When Silas toldhe knew of a place for us to go, I was expecting something fancy or perhaps something that was more... elegant, marble, and who knows what else. What I wasn't expecting though was for him to take us to an old brick building with broken windows Pollux, Trixie, and Sansa decided to stay behind and snoop around the school to see if they could find anything that might be useful. With them looking around, no one would suspect them for doing anything, me, however, they would.

Yet, even though they were busy looking for information, I wished they were here with me. I wanted Pollux to see this building, to see how beautiful and strange the land around it was. One thing about my brother that no one knew butwas his love for history-a love for the past because the past makes us stronger.

The building remindedof old ruins of castles in a way with its intricate archways and carved designs within the stone. I couldn't help myself when I passed them to reach out and let my fingers brush against the ancient markings. My mind wandered to who these people must have been because it was far older than anything here now.

"Where are we?" I asked softly, my eyes turning to Silas, who smiled down atwith amusement. As if he knew a million secrets and wanted to tellbut didn't know how.

"This is a structure from another realm, one that we no longer speak of because of the battle that commenced there thousands of years ago," he replied as he gazed up at the structure running his own hands against the broken rock. "During the battle, they sought to escape and when the portal was opened, it moved the earth they stood on and anything else around." "Who is they?" I asked curiously, trying to understand how anyone could be so powerful that they could move all this earth and even structures.

Silas chuckled though as he glanced back at me. "You don't know any of the stories, do you?" I wasn't sure why he was amused bynot knowing the stories of this place, and shaking my head, he pushed open the large wooden and brass door before us. The creek of the wood echoed against the silent air around Silas and me. I found myself stepping into a hall of darkness filled with cobbled steps and cobwebs.

Silas moved forward down the cobbled steps further into the darkness, and I hesitated for a moment took a deep breath and forced myself forward. One thing people didn't know aboutwas the internal fear I had of darkness. Not that anyone would suspect it-I hid my fears very well.

"Silas." I called out into the darkness having lost him in my delay as I reached the bottom step. My eyes strained to see through the black void that filled my vision in front of me. "Silas?" "Over here!" The dim lighting of a torch coming into view as he caround a corner, and once again I was able to see his smiling face. "Con, what are you doing?" What am I doing? Jesus, like I meant to get lost.

"Nothing, right behind you," I replied, pushing a smile onto my face as I watched him turn, my steps right behind his. There was no way I was going to allow myself to get lost in this place again.

After a few minutes of walking, we
