[QUOTE="talien, post: 4056671, member: 3285"] [b]The End of Paradise: Part 7 – The Loading Dock[/b] “Everybody out!” shouted Hammer. The volunteers at the Paradise looked confused. “Take a coffee break,” said Jim-Bean. “There’s a Starbucks a block from here.” Sara looked flustered. “You’re not shutting us down are you?” “Not yet,” said Blade. “Look.” She handed out tickets. “You’re all invited to attend opening night.” “It will have to pass inspection first,” said Archive seriously. “Of course, of course! But we’ve invested so much money and time…I’d hate to see all that work wasted.” “So would we,” said Hammer. “Now if you don’t mind, we’d like an hour to inspect the place.” Sara nodded, unconvinced. “Of course.” As the volunteers left and the double doors in the lobby slammed with a note of finality, Hammer locked it behind them. “Now, let’s find out what this place is really about. I’ll check out the stage, you guys check out the basement.” They split up. Hammer slipped behind the stage curtains. It was pitch black. There was no light, except what leaked in around the curtains. He could see a large sliding door. A flickering light in the doorway caught his attention. Drawing closer, Hammer could see a dim image: a dark space walled by curtains. Beyond the curtains was a flickering light that seeped in at the edges, like that of an old movie. He took another step forward… And bumped into a smooth, unyielding surface of polished glass. The dock door had a massive mirror propped up against it. Hammer looked over his shoulder. He heard the sounds of a crowd outside. “Who the hell is making all that noise?” He ran out to investigate.
