He threw me a silly wink and left on his hoverboard. Weird kid. "Come on cupcake" I heard Dylan say behind me before I pushed the library doors open.

Kathrena asked, and we fell into step, all three of us, as we turned off the main street and onto one of the smaller, cobbled lanes that rounded towards the Hawthorn Central Library. “Let’s speak to Herb first. I’ll tell you when we’re settled inside.” The library was quiet as we filed in, and dust rose thick in the air, motes spinning through the slanted, grey light. There was an aura of ancient eyes watching us, today: something mystical, something magical, and it was curious, too.

Grand Old Master Yorks said with a dark complexion, "Must he mess up the place when he’s just here to steal books? Look how exhausted my apprentices are because of him…” After making a mock expression of concern, Grand Old Master Yorks asked, "What’s missing?" The librarian replied timidly, “The register is missing, Grand Old Master.” Grand Old Master Yorks’ expression turned grim all of a sudden. "Looks like Doomsday is the reason why he’s here!” He then walked out with a sullen look on his face. Meanwhile, Jay was holding onto Zayne as he dug some cassia seeds and gathered honeysuckles before heading back.

I regretted it the moment it left my lips. The library is on the far side of the courtyard and I need to get out a book for an assignment for law class with Principal Byrne. It’s late and I wish I’d gone before dinner. Once I’m two paces from the front door of the library, I glance over my shoulder to make sure I’m just being paranoid. As I scan the courtyard, I can’t see anyone, so I continue and enter the old building. Mrs. Kendall, the aging librarian, is fast asleep behind the desk as usual as I walk past and into the vast, ancient room lined with hundreds of bookcases. They keep law books on the second floor mezzanine, which is potentially the darkest and creepiest area of this place.

With that, Chloe opened the diary again and turned the page. ______ Episode 18 – Heat in the Library The university library was a cathedral of silence, a vast, hushed space where the only sounds were the faint whispers of pages turning and the distant hum of the air conditioning. Dr. Evelyn Reed, a historian specializing in medieval texts, moved through the stacks like a ghost, her fingers tracing the spines of ancient books with a reverence that bordered on worship. She was alone in the Rare Manuscripts section, a dimly lit, climate-controlled room tucked away in the library's deepest recess. Her focus was absolute, until a presence shifted the air around her.

“Johnny get your wrinkly self over here, your stupid bell is not working again!” Icahbod frowed. “Is a woman bearing the name Johnny in this century?” “No, why would you ask that?” “You said we were coming to meet a woman.” “Oh yea, he is the one who will bring her to us, she is his daughter but you have to see the father first.” “Oh, ok.” Minutes later, Ichabod could hear a swift movement behind the shelves and out came a short man in a black tail coat and a large hat which made him look like all those wizards you see in movies like Harry Potter.
