Soon after our interaction through the walkie-talkies, Vic and Nick was walking through the door we opened a few moments ago.

 Vic – Is everything okay?

Thomas – I was poisoned.

Bella – We need to find an antidote for him. 

Nick – Alright, where was the poison?

Vic – For fucks sake. *she said before walking out*

Nick – Where are you going? *he asked as we followed her*

Vic – I'm opening the last fucking door! 

Thomas – Victoria no!

Vic – Why not Thomas?

Thomas – What if you also get hurt?

Nick – The Host said that there were only two safe doors to open. If Alex got stabbed and you got poisoned, the last one should be safe.

Bella – He could be lying.

Vic – I'm opening it anyway. 

Victoria opened the door and walked in before any of us could say anything. I curiously peeked through the door to see what was inside the room. I could only see a table. Soon after, she was walking back out with a piece of paper and a key. 

Vic – I assume this is for you. *she said while slamming the piece of paper on Thomas' chest*

 Victoria never stopped walking and we just followed her not knowing what she was going to do.

Nick – What are you doing?

Vic – I'm unlocking the last locked door upstairs.

Nick – How do you know it's the key for the locked door upstairs?

Vic – This key is one of those old keys like all the others. The door slot of the only other locked door down here is different.

 We follow her upstairs. She opens the door quite easily. Inside the door was, wait. The walls were covered by bookshelves filled with chemicals and some more books. I mean, the bad didn't have actual chemicals, only the materials so it kind of makes sense that they're here but at the same time it makes absolutely no sense. In the centre of the room, there was another table with another key on it. 

Nick – What would we need that key for?

Vic – I have no idea. Bella, take the key and go look around. Thomas, I need you to come with me. Nick go try to find out what chemicals are in the poison. I think you can do that with what we have in the lab. 

Bella – Okay, I'll do that. 

I stay behind looking around the room as the three of them leave the room. I was looking at the books there when I notice a book that seems familiar. I walk out and go to the library straight into the science section. I look through the books for a while until I find it! The same book, same cover, same title everything! It still looked familiar though. I decided to open it and go through some of the pages. When I finally find a piece of the blueprint. The one Nick showed me! That explains why it felt familiar seeing that book! I sprinted back to the freshly opened door. I got in and took the book out of the bookshelf. There was something written on the dark wood but I couldn't see what it was due to the lack of light in that spot. I, once again, hurried to my room to grab my phone. I picked it up and the first thing I did was check the battery percentage.

Bella – 45% great! *I mumbled ironically*

I rushed back to the room. There, I turned on the lantern on my phone and pointed it to the carved words. "The key to being one step closer to leaving is a code."
