Ok I’m going to be Lesli because she’s basically just a better version of me 😂 I think you guys know what she looks like but basically overalls and a red sweater, blond hair in double french braids.
I reach forwards through the small tunnel, slowly pulling myself up towards the pinhole of light at the exit. I pause, feeling a bead of sweat roll down towards my eyes. To bothered with the claustrophobic tunnel and a sharp piece of rock scraping against my leg, I push myself forwards again. Letting out another breath, I fall against the wall again.
And how long did they say this tunnel was?
I look up, noticing the end of a ladder.
Yes! That will make things easier.
Gripping the bottom rung of the ladder, I feel my hands protest against it’s harsh weathered metal. Heaving, I pull myself up onto the ladder. I slowly make my way up, noticing a surprising warmth coming from the lighted area above. I slowly pull out of the musty blanket of air below, and the light grows bigger. Coming to the last rung, I find myself staring through a strange grate of sorts. I push it up, hearing the lid clatter to the floor on the other side.
“Uh… hi,” A girls voice comes from the other side as I poke my head up. “I’m Esther. What’s your name?”
“Oh uh..” I look around dumbly at the lighted room. “Lesli.”
Pulling myself out, I wipe my grimy hands again my overalls and swipe sweat from my forehead, likely spreading the dirt further.
“Where are we?”

Welcome to the present tense club!
XD I started writing in present tense because I knew it was what I wanted for my book, It took awhile to stop saying ‘said’.

AHHHHH
WE SCREAM (NOT FOR ICE CREAM) BUT BECAUSE OF MATH
"And so I left this world just as I had entered it. Confused."
I half-smile. “I have no idea. Looks like a library of some sort…”
I turn to the shelf closest to me and run my finger over the binding of the books. I suddenly gasp and yank a book from the shelf.
“The Endoxos Trilogy?!” I cry, flipping open the cover. But I soon slam it shut, noticing that it contains more than the just the first book. The next two are just mere ideas in my head, last thing I knew. I shove it back on the shelf. I’ll wait until I write it to find out what happens. No point in spoiling it for myself.
Noticing Lesli giving me an odd look, I blush and smile sheepishly. “Sorry. I just saw that my unpublished and even unwritten trilogy is on the shelf. I think there’s something special about this library.”
Lesli nods in agreement. She starts to muse the shelf as well.
“So,” I say with a twinkle in my eye. “Wanna explore this library?”
Sounds good!

@esther-c All right, cool!

Shiloh
…Candle?
No. A whole chandelier. The whole kit and caboodle.
Shiloh got up, stumbling a little when she found that she had never been sitting on anything in the first place. It was as if her room had vanished into the clouds, leaving her in the imaginary world she had always seen in the corners of her eyes.
It was a library, no doubt about it. And as most libraries go, it looked amazing.
“Where…” She rubbed her head, then tripped over something and landed on the floor, knees and elbows first.
Nope. Still very, very alive. But what had she tripped over?
For a moment, she could barely believe her eyes. Then she whooped, eyes flashing, with defiance at everything un-dashing, un-awesome, and un-cool.
For strapped to side of her waist, was a long, silver rapier.

Sorry, y’all. I have to skedaddle now. It was fun and I can’t wait ‘til next week!
If the others are okay with it, you can step in now, if you’d like.
