"Fuck yes!" I shout as the Indigo block finally turns to a solid stone. The sun is starting to come up again, but I don't feel tired as I proudly stare at what was once bookshelves in front of me. With a proud smile I leave the library and head to my bedroom where I find a large box at the foot of the bed. With a frown I open the box and find a jumpsuit in it with a simple note.

I take a deep breath before snatching the garment out of the box and going to the bathroom. After my shower I get dressed in a yellow suit, finding it skintight but comfortable enough for me not to hate wearing it. When I get back to the room the box is still there, so I peek inside of it to find a pair of sneakers and a backpack. I put on the shoes and examine the backpack, opening all its compartments and find a note in one of them. Fill me.
"With what?" I wonder, leaving the room with the bag in my hand. As I walk past the dining room, I notice the food on the table is packaged. "Oh." I mumble as I stare at the backpack. I take the two big bottles of water and clip them to the bag before looking at the contents of the table. There's rope and weapons that I know I might need so I pack them. Then I pack everything that's sealed like the granola bars, peanut packages and fruit rolls. Once the pack is filled everything disappears and a normal breakfast spread takes place. I fill myself up before strapping the backpack to my body and making my way outside into the garden but there's no indication that I can leave this place though there. I think about it for a minute before I rush to the library where the solid-colored walls have turned into doors with a riddle written above it. I have lakes but no water, streets but no cars, I have many places and borders, but I'm in one piece. What am I? I read it over a couple of times before I smile.
"A map." The riddle disappears as I say the answer out loud, and I walk towards the red door, but it doesn't open. I try the rest of the doors, but they don't budge. "A fucken map." I mutter finally looking around the library. I search in the desks and the cabinets before I find a map of the world book, but all the pages have parts of the maps sliced out. "You can't give me a fucken break?" I scream into the empty room, plopping down on a chair, frustration bubbling inside of me.

"Casey" I call to the sentinel in my head, but silence greets me, brining tears to my eyes as I deploy my magic to search every part of my mind but she's no where to be found. With teary eyes I look at the ripped maps in front of me, wishing they would all just be whole. I've been alone for the past four days and as much as I loved being by myself before I met Rain, I'm not used to it. Then we bonded and I got Casey, and I truly knew what it felt to be whole, to not have any missing pieces.
"Missing." I mutter, wiping the tears from my face as I stare at the parts of the maps that are sliced out. I think back to Ragna and how I mended the missing parts of his wings and let out a dry chuckle. "Fuck you Magnus." I hope he can hear me. I focus my magic on the map in front of me, watching as the missing pieces of the map fills itself in. I go through the whole book like that before I try the doors again, but they're locked still. "Keys. I need keys." I mutter, taking the backpack from my back and leaving it in the library.
I make my way back to my room and start looking, pulling out every box I can find, going through every crevice of the room until I come up with four of the seven keys I need, each of them a different color. I move on to my bathroom and then my closet before I have all seven keys in my hands. Heading back to the library I place the keys in the doors with their colors and twist them, but they still don't open. With a sigh I place the pack back on my back and pick up the book of maps before I try the red door again. It opens, much to my delight. I step through it and the door closes behind me, disappearing into the trees I'm surrounded by.
Nothing about this place looks familiar and so I page around the book until I find a page that has a slight red glow to it. I study the map, finding an area clearly labeled endpoint with various numbers on the map. I'm in the middle if the tree on the map is any indication and I have to get to number one that's all the way on east end of the map. Making sure my pack is secured, and my shoes won't get untied I start walking in that direction, noticing a blimp that moves as I do. When I finally make it to number one there's a puzzle piece on a pedestal waiting for me, so I grab it and place it in my backpack. Looking at the map I notice number seven is much closer than two, so I head in that direction, only to find a dome covering the puzzle piece.
"I have to do it in sequence." I mutter to myself, hiking towards number two on the map. As I hike between the numbers I stop to rest, drink water, have something to eat and curse Magnus to the ends of the world. When I finally reach the end point, I fit all the puzzle pieces together and almost laugh at the words on the final piece.
In life, there are no shortcuts. Only those who follow the rules earns the prize.
With a grin I nod to myself as the door appears once more and I step through it. Back in the library I have no idea how many days have passed since I went through that red door, but I promise myself this, I'll make it to the end and when I kill Magnus there won't be any short cuts. I'll be all too lucky if I can manage to put him through the torture he put me though.
