"Mary J? Mary J wake up! Are you okay ?" said mother waking me up.

"Yes,what is it mother?" I said as I looked at the clock "Mum! it's 4 am"

"what's that blood on your pillow miracle?!"

I couldn't answer her she have just asked that question.

"Mother, have you been here? like an hour ago? and asked me that question?!"

"Mary J are you trying to hide something? because you know punishment isn't your thing!"

I was confused she seemed to be really asking me like I've never answered!

"No mother, nothing to hide.. I don't know where's the blood came form, I had it like this last week"

"And why didn't you tell me darling?"

"Because you'll just freak out and that won't help, I think I know where that blood came from but I just can't remember" I paused and thought I've said that before!

"You should have told me Mary!" said mother shouting, "don't you know about the corpse! don't you know hiding things might kill you?"

"Mother it's 4 am now... are you willing to argue?"

"Well good night Mary J, and just keep your eyes wide open."

She left , then I stayed awake on a candlelight doing my best to get what has just happened..then I thought it might be a dream, a normal one!

but how could that happen, I mean...not the exact words but a message! I memorized the last part of the dream, when i found that door!...then I got out of my room to the library...I looked for that door with the fingerprint looker .. I found it , I held it.. then a sound rougher than stones "Mrs.justice, live forever your majesty"

"why are you shouting at me?" I said

"how could I your shout to you your majesty ? how could the servant shout to the king? how could the weak shout to the hero? how could the bird shout to the tree?"

"Bird ? tree?" I wondered

"birds stand on the tree" he said to me with a lower voice.

"ohhh" I said in an amazement.

He lifted up his voice louder than before "how could the son shout to his father? how co.."

"it's okay Mr. ...?"

"It's Sedrek Derek Eric William Helium Titanium, your servant!"

I paused looking at him in an amazement and said "so what was your name?"

He laughed and said,"You can call me Eric!"

"Okay Eric, so. can you tell me about this looker please? what's that finger print?"

He smiled in a so lovely way "Mrs. Justice, you're still too young to know about it ..it brings overthinking! you shouldn't be worrying about it now..!"

"You should remember that if you don't accept it as a quest, accept it as an order!"

He got a sorry face then he knelt to the group and said "As you order me your majesty, this looker was at the kingdom since it was constructed,since forever! hundreds of kings ruled, none of them ever could open it!.. all we know about it is the information one the door "living history" , we all are not sure if it's right to wait this long! "

"And what's wrong with waiting?"

"Every book in that library guide us to something, if that door contains guiding books we might die if we did the opposite of what the books guide"

"What about that you're alive now?" I asked

"So that means that we are on the right Trac, but no one can walk blindly forever!" he said sadly.

His voice was louder than ever .."SO HAVE A NICE GOOD SLEEPING" he looked at the clock quickly , already 6 am "MORNING!"

"To bed now before your mother interview you Mrs. Justice" said Eric kindly.

"Oh nice idea! see you later Mr. Eric"

"See you later your majesty" he said as I left the library.

I sneaked to my room, I should be at breakfast at 9 , well fine 3 hours to sleep!

I closed the curtains, changed my bloody pillow ,and thought of some sleep.

then I thought "why did the dream say nothing about Eric?"

So I got up again, went to the library "Eric? Eric?"

No one answered ! I lifted my voice "Eric are you there?"

"Your majesty? why are you awake ? its still to early!" said a servant.

"Was just looking for Eric."

"Who's Eric your majesty?" said the servant in a huge surprise.

"The library keeper?"

"I've never heard of him your majesty! I am the only library keeper in the castle. "

I paused and remembered that I too don't remember anything about Eric expect the conversation of the last two hours! .. I've never seen him before!..
