CHAPTER ELEVEN

Theresa immediately rushed at the door, pounding on it with her fist, yelling for Seraphine to come back.

Before long, a hand fell on her shoulder.

She turned with her flaming purple torch to cast light on Lafayette whose face was grave with defeat. As though he had already given up.

“She has to come back!” Theresa shrieked. “She can’t leave us here!”

“Try telling her that,” Lafayette said motioning to the Necromancer.

Portia put a hand to the wall behind her and gradually made her way off the floor. Since the door being closed, the barrier had also come down. They were now at each other’s mercy.

“I don’t suppose you could use magic to…” Theresa began.

“Who? Me?” Portia replied. “If I could break that door down do you think I’d still be here?”

“Oh crap,” Theresa said. She turned to Lafayette. “You know, I don’t see a toilet in here. How do we –”

“They hose the cells down once a week,” Portia explained. “The waste winds up in a drain somewhere.”

“And I suppose they hosed you down today then?” Lafayette asked.

“That would be correct.”

“If we don’t get out of here now,” Theresa said, “things are going to get very messy in here soon.”

“All right, let’s not talk crazy,” Lafayette said. He walked up to the door and banged his fist against it. Felt around. “Seems pretty tight. How often do they open that door just out of curiosity?”

“You mean apart from hosing the place down?” Portia replied. “Well, not often. And when it opens you better be behind the barrier or that’s when the pain really starts –”

“We’re not staying in here for a week,” Theresa argued. “That’s crazy talk. Lafayette. You must be able to open the door.”

“I’m thinking about it,” Lafayette said. “I’ll let you know when something comes.”

“Is this torch of any use?” Theresa asked. “Can’t one of you use it to melt the locks or something?”

“We could try,” Lafayette said.

“Well here.” She handed him the torch.

Lafayette moved his open palm over the door. Searching for the hollow point.

He stopped when he thought he’d found it, and bent down on his knees. He lowered the torch against the door. Glanced back. “Can you help at all?”

Portia walked over. She uttered some mystical words and waved her fingers towards the flame.

Theresa watched as it began to seem into the cracks beneath the door. They waited breathlessly as the searing metal began to heat up.

“Is it working?” Theresa asked anxiously.

“I don’t know,” Lafayette said.

There was a snap.

He looked back at her, grinning. “Well, I’m feeling better about this –”

Suddenly a large flash of water showered through the room as a sprinkler in the ceiling was activated. The torch was consequentially snuffed out.
