Chapter 14

"Um," Beau said simply, looking at the wires and panel box in the small room. "You wanted to show us the power room?"

"Watch, kid," Ron winked. He went to the far right of the small room and took out one panel from the wood wall. My eyes widened when a hidden white door appeared.

"Where are you taking us?" I asked, pretending to be scared. It was all part of the act.

"I want to show you kids the guns we use to take down those we – big dogs," Ron said excitedly. He opened the door, which had a small staircase that led to another door a level down. We followed him in the dimly lit passageway to a metal door. "You’ll be amazed."

Ron opened the metal door and I cringed as the familiar smell hit me like a freight train. Each inhale burned holes in my lungs slowly. The amount of wolfs bane found in this room was enough to drain the energy from my body slowly.
