Unseen in The Vault…
You seem to have lost the tour group… you can’t catch up with them. You don’t know where they have gone.…
“Hello?” you ask. “Is there anybody there?”
You receive no answer…
Curious, you step into The Vault…
Into a new room…
“What do we have here?” you ponder…
…you walk alone past racks and racks and racks of old film canisters… “Wow, this is a lot of movies” you say to yourself.
“Hm”, you continue… “This must be C.W.’s film collection…”
Fascinated, you go further and try the door at the end, it’s unlocked. So, you open it, walk through the door, and into the dark you go,
deeper and deeper...
…into a room where the light makes the room look gold… and you see another vault door… it seems this one also
was left open…
…so you pry it open all the way with all your might…and think to yourself… “I don’t think I should be back here, maybe I should go back…”, but something is pulling you closer… a feeling…something…you can’t explain.
And a glowing light begins to illuminate toward you, beckoning you through the gate behind it… so you step into the unknown. It’s scary but it’s exciting, so you continue on.
…and beyond the closed door you reach an opening… and in the distance you see a tree…
“A tree?”, you ask yourself, “Why would a tree be here? Hidden, in a Studio? So you go toward it for a better look…
…you dip into the liquid and wade in the warm water before it… the feeling you were feeling before getting stronger, the fear growing larger, the excitement pulsing faster. You inch closer…
And when you clear the water and get to the base of the tree, you see seeds scattered about the trunk, the size of peach pits.
You study one and then something catches your eye. You see a stone tablet covered in moss… you can only make out a couple words etched in stone…
There’s a word covered by moss… so you go to move the moss away but…
you hear water moving behind you…
SO YOU QUICKLY TURN!
“HEY!!! WHAT ARE YOU DOING BACK HERE?!!!”
“YOU CANNOT BE HERE, COME BACK THIS WAY WITH ME NOW…
HURRY ALONG!”
“PLEASE COME WITH ME RIGHT NOW —— VISITORS ARE NOT ALLOWED INSIDE THESE ROOMS, THEY ARE FOR C.W.’S USE ONLY AND HE WOULD BE VERY DISPLEASED IF HE KNEW YOU WERE SNOOPING AROUND BACK HERE.
THE VAULT IS FOR
HIS EYES ONLY!!!”
“I do apologize for getting angry with you back there… It’s just we are under strict orders…Please go down this path or back the other way and proceed to the next department immediately.”
