Stuff get more violent as someone isdevoured by an animal with Amlain Endangerment. Enjoy!
E is for Emerald, Endangerment, and Eating
It was 12 minutes later when Isadora woke up. She tearfully made her way to the phone and using her logic, she dialed 7-6-6-6-8.
Violet and Klaus, who brought along some books and were reading on the bed, were interrupted by the phone ringing.
"Trap," said Sunny cautiously. The three of them looked at each other. But Klaus went up to the phone, making sure there were no string or electric wires to set a trap. He picked it up. "Hello?" he answered.
"Klaus, it's me Issy," said Isadora, on the urge of crying
Klaus sighed with relief. "What's wrong Issy? Is something wrong?"
Isadora burst into tears. "DUNCAN'S DEAD! HE FELL INTO THE BATHTUB FROM A TRAPEZE THING I THINK AND OUR BATHTUB IS VERY LARGE AND THE SLIDEABLE COVER TRAPPED HIM WITH NO WHERE TO GO AND HE DROWNED!" she cried and screamed at the same time.
"Oh no," said Klaus in alarm. That's horrible! Poor Duncan, should I call Quigley and tell him the news?"
"Yes!" she cried, and hung up. She threw herself onto the bed in despair.
"Duncan drowned from a trap," Klaus told his sisters. "The killer has set traps all over the place to kill us."
"No!" cried Violet. "What'll we do? We need to get out." She went to the door but found it was locked.
"Door locked?" asked Sunny in fear. Violet nodded.
"Let me call Quigley and Hector in Room 37," said Klaus and using his logic, he dialed 7-6-6-6-3-7 and told both of them the tragic news. He also told them their thought about the traps, and to watch out.
Hal was in Room 35, and was supposed to share his room with Bruce but because he died he couldn't share it with anybody. He then saw something next to the TV that was supposed to be hidden. It was a switch which said "Doors" above it, and he decided to press it, not knowing the consequences.
"Help!" yelled Esme from Room 31 on the 3rd floor, trying to turn the knob. "Help…oomph!" she said, as her door suddenly opened. She stumbled into a lion.
Quigley, who was testing a way to open the doors, suddenly fell forwards when the door opened. "I did it!" he thought out loud, but then looked down the hall at a gruesome sight. The lion had almost shredded Esme and her emerald garments, and was literally eating her to bits. Quigley stared at the site horrified and shocked at the fact that a lion had gotten into the hotel. The lion turned his head and looked at Quigley. Quigley froze.
The lion ran full force towards Quigley.
"Hector!" he screamed as he went back into the room. As he was closing the door, the lion was pushing against him, trying to get in. "Help me!" he cried, as the lion scratched through the door. The lion was overpowering Quigley in holding the door closed.
Hector appeared, shocked at first, but then helped Quigley by pushing against the lion, and he managed to get the door closed and locked. As the lion kept thumping against the door, they put objects in front of it to stop the lion. A few minutes later the lion seemed to give up.
Quigley slumped to the floor in exhaustion. "I don't know how the lion got here," he said, "But I do know that Esme is dead. She was eaten."
Hector's eyes widened. "Another death?" he asked. "The lion's behavior is showing the sign that the killer is using Amlain endangerment, like we used to do with the crows."
"But wait," said Quigley. "Duncan, Esme, Arthue Poe, and Bruce? It's like the alphabet, which is so strange."
"I think you're right," said Hector. "But I think it's a coincidence."
Mr. Remora was watching his Banana Program on the TV when he heard a roar in front of his door. "Hello?" he said, and went over to the door and opened it. One look at the lion made him shut the door in confusion.
"Holy Banana!" he gasped. "Was that a lion?"
Meanwhile, Hal decided to open his door, thinking that the switch had opened them. As he opened it, he saw the lion and bits of shred and blood in the hallway. He quickly closed it and turned off the switch, locking all the doors on the 3rd floor. "My gosh!" he exclaimed, not sure what had happened.
