Chapter 66 - Enter together

As Jasmine looked at Gary walking towards her, I could see the fear being reflected in her eyes.

Jasmine nervously smiled, "How about we just forget about everything that happened, you can forget that I was ever here."

Monk sighed with relief, but Gary wasn't finished though as he continued to walk towards her.

"Do you really think it's going to be that easy? All we did was talk about breaking the rules, we didn't actually do anything yet. I hardly think we would be punished for this and you tried to threaten us."

Jasmine glanced towards the door as if she was looking at the chance to escape, I and Monk had already anticipated this and were standing firm by the door. Her eyes then danced around the room looking to see if there was anywhere she could escape.

"Wait, look I'm sorry I was in here, I promise I won't tell anyone."

The fact that Jasmine hadn't tried escaping meant she knew that the three of us could take her. I also checked with my dragon eyes skill, her Aura wasn't that powerful either. But she was skilful in using the black sash skills. So skilful that she managed to avoid detection form me.

Gary started to smile, "Why don't you come with us?"

"And break the school rules, but there are criminals down there?" She said.

"That's what they say but who knows what's actually down there, perhaps that is just a cover for something else. if we see any trouble will turn back." Gary said

I didn't think there was a chance that Jasmine would accept this, even if we were threatening her she didn't think we would actually kill her, did she?

"When should we go?" She said while stepping forward and looking at the plan written out on the floor.

"Honestly ever since coming to this academy, I've been curious about that red door. but we can't tell anyone about this, agreed." She said.

We all nodded in agreement.

"Okay, the plan starts tomorrow, we all have the day off tomorrow with the meeting going on so it's perfect," Gary said.

"Actually I don't have tomorrow off, I have to be... " Jasmine stopped mid-sentence and then continued.

"Don't worry I can make it, I've been practising to blend with the shadows and I'm fairly good with it now. This is a good opportunity to test my skills."

Gary then put his hand out with his palm facing the ground. "come on let's all agree to do this together."

The rest of us then put our hands on top of each other, on the count of three we all lifted it with a cheer.

As we split way's with Jasmine I couldn't help but think why did she agree to help us. She had agreed far too quickly, perhaps she was working for Sir K to spy on us or maybe one of the other master knights. Or maybe she would tell the knights of our plan and betray us when we reached the red door.

Gary wasn't stupid so surely he had thought of this. When I went to look at Gary I noticed he was staring at her intently as if he was dazed.

"I don't trust her, maybe it should just be us three," I said.

"Don't worry, trust me Jasmine is good. really good" Gary said while smiling.

"I don't trust her at all!" Monk shouted. "You're clearly thinking with your bottom half of your body Gary."

Gary's face went bright red and went to kick Monk, but Monk avoided it.

The next day when training had ended the four of us had met up just outside the Academy. It was a full moon today.

We were all wearing our black sash gear.

Light armour for ease of movement, a back hooded cloak to cover our faces and soft leather boots to silence our footsteps.

Gary took the lead as we entered the area where the red door lay. Gary peered around the corner of the hall, then motioned for the rest of us to follow him.

While moving we stayed in the dark shadows as much as possible. Each of us was able to cloak our appearance using the shadows but Jasmine was the best out of all of us. Every time she would activate her shadow skill it was as if she wasn't even there.

I started to think again, what if she was sent by Sir K? or even someone else. When we had finally reached the red door we were all surprised.

There was no one guarding the door. The door was located a floor beneath the actual academy, and lead even further down underground. It was a place ment for the deadliest of criminals and was to be guarded at all times. But right now there stood no one.

As the four of us approached the red door with caution, alarm bells started ringing through my head. This must be a trap, but my dragon eyes skill could detect no one.

"It's time for you to do you, thing Monk," Gary said.

Monk went towards the lock on the red door and pulled out a keychain full of small tools to begin his work.

"You two lookout by the staircase in case anyone comes down here." Gary pointed towards me and Jasmine.

I didn't mind this as it allowed me to keep my eye on her. While watching jasmine I didn't notice anything out of the ordinary and she seemed to be just as worried as the rest of us.

Finally, after a minute or two monk was Succesful in unlocking the red door.

Gary opened the door with no hesitation and called on all of us to quickly enter.

As we all stepped forward behind the red door, Gary shut the door behind us.

It was pitch black inside and nothing could be seen. A musty damp smell wafted in my nose.

Gary then pulled out a circular object with a crystal embedded in the middle. Gary tapped the object and an orange light surrounded all of us.

The light allowed us to see only a few meters ahead. When we looked in front of us all we could see was a stone stairway that descended into the darkness.
