do you say that?” the man said.

“Pirate ships don't serve meals to anyone. Why are you acting like I am royal?” The man set the meal down on a lumpy mattress in the corner.

“You are royalty my lady, and we are not pirates.”

Later in her room, Kiomi found a lock and key on the floor by the suitcase. When she picked up the lock and fit the key in the keyhole, a door suddenly appeared in front of her. Kiomi took the key from the lock, fit it in the keyhole in the door and turned it. The door, although glistening with transparency, was solid against her touch as she turned the doorknob.

Inside the door, Kiomi saw a rushing waterfall suddenly before her. The water flow split in the middle and spills over to the left and right sides into a lake. Behind the lake is a massive stone castle draped in vines. On top there is a red heart with a stone-filled arch below.

“I wonder what's inside that castle,” Kiomi said. She sees a small canoe on the lake shore and climbs in. Kiomi paddles to the castle. When she walks in she sees a big monster. The monster looked red with green eyes and pointy teeth one tail 8 feet 4 arms it comes up to her and attacks her .the monster takes her to a room inside the castle.

in the room there was a big black mirror that reflected Kiomi she stepped into the mirror and it brought her back to the lake front she jumped in the canoe and tried to paddle to the door she opened, but as she was paddling she heard the monster chasing her. His splashing came closer and closer. She reaches the shore and runs to the door when she closes the door behind her. She hears the monster thumping she removes the key and puts it back in the lock on the floor the door disappears. Just in time the man walks in.

“how are you doing?”

“Im doing well, thank you very much” said Kiomi. The man said,

“come with me,” he brings her into a dark room with an ostrich-sized egg in the center of the room.

By it there was a chest
