  47. ABOUT THE PUBLISHER

She had no idea where to go, and so she just ran, turning when she came to a corner and continuing down another hallway. When she spied a red sign at the end saying EMERGENCY EXIT, she doubled her efforts. Reaching the door, she glanced at the warning there saying ALARM WILL SOUND and hit the push bar hard. True to the sign’s word, a loud buzzing sound began ringing.

Behind the door was a set of stairs going both up and down. Nemo considered going down, then decided that was the way Seamus and Boomer would expect her to go, and so she chose to go up. She hoped that maybe she could open the door on the next floor and retrace her steps back to the elevators.

When she reached the next landing, however, she discovered that it was a dead end. The door in front of her said ROOF ACCESS ONLY. She was about to turn around, when she heard footsteps coming behind her.

She opened the door. A cool breeze hit her in the face as she stepped out onto the roof of the Saturn Hotel. She paused, trying to figure out where she could go, but the sound of the boys’ voices behind her forced her forward. She ran blindly, heading for the center of the roof, where she saw a huge statue of the planet Saturn rising up into the night sky. She hoped she could find someplace there to hide.

Seamus and Boomer were not far behind.

“There she is!” Boomer called.

Nemo reached the base of the statue, where she discovered a ladder set into one side. She put her hand on it and started to climb. As she did, Magdalena appeared from around the other side. When she saw Nemo, she clapped her hands.

“Oh! I love surprises!” she said.

Nemo ignored her and climbed. Magdalena didn’t have any Legacies, and right now she was the least of Nemo’s worries. She kept going, reaching the top of the platform, where she paused and looked down. Seamus and Boomer were standing beside Magdalena, looking up at her.

“There’s nothing to turn into a bomb,” Boomer said, sounding irritated.

“We don’t need one of your bombs,” Seamus said. “I’ll just call some of my friends.”

Nemo didn’t wait around to see what kind of bugs he was going to summon. She went to the large pole that the statue of Saturn stood on. It too had a ladder affixed to it. She started climbing. She had no idea how going even higher up was going to help her, but she figured it was better than being on the roof in a three-against-one battle.

When she reached the bottom of the planet, she discovered that it was hollow, and that she could crawl inside. She did, finding herself inside a globe about twenty feet wide. It was filled with lights that twinkled on and off. The ladder kept going up, ending in a platform that had a small door in it. Nemo ignored it for the moment, trying to catch her breath and think.
