Hey guys I hope you like my 2nd book of "The mystery files" series and I also hope that I will have your full support in helping me. I am starting two chapters in but If you want me to email you my first book and the first 2 chapters then message me saying the previous and give me your e-mail. I will give you a very brief rundown of what's happened in my book so far and then I can get started!
So, my book starts of with the main character (Ruby) having a nightmare about seeing her friend (Mary) (doesn't sound like a nightmare right) and it’s all happy and cheerful until Ruby looks up to talk to Mary and she sees her body to be the torn up mess that it was when Ruby accidentally killed her (see I told you it was a nightmare), then to get her revenge on Ruby she pushes her from behind and Ruby starts plummeting down towards some rocks but just before she hits them she wakes up screaming in a cage sitting up near her next best friend (Dave) they chat for a while about how Dave got in Ruby's house and other friend stuff, just as they stop chatting Ruby's mum calls them for breakfast. When they finish their breakfast Ruby's mum puts the news on and after they've watched the tele Dave persuades Ruby to go check out Mary's family home. When they get there something happened to Dave (Ruby just thinks that he is really scared but what's really wrong with him is so much more) and as they walk through the abandoned house Dave semi-knocks Ruby out and pushes her down a hole and before Ruby loses consciousness all she hears is animal noises.
Lets finish this book!!
Chapter 3: The experiment
I woke up after a long time of being unconscious and I couldn't see anything apart from a lit doorway in front of me "YES ... wait escape can’t be that easy ... can it?" as I stepped towards the open door it felt like I was not going anywhere, like I was just walking in place "why can't I get out" I said to myself, it seemed like with every step I took the door got further and further away from me "WHY CAN'T I LEAVE!" I shouted so loud that someone must of heard me because lights started to turn on all around me and a male voice spoke out so loudly that it filled the room that I was in (I'm guessing it was a room because it was to big to be a cage) "that's a very good question Ruby Roberts" my eyes where still hazy from my knock out so I couldn't see who was talking but I could still hear them loud and clear "hey, how do you know my name" I said scared but trying to act tough "TELL ME HOW!" I was getting very angry now because I was super freaked out about how he knew my name (but wouldn't you be as well) "be careful Ruby that temper will get you into trouble one day ... but oh wait it already has hahahahahaha ... but if you are sooooo curious then ill put you out of your misery I am the wonderful ... Animal Keeper!" (I thought that zoo keeper sounded better but this really doesn't look like a zoo more like a science laboratory but the person can call themselves whatever they want "grate now we've got introduced to each other" I said sarcastically "can you please tell me what you do here" even though I couldn't see their face I could definitely see a menacing smile creep onto their face and hear their really annoying laugh "ha ha ha ha HA HA HA HA you'll see soon enough" as they said this I immediately knew what they did "do you, by any chance, change people into animals" it went silent for a moment (like cricket noise silent) but then a small voice spoke out "be careful you wont like him when he's angry so you best say sorry or he'll change you next ... SAY IT!" I would never say sorry to someone who has imprisoned me "I will never apologise to him! and what have you, Mr 'animal keeper'.what have you done with my friend" at that moment I realised that Dave was still above me, he was still acting weird but at least he's safe. My capture could do nothing but laugh and say "ha ha ha ha well well well do you still care about your friends after what happened to your last one ha ha ha ha ... anyway I've got an appointment to so I'll see you soon my pet ... oh and don't let your friend hit you on the way out" after an annoying few minuets of him making his speech to me he walked out of the room he was standing in, it was a glass box that looked like it was stuck to the wall like glue but it was see-through so you could still see all the rooms below, "don't walk away from me and ... wait what do you mean by don't let 'my friend' hit me on the way out" by that time the man was already out the room "RUBY!" I heard a voice right in front of me, it was a very familiar voice, my head whizzed around cautiously but excited, if anyone has found a way in here then that must mean that there's a way out ... right? "HEY over here ... who's there ... DAVE! your okay" I ran over to hug him but I was shocked at what I heard next "NO! don't come any closer I don't want to hurt you, I don't know what's wrong with me but I ..." he stopped for a second, his eyes turned bright red, his hair went over his eyes a little so he looked creepy and a smirk creeped onto his face "... I hate you Ruby, you left me all alone in that house, I was so scared why did you leave me?" I looked at, who I thought was Dave, with confusion ... why would he say something like that? " hey why would you say that, your the one who pushed me down that trap door" I was still confused but a little angry now, not at Dave but at the man who trapped us here, "Oh did I I'm sorry ha ha ha ha ha ... you know Ruby every time I hurt you and I said sorry, I didn't mean it" the way that he said the last part all sing songy tells me that the person that trapped us here did something to Dave because this was not how he normally behaves the way Dave spoke also told me that the Animal Keeper wanted to provoke me into hurting my best friend, but I didn't know that at the time and I just got angrier and angrier and it was less and less at the man and more at Dave "... at one point I wanted to kill you ... yeah I said it ... how does it feel to know that your friend could and would kill you at any moment" after that I didn't say any more, because if I did it would not solve anything and it would just anger me more, so instead I rushed forward ( not to hug him this time but to hurt him, just like 'the keeper' wanted), with my eye's fiery red with anger, revenge in my mind and my fist ready to harm my friend my moral judgement was over run with anger and hatred "NO RUBY! you will get hurt" I didn't listen to my good friend I was too busy blinded by rage at the person (or thing) that had taken over him "YOU SHUT UP, YOU DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT ME!" suddenly I felt a shot of pain go up my leg, I looked down to see what stabbed me on the leg "its a needle! but what's that green liquid!?" I was still really angry but now I suddenly got really scared and confused " ha ha ha ha ha Oh its just something that me and 'the keeper' created, you'll find out what it dose in about 2 hours ha ha ha ha ... well I've got to get going, see you soon Ruby and good night" I looked at the person in front of me with disgust, sadness, fear and anger building up inside me (this person obviously wasn't my friend because he wouldn't say the stuff this person said to me would he?) "wait! what do you mean by 'good night' I'm not going to sleep" I had so many emotions in my head at this moment I didn't know what to feel "he he he he" he giggled mischievously this wasn't like him at all 'who or what has taken over my best friend' I through "he he Oh you will and what's going to happen to you is going to be precious, anyway I've got to go , bye he he he" he knocked on the door twice, it opened and just as quick as he was here he was gone, "why ... why would he say stuff like that *sniff*" I was so sad, I was trapped in some science laboratory and now my best friend has turned against me ... wait why do I feel so ... sleepy all of a sudden" I felt really sleepy and my eye's felt really heavy then I realised it was the green liquid that "evil" Dave injected me with (I'm calling him that now until I save him) "no I'm not ... going ... to sleep ... something ... bad will ... happen" at that point I couldn't stay awake any longer, my eye's got heavier and heavier and I slipped deeper and deeper into sleep until I couldn't fight it any more. I must have been asleep for a long time because it was starting to turn dark out side and it wasn't long before I heard someone call me "Ruby wake up its me Dave" I didn't want to open my eye's just in case it was 'evil'Dave playing a trick on me "If you are the real Dave tell me something only he would know" I just needed to make sure it was him and not 'evil' Dave or 'the keeper' trying to lure me into a trap "well okay but I'll have to make it quick ... ummmmm ... every night you turn into an animal that's why you have a cage in your basement" I was so relived when I herd this "OMG Dave!" I opened my eye's " your okay, what happened to you" I said this with tears in my eye's "snap out of it Ruby I can't tell you right now but I can tell you that I have found an escape route but it's very far if we're quick we can get to it before ... oh no not again ... don't be scared Ruby ..." "no Dave don't go yet I need you to tell me where the escape route is" but it was too late he already turned into 'evil' Dave ( yes I know its not a very exciting name but it's the only name I could come up with under the circumstances ) "Oh so you were planning to escape were you ... well I guess we'll have to bring our little experiment forward an hour ... KEEPER!" I thought 'oh no I guess the evil Dave can hear me even when it's good Dave speaking to me "WHAT IS IT! Oh its you David what do you want" I covered my ears because I didn't want to hear what terrible fate was coming my way, I think a few minuets passed by before Dave finally turned to talk to me "Oh not listening are we ha ha ha ha foolish girl but I guess its for the bestit will give you more of a shock later ha ha ha ha ha" as he walked away laughing I couldn't help thinking about what he meant by me "getting a shock" and a "little experiment" I was scared, afraid, terrified but no matter how scared I was I needed to toughen up (for Dave's sake) and just see what "the animal keeper" had in store for me. Just then as I was lost in thought, two glass tubes rose up from the floor in front of me with two big plate on two big podiums in the middle of them, one was full of raw meat "ewwww I'm not eating that, I know I'm a prisoner but come on that's just mean" and the other plate was full of "WOW! meat pie, mash and peas now we're talking" I reached over to gorge myself on the delicious goodies in front of me but something stopped me "wait! don't eat that plate of food " said a voice " why I'm hungry and that pie is calling my name" I said this in a sing songy voice "well don't listen!" the voice said angrily "if you eat that food, delicious or not, you will turn into an animal" "oh is that all" I said bluntly "it won't effect me ... who are you anyway strange voice?" there was a long pause 'tap tap tap tap tap tap' then I heard a faint tapping and squawking in the room next to mine (I could hear and see what it was because the rooms were separated by a huge sheet of glass "Hey! up here" I looked up and I saw a parrot "hello I am Pete and I have been here 5 years" he squawked "oh your Pete Wellington the boy that went missing after he finished playing football with his friends" I couldn't believe I had found a missing person "I will be laybled a hero for finding you" I said, at least I could be happy about that "whoa whoa whoa I don't think my folks would want to see me like this" Pete said gesturing to the whole of his body "oh right yeah" my smile disappeared "anyway, why won't the food effect you" Pete said inquisitively "well I can't tell you now its kind of a long story so just forget it for now" I was reluctant to tell him until I found a cure for my curse (I won't say its a gift because it can hurt people so its not really helpful) so I don't want anyone (other that Dave) to know what's wrong with me "I'm Ruby by the way" I thought it was about time to introduce myself because we had been talking for a while now and Pete doesn't even know who I am "Oh hi! nice to meet you but we have little time before he realises that I am planning to escape" Pete said under a hushed voice "but my friend has already got a plan to escape this place" I said very proud "well I'm sorry to say this but your friend's gone ... well the one you knew any way" Pete said all mysterious, I wish people would just tell me what happened to Dave without being so cryptic about it but if someone has a plan to escape I can't complain "so come on Pete what's your plan" I said interested but I couldn't help feeling guilty about leaving Dave, if I had left without him he would be stuck in this place working for a master with a monster ego and trapped in a body ruled by an evil version of himself, so I couldn't leave him but some how I would find a way to take him with us "well we're going to dig ..." Pete was interrupted by circus music and "the animal keeper" speaking over a intercom "Ladies and Gentlemen, Children and esteemed guests "as he started talking there was a mechanical whirring sound and then all four walls of the lab started to rise up and disappear into the ceiling of a much bigger room, it was decorated with a mix of circus tent and medevil castle "where are we?... do you know Pete?" I got no answer from him "hello?!..." 'come to think of it' I thought 'everyone has been acting strange ever since that music started' as I was thinking about why everyone was ignoring me, "the animal keeper" continued to speak to the audience which was seated all around the massive building "Welcome everybody to circus contend"
So, my book starts of with the main character (Ruby) having a nightmare about seeing her friend (Mary) (doesn't sound like a nightmare right) and it’s all happy and cheerful until Ruby looks up to talk to Mary and she sees her body to be the torn up mess that it was when Ruby accidentally killed her (see I told you it was a nightmare), then to get her revenge on Ruby she pushes her from behind and Ruby starts plummeting down towards some rocks but just before she hits them she wakes up screaming in a cage sitting up near her next best friend (Dave) they chat for a while about how Dave got in Ruby's house and other friend stuff, just as they stop chatting Ruby's mum calls them for breakfast.
