Story 4

I peeked through the hole in the door.

"All clear!" I whispered to Erin. 

I hope, I added silently.

"Alright," She studied me carefully.

"It's all clear guys!" Adam called to Hailey, Quartz and Robin.

I pushed the door ever so slightly and it creaked open, like it would in a horror movie. We crept down the richety old stairs which made soft squeaky noises, like it would in a horror movie. We sneaked across the room on creaky old floorboards, and they groaned under our weight, like it would in a horror movie.

This all adds up to one thing. 

Illuminati Confirmed.

No, just kidding. 

It means that if this was a horror movie, something would happen right about...

A door off to our left creaked open softly.

...well something had to happen.

We all screamed and crowded against the other wall.

And out stepped...

...a rather unlikely figure. A boy about our age with messy brown hair and icy blue eyes. 

"How old are you?" I asked the boy.

"12," he answered simply.

Illuminati Confirmed.

"What is your name?" I asked, stepping forward cautiously.

"I don't know," he said, shaking his head.

"Well that's a funny name," I crossed my arms.

"Do you think I'm joking?" he gave me a thunderous look. "I can remember everything except my name."

"Ok, so tell us what happened."

"Well, I remember this place, I remember a large castle, stained with black blood, I remember seeing you there once, talking to the King..." he listed.

"Well, that is rather odd. And quite coincidental. We happen to be reporting back to King Charlie and Queen Rose. We can take you back to the Black Palace if you want us to," I offered.

"If you would be so kind," he said, gesturing to the doorway.

I peeked at my watch. We had 10 hours to get to the Black Palace. And 23 miles to go.

"Ok crew, we may have a problem. 10 hours to sundown, and 23 miles to get there. Whad'd'ya say?" I looked expectantly at them.

"Well, it's downright impossible. Let's do it!" Erin punched the air.

"Sounds like the utterly cranky thing to do." I nodded at the boy. "We're going."
