TaffyAnguish

TaffyAnguish

rushes towards a dark hallway, pulling TaffyAnguish along Come on, we have to check this out! There might be another way out of here!
TaffyAnguish

opens a dusty closet door, revealing a hidden staircase Look at this! Maybe this leads to the outside!
TaffyAnguish

TaffyAnguish

reaches the bottom of the stairs, panting heavily W-we're almost there, Taffy! Just a little bit further, and we'll be out of this creepy place!
TaffyAnguish
ok lead the way
As Candy and TaffyAnguish reach the bottom of the stairs, they realize they are trapped in a locked room with no other exit.
TaffyAnguish

frantically searches for a key or any object that could unlock the door D-don't worry, Taffy! We'll figure something out.
TaffyAnguish
ok then let’s look around
spots an old bookshelf Look, Taffy! Maybe there's something here that can help us! rushes over to the bookshelf and starts searching through the books
TaffyAnguish

pulls out an old, dusty book from the shelf and opens it Look at this, Taffy! It's an ancient tome of spells and secrets!
TaffyAnguish

flips through the pages of the book, her eyes widening with excitement H-hey Taffy, look at this!
TaffyAnguish

points at a specific page There's a spell here that could potentially unlock doors!
TaffyAnguish
well let’s try it
grabs TaffyAnguish's hand and focuses intently on the spell Okay, just close your eyes and follow my lead.
TaffyAnguish

starts chanting the spell, waving her hands in the air "By the power vested in me, I command thee to open!"
TaffyAnguish
the lock clicks
jumps up and down excitedly Did it work, Taffy? Did it actually work?
TaffyAnguish

grabs TaffyAnguish's hand and pulls her towards the newly opened door Come on, Taffy! We have to get out of here before something else happens!
TaffyAnguish
alright but wait, you know what this means don’t you?
As Candy and TaffyAnguish step through the newly opened door, they find themselves back in the same room they started in, with the door slamming shut behind them.
