chapter five

a hidden door

"where am I? what's going on? William where are you? can anyone hear me?" I open my eyes in a gray room with pictures everywhere and a bored that had a bunch of strange symbols I wanted to know what was going on and I went to go take a step forward and slipped and started falling into the darkness then I realized it was all just a dream at least I think it was. As my eyes started to open the sun was coming up and I noticed that there was a glass ceiling great there goes the Idea of climbing out. then there was a small circle in the ceiling I didn't think much of it so I started to look around for a way out. the only door I

saw was the one we came through last night and that was locked. William was still asleep and I was letting him sleep a little while longer so I sat down on a bench near the center of the room a few minutes later William started to wake up and noticed I was sitting

on the bench and walked over to me he started to say something when I cut him of by standing up because I saw the way that the light was shining through the circle in the ceiling was it outlined a hidden door I walked over and twisted the handle and pushed it open to reveal a large gray room with small windows around the top out of reach " come on there's another door through here" William followed me with out a word " oh yeah what were you about to say earlier before I cut you off sorry by the way, William you ok " he wasn't responding and I saw he was reading something on the wall so I walked over to see what It was to reveal that it was note saying ' to escape from this room you must solve these riddles you will find the next riddle at the end of the last one you solved here is the first riddle " the sum of 2 plus 2 will swim with you" have fun!' well that's just great now we have to solve riddles. I turned around to see pictures all over the walls. wow these are so beautiful but that help us or will they? they look so familiar wait I think I've seen them before they were in my dream now I'm really confused. just what's coming on here? " William come look at this I think I've seen these pictures in my dream could they help us with the riddles" " I don't know maybe" William replied " by the way earlier I was trying to ask you no nevermind let's just try to figure out these riddles" William said " know what what were you going to ask William please just tell me" "did you know you talk in your sleep" he replied " no what was I saying" I said curiously " well one you kept calling out my name and you said some other things but I think they were forgotten things from your past so I think we better just leave them that way. by the way what type of things were you seeing in your dream?" William asked quick to change the subject what is he hiding and how does he know about my forgotten past?
