She’s really scared. For a second there I thought she would kill me but I think she’d kill anything that came near me here. I really wish I could remember…The last thing I can remember is when me and my brother left Dad and started working at Gheon’s bar. It was the last day I ever had to go to school so that was a plus…
This place is cracking up I think we’re gonna die. Does it just crack up at midnight?
Before I can think it Rosario yanks me by the arm and spins me up the next flight of stairs. She’s…really strong. Wow she’s strong…Ack! Wait! Stay focused!
On trying not to trip on the steps she’s propelling me up..?
“What happens if we’re still here by midnight…?” My only reply is nearly skidding off a couple stairs while Rosario jerks me kinda? steady. Miss Monster Lord Castle Marsha good grief we’re all gonna die! “Hey! I still have two questions! What happens if we’re still here by midnight? Are we stuck here?!”
Nothing. Not even an evil cackle.

If he expected anyone to answer no one did. We’re up a flight, two seconds flat. Chale. Stairs crumbling below us but I can still hear him mumbling.
“I still have two questions unless something changed… that’s the rules…”
Next flight. And what’s there…
“You have got to be joking.” I say and swear in Spanish.
In front of us, the only door out just opens to the abyss outside. You can look out and you can’t see any ground below it. Just a thin, broken bridge like a skeleton. From this side to another tower and this one’s crumbling. You can hardly see it in the frigid night, wire-thin trail of silver railing. Then I realize it’s not just a bridge. I should’ve recognized it sooner.
It’s the Bridge.
“Rosy?” I almost don’t hear his voice, but it’s there. “I think I remember now.”
