Murder In The Ashes

Chapter Two - The Building

The Road seemed to go on forever, but eventually we came to a giant fence that the road parallel to. We came to a run-down fountain, the road running around it. As we drove up to the giant, rusted steel gates. I stopped the car, got out and hit the button that opens the gates. As they started to open a small shadow dashed across the gates, and the gates slammed shut releasing a massive clank into the air, causing birds to fly away.

'How are we ganna get in?' Eve asked, brushing her silky, shiny, long brunette hair behind her ear 'Ok so, the gate won't open but...' I point to a hole in the fence 'we're walking from her babe' as I say this we all get out the car, I lock it of course and I go through small hole, I start working on making the hole bigger as it was difficult the get through, i help Jack and Tim through, but for eve I got Jack and Tim to help me break the fence even further, I hold her hand as she crouches, walking through 'there ya go princess' I say as I stare into her green eyes, we lock lips for a few seconds before she breaks away saying 'thanks babe, you're my knight in shining armour' she says, her voice like a river of gold.

We walk down the long road through the fog, my hand and Eve's clenched together. As we walked the fog thickened, till we couldn't see for more than 4 metres. Eventually, through the fog emerged a massive building, it was made of a dark purple wood, it reached as far as the clouds and stretched to the horizon. I ahead never seen such a magnificent building.

But as mentioned in the legend the roof was charred and has holes in it, heck even the walls had holes in it, and I bet the floors did too, I mean it had four of them. My mind was thinking of two things, one: how in the absolute fuck it was still structurally stable and two: what mysteries would we find inside.
