Alison McNamara had just been walking home from her evening part-time job, something she did to earn a bit of extra money like most 17 year olds. She'd made this walk a hundred times before, there was no reason for tonight to be any different....and yet very different it was. Life changing infact.
She wasn't really sure what had happened....one minute she had been walking home down the empty street, the lights overhead flickering slightly as usual, and then suddenly....all she remembered was a flash....so bright it had blinded her just for a moment....and then when it had faded she was somewhere totally different.
Now, Alison found herself in a strange room. The wall, floors and ceiling were all made from a smooth metal that was cold to the touch, so cold that she shivered and pulled her jacket a little more tightly around herself. Whilst the room was brightly lit, there seemed to be no visible light source, as if the light in the room was simply....there.
"Hello...?" Slowly Alison stood up, moving towards one of the walls and running her hand across the smooth metal. There wasn't even a hint of roughness, no kind of seam, as if the walls, floor and ceiling were simply a continuous single piece of metal. "Hello? Anybody? Please, somebody answer me!"
