The Portal


One long and never forgotten day I thought, could this day get any worse? As I finish that very sentence, the window opens and a little sunlight shines on a doorknob. So as I’m now opening the door, I hear a scream coming from this mysterious portal. I quickly shut the door and ran up to my bedroom. Now all I am thinking about is the horrendous scream coming from that portal looking thing. 
As I’m falling asleep, I remember that the doctor said if I get scared anytime before bedtime, I will sleepwalk to the thing that scares me. I’m trying to stay awake, but my body forced me to close my eyes. Then about 8 to 10 hours later I wake up and I’m in a different place. The leader of this place told me that he was thankful that I closed that door. And I was thinking to myself, where did that scream come from? The leader told me that everytime the door opens a new time, everybody turns into a devil. But since I opened the door, it is nice and peaceful here. So now every time I am having a bad day, I know to open and close the door once before I go into the portal, so it’s a nice place.
