• Video entry, March twenty-first, two thousand-five…… “Daddy!!!” The little girl ran into her fatherss open arms and gave him a bear hug, “Hey sweetie! And what did you do today?” He asked looking at her, “I planted my first flower! And I wrote a story, and I rode my bike, and me and mom went to the park and played in the grass!!” She replied energetically “Really? That’s great honey!” He twirled the little girl in his arms and kissed her on the cheek. “Welcome home honey” the two turned their heads to see the girls mom leaning against the door leading to the kitchen, “Hi honey” he put the little girl down and walked over to his wife. “And how was your day?” She asked smiling up at him, “Splendid, we discovered a new rift and we have already started working on it” “That’s great” she kissed her husband on the cheek and walked back into the kitchen, the little girl and the father followed after her.

    Video entry, June tenth, twenty-ten….. The door closed with a loud thud and the girl placed her backpack on the ground, “I’m home mom!” She yelled as she walked into the living room. The girl’s mom was sitting on the couch with a tissue in her hand and tears streaming down her face, “What’s wrong mom?” The girl asked sitting down next to her, “Sweetie” she wrapped her arm around the little girl’s shoulder and took a deep breath, “There was an accident in the lab” she started, “A large explosion happened and….” The mother stopped, unable to say anything else and she didn’t need to finish the little girl understood what had happened.

    Video entry, November third, twenty-fifteen….. The girl walked into her home with five police officers trying to keep her back, “What’s going on?!!” She took another step forward to look into the living room, “I need…” then she suddenly stopped, her eyes wide and her body frozen. The man zipped up the black bag as fast as he could and looked away from the girl, “Someone get her out of here” another said blocking her eye site, but it didn’t matter she had already seen what happened.

    Video entry, April nineteenth, twenty-twenty….. “Will you come with me or not?” The man asked as the small portal was closing, “Will you?” She just stared at him, she didn’t know what to do, “Should I or shouldn’t I?” She asked herself as his body was slowly being consumed by the small hole, “Will you?” He asked again, she just stared at him, her breathing picked up and she took a step forward, “Yes” she grabbed his hand and he pulled her through.

    Video entry, October first, twenty twenty-five….. Nothing.

    That’s what happened to all those who entered that house, every five years the recorder would turn on and tape what was happening right then and there, of course no one paid attention to it and no one listened to the voices that were coming from it. Any family that lived their ended up leaving that world for another world, it didn’t matter how it happened, if they died, were pulled through a portal, or if they got lost. One way or another any family that lived in that house disappeared. No one knows where he or she went all they know is that the families disappeared.

    Video entry, January first, twenty-thirty……… The hand pulled away and the girl sat down, “Hi there, I’ve noticed a little something about this recorder, it only turns on every five years and if you listen you can hear voices. I assume those voices belong to the families that use to live here and none of them had ever noticed the recorder, so as long as I’m here, every five years I’m going to tell story and hopefully the next family that moves in will discover the same thing I did. And hopefully they’ll do what I’m doing now, so my name is Sophie Airs and this is my first video entry.

    Video entry, September thirtieth, twenty thirty-five…. “Hello” the girl smiled into the camera with a bag of popcorn in her hands, “Well the last five years have been fantastic, I have graduated from college and I just landed myself a permanent job!” She got and jumped around in joy, “And-drum roll please?” The girl leaned over and hit play on her iHome, “Today’s my birthday, I am now an official twenty-five year old” she smiled into the camera and continued to tell her story.

    Video entry, July seventeenth, twenty-forty….. “I won’t let you take me” she said to the recorder, “I know what this place does” she looked at it with tears streaming down her face, “And I won’t let you take me!!!” She screamed as the walls began to collapse around her, “I won’t let you take me!!!” She tried to make a dash for the door, but it was no longer there the windows disappeared as well and then, there was nothing.

    Video entry, February twenty-fifth, twenty forty-five…. Nothing.
