Opening the door at a wrong timing
#WritcoStoryPrompt1
The parcel that had arrived today, contained an old key and a list of instructions to use it. I looked around and searched the person whoever delivered it to me but there was no one. Strange. I closed the door and went upstairs to my room to look closely at the key. It was an old rusty bronze key along with a paper of instructions. I took the paper and read it for a while. It was written that instructions and rules should be followed but if they are broken then there shall be consequences.
It was also written that that this one key can open many doors leading to many places that you have never been to.
No.1 Use the key during the day up to 11pm for opening the doors.
No.2 To open a door to go to a new place you must unlock the door twice and when leaving that place you must lock the door twice.
No.3 Never use the key at 12am especially at 3am.
And then I read the rules and they sounded very serious. It said that if you don't lock the door twice but once you might let entities to enter into your world. Some are friendly but some are not. Never let anything pass through the door from that place. Do not make any contact with any entity. And there was this word warning written in red ink which said that whatever you do, do not use the key at 12 am and especially at 3am because at that time not only bad entities will enter into your world but also witches, devils or demons and such more as 3am is considered to be the witching hour or the devil's hour.
Suddenly I was getting goosebumps after reading all of this but I kept wondering who would give this type of dangerous key when they already know it's dangerous? I put away the paper and took a long chain to attach the key with it. I wore it and it was looking good.
The doorbell rang and I went downstairs to see who it was. It was Samara, my childhood best friend. "Hey girl, what's up? Came back from your Mexico. How was it?" I replied, " It was boring, there was nothing to do over there except for roaming around. That's it"
Samara noticed the key and asked about it. And then I showed her the instructions and talked about the key. After explaining, she was like surprised. "Ummm, did you check who gave it to you?" I shook my head. "Why don't we try it?" "Do you really think we will go somewhere. I don't think so" "Please, please, please!!!" After a lot of begging from her I finally gave up. We went towards a random door and stick the key into the key hole and unlocked it twice. But when we opened the door we were speechless. The room turned into a beautiful forest and it looked magical. Samara said, "Are we dreaming?" I replied, "I don't think so." We entered and saw this forest. I mean there were some glowing forests, trees were in neon colour, birds flying around and much more. But suddenly we heard a car infront of my house and I realized it was my aunt. I quickly pulled out of that place locked it twice. "What happened?!" "My aunt is here" Realization had hit her. My aunt came in and said, " Oh hey guys! Moris and Mike just came here to visit you, why don't you go say hi to them while I set up the supper for you four." All four us together went together to the backyard and talked. "So is it really true?"
Moris asked if it was true or not. Samara and I explained everything to them. "At first, I thought this was just all fantasy but now it came true, I mean so weird." " Can we try it ?" asked Mike. Samara and I looked at each other and nodded our head like crazy but we needed to wait for my aunt to leave for visiting grandma at night. Mike and Moris called their parents to tell them they were going to be late even though their parents were on a trip during this summer and my aunt was to come tomorrow morning. We were getting ready for every place to go. We went to many different places which were unbelievable like going to circus, travelling through dimensions until then when the clock stroke 12am, things were getting scarier like evil souls, monsters and worst entities. We all thought this was just normal but we didn't even realize that the time was about to become 3am. "Don't you guys wanna go home and Samara and I are going to have sleepover right now." "Don't worry Mike and I decided to have sleepover at my place, plus our parents are on a vacation trip and we are living alone for a while. Just one more door and then we'll leave. " "Fine but last door and that's final, ok?" Little did we know we were about open a door to new place but at the wrong timing.
I opened the door and saw that it was pitch black I tried to go in but my friend stopped me from going further and they said they were was something infront of me. When I turned around, I saw hideous creature with two red eyes staring at me. I was pushed by it. We all started to panic, rushed to the door to close it. We closed it and then locked it. We thought it was over but it wasn't. It started to bang on the door continuosly. I asked, "Mike did you lock the door twice?" Mike was confused at first but the he realized that he didn't . The door swang open suddenly. The figure came into the light and it wasn't a creature at all. It was a demon. Curvy horns, pointed fingernails, red bloody eyes, black skin and it was smiling with its pointed teeth. It talked in a demonic voice and it wanted our souls. I was getting confused why this was happening but I realized that it was 3am. It pushed me throught the wall grabbed my neck and raising me higher. It looked through my eyes and enjoyed my suffering while smiling as I couldn't breathe until then Samara stabbed it with a pointed object. It groaned in pain and Mike hit its head with a blunt object. It released me and I gasped for air. Moris pushed it throught the door and locked the door twice. When the door was closed, it gave off a demonic laugh and soon it faded away. We decided that we will not use this key anymore and hide it from the world where no one needs to see the other world.
