Chapter 565: A little help

Gyles

The hallway is dark.

I have a lot of reasons to be afraid right now but I want to keep a brave front. I don’t want to look weak in front of Eleanor. She is here with me, her eyes are faced forward as we look around. I should be able to find the part of the house that it all happened. The room that all those people were killed. All I have to see is the door but this place is massive. There are a lot of doors that lead to other doors and I don’t want anyone to find me.

I don’t want to be seen while carrying my search.

"Where do we look first?’’ Eleanor asks me calmly. She is too chill right now. I don’t know what she has to lose but it seems like she has a lot to lose if we are caught. She has been trapped for so long and I just want to be able to set her and the rest free.

"I don’t know, this place is fucking huge,’’ I tell her as I open a door slowly. Her eyes follow me as I look into the room. I think I have been here before with Blue. This is the potion room. We walk in and I notice all the shelves filled with books and things inside bottles that I assume to be potions. I look around the room, in search of anything that could be a clue or something.

"You are supposed to show me where this room is. How am I supposed to find it on my own?’’ I blame her.

"I don’t know where it is, there must be something blocking me from finding the room."

Her words make no sense. If she is really buried in that room as she claims, then she should be able to feel it. I don’t want to believe that Analise’s magic is stronger than everybody else’s. It is just not possible.

I look around the room, behind all the shelves. I don’t know why but something is pushing me towards this room. Something is telling me that there is more to this room than meets eye and I need to find out. I need to get to the bottom of it.

"What are you looking for?" Eleanor asks.

She is not helping me right now, so I don’t even understand her purpose. I don’t understand the reason why she is here if she is not going to help me. I rummage through the shelves in search of a doorway. A part of me feels like there could be something in here.

Maybe this is just me speculating but for now, it is all I have. I have to look for it for now.

Something shuffles from the far end of the room. We both turn to the sound immediately and I watch as she walks over to it. I follow her and stop in front of the shelf. I pick up the book from the floor and place it back in the space between the rest of the books. A heavy sound comes out and I watch as the shelf starts to split into two. My hands tremble as I see the door that I was looking for desperately. Right in place sight.

I take out the book from the shelf again, just to see how this works, but nothing happens as I wait. After a couple of seconds, I put the book back into the slot and the shelf starts to close up again. I do the same thing again and it opens up again. I reach for the doorknob and it is locked.

"Fuck,’’ I exclaim in frustration.

I don’t know what I was thinking. There is no way it would have been unlocked. She is not that stupid. She must know that someone is bound to find this place. "What are we going to do?’’ I ask Eleanor because she needs to step up and help me.

"Pick up the book again," she tells me.

I raise a brow in confusion but at the same time, I turn back to the shelves and pick up the book that serves as a key. "Open it up,’’ she tells me.

I do as she says and open the book slowly. My hands are still shaking. I don’t know why I am so nervous. I know there is no time, Analise would eventually notice my absence and it will raise questions. I don’t want it to get to that point. I need to know where the room is and figure things out before it gets to that point. There is nothing significant in the book. I look up to her with the book in my grip "Well what am I supposed to be looking for?’’ I ask her.

I am sure she can tell that I am frustrated and I don’t like that she is not helping me right now. "I don’t know, I just thought the answers will be in the book. I am sorry, I don’t know how to help. Maybe we need the book,’’ she suggests.

I sigh "We can’t go back up right now, the book is all the way in the room,’’ I remind her.

She nods but just as she does, I see a flash of light on the table in the middle of the room. We both walk to it and there it is. The book of evil that Blue kept hidden safely in his room. The one he begged me not to touch without him there.

"How is it here?’’ I ask her.

She shrugs "I don’t even know what is happening. It seems like the only one that can answer your questions is the book,’’ she smiles warmly. There is this connection she has with the book. I know they are using the book to talk to me but at the end of everything. The book will be all that will be left when they are finally free.

I reach for it and the voices that come with it swarm into my head. They are sharp and loud. The kind of voices that should terrify me if I wasn’t already used to it.

The minute I open the book, I feel a wave of wind pass over me and to the other side of the room where the door is. I hear the click and the creak of the door.

Okay.
