The Irene Dairies

The halls

Emma's P.O.V

As I turned around to walk in to the hall I felt sadness, regret of leaving my only friend. Anika was my sister and if something happened to her or to me then then. I stopped. My mind was racing but this was not the time to cry. I need to keep moving. I kept walking down the long white hall. Ever single step I took, a sound would follow and it wasn't my footsteps. I was scared but I walk until I reached the door. I never turned around. If I did I might find something that I don't want to see.
When I found the entrance to the library I stop and looked at the room. This library was small but still had a lot of books just not as many as the one Anika went to. Right as I took a step I felt something cold on my shoulder. It was a hand and it wasn't my sisters. I was terrified more then that. My first instinct was to make a run for the books. I had no time to turn around and look. I knew my plan and this time it was a good one. Since I got to design this library, I know where all the books are and I also know that there is a secret tunnel system made for emergencies. I ran for the left self and grabbed the book that said "portal spells" then I pulled another book and a hatch opened. I slid through the small opening and continued the slide down. Right as the door closed I saw a glimpse of the figure. I didn't worry about until I got to the end of the slide.
It led to a safe room that is filled with levers to open certain panels. I realized someone else has been down here because the real relic is down here and a fake relic is on top. I wonder if my mom has already been down here knowing there was an intruder and set up the relic. That is why she wanted to leave so fast. My mom also knew who the intruder was so she didn't want to leave us. I knew who the intruder was too.
