Nina

"Nina... You found it."

The book sat on the floor between us, devoid of the bright white light that it had only just been emanating a moment ago. Tyler and I gasped at one another, utterly shocked by what had just happened.

I blinked at him. "What?" I asked. "You knew about this book?"

He nodded, then paused a moment, pursing his lips. "Well, sort of," he said. "Wait here a minute."

Without another word, he slipped out of the room and disappeared, leaving me standing there feeling utterly dumbfounded. A minute later, he returned with something in his hands and held it out to me.

A book.

Upon taking it and beginning to flip through the pages, my eyes widened. Pages upon pages of letters and phrases stared up at me, each one linked to a specific symbol. And where had I seen those symbols before?

In the leatherbound journal.

"Tyler, where did you-"

"I found this cipher in the library a couple of weeks back," he explained slowly, "I didn't know what it went to, but I've been searching for it ever since. And... I don't know, but when I saw the book in your hands, I just knew."

I gulped, unsure of how to respond. So he felt it, too-as if the book was speaking to him in a strange sort of way. No, not speaking to him, but rather... feeling to him.

Slowly, I bent down and gingerly prodded at the book that was laying on the floor. Nothing happened when I touched it; no bright light, no invisible force, nothing. Feeling certain now that it was safe, I picked it up and stood again.

Tyler and I were both silent as we walked over to the desk. I laid the book down and opened the pages, and lo and behold, the symbols were in fact the exact same as those in the cipher. Tyler gasped softly as he peered over my shoulder.
