INSIDE THE

DARK
TOWER
 She was stucked inside a place which was quite dark, she was alone and
teriffied. She couldn’t see anything but she could hear some horrible and strange
voices , she felt like someone is running around. Finally she was able to see with
the help of luminescence coming out of the window, she found herself standing in
a spacious hall of a huge castle which was in form of a tower with so many stairs
leading to different floors. She could still hear that horrific sound and it was getting
closer to her. The beam of the moon was not enough to see far away, but she saw
shelves on all the walls which had so many jars filled with water in different
colours. As she stepped forward to climb the stairs to go to the next floor,
something grabbed her feet with its claws and pulled her back. She fell back on the
floor of the hall, she tried to stand up and was astonished to see a monster with
multiple heads having claws and fangs standing in front of her, it almost looked like
a hydra in an abominable shape. She didn’t know what to do so she climbed the
stairs as hard as she could and somehow managed to reach on the other floor.
• This floor had many rooms with elegant doors and
wider windows, it was brighter that’s why she felt
like she got her lost vision back. She moved forward,
opened the door of a room, it was a small library full
of books. She sat there for a while trying to rule out
that what was going on and where was she and how
did she get there, she had so many questions and
no one to answer them.
• She thought that those books might have any clue
about that place. She took a book with grey cover
from the first lower row of the shelf and started to
read it and was quite puzzled to read it because that
book was written about her school life. She still
could not figure it out that how is thie happening
so, she started to read books one by one and finally
figured it out that all those books were her
memories because jo one else could know about
some memories which were mentioned in the
books. She got more perplexed that how these
memories got inside the books in this unknown
place where she has never been to before.
 While she was looking at the books she heard that hydra coming, she locked the
door and started crying because she was all alone there and didn’t know how to get
out of that place, she was feeling hopeless. She knew that hydra will get through the
door and she had to do something before that so, she started to search the room to
find something she could use, she saw a table on the side of the shelf a lantern was
placed. She took it but didn’t know how to light it up, she was feeling hopeless
again and started to think about the moments she had with her friends and family ,
for a moment she had a smile on her face and started feeling courageous when
suddenly the lantern flickered , she started to think more about her happy moments
and flame kept igniting. She took the lantern and went to the door, unlocked it and
went outside holding the lantern. She saw hydra facing th other side but something
had changed ,One of its head was missing like someone had chopped it off. No one
was there in that place except her and that monster than who could do it. The hydra
felt her presence and turned its face towards her, she felt like there is no chance
getting alive out of this place, she will get killed, and her body will rott inside this
place, the hydra was moving forward, she didn’t want to die like a coward so she
pushed away all her negative thoughts and stood up to face it.
 She was moving towards it but something weird happened, the head of the
monster fell down and burnt to ashes. Something clicked her mind and she ran
back to the room and locked herself. It started to make sense to her , that monster
was her fear, fear exists in different forms and it feeds on different emotions and
those heads of hydra were different forms of her fear , she let go of her
hopelessness when the lantern had lit up, it caused one of hydra’s head to burn
then when she was having negative thoughts in front of the hydra she pushed all
those thoughts to fight it back, the second head fell. Now she has to dig up all
those factors on which her fear feeds.

Hopelessness and negativty had already gone away, 4 more to go. She had a
problem with her confidence , she didn’t believe in herself , all she had to is to be
confident and believe that she can kill this abominable creature. The second one
was failure , third one was failure, fourth was thinking about others’ opinions that
what people are going to say, then the fear of getting ignored and the last one was
being alone.
 The only thing she had to do is to get rid of all these aggravating factors of fear.
She started doing that, one by one killing them, as she was doing this she was
feeling like she was being reborn. Now she was braver, courageous, confident than
ever before, she opened the door and there was no hydra. The moment she
realised that if she had done that before in her life than she could have achieved
some bigger goals.
She went back downstairs in the hall where she saw jars with fluid in different
colours on the shelves.
She picked one of the jars and saw inside it,these were her memories which she
didn’t even remembered she saw all those jars and all of them contained forgotten
things of her mind ,only this time she wasn’t amazed at all because lately she had
seen so much of weird stuff going around. But now she had figured it out that
where was she , she knew about this place her whole life, this huge tower castle
belonged to her, it was her possession, on one could take it from her, she was the
owner of this place but she had never explored it like before.

She was stucked inside her mind, with her fear and memories and this is the
reason that she is the only one inside it. The darkness of this castle is the darkness
of her mind which is sometimes comforting and sometimes terrifying. The beam of
the moons is her happiness and joy which are needed when the darkness fall, the
flame of the lantern was hope which can help you get through the worst
circumstances. She realised that when darkness arrives, all fears of the mind get
stronger to chase you and take out the soul out of your body. She almost fit the
pieces of this puzzle but she hadn’t figured it out yet that how to get out.
She walked around the hall to see if it had any door which could take back her to home but there
were so many doors and each of them was locked. She was turning back when she heard a
familiar voice which was so soothing, she burst into tears because it was her mother calling her.
She heard it coming from one of the doors she went to the door but it was locked, she was
crying because she really wanted to meet her family and just hug all of them as tears were rolling
down her cheeks , some of them fell one the door knob and the whole knob metal melted down
and the door opened. She opened her eyes lying on bed with an oxygen mask on her face. Her
mother sitting beside her waiting for her daughter to wake up. Sarah couldn’t speak a single
word at that time She just whispered something and caught attention of her mother.
After 3 months,

She got completely recovered from the injuries she got because of the car accident
she had on highway while she was driving back home from college. She had been
in comatose state for 1 month. Most of the people get shooked after such incidents
but she was reborn with some special qualities and fearless after returning from
the dark tower.

The end= The begining of a new life
