Their pleas for help became clearer with each page. With each page I gave them they grew stronger, they pleaded louder for me to bring more pages. "Bring me the BLUE pages, yes the blue pages. Don't listen to my BROTHER, for he is a LIER and a TRAITOR!" Achenar's fiery temper and almost insanity was almost intolerable. He had that insane laugh whenever he exploded, as if to seem angelical, he was insane.
His brother was a lot smoother in his pleas, "bring me the Red pages, not the blue you can leave the blue, please bring me the red pages, free me from this horrible prison!" but smooth and sly is the way of evil.
I could hardly decipher the cries for help at first, the faces and voices obscured by the destruction of the books. "Bring…blu…ages…blue…the blue…my broth…ple…the blu…" but now it was almost completely clear as most of the pages had been found. They saw me more clearly, they told me they did between there pleas.
I remember clearly picking up a blue page and seeing Sirrus appear in a globe. "Why do you bring pages for my brother? Remember the RED pages…" his image faded as my heart beat faster then a race horse. I had run from that place, running back from the Tree Age to place the blue page into the blue book.
It was almost over…there was one page left. "Now in the fireplace there is a code, look in the book on the shelf they have the codes. It code number 143…" it went fuzzy, "but there is a book also, don't touch the book for it is a trap placed there by my father. Now my father…don't touch the book! Bring me the last page…not my brother to me!" both brothers ordered the same thing. Open the fireplace, take the page to THEM, don't touch the book, don't give it to the other.
Red or Blue? Red or blue Neo… I laughed, why is it always red or blue?
I looked through the books on the shelf; I finally found the right one. I was partially burned pages delicate to the touch, there was the code. I took the book carefully.
I toughed the painting on the wall, the bookcases moved creating a hallway, the door on the other side turned into a fire place. I crawled into the tiny space, moving my body into a crouch. Once inside I pressed the red switch, and then pressed correct squares, double checking them from the book. Metal scraping, loud and blaring. Then I stood up and turned.
There was the white page, the last page. The page that would free one or the other brother from there eternal prison; whichever one I choose. And above in the book, the book they had warned me about. The book that THEY said was a trap.
It was the only thing they had agreed on, do double positives make a negative? Two brothers, one choice. That was bad enough, but throw this in with the mix, almost too much. Choose Sirrus, choose Sirrus, whispered my mind, no choose Achenar, he may be insane but he isn't so slimy. Sirrus or Achenar? Or this book?
What harm has a book done to you so far? Said another part of me, nothing only shown you more then you could ever imagine. My split mind was driving me insane…which should I choose??? The book holds more truth, more then you could ever imagine.
There was a feeling of truth coming from the book. The answer to everything, each brother blamed there imprisonment on the other, it was greed. My mind was spinning, the book take the book…
I had decided prison or no it was going to be the book.
I took a deep breath, grasped the heavy cover and lifted.
