Alex walked down the narrow passageways of the dungeons and into a small cellar. He slammed the door shut and bolted it just in case the monster returned. He then looked around the room for more information. On the right side stood a staff with a blazing purple crystal floating between 4 spikes. On the left was... nothing. Alex sighed and headed towards the staff. He picked it up and saw words cut into the metal. He peered at it more closely. This is what it read: '27, 105, 2974'. 'They're coordinates of the failed experiment' he exclaimed. He looked around quickly for more evidence. Then, he spotted it. A necklace hung around a statue. He took it carefully and studied it. It had a blue rune hanging from it. Suddenly, two cold and clammy hands clamped down on Alex's shoulders. 'AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!' screamed Alex. 'I'M TOO YOUNG TO DIEEEEE!!!!!!!!!' 'Oh brother,' said the figure behind him. Alex slowly turned around. It was Maya! The girl that had guided him around the library and told him about the monster! 'What are you doing here?' Alex asked Maya. 'What are YOU doing here?' retorted Maya in a annoyed voice. 'Ummmmm...' said Alex. Alex definitely did NOT know what he was doing down in the dungeons. 'Are you trying to find that monster?' asked Maya, exhaling. 'Yes?' said Alex. 'Okay, this is how many people died searching for the Beast of Black,' said Maya. 'One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten...' (I will not write everything she said because she took an awfully long time). 'Five hundred and fifty-five, five hundred and fifty-six' said Maya. 'STOP STOP STOP STOP STOP STOP!!!!!!!!' shouted Alex for the 15th time. 'Fine,' said Maya, turning to Alex. Suddenly, *click*! The floor under Maya and Alex opened and the fell for a terrifying 1 second. Alex screamed all the way down. 'AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!' screamed Alex. 'Oh brother,' said Maya.
