Drawing in a deep breath, Mira reminded herself of how little she knew about this place and even about the ducks. She had seen them play hockey, and she knew they sometimes fought crime, but all of this was a mystery to her. I'm not getting answers hiding in here, she decided.

Mira stood up and unlocked the door. She listened for a moment and then opened it. There was the blue room with its door still ajar across the hall. And all in the corridor seemed quiet and still.

Slipping out of the room, Mira tried to walk with light and soft footsteps to the end of the corridor. When she reached the stairs, she leaned out and looked for any dangers. She still wasn't sure she wanted to meet with whatever had made those terrible noises.

Mira took wary and careful steps as she tried to move quickly down to the main floor. Perhaps she could find the ducks here and ask them what was going on. Surely they must have heard the noises too.

The dancing light on a far wall some yards away from the steps reminded Mira that she had last seen Duke in the dining hall. Perhaps he was still there.
