Chapter 5

Thank you @she-tries-too-hard for the banner

  Looks like I'm in a house, an old one. It's night, around twelve maybe. I'm in a medium sized room. The moonlight sweeps through the window, giving the place a faint glow. The objects in the room cast an eerie shadow, giving me the creeps.

  I wait for some time, just to make sure it's safe to get out. The only sound I hear is my breath and the owl hooting. Great, a perfect haunted house setting.

  After about five minutes

  Now I'm getting bored. I don't see any danger, I should look around a bit.

  I try to get out as quietly as possible, but being me, I obviously had to drop an object. I mind slap myself and get out quickly before somebody hears the sound and comes in. I walk carefully, step by step, making sure I don't create any more sound.

  A few minutes later, I get tired of being careful, so I start walking normally and decide to explore the place. I see pictures of many people hanging on the wall, I wonder who they are. I take a few rights and lefts and reach a long corridor. I walk straight at my own pace and suddenly stop. There it is, the same feeling I got when I was at the fair. The nervousness. Let me tell you, this isn't the feeling you get when you're stuck in a creepy house, this is different. It feels like the Trizex are close. Ugh. I hate this.

  I take a few more steps then stop again. I can hear people talking. I can clearly identify one of the voices.

Razack: So you know where she is, Lex?

Lex: Ye-yes sire! Bu-but not exactly, I...

Razack: Tell!

  His voice echos through the whole house. My body involuntarily trembles. I feel cold shivers run through my body even though it's quite warm in here.

Lex: I feel she's near the woods in a place with lots of flowers.

Razack: *angrily* WHAT? Do you know how many places are situated near the woods filled with flowers? Which one?

Lex: I don't know sire, I'm trying my best to see where she is, but all I see is woods and flowers.

  Wait, did he just say he SEES woods and flowers? Is he like a tracker or something?

Razack: NOW WHAT DO WE DO?! You're a useless piece of shit!

  I think Razack slapped Lex, because a woman whose voice I also recognize starts talking.

Adira: Sire, he's the only tracker we have. Maybe he can come up with more information later.

Razack: MAYBE? LATER? You know that won't work right! We only have the Zelt now! The paper is lost! It's friggin LOST! How are you planning to get it back?!

Adira: I have an idea, we can all spread out. Each Trizex in each place. Lex only sees the most prominent feature of a place. There aren't many places filled with flowers and near the woods. We can find her.

Razack: Hmm... Okay. Now spread out. GO!
