Chapter 5
I turn the corner and see a small table. It has a note on it.
You have 48 hours and 30 minutes left remaining until you can get out.
Alrighty then. I keep walking straight until I see a sign on the wall.
Good job!! Now solve this riddle to open the gate:
If there were three roosters that laid 5 eggs each, how many eggs would you have??
"Ok, the answer is fifteen" I said to the sign. Then a new sign pops up.
Wrong!!! You have two more chances before we make you start over.
What??? Let me read it again. Wait... roosters don't lay eggs.
"Roosters don't lay eggs." I tell the sign.
Correct!! Another sign said.
Then another door opened. Yes!! This is going to be easier than I thought. Unless the riddles get harder...
Through the doors was another hallway. This hallway seemed to have more light. The door behind me slams shut. The sound scares me a little.
I kept on walking, not really paying attention until the next step I took didn't land on the ground. I slid down the cliff. I panicked.
Good thing it was easy to climb afterward. After walking a series of twists and turns, I finally found another sign. It said:
You answer me but I never ask you questions. What am I?
Uh... That's a tough one. You answer me but I never ask you questions. Uh... A person? No wait.. people ask questions. What a second... a telephone!!
"Telephone." I said to the sign. The door behind it opened and behind the wall was a room. I got pushed into the room and the door locked behind me. I was stuck in this room.
Then I heard an old raspy voice say: "The walls will start to close in. You need to say the magic word. Hint: The magic word is something red, black, and white all over."
Then the walls started to close in.
