The Elemental
I could barely keep my nerves together as the time drew near for me to go on my night-time journey. I listened for the large case clock down the hall to gong the time. When it hit the first stroke of midnight, I made a beeline from my room with my canine on my heels. I could have had him stay behind, but frankly i wanted some company I did not know what we would encounter. We raced quietly up the massive staircase until we reached the very top landing. Then we snuck down the third hall and reached the last door on the right. I stared at the wood of the door, suddenly unsure of what to do. Finally, I reached out and turned the knob. It was locked. I was waiting for something in me to tell me how to proceed but nothing came to me. I tried the door again but before I could a screeching noise bursts through my ear drums as the door swings open I crept into the room my loyal canine next to me his fur was up and a low growl was emerging from his trout. It was like he was trying to me that something was not right. As we stepped fully into the room, the door shut and lock behind us if i wasn’t scared before I was know. There were tables and benches overflowing with odd devices, and parchments covering the walls in swirly handwriting. Shelves and cabinets against the walls were crammed with bottles containing different coloured liquids and jars with bits of things I did not recognize. On a high shelf there were boxes containing powders and huge books that would take me a long time to read. There was oddly shaped bottles with tubing connecting them were perched on one long table in the center of the room as I emerge this strange structure ever substance in the bottles began to bubble and boil like something or someone was controlling them.
