A Library Full of Books

Suho's POV

I found myself in a library. Not the one from before, but a different one. This one was way bigger and had many floors. J-Hope was already awake, anxiously walking around, trying not to knock over things with the other half of him. 

"We are in a library," Ren said, standing up from the floor.

Sehun awoke too on the floor. We were again in the center of the library, where it was furnished with nice chairs and coffee tables. The ceiling was decorated with fine chandeliers and such, like the ones at my own house.

Ren went over to the table, picking up a paper, which I assumed was the objective paper.

"In this room, there are a bunch of hidden clues that would lead you the key that would let you out of this room," Alan's voice said over on the mic.

"The exit is really obvious: Those two large double doors at the end of the library. Read the objective paper for more information and good luck."

"Don't you think this would take awhile then?" J-Hope said, half-heartily laughing.

"It should not take that long. I know a spell to be able read books quickly ," Ren said, giving us a small smile.

Sehun was reading the paper.

"Books may or may not contain traps," he read from the paper.

"Well. We're supposed to find this key with wings on it. It's hidden in a book."

"Is there a range limit for your magic?" I asked Ren.

"Not really. It's supposed to take all the books in the library that relate to one topic," he told us.

"Don't you think that's a bad idea? Since the books "may or may not contain traps"?" J-Hope quoted from the paper.

"Hm. I suppose he's right," Ren said, thinking again. 

"Why don't we just look?" Sehun asked, already reaching for a book. 

"Hey wait! Don't touch anything-" Ren said, trying to stop him.

Sehun pulled a rusty gold colored book out of the shelf and there was a clicking noise. From the ceiling, a trap door opened and a lion dropped out from there. It looked around, a bit confused.

"...No sudden movements..." I whispered.

Then it craned it's head toward us, then spotted J-Hope. He sighed.

'It's really bad to smell half-horse right?" he groaned.

The lion leaped toward us, hungry. Sehun threw the book in shock, somewhere under the table. J-Hope told us to run. I pushed Ren towards Sehun, almost tripping on my own feet as we started running down the long aisles of books. I heard J-Hope not far behind me, along with the lion's growls. 

"I need you all to find your way back to the middle! Don't split up!" J-Hope yelled out.

"I'll deal with the lion!"

"Are you sure you don't need help?" I turned my head slightly to the right to face him.

Bad idea, because I crashed into a wall of books. I heard a lot more clicks being activated, and that couldn't be any good. I didn't see Ren or Sehun anywhere, and I think that was the least of my worries right now. They must've split off. I felt myself being lifted up and I was suddenly thrown on to J-Hope's back.

"Well, you're with me now! Hold on!" he said.

I held on to his shoulders, the hungry lion still chasing after us. I heard Sehun screaming somewhere as we appeared back into the middle of the library. I took the chance to jump on to the couch. I bunch of song birds then flew past my head and I ducked. J-Hope kept running around, trying to keep the lion busy.
