text: We always see somethings in life and think to ourselves what it's like? To go down that area explore those places, see what life could experience you if you dared. Could be something as crazy as climbing to the top of that one mountain or exploring that one room in the house. For me, it was a dark hallway in my grandmother's room. Ever since I was young it was always there beckoning me to enter and while I was always too scared to one day I worked up the courage to do so. I never understood why it took me so long to do it but I’ll be damned if I didn't. So I marched away into the unknown hallway only to find to my horror.... A locked door. Grandma always did have an element of theatricalises I suppose. Nevertheless, the search must go forward. This is merely just an obstacle in the way of greatness and just like all obstacles, it is necessary only to sway those who don't truly desire it and so like all great explorers I gave up. Yep, no great quest no X marks the spot. And to celebrate such a success I did what all great quitters do and reward myself with a freshly baked cookie. Grabbing the stool to reach the top cupboard to get the cookie jar wasn’t an easy task either, however it was a necessary one and with time and skill, I elegantly achieved my goal with grace. But just as luck would have the front door jiggled slightly as the current residential owner attempted to enter. I was able to analyze the situation quickly and knew my only chance to remain undetected was to make a perilous leap from where I stood. I did not know if I would survive the jump but the reward far outweighed. the risk so I did what any brave man would do. I jumped. The pain shot through my leg as I collapsed onto the ground but I had no time nor energy to remain where I was so I ran. The door busted open suddenly as I turned the corner into the dark hallway I started from. I was cornered. Like a rat in a sick maze. I made the disastrous mistake of being wrong. Something I shall not do again. "Hello?" The voice called out. She was close. Her fangs vile and crimson dripped with the blood of her last victim. It was then I realized that it was either me or her except I was clouded in the fog of war. While I knew what had to be done this was no easy task. The giant loomed over the hallway peeking her head around the corner staring into me. Stealth was not an option and I can tell whatever had my grandmother had to be destroyed before it infected anything else. "There you are sweety" the creature said turning on the hallway light. An oversight on me and a genius play on its part. I was blinded and she crept forward blocking the exit. If I didn't make a stand now I may not ever hold the chance. I readied myself and prepared my stance. My research and training by Power Rangers taught me everything I knew, not sponsored. And so with one quick blow I punched in the air having the wind blow the parasite out where I easily stomped it to death saving both my grandmother and the world. "WOAH!" said the child on the swing set. "Can you teach me how to do that?" "I could but I must warn you that you can **never** tell anyone about it AND you'll have to do the initiation" I replied. "Of course anything." replied the boy. A smile grew on my face as I watched the initiation ninja robots appeared.
