Ah, this girl is dreaming.

  Her sleeping face suddenly

  shows discomfort.

  I back away, going through

  the door which is locked

  from the outside.

  The hallway is empty and

  quiet.

  I proceed to walk until I

  come face to face with

  a dark shadow.

  "We have work to do."

  It tells me.

  "Yes we do. What's the

  plan?"

  I question the shadow.

  The shadow leads

  me to the mansion's

  library.

  On a reading table,

  there's a red plain

  book with the only

  title called,

  Cast the Die.

  It's written in golden

  letters.

  I've read this book

  before.

  The shadow opens

  the first page.

  It's all blank though.
