[QUOTE="talien, post: 3961821, member: 3285"] [b]Terror in Freeport - Part 7a: Rocks and a Hard Place[/b] They were crowded into a small room, barely ten feet high. Massive shapes, indistinguishable in the dark, were scattered about. “These are rocks,” said Beldin. They were piled up around the edges of the room, though a few boulders were lying loose on the floor. Bijoux sniffed the air. “The air smells strange.” “Chalk dust,” said Cal, sniffing beside her. Beldin spun on his heel. “That’s the same dust from these rocks!” Then the door slammed shut behind them. Sebastian whirled. “Egil, if this is a trap so help me…” but Egil was nowhere to be found. The room began to shake. The roar of machinery boomed all around them. “What the hell is that?” asked Kham. “I think I know what device Ambrose was building for the Brotherhood,” said Beldin. “The records said Verlaine diversified his holdings…” “Into masonry,” said Sebastian. “Which is what we’re about to become if we don’t get out of here fast. Everyone spread out! Find an exit!” Some rocks slid from the heaps. “The ceiling above is hinged,” said Beldin, pointing upwards with the lajatang. “It runs through the middle.” “I don’t think that’s an exit,” said Vlad. The machinery roared louder. The room heaved and rock piles collapsed all around them. “I hate to share this,” said Beldin at the far end of the room, “but this wall is hinged too.” “So?” shouted Kham, to be heard over the din of the machinery. “That’s not the bad news,” Beldin shouted back. The flat of his palm was against the wall. “There’s something big and heavy pounding on the other side.” [/QUOTE]
