Violet felt the magic globe in her pocket vibrate. She looked for the nearest closet, and slipped into one.

"Harvey?" Violet whispered to the globe, pulling it out of her pocket, placing it close to her face.

"Violet!" Harvey exclaimed. "Are you done with the bombs yet?"

Violet looked at the bag she was holding. It had only three more bombs left.

"Almost!" She replied, smiling. "I'll see you soon!"

Harvey smiled at her, then the globe went black. Violet put the globe back in her pocket, when she heard voices outside of the closet. She tensed, holding her breath.

".....No, some others said they had the night guard of that box!" Violet her a man shout.

"Well, guess I get the night off then," another man said. Violet heard two sets of footsteps, and let out a quiet breath. She stayed in the closet for a few moments, then stepped out. The hinge on the door creaked, and she froze. There wasn't any other noise besides her breathing, so Violet stepped out into the corridor. No one was in sight.

Violet walked down the hall, placing the last three bombs on the wall.

She pulled the globe out of her pocket, and slipped into another closet.

"Harvey?" She whispered, afraid to speak any louder. "Where are you?"

"Still in the same hallway we all were?" Harvey muttered. Violet nodded.

"To your right, there will be another corridor, go down it, to the last door on your left. We're right in there!"

"Thanks," Violet mumbled, and slipped out of the closet, and jogged down the corridor.
