The Forest

Chapter 5

Jugee's P.O.V.

"It's so fun to play with these humans, but I'm not successful in killing them. Every time. I hope I can kill this 'Angel' girl and I can live for eternity, and no one can stop me," I said, clearly talking to myself.

I walked over to my books to cast a spell to make a trap for them, again. This time I'm going to summon a dome full of doors inside. That'll confuse them, I thought. I opened a book and casted the spell.

Angel's P.O.V.

As we were walking, we saw a strange building up ahead. Was it there before or was I just not focusing on what's up ahead? "Uhm... Richard, was that building there before?"

"I don't think so. I lived in this forest for years, and have not come across that."

"Ookaaaaayyyyy, well shall we explore inside?"

"I don't think so. It might be a trap."

"Oh c'mon, let's go," I said, tugging his arm in a childish way.

"Fine, but be careful. I be right behind you if someone attacks you," Richard assured me.

"Okay. Let's go!" The building was a dome. It has vines growing on the walls. It was glinting in the sun, like it's just new, it was made up of gold. The entrance was a simple dark oak door. We entered the dome and closed the door behind us. Once we were inside, the lights of the dome suddenly turned on. "I got a bad feeling about this," Richard mumbled.

"Well, for one thing there are so many doors in here! Hey, look, there's a sign over there. Let's read it." We walked over to where the sign is. It read:

Find the right door
Or it will be the end of you
Make sure you choose the right door
That can get you to the Land of Dragons immediately
Each door has it's own unique way
of killing you
Take note that there are at least ten thousand
doors in here. Good luck!

"Look! There are three worn out letters here. There are only letters g and e. Hmm... who could this be?" I said, making me sound like a detective.

"The truth is, I really don't know. Well maybe we can find some clues."

"Yeah. Hey, maybe... look at the ground! What is that?" I pointed at the floor.

"One question, do we really need to go to this shortcut? Clearly we can just walk there, and this is a puzzle-trap kind of thing. You have a chance to die, you know."

"Fine, let's go back and walk," I walked to the door and tugged at the handles. The door didn't budge, "We're stuck!" I mumbled angrily.

"Oh well, let's just get this over with. Let's go find some clues."

"Look at the floor. There is like some kind of picture of a human. It's familiar. I forgot who this is."

"Isn't it obvious? It's Jugee!" Richard throwed his arms in the air.

"Oh. Well that's easy. J is 10. U is 21. G is 7. E is 5. Simple addition. The answer is 47."

"No, no, no. It is addition then subtraction then multiplication then division. Ten plus twenty-one is thirty-one. Thirty-one minus seven is twenty-four. Twenty-four multiplied by five is 120. 120 divided by five is twenty-four." He crossed his arms.

"Okay, Mister Math Wizard. C'mon then, let's go to Door Twenty-four."

Jugee's P.O.V.

"Hah! Really!? Door Twenty-four? Are they really that dumb? They'll surely die instantly," I said happily,"It's Door One Hundred! Hahaha."

Suddenly, in the crystal ball, Angel's head looked around, "Richard, did you hear anything? I heard a faint voice that said 'It's Door One Hundred!' Did you hear that?"

"Uh-oh. How can she have heard me?" I mumbled to myself.

"Nope. But if that's the door, let's go there." suggested Richard.
