*meanwhile, at the abandoned NEU headquarters*
So this
place is really abandoned now?
*looks
around the area* Yeah, I'd say so. With President NEU gone, there
is nothing left.
Well, there
are still a lot of documents here... and neat gadgets.
Don't
touch anything.
*picks up a
seringe* Hey look at me *pretends to draw blood from his arm* I'm
donating blood.
Dude! Put
that down! That's an enima seringe!
... *looks
at it and then drops it* Eeeeeeeeew!!! Where's the nearest sink?
*looks
around* I don't know if they have a sink.
They have
to, this place is spotless. Everything is so organized.
What
floor are we on? This place has so many basement levels.
Well...
according to the number 9 over there, I'd think we're in the 9th
basement.
*continues
looking* You see any more sets of stairs leading downward?
Nope. *looks
by a bookshelf* Hey, what's this? *picks up a piece of paper*
*walks
over to Crys* What did you find?
A piece of
paper.
Does it
have anything written on it?
A-N-J-E-M-A.
What does that mean?
Crys...
look by that bookcase where you just found that paper.
What about
it?
It is a
bit away from the wall. Perhaps it moves.
I'll find
out. *starts pushing on the bookshelf, which then slides,
revealing a locked door and a keypad* Wow!
A locked
door. But... the keypad. It's alphabetic.
So?
Crys... I
have a funny feeling. Usually only things of the highest security
require a alphabetic keypad.
You've
really got to stop watching those investigating shows.
What was
the writing on that paper again?
*reads it*
A-N-J-E-M-A.
*punches
in A-N-J-E-M-A into the keypad*
*the door slides open, revealing a stairwell leading down*
Crystal!
Good job! You just found a hidden staircase! *starts going down
it*
Crys,
wait for me to turn on the...
*falls down
the stairs* Aaaaaaaaaaaaaah
...
light. I swear, you're becoming more like Orakio every day.
