I climbed out of the vent. As soon as I climbed out, I saw her, the lady go into the elevator. I looked around, and then I followed after. The elevator took me to a living room. I saw a staircase, and I went up stairs. I noticed a lot of portraits on the wall. One of them was a picture with the lady in the middle, and two shadowy figures on each side of her. ~ What if the twin chefs and the janitor have something to do with this portrait? What if they where a family? But, who is the 5th creature?~ I thought. As I went upstairs, I heard a gentle humming sound. " Must be the lady.." I said to myself . I went to her room and hid under a chair near by.
I noticed that she was crying. "  What have I done?! What kind of mother am I?! I left my daughter to die just because of my beauty!! Six, P-please forgive me...please.." The lady cried out. ~ What?!

" Why did you do this to these poor gnomes and creatures? Why?" I asked tears dripping from my eyes. " Because I love you, Six!!" She fell on her knees. " Mummy, I love you too." I admitted. " I just need these creature's souls to keep me young Im so-" 
" So your youth is more important than your  own daughter?" I said cutting her off. I started to aim the mirror at her so she could look at herself. Mummy looked at herself and screamed. I let her look again and again until she finally gave up.
She breathed heavy " Six, p-please f-for-forgive  m-me." She said dying on the inside. " Mummy, I do, I swear, but first, I promised the gnomes something..." I told her. I got on top of her, and bit her a thousand times until...
