Disappearing Act Chapter 10
Gabriella, Ryan, and Chad wandered through the curvy hallways of the castle hoping that the shadow would appear once again to lead them in the right direction. They walked through the deserted halls for several minutes before they saw the shadow again. It starred at them for a second and then turned around. They followed quickly in order to get in and out before Hernandez could find out what what happening. She lead them right to the door and then disappeared. Ryan hurried and unlocked the door and the three of them ran in and shut the door behind them. The room didn't look like the others, in the aspect that it was not colorfully decorated and did not have odd or interesting objects all around. In fact it looked out of place compared to the rest of the castle. It was a very dull room. The bed was small and had gray covers over it. The walls were painted off white and the carpet was black. There was a small dresser and a night stand, but the rest of the room was empty.
"This is his old room?" Chad asked. "It seems to plain to be his room."
"Yeah, but he could have been lying when he said it was his room." said Ryan.
"Thats true!" said Chad walking over to the dresser. He opened the top drawer to find a few old looking suits and ties. He moved all of the clothes to see if their was anything else besides the clothes but he found nothing.
"This stuff looks like it's century's old." said Gabriella.
"Yeah, its really strange." said Chad. He opened the second door that just had a bunch of old socks in it and a pair of old shoes.
"Why would anybody keep all of this." said Gabriella looking in the drawer.
"It could mean something to somebody." said Ryan. Chad opened the third drawer that was filled with papers and a couple photographs. He picked up one of the pieces of paper and read it out loud.
I don't know why you have changed so much Alejandro. It has only been three months since the last time we talked, but I feel as if I am talking to a stranger. What would mother think of you if she were still alive. I hope you are taking what I am saying to heart, because I have already lost most of my family, I would hate to lose my brother too. Sincerely Hernandez.
"I didn't know Hernandez had a brother." said Ryan.
"I don't think anybody did." said Gabriella picking up one of the pictures. She suddenly stood very still.
"Gabriella, what is it?" Ryan asked.
"It's him!" she said. "The man I have been seeing, its a picture of him."
