Prompt: Write a short story about a man who discovers a magical portal
Response:
Jeffrey had always been interested in the unexplained. As a kid, he would spend hours reading about ghosts, UFOs, and other strange phenomena.
But it was when he was twenty-one that Jeffrey finally found the answer to one of his lifelong mysteries. He had been searching for months for evidence of a portal that could take him to another world, and he finally found it while exploring an abandoned building.
As he stepped through the portal, Jeffrey was immediately transported to a strange world filled with creatures he had never seen before. He was seized by two large creatures, and before he could even scream, he was being dragged through the portal back into the abandoned building.
Jeffrey quickly realized that he was in danger and tried to run back through the portal, but it was already disappearing behind him. With no way of returning home, Jeffrey was forced to adapt to this new world and start over from scratch.
