Chapter 8 by TheGingerBreadMan TheGingerBreadMan

What happens when she pulls the book?

Book shelf rotates.

Alexis let out a loud shriek that was muffled quickly with the rotation of the bookshelf she was in front of. She found herself in a crawl space and noticed a glowing light to her left. With the book she extracted from the shelf she began to approach the glowing light and found her self descending down a small set of stairs, she discovered a round stone room with a wooden door that was lit by two torches on both sides of it. The door seemed weathered, but in working condition. Running her hand over the door. The rough exterior sent chills through her body and it was like a presence was drawing her in. Sliding her hands down to the door knob, she proceeded to turn it, but it didn't budge. Examining the door knob she took note to a key hole and had a crazy idea.

Luckily she had clipped the library keys to her skirt, placing the book in one of her arm pits she produced the large key ring and flipped through the various keys on it. After cycling through a few she came across one that went to the main entrance to the old library. It was eerily similar to a old fashion skeleton key with three teeth, each tooth a different size. Lining up the key to the hole, she carefully inserted the key which freely entered with no resistance. She was shocked and pleased with the key fitting and slowly she began to turn the key. She could hear and feel the mechanics of the old lock maneuvering inside the door clanking and crunching. With her other hand on the knob, as soon as the key could turn no more she carefully turned the no longer stuck knob and pushed the door open.

What lies behind the door?
