The Hallway

I sometimes come in a can, but I'm not food. I sometimes come in a bottle, but I'm not a beverage. I come in different colors, but I'm not a rainbow. I'm sometimes used with canvas, but I'm not a tent. I'm used to a brush, but I'm not toothpaste.

"Pfft--- this is the easiest riddle I have ever seen; whoever made this probably looked it up from the internet," Edward said he knew the answer at first glance.

"So the answer is the paint?"

"Yeah, pretty much, haaah…." Edward said as he removed the painting from the wall to find a key attached to it.

After that, Edward tried the key to open one case but found out that the case needed a combination code, "Okay, I take that back. This is the most useless clue we have ever gotten." he said as he gave the key back to Auryan.

He sighs and sits down at the case; Auryan plays around until he stumbles upon finding out that there is something under the carpet. she taps the ground again; it sounds like wood instead of the hard concrete stone that is billed all around the jail looking room.

"Hey, think there is something under this."

"Wait?"

"let me check it out; oh, a hidden compartment."

Auryan said as he stepped away from the carpet and then removed it from the floor to find a hidden wooden compartment under the grey carpet floor. He then pulls it out from the ground and slides the container's lit opening to find that it is useful.

They use this information to open up another bed cabinet, to find a puzzle with all pieces, only white colors with a letter on the back, "Okay, this is getting ridiculous! how are we going to solve this if everything is white?"

"Calm down. I know how to solve this one."

"How are you going to?" Edward asked while watching Auryan turn every 500 pieces back to see each letter, and he began to place them tight to form a hidden message; after a while, they finally got it.

It leads them to the last container; Auryan told Edward the last few digits, and finally, they would find a single book on the inside; Edward opened the book to find something inside.

The metallic door sounded as it opened widely and slowly; the two finally got out of the jail room.

As they walked out of the room, they found two figures coming out from a doorway. It was too dark for Edward and Auryan to recognize the two; just then, lights began to turn on as each light bulb went on in the ceiling along the hallway.

"Oh, it's just the two of you…."

"We thought the same as well; you wound believed what we did to come here," Rory said as she told her story with Liam about they had to escape a room and have to get out from a big maze.

Auryan sighs in relief to hear that they both are all right and fine and gives her a quick hug, and the four quickly change as they focus on the mysterious hallway they are in.
