…
So there the gang were clustered outside a monumentally huge building sectioned off into rooms and corridors, vast grand hall like stairwells glittering in the sun from inside the building.
It’s patterned silver and light green glassy exterior hinting at the subtleties within and yet still managing to keep it looking modern. They way all new buildings do these days shining chrome, blue silver and that weird greenish glass that seems so popular now.
Stared did they mouth agape in awe until their thoughts were fragmented with the whispered words “neat”. All their attention was drawn to the huge steel doors made to resemble a castle gateway.
Now the group knew each other well being friends, but none of them could remember why they were there just that they were and it was dazzling but more importantly they didn’t know what was inside and the door/ gateway was wide open.
Spyke shifted over to it with the uneasy crouch and stooped back posture he always assumed when he thought something was up and he should get ready to run. His black ish red mop like hair popped around the door way and he peered about inside.
To him it seemed it was clear, empty unused and yet clean in perfect order. He could see long corridors and normal but slightly exaggerated stairwells, he could see colours at one end of one corridor and gleaming walls at the other. Pursing his lips he turned around to wave at the group and fell over with a start to the realisation they were right behind him!
“Spyke you Muppet” was uttered in-joke and he laughed before getting hauled off the floor by Liam and Lyley. Steven holding Rosie’s hand was entranced with the ceiling, so Spyke looked up and almost fell over again. Cherubs, paintings on the ceiling coast of arms, and he hadn’t noticed it!
* * * * * * * * * * * *
As they all entered the corridor Lyley looked about and again said “wow” to himself so that no-one else could hear it. Then there was a large thump and slithering noise, like a tail dragging along the floor above them coming from the ceiling, he was pretty sure he hadn’t been the only one to here that.
* * * * * * * * * * * *
Amy quaked and did one of those things Liam loved her most for, she grabbed a hold of him and dragged herself into his warm embrace, smiled a little and said sort of innocently “did I hear something”
Liam went about the business of stroking her hair and whispering to her that it would have been nothing to worry about and she smiled at him rosed cheeks colouring a little more.
* * * * * * * * * * * *
Jess darted her way over to Ruth and grabbed her hand as a long but low rumbling tone came through the corridors and down the stairs. She turned and looked down her nose at Lyley as he muttered loud enough for them to hear “something’s up there” then turned to Spyke as he smoothly worked his way in-between the group and put a reassuring hand on his shoulder and muttered back still staring at the ceiling “no shit Sherlock” then jogged him in the arm and winked a little.
She noted Lyley did not look helped by this.
* * * * * * * * * * * *
Ruth clicked her tongue and gripped a jess’ hand a little tighter turning and calling Spyke a “bint” to which he chuckled and gave a rounding shrug of the shoulder blades.
* * * * * * * * * * * *
Rosie kicked Steven a little and he leant down to her so that she could whisper in his ear.
* * * * * * * * * * * *
Spyke strode to the front of the group and turned around announcing not to loudly but loudly enough “want to find out what that was? This place looks mint so maybe whatever that was is too?”.
He noted the shifty glances and then smiled as a Liam and Steven nodded then together the group edged their way up the stairs and onto the second floor.
