Touch the fire

 


You take a few cautious steps forward, extend your right arm, and out of curiosity plunge your hand into the flame. For an instant you question why you did such a stupid thing, but the raw heat feels rather... soothing.


Your entire arm bursts into flames. You freak out at first, pulling your arm out of the furnace, but then realize there's still absolutely no pain. You grab your arm with your left hand, and it goes straight through it. Your arm is pure flame. You notice you seem to have no wrist, and where your fingers should be are four tongues of flame.


The blaze spreads across your torso, incinerating all clothing on your top half. It takes your left arm and legs, reducing your entire outfit to ashes. The only part of you the inferno has yet to claim is your head, and that will soon change. The tongues of fire lick your neck and engulf your skull. You close your eyes and flame washes over them. You realize you can no longer speak.


You reopen them. You feel weightless. You look down and see two pillars of fire ending in many individual flames rather than legs and feet. Behind your head, where your hair should be is a long tendril of blaze, longer than you are tall. I say tendril because it is a controllable part of you. You're floating an inch or two off the ground. You move towards the furnace, and look at your reflection in the metal. Your face has two large depressions where your eyes should be, and lacks any other facial features. You realize your lack of a mouth means you can no longer speak, but seeing the many benefits to your amorphous form, you don't totally care. You look up, and blaze up and out of the building.


The mansion burnt down that day. Some said it was a failing furnace. Others a restless spirit. Others still believe you somehow managed to raze the building. But there is one thing all agree on: your ghost would forever haunt those grounds.


From your hiding place among the burning wood, you silently giggle to yourself, knowing all three were true, and that you wouldn't stay in one place for long.

  It is the night before Halloween day. A few blocks from your house is an old mansion. Nobody knows who lives there, but legends have it that the once Magic Twins lived in the Mansion but abandon the place for some mysterious reasons. Your friend dared you to spend the night at this manor, a dare you were hesitant to accept, but you took this dare to avoid the title of chicken. Now it is dusk, and you are a few feet away from the front door to this mausoleum. You herd rumors that this place has a curse or curses.  It is told that if a person enters the Mansion they must find the key before the clock strikes 12. If they don't retrieve the key by that time , they'll become one with the mansion. Another rumor has it said that each of the rooms here will transform the person and send them somewhere. And the last rumor was that what ever you touch with in the mansion is what you become once you left mansion. What do you do first?: Look around the yard Go inside

Look around the yard

 You decide that maybe you can cheat your friend while still doing the dare by spending the night on the property, but not in the actual building. You walk around the house and go through a black gate. You don't notice that it locks itself once you're through. It's a nice yard, the browning leaves of autumn make it a nice sight. You almost forget this place is supposedly haunted. Three things stick out to you, a dumpster, a pond, and a neat pile of leaves. What do you choose to do next?: Investigate the dumpster Investigate the pond Act like a child and jump in the leaf pile

  You walk into the restroom hoping that its still functional. But as you walk in you notice that it look like it was still pretty new but out of everything the bathtub look weird since it was full. Being drawn to it. You quickly got undress and got into the bath tub. It felt nice as you sat in it. You then felt like it was deeper then it was. As you dove down into the tub you just kept swimming. You failed to notice as your body started to change. You started to regress and gain more female features then your mind began to alter as you couldn't recall what you were doing but as you went back up to the surface you found yourself in a bathtub but you were not alone as you glance at your baby sister as she sat in her special chair and you look at your mommy and told that you were swimming into a deep ocean. Your mother laugh and commented that you have such a wild imagination. As the new 2 sister played in the tub while they're mother cleans them the 2 got out and dry off and hea
