Chapter 1

Somewhere far from the city..

A girl with short brown hair and green eyes was running in the middle of a forest. It seemed as if she was running away from something in that forest, devoid of any being. The girl continued running while saying to herself:

(I must get away from this ominous forest! Why did you come here in the first place?! I am so stupid! How stupid are you, Ilian? Did you have to come here?!).. ..

After a good amount of time of continuous running, Elian stopped to catch her breath, then kept watching where her feet led her... There was a simple house in the middle of that forest... a small house like the one you see in the cartoon, and its walls were painted. It was black, and its windows and ceiling were the same color, which surprised her

At the same time she said:

(Strange... Why is there a house here? Who would build a house in this place?!...And above all, why did the owner of this house paint it black?!! Didn't he find only this color out of all the colors?! ).

Elian walked towards the house and kept looking at it, then asked:

-Should I perhaps knock on the door? What if I disturb the owner of the house? But what if there is no one in there?...Anyway, I will try my luck.

Elian noticed that the door did not have a handle, so she was surprised by the matter, but she did not pay any attention to it. Elian knocked on the door and kept waiting for someone to open the door for her. She realizes that what she is doing now is reckless, as she does not know if it was An ordinary person lives here. What if he is a criminal escaping from the police or something? What if he tried to kill her because she had accidentally discovered his secret hideout? Just thinking about it made her afraid. She was hesitant between running away or waiting, but she made up her mind and waited for a long time until she fell asleep and fell asleep after she sat in a cross-legged position and rested her head on the wall...

...----------------...

Elian woke up from her sleep and found that darkness had fallen over the place. She rubbed her eyes as she yawned, then looked at her wristwatch to see that the clock hands had stopped working, as they were pointing to six o’clock in the evening. She was amazed at the matter and thought to herself: (Maybe it has broken down.) The hour or the battery ran out), but this astonishment turned into fear and panic when she turned back to find that the small house had turned into a huge palace and was the same color as the house... 'black'!!... the ominous and gloomy color, that's what 'Eliane' thought. 'I have always considered this color to symbolize death. People in the city wear black clothes at funerals. She did not like this color, and seeing it anywhere did not please her and made her pessimistic, since her childhood.

While observing the “Black Palace,” she noticed a faint light in one of the windows, and as she continued to stare at that window, she saw the silhouette of a tall person who looked like the shadow of a man. She could not see his facial features, so she continued to stare at him, hoping that she could see him better, but Elian was shocked. The man suddenly looked at her! It was as if he felt that she was looking at him, and this time she was able to see his face clearly thanks to the moonlight. His facial features were She was beautiful, to say the least. He had strange eyes, but they were beautiful to Elian. Their color was red like a ruby, which is a beautiful jewel that Elian loved very much. His nose was carefully carved, and his hair was black as coal. In any case, that man or young man kept staring at “Elian,” and she looked at him with reverence. Her feet froze from fear and her body convulsed. She was no longer able to move or think. She just kept looking at him and he looked back at her. Then a ghost appeared in the gap. A smile that she thought was imagining what she saw, but she couldn't hold it together anymore, so she started running like a lion without stopping until she came out of that forest, and she started panting hard, and her body was trembling with fear as she thought:

(Oh my God...that person saw me!! I was so shocked! Thank God I ran away quickly, otherwise I don’t know what would have happened if I stayed there any longer, but the strange thing is... how did that small house turn into a palace!! I know that rumors say that this forest has been abandoned for years and that no one dares to enter it. There, especially at night, they say that whoever enters there disappears.)

Flash back *

Elian had been advised never to enter the forest by her family when she told them about her desire to take a tour in the forest. They had warned her several times, but she did not listen to them. She was stubborn by nature and only listened to what her mind dictated to her. She also did not listen to them. She was convinced and did not believe those rumors, so she wanted to confirm whether the abandoned forest was actually “cursed” as it was said about it, or not. So she claimed to her family that she was going to meet one of her friends and hid the fact from them that she was going to the forest because they would prevent her if she told them about it.

So, Elian left her home after promising her mother that she would not be late, then headed to her intended destination, the “abandoned forest.” When she wanted to enter, a strange man prevented her from entering the forest, so she asked him why, claiming stupidity:

-Why can't I get in?

-Because you will...

-will..?

-T....

-What!!!
