Hotel 69

Chapter‌ ‌one:‌ ‌‌Out‌ ‌of‌ ‌the‌ ‌Orphanage‌

Two children, Lyra, and her younger brother Raymond, Their parents went missing after going out. Leaving both kids alone with a babysitter. They promised their children they would be back the next day... But that never came to be. After staying in a hotel both went missing and were never found. It is unknown whether if the couple is alive or not, currently, they are presumed to be DEAD. The two siblings were given to an orphanage, St. Susie's. There, the children were raised to be proper ladies and gentlemen. Lyra being the tomboy female she was, refused to do anything. This resulted in punishments. Including, mouths being washed out with soap, no hold their arms out while standing in one place for hours, and being slapped or even beaten. Lyra wanted nothing more to do with her prison. She had a variety of items she had collected over the years, knowing and hoping one day she would break free from this place.

In the process of leaving her building, Raymond saw her and asked, " Lyra?" she turned her head in the direction of the male. "You're leaving me?..." he asked in a soft voice, noticing her bag and items she was carrying along with her clothes that she was wearing. She smiled and told him, "go back to bed Ray... You'll be fine here, but not me, " He refused and decided o go with her, packing a week's worth of clothes and followed his older sister. They continued sneaking around the courtyard and finally climbed up a wall. Raymond was afraid of the height and was shaking so much. "Ly, do we really have to do this? The orphanage isn't all bad!" He said softly to not attract the attention of the guards they managed to sneak past. " This is our ONLY chance Ray!" she said raising her voice but still in a whisper. " I-I know... B-But..." He looked down, fiddling with his fingers beginning to tear up. She put a hand on his shoulder, " If you don't wanna do this it's okay, you can turn back now" She said sweetly as she gave him a soft smile. "N-no I wanna go with y-you.." he whimpered. She chuckled a bit. "I'm sorry then.." lyra whispered. He was confused, "For wha-" his sentence soon became a scream after she pushed him off the wall away from the orphanage.

She looked down after hearing a thud. She rolled her eyes, "Such a crybaby." The female said before throwing herself down as well. A loud thud was heard, after was shouting, "A CHILD HAS ESCAPED" they repeated over and over. Lyra opened her eyes, a few nights before when exploring, she had found someone had left an old mattress so, she used it to her advantage. She glanced over to her brother. He had tears brimming in his eyes, and he was shaking, terrified. She stood up and held a hand out to the male, "C'mon, they're looking for us" He grabbed hold of her hand, gathered their stuff and they bolted away from the hellish nightmare she had to call home for so many years. A few minutes later... "Crap..." Lyra cursed at herself. He glanced at her and asked, "What is it?" She walked next to him and said, " We need a place to sleep, and I don't wanna sleep in the woods"
