"I expect it to be haunted because some ghost wrote while it was punished for hell." Clark laughed. For all the haunted things they were getting habitual with them. They were in the museum to clear it after all.

"The clue gave the warning. Well I believe that words could destroy at the same time heal. However I am curious as to what harm that document could bring." Albert commented.

They reached in front of the script hall. As they stood at the entrance, Ahram saw the notice board. "Something is written on notice board." He spoke. The team members walked toward it. They could see the endless heaps of documents placed on various table in a row.

No one could tell who was behind the tables because of the bulk of documents. "Please take note, this Script hall is place for silence. If you want to read any script, search related section." They read the notice board then the list of the sections and the availability of the various types of scripts.

They walked among the bundles of documents then they found the sections. Each section had most important documents placed in the glass boxes so that people could read them without holding them. There were endless rows after rows where the glass boxes were placed.

This script hall was little different. The sections and the subsection were merged with the signboards. The signboards had some instructions printed on them.

Junan read the first sign board. "The walker would burn his feet under the sun, the shadow would keep following behind unhurt."

He literally wanted to turn his head and see the shadow. With the silence prevailing, Junan felt the words were threat. "There should be the section name and the script type at the beginning of merged sections. Isn't it confusing?" Albert asked.

He saw several rows of the glass boxes however the script seemed unreadable at some point. Most of the scripts were mere proverbs or the riddle type. None of them seemed ancient.

It was due to the reason that the haunted script changed most signboards. These signboards were placed to guide visitors however most of them get lost. They could not find what they were here for. Not all visitors were interested in all types of scripts. They wanted to read particular scripts however they randomly walked later get out of the script hall, clearly knowing that they didn't want to enter inside again.

The script hall misguided visitors and some times the staff too get lost. When they noticed the signboards were frequently changing, they refused to enter in the script hall. This was how the administration came to know about the haunted script hall.

The haunted script was placed in one of the glass boxes. It was unfinished sentence written by the dying king. His queen gave him poison. When he drank half of it, the queen exposed that there was poison in the grape juice.

Before death king tried to write this sentence in order to reveal the killer however he could not. The script was titled as the treasure and unfinished wish of the dying king. The empire saved it in the treasure. Later it was taken by the archeologists. They gave it to the museum. It was said that the empire faced its demise because of the unfinished wish of the king.

In the modern times that piece of paper became as the ancient script however the curse of the king remained lingering. He wanted to kill disloyal queen.

The lingering curse kept ruling the script hall by changing the signboards and the other scripts in order to misguide visitors. It was most what this script could do.

Although the script hall never killed any visitor or staff still it was blot of shame on the name of the museum.

"It had been some time the confusion among the merged sections is leading us nowhere. Do you think the other two teams found the clue. Did anyone hear the battle?" Junan asked. He was curious at the sluggish atmosphere and zero progress in the task.

The team member shook their heads. None of them heard any clash in the surrounding.

...

The first team entered enthusiastic in the script hall however they were clueless. The second team was searching normal scripts because they could not find the path toward the treasure scripts those were placed in the glass boxes.

The first team read horrible signboards. They heard the shuffling of the papers as if someone angry tearing apart some scripts. Despite searching they could not find the source of the voice.

It increased their worry. The second team read one after the other script. "There are thousand over scripts, how we can search the haunted one?" A player got tired. He read first scripts and screamed telling others that it was haunted. The other players made fun of him. Later he screamed again telling same thing.

"Your frustration is walking on your head." Someone commented to add fuel on fire. The player stiffened his anger, "I never read this much in my entire school life. Why I should read the reports of the merchants? The letters of the dead soldiers? The recipe of old times? The tales of the forests? And so on. It is not ending." He complained.

The team head did not scold him. Half of them were tired now and sitting on the floor. The time they took to read, it was double than the time they spent in two tasks.

"There must be sections but why we are unable to reach them?" The team head asked. All other halls had several sections in order to distribute and securely exhibit the objects properly.

They thought to put some effort and start the search again. It was never pulling because they didn't hear announcement whether the third team completed the task or not.

Since there was no announcement it means both opponent teams were stuck somewhere.

This relaxed them a bit and worried them at the same time.
