Chapter 5: (Ch5) The Infinite Hallways
Ivan walked into the gymnasium. What Ivan saw was truly amazing. There was a climbing wall that randomly had spikes pierce areas where climbers would most likely climb, and had gusts of wind that were probably used to push climbers off.
Ivan had to think of the reason these functions were added, as there was no one else in the room other then him and the security guards. This surprised Ivan, because who would waste money on a gym this complex and having no one using it.
There were even more bazaar things other than the climbing wall. There were normal weights, but when Ivan tried to lift it up, it got heavier and heavier, until Ivan had to drop it. A treadmill that was slippery to run on.
Ivan didn't try anything else after the treadmill. He just left the gymnasium and walked through the hallway, until he found another door. Ivan could actually read the sign on the door, it said 'library for the ignorant'. Ivan didn't know what it meant by ignorant, so he walked through the door.
What Ivan found first was a pitch black room with a alter in the middle. Ivan cautiously moved forward. When Ivan got close enough he found a book on alter. The book's title was 'the book for the ignorant'.
Ivan furiously opened the book, feeling insulted. When Ivan flipped to the first page he saw a few sentences that somehow made him feel even more insulted.'If you are reading this you are illiterate in the magic language and can't read any magic book or use magic techniques reliably'.
After a while, Ivan calmed down and read the rest of the first page and tried to read the second page, but couldn't. Most of the page is just telling the reader how magic can be used. Like in healing, alchemy, combat, etc. But on the bottom of the page is a incantation that will help Ivan learn how to read. Without seeing any disadvantages in saying it, Ivan read it out loud.
What surprised Ivan was that he wasn't saying any actual words. He was talking gibberish. No full words that make sense, or common pattern that would help you learn the alphabet of this language.
Ivan turned to the next page. What used to be random symbols is now English. The 2nd page explained how the incantation Ivan just read affected him. Apparently Ivan know can read all languages no matter what, be it Spanish or magical. It also states that things that can manipulate magic are the only ones who can read incantation, and that all living things have magic in them.
Ivan read on through the book, and found incantations for simple spells. Like making a small flame in his hand, being able to use air molecules to lift things, and being able to transform a rock into a knife, which Ivan put away in his pocket for safe keeping.
There were many more incantations or what the book calls 'spells', but Ivan wanted to explore more. So Ivan took the book with him to read at night. Ivan left the 'library' and kept going down the hall.
Ivan saw many types of rooms. From a kitchen with weird looking food, to a bigger library with more books about spells and the history of a magical world far away from earth. Ivan took a couple books from the library to read later, and some cookies from the kitchen to eat because he was hungry right now.
Ivan walked through the hall for a while, seeing many interesting rooms. Ivan kept walking until he found a familiar hole in the wall. It was the weird bedroom Ivan was in after being kidnapped by Sterling and the others.
Ivan suspiciously walked down the hall even more, and found the room he first found, the gymnasium. Ivan finally understood that he was in a infinite loop.
The voice of Greg sounded off behind Ivan, "looks like you finally found out you were in a infinite hallway, the reason we kidnapped you, and why you are so special.
