Chapter 4 - am I going crazy?

I feel a cold chill as I slowly open my eyes, still half asleep I look around the room and realize that I wasn’t dreaming. I'm frozen as I turn to face the door and realize that the door is open.

 How the hell is that door open? It was locked yesterday and it wouldn’t budge. I feel a strong gust of wind hit my face along with a few bits of dirt coming from outside. Coughing I stand up.

 The wind is blowing harder than it was yesterday. I walk up to the door and try to peak outside but all I see is trees and soft brown dirt everywhere and the wind isn’t helping.

 It kind of feels like a dust storm.

 I look around a bit more but I can’t really make out anything and dirt keeps getting in my eyes. I Caugh again and look up towards the sky and see what looks like a tall building in the distance. I can't really tell what it looks like from here but maybe I can find someone who’s willing to help me. 

    I don’t see any people around and that kind of makes me feel uneasy. It’s also starting to get dark outside already. So I must have fallen asleep earlier than I had thought. 

I need to find other people or maybe a police station to report this, even I know that something feels off. I turn back around re-entering the room and see the bag still on the floor.

 Maybe I should take that with me for some kind of evidence they could probably find some of the person's DNA on it or something. I look back outside and sigh, but the real problem is how am I supposed to get all the way over there in this storm. 

I could wait it out but I don’t know when that stalker will come back. So I have to go now. I push the top of my shirt over my mouth and grab the flashlight which I had probably dropped on the ground yesterday and I put it in the side pocket of the bag.

    I run out of the small building and turn around to look at it, and it looks just as disgusting on the outside as it does on the inside. It does kind of blend in with the moss and trees though so if I were just walking by I probably wouldn’t notice it. 

Then I turn back around and start heading towards the weird building I saw in the distance. There may be some sort of city around it or something. I still can’t really understand what’s going on but hopefully the police will be able to figure it out. I'm already feeling tired from walking after what I think was a few miles. I never realized how out of shape I was until now my whole body is aching from the exercise. I stop and look back up at the building with my hands on my knees, panting. I've gotten a lot closer, or at least I can tell now that the building is a dark silverish color. 

    It shouldn’t be much longer before I get there but the darkness is starting to wash over the forest. So I go back to walking but a little faster than before. Who knows what's all out here right now. By the time I had reached my destination it was pitch black outside so I quickly ran in the door to the building. Since it was dark it was kind of pointless to try and look around outside. It’s pretty dark inside the building too. The doors are made mostly of glass, and the floor is a dark grey color, it almost looks futuristic. I semi yell hello in the building but all I hear is the echo of my own voice booming down at me. It made me flinch a little bit. I said it a little louder than I had thought. I still don't see anybody. The only things I see are stairs on the left going up and elevators on the right, oh and a front desk in between them on the wall. 

    Seriously, where is everyone did something happen? I walk over to the elevator and click the little button next to it to try and get it to open but it doesn't. Great, the elevators aren't working. I look over to the stairs and immediately feel the dread of climbing up stairs but I have to know where everyone is or if there's anyone here. I slowly walk over to the stairs and begin to fumble up them. This has got to be some kind of coincidence because first I'm freaking kidnapped. I wake up in a room and I'm not tied up and now I can’t even find anyone. Ok Yomi calm down you need to think about this a little more before you come to any sort of conclusions.
