"A ceiling register. Brilliant!" Henry whispered. "Just gotta figure out how to get to it." Henry opened a toilet door and gently stepped on a water closet. He was able to dismantle its seal.

"Scary as how?" Hannah asked.

"There are lots of cobwebs here," Henry said.

"Do we have a choice? Let's just figure out how to get in," I said.

"Okay, I have a plan. Emily and I will help Hannah up. Then, Emily will go next. Thereafter, I'll follow," Henry said, gesturing toward the register with his hand.

"So how do you intend on getting in?" Hannah asked.

"I'm a guy; getting in will be easy," Henry answered.

"Okay, let's do it quickly before those guys get here," I said.
