THE UNEXPECTED

TERRIBLE MISTAKE(continuation)

"ASTATINE. I need this element which is called astatine." It replied.

I did not respond. All I did was just stare at nothing. I didn't know what to say. Whatever was asked, it was something which Can't be given as it was a really very rare element and only few people had the access to the location where it was found. And that location was certainly not in my city Vienna. At that moment, my mind was completely jammed and I was having so many questions and the most important one was, what am I going to say? What if I stay innocent and act as if I don't know what he was talking about? Or what if I said that I know what he was talking about but I don't know where it is? Or what if I just say that he truth, and let the disaster happen?

"What is taking you so long? I'm pretty sure that a scholar like you, knows what astatine is. If you want me to tell you what exact it is, even though it's not necessary, I'll tell you.
Astatine is a radioactive chemical element with the atomic number 85. It is the rarest naturally occuring element in the Earth's crust, occuring only as the decay product of various heavier elements."

"I, I don't, I can't, oh gracious! Please."

"What is it? Don't try to lie to me or fool me. I am way smarter than you. Why do you think that I chose you to tell me? Why would I even get you over here if I didn't know that you have the information about it?"

So I went on with the safest option and said "I know what you are speaking about. But I swear ony grave that I don't have the access to the location where it is stored. Just because I'm a scholar, doesn't mean that I have the access to one of the world's most classified locations."

But of course, that thing was smarter  than me. It said "So you're trying to play smart. I'm not stupid. And before I got you over here, I clearly found out that you have the access to the restricted room of manuals and codes. Tell me where that room is, and I'll set you free."

I knew why he wanted to know where the room was. The room had a record of locations and other things which were too classified and not eligible for everyone to know. It also contained where astatine was stored!! Now, I had nothing in my hands anymore. It was a 'life or death' situation. If I don't tell the truth, I would loose my life. If I did, it would be a huge disaster.
