The Beacon Manor
The Beacon Manor stood silently. Shyly, Sara stared up to her papa’s kitchen but there was no familiar light burning.Outside,the tree stood in the autumn leaves and started to dance.Sara grabbed her keys out of her bag and unlocked the door.It flew open but instead of the cosy warmth that she was used to,the Manor felt freezing and damp.Inside,shadows reached into the dark unwelcoming corner.
Sara and Jack spirited upstairs and headed for her bedroom.Tiberius sniffed around seeking clues.Inside her room Sara was delighted to find everything was as she had left it when she had been sent off to boarding school.She had her books lined up on the bedside table.Her notes, fragments of stories and plans for adventures were still stuck to walls covered with faded blue wallpaper. Astonished, in the corner of her eye she saw something on the shelf.
Curious,Sara took a step closer and snached her the shelf she ran down stairs and sat at the table she was shocked she was amazed to see the Macguffin she was screaming.It was a diagram, drawn in her father’s distinctive style.It looked like a prototype of some sort.Jack ran over “what did you find” screamed Jack “tell me”. “I found a diagram that looks like a prototype,”Sara whispered.
Angrily, the door flew open and a shadow entered the room “hello my friends do you want to play a game”he whispered “ if i win i get the diagram if you win you just win. He got closer and then he snached the diagram and locked Sara and Jack in a dark room where they have never been…they searched the room but there was nothing septed from an old, damp book locked away. It was chained up with a lock but there was no way to open it.
