Spelunking for a Broken Key
Jen moved into position. She was the leader of the fencing club, which pretty much meant that she was the queen of swords at school. None of them moved, they didn't hear here come up. All she could think about was needing to get to the utilahole. She got her sword out and pushed the overgrown reptile to the side, trying to move it without waking it. Unexpectedly, it lunged at her. She started to panic and sliced it's head with her sword. After that, they all awoke, and they all looked angry and hungary. The crocodiles were moving their mouths up and down, like the were waiting for a late night snack. Jen sliced the ones who tried to kill her like butter, which were pretty much all the ones in front of her. Some went away with a new sense of fear, Jen could hear the water splash as they retreated. Finally, they all started moving backward, until the ran off. The last thing she heard was a splash on the water. She then kept her sword in place on one of her belt loops. "Izzy, they should name me the new crocodile hunter."
After they left, Jen searched for the "utilahole". She went up a path when she heard a thump while she was walking, she was right on top of it. Jen then went back, got the rope, and tied it to an old wooden post. She saw a small bit of string on the end of the flashlight, she held it with her teeth. She then pushed the top cover of the hole to the side. With a firm grip of the rope, she said "I'm going in." she said as clearly as she could and jumped inside.
Jen gripped the rope like her life depended on it. The inside felt like a bottomless pit from the top of the cave. "Can you make it?" She slowly slithered down the rope and looked down. The floor was six feet away from the ground. "Yeah, but barely."
When Jen got to the last bit of rope, she jumped. It wasn't a far fall, but she knew there was only one way out now, and that was getting the opener. The utilahole had the same rock work design outside it did inside. She shined her flashlight, saw a hallway to her right, and followed it. The underground paths were up to Jen's knees in lake water. When she hit a end she saw an inscription on the wall. Blocks colored white were all on the wall, with music notes on either sides. It was pretty noticeable in comparison to the brown-reddish walls. She also saw some old clay pots on shelves of the walls. She opened one, it had a blue powder inside.
"Hey Izzy, we got an issue."
"Whatever it is, we've got a bigger issue then that." Izzy said typing away on her Computer again. "Security saw a big shift of alligators move from river country and are coming over that way."
"That's pleasant." Jen said sarcastically. "Now what?"
"Now, I start using my back-up plans." She said "Listen and see how this sounds with the voice changer."
"Ladies and Gentlemen! Boys and girls!" A deep, manly voice said over the River Country intercom. It sounded like an echo in the cave. "I am pleased to announce that for your enjoyment, tonight we will show a special showing of Fantasy in the Sky, before Wishes! Our Nighttime spectacular!"
"That was good." Jen said
"That was just said to the whole Magic Kingdom and Magic Kingdom Resort area." Izzy said typing away. "I set up a device to make them think that it was done at Wilderness Lodge. All security from that area should be moving away from you, and over there."
"Have I ever mentioned how great it is to have mega hacking skills?" Jen said walking through the thick, murkey water.
"Because this is totally how I expected to do on a Friday night." Izzy said joking. Jen then heard a loud static coming from her ear. Izzy was starting to break up. "Jen... I... Power loss...I can't... Jen... JEN?" Then a loud beep came into her ear. The connection was gone.
Jen looked at the stars again. She started to hear music from Fantasy in the Sky. She knew Izzy said that she could manipulate the intercom, what she didn't know was that she could manipulate the firework machines. She then started to hear in the background "The Second Star to the Right, shines in the night for you."
"Music! It has to involve that!" She opened the other clay pots seeing other powders all different colors.
"Color... What songs involve color?" She said to herself. "Wait a second! She said grabbing a pot.
"Red." She said while putting the dust on the block, it was sort of like painting. "Yellow, green, red, blue, blue, blue!" After those colors were on the walls she started to hear a squeak. The wall was turning. "Red, purple, green, yellow, orange, red! Red!" The wall kept turning around, like a secret entrance. She then repeated the pattern until there were a few more blocks left. "Blend them up and what do you get? Cerise, chartreuse, and aquaMauve, beige, and ultramarine and every color in between! Hazo ka li ka no cha lum bum! Color has it's harmony and just like I have said. Red, yellow, green, red, blue, blue, blue, Red, purple, green, blue, purple, red! Red!"
The wall then turned fully into another room that was completely dark. Jen shined light and saw a stairway in the middle of the room, leading to the thing she wanted – The opener. She ran so fast you could hear a slush of water from her feet every millisecond. She quickly went up the steps, the opener was being held up by a tweezers contraption. There was moldish gunk on it, but it being metal, it was easily removed when Jen wiped it off. She put it in her pocket and looked for a way out. She then heard a buzz from her ear again.
"Jen!" Izzy said frantically. "Are you alright? I just got my power back on in my house! It was the weirdest thing!"
"I'm fine." Jen said "I got the opener."
"Well, it sounded like you got it pretty easily!"
"Yeah, I was expecting there to be-" Just then the contraption shot up in the air by a huge spout of water.
"What was that?" Izzy asked.
"Izzy I need you to find where I am?" Jen heard some typing coming from the other end for several minutes.
"I... Can't... Find anything!" Izzy said "Can you get out?" Jen started taping the walls, even the wall she came in, the were thick and solid.
"I figured out the the booby trap."
"What?"
"The booby trap was set when I took the opener. The whole cave is going to go underwater. I'm going to drown." She said as the water was rising vanishing each step it encompassed. The system started breaking up again.
"Jen... Jen...JEN!" Izzy said until the earpiece started to break up once again.
