It is mostly dark, although light from the sanctuary seeps through various cracks in the altar’s old masonry.

The cousins sit as quietly as they can, not daring to move, as shadows move on the other side of the altar’s secret entryway. Now they hear Gerard and the priest mumbling and searching, clearly confused and irritated.

Clifton stifles a laugh. Never has he had more fun than this! Well, maybe. But this is certainly in the top three.

When the shadows finally move away, Monique exhales a sigh of release. Never has she been more nervous in her entire life. Just as she’s about to turn to her trouble-making cousin, he suddenly points behind them.

“Look there!” he whispers excitedly.

Monique follows his pointing finger—a finger that is barely illuminated by the light seeping in through the cracks. She sees it too: stairs that wind down into the floor itself, stairs that are hidden by the altar.

“I betcha no one’s been down there for a hundred of years.”

“And it can be another hundred years, for all that I care.”

“C’mon, Mon. Where’s your sense of adventure?”

“There is no way I’m going down those stairs.”

“Suit yourself. You can just deal with your dad alone.”

And with that, Clifton eases forward, and down into the dark opening, his feet alighting on the first step.

A moment later, he disappears.

Monique, chewing her lip, looks at the stone opening, considers her options, looks back at the dark hole, then says, “Wait for me!”
