All was clear. She leaped out and ran down the hall, Sneakers running on her heels. "This is bad, this is bad, this is bad..." He kept chanting to himself. "Shhh!" Maria ran down a long stairway. "I think I'm on to something now!" The stairs appeared to lead down to the very foundation of Sabrina's gym. It was dark, but Maria could still see fairly well. In the gym basement, which it seemed to be, she couldn't see much, other than the damp dust floating around, giving everything a musty smell. A small sound almost like a chime drew her attention to a small door behind the staircase itself. There was a tiny timepiece above the doorframe which had just marked the hour. Maria rubbed her hands together. "Here we go....I'll bet this is where Sabrina keeps all her psychic Pokemon!" Sneakers' fur stood on end. "Are you nuts!? If any psychics or daresay Sabrina herself finds us down here stealing her Pokemon we're-!" Maria grabbed him around by the mouth. "Shut up! Remember what I told you, or I'll leave you here!" With a deep frown, Sneakers sunk close to the ground as Maria opened the small door. It squeaked loudly as it opened, making her flinch. She walked inside and found a medium-sized room lit by lamps and filled with books and crates. From the look of the dust and cobwebs, no one had been down there in ages. "Whoa." Maria tried peeking into the crates, but couldn't see much. She wandered among them until a dark corner towards the back caught her eye. Something ruby red glimmered from beneath an ancient looking towel. Pulling it off, she found a tiny box, about the size of a TM. But its surface was like a red gem, and there was a little lock holding it shut. She attempted to pry it open, but with no luck. "I wonder what's inside." Maria wondered, watching it glow in her palm. With a half grin, she pocketed the little box. "Hey, who's there?" It wasn't Sneakers' voice. With a gasp, Maria whirled around to face the stranger. TBC?
