Just Alex. by Ella G (best novels to read to improve english TXT) 📕

I continued reading, and came upon a very interesting sentence...

Or note.

"Xie. Look at this." I told her, still keeping my eyes on the note.

"Mm? Oh. That's weird." She took the note from my hand, and slowly and carefully unwrapped it.

"Oh. It's a map..of our school." She looked surprised, but her mouth wasn't turned upright. Only her eyebrows were up, and her blue-brown eyes were on the paper.

"Ah. Weird. But, we are obviously strong enough to go to the bathroom...and open a wall with a key slot. Oh! Here's the key." She took the rusted, gold key and we walked to the bathroom.

I took my book, and held it tight as if it was going to run away or fly away, and we fast walked to the bathroom. Xie fished out the rusted key from her black sweater, and put the key into the slot. I held her hand tight, and a door opened. Fantasy. And I thought it was fake.

A blazing light shone, and I saw people dressed in coats that had tails behind them, and people with monocles, and women with powdered wigs. Xie was staring at the 1870 or 1840 scene, her eyes almost bulging. My mouth was an o, I could tell. I felt the old, mossy walls, and they were stone cold. I pulled my black jacket around me tighter, while Xie put her hands in her pockets, our arms still linked. 

People gave us weird looks, abviously knowing we didn't fit in. I looked at Xie, and a thought hit us.

We traveled throught time. 

Just then, when I was about to turn around, a voice boomed above, and peopel didn't even hear it!

"You are too fragile. Go back!" The voice echoed.

And just at that moment, the world went black, Xie and I collapsed on the ground, our eyes closed.

And we knew, that time was either going to change, or we'd messed around with our own lives.

The word fragile danced in my mind.

And suddenly, I stopped thinking and became totally unconscious. 

Not thinking, not doing anything.
