CastlesA Chapter by Little Lotus
I was stuck in a dark place, with a bunch of teenage boys. But it was friendly, and they were young. You know, like fourteen or so. And the dark place was like... it was like a small piece of land, out in the middle of the ether, floating out there on nothing. We weren't really worried, even though we'd been separated from our parents. We knew they'd come and get us. The path ran around in a circle, and it was a little like the Quarry in Modern Warefare 2. But night, all the time.
There was one boy there, who was Filipino, who I think had a crush on me. At any rate, our parents do get us and I think the land we're in can be reached on this floating piece of land, that's much smaller, and feels kind of round even though it isn't. It teleports you there. My parents and I are in the car. My mother's driving, I'm shotgun, and my father is in the back. I'm very accusatory of my father. I'm trying to tell him some of the problems mother and I have noticed, that he hasn't. But he won't listen, not at all, saying we can't know the facets of himself. But then I say, isn't it true that somethings are revealed to us by others? That sometimes it takes an outsider's opinion? I'm very mean though, I'm a little horrible. He doesn't get angry at all, he's just calm. Then the car starts to go through this path, and it's amazing. It's bits of castle that are part rock, warped in beautiful ways. They're twisted and amazing. There are towers with windows that jut out in odd ways, and it's like in a way they're almost natural. I ask if we can get out and take pictures, and I approach one and I realize they're statue, made of multi colored stuff. We walk back the way we came a little, and to the sides are huge pools. Lakes, almost. To the right there's an underground waterfall, and to the left there's a flat lake with people swimming. There's a man and his son.
