TRAPPED - Hamilstory

Chapter 8

(Sorry if I don't post for long periods of time. It takes me a while to write these chapters and they still end up horrible.)

The box was freezing. Like something that would be in a freezer for days and days. I went to open the box but it wouldn't work. There was a lock right on the front. "Just when we thought we were somewhere close." Angelica said. 

Eliza came running up the stairs and she hugged me. "Awe Alex don't worry things will get better..." she was acting weird. Usually, she's quiet and shy near me and now she's...flirting? I don't know but I don't really care. I shrugged her off and walked back downstairs kicking the broken floorboard.

I was beyond mad. I needed to find the key to that box. 

After a few hours of just sitting down looking at the ceiling, I noticed something. It was like a little, tiny edge sticking out of the ceiling fan. Most people would think it was nothing. But not me. I took 10 books and stacked them on top of each other. 

 I stood on top of the books and reached for the edge. But that wasn't the key. I yelled because I was so angry. I then jumped off the books and laid on the floor crying. I was so desperate to get John out of there. 

"I'm sick of this! I'm getting that stupid key." Hercules said and grabbed the box. He raised it in the air and smashed it onto the ground. It broke into pieces and the only thing that wasn't broken was a sliver key. I grabbed the key and ran towards John. I slid the key through the hole and turned it. The metal door opened with a creek and I fell to the floor and hugged John. He was safe in my arms.
