Luis along with Tania and Todd had arrived in front of the museum which was apparently what Todd wanted to show Tania, the question was whether he wanted to just show her the museum or something inside.
The museum was the tallest building in the and it was also the nicest-looking building.
The interior was mostly glass with a large sign placed on it that read Phoenix academy's library.
The upper part of the building was a little tipped and had a little balcony where someone could stand and get a clear view of everywhere and that balcony up there was where Todd had his sight.
"What did you want to show me again?" Tania asked, turning her gaze to Todd as they had been standing there for quite a while.
"I wanted to show you alone," Todd said, turning his gaze to Luis.
It was clear he didn't like the idea of him coming along and the Angel knew the reason why.
"Hey, Luis is my friend and whatever you want to show me he's welcome to see it too," Tania said.
"No, Tania, it's okay, I think I'll leave you two alone," Luis said, turning to leave but Tania had grabbed his hand before he could take any step forward.
"No, you're coming with us and if you don't want him to come, then I don't want to go," Tania said.
"Fine," Todd grumbled as he began to hear towards the museum.
"Let's go," Tania said to Luis as she began to follow Todd.
'You should probably give him space to do what he wants to do when you guys get up there.' Lena said.
'Yeah, but the question is if I want to.' Luis replied before making his way toward the museum's entrance.
The three were directed to the counter just on the first floor of the academy by the woman they had met on entering the museum.
"Hello, how can I help you?" The lady behind the counter asked.
"We don't know exactly, that woman told us to come here after we told her we weren't from Phoenix academy," Tania said pointing backward.
"Oh, you're from the other academies which means you don't have access cards." The lady said.
"Access cards?" Tania said with a confused expression on her face.
"Yeah, you need access cards to be able to access the museum without any restrictions." The lady said. "Since you're all just here for one week, I would suggest getting the tier-one bronze cards."
"Are they free?" Todd asked as he was sensing money was about to enter the conversation.
"No, it's not free, a tier one bronze card will cost one bronze coin from each of you." The lady said.
"One bronze coin?" Todd said, slightly raising his voice.
"Yeah, only." The lady said this time with a little smile.
"Damn it and I forgot my wallet in my dorm room," Todd said, turning his gaze to Tania to see her response.
"I'm not with any coins," Tania said.
"Is this going to be enough?" Luis asked as he dropped a gold coin in front of the lady.
"It's actually more than enough." The lady said as she dropped a bronze coin for him.
"Oh," Luis said as he grabbed the bronze coin and slid it into his pocket.
Todd was quite surprised to see Luis pay for the cards, he thought they would have to leave and return later and he liked the idea since that would mean Luis wouldn't come with them but that idea had gone out of the window now.
"You see I was right in insisting he came," Tania said, turning her gaze to Todd.
"Yeah," Todd said but he didn't have the brightest of looks on his face.
The lady who had walked to the little shelves behind her had returned with three bronze-coloured cards which had numbers imprinted on them, numbers which happened to be their expiry dates.

"Ok, here are your cards." The lady said, showing them the cards. "All I have to do now is imprint your names and photos on them."
"Is that really necessary?" Todd asked.
"Yeah." The lady said with a nod. "That's the way we know the card actually belongs to you."
"Okay," Todd said.
"So what are your names, I just need your first name and last name?" She asked.
"Ummm…I'm Luis Miles." Luis said.
"Tania Blackstone," Tania said.
"Todd Rowland," Todd said.
She responded with a meek smile as she walked out of the counter and headed straight to the door by the side.
"This place is quite huge," Luis said, looking around.
There were a few people and students walking around and most of them were heading for the elevators in the room.
"Yeah but I don't see any artifacts," Tania said.
"The building is huge, they may be on the other floors," Todd said. "Besides, we're not here for those."
"Then why are we here?" Tania asked with a perplexed look on her face.
"Let's just say it's a surprise," Todd said with a smile.
"Okay….I love surprises." Tania said, smiling back at him.
'I just hope any of this doesn't go downhill or end in a bad way.' Lena said.
'I don't know what you mean by downhill but Tania has a different set of thoughts compared to what he's thinking.' Luis replied.
"Okay, here are your cards." The lady said as she returned to the counter and dropped the cards there for them to pick up.
Luis was the first to pick up his card which had an image of him now with his name written beside it.
"How did you get our pictures?" Tania asked after picking up her own card.
"We have our ways." The lady said with a smile. "You can now head to the second floor if you want to join the tour or you can decide to look around on your own."
"Okay, let's go," Todd said quickly, heading to one of the elevators.
He waited for Luis and Tania to enter the elevator before he pushed the last floor number on the elevator keys.
"Why are we heading to floor number ninety?" Tania asked.
"You'll see," Todd said with a cheeky smile.
It about seven minutes but the three had finally arrived at the final floor.
The elevator opened up and the three were quite surprised to see that there was nobody there.
There were rows of bookshelves with the only space in the room being from where they were standing to the balcony which was just a little distance away from them.
"It's a library," Luis said with a fascinated look on his face as he quickly made his way to one of the shelves in the area.
"Okay, I did not expect a library to be here," Todd said, looking around.
"Why is there no one here?" Tania asked.
"I don't think they have enough staff to put everywhere and I don't think they get many visitors at this part of the museum," Todd said.
"Well, the signboard said museum, not library," Tania said.
Luis wasn't really paying attention to what they were saying as he was browsing through the shelves looking for specific types of books.

"I didn't know you had this much interest in books," Tania said, looking at Luis as he went through the bookshelves.
"I think there are a lot of things that you don't know about me yet," Luis said.
"Hey come with me," Todd said, grabbing Tania's hand as he quickly made his way to the balcony.
Tania's eyes brightened on reaching the balcony with Todd, the view from up there was spectacular.
They could see the whole academy from up there and even outside the academy.
"It's beautiful," Tania said before turning her gaze to Todd. "Is this what you wanted to show me?"
"Yeah," Todd said with a nod.
"It's wonderful." She said, turning her gaze back to the scenery.
"Umm….I also got you something else." He said sticking his hand into his pocket.
"What?" Tania asked without turning to him.
"This." He said as he brought out a silver necklace that had a curvy letter T attached to it. "That's T for Tania." He said pointing at the T.
"You got me a necklace," Tania said with a surprised tone to her voice.
"Yeah," Todd said.
"It's beautiful, thank you." She said after taking the necklace from him and examining it.
"I know, you should put it on," Todd said with a smile.
"Help me please." She said, handing him the necklace.
She expected him to go behind her and put it over her neck but instead, he had pulled closer to her.
"I thought you were supposed to put it on from behind," Tania said as she didn't exactly like the feeling of his breathing on her neck.
.
"No, I can still do it this way," Todd said as he locked the necklace around her neck.
Tania expected her to back off after that but he didn't and kept looking at her from that close.
"Todd," Tania called as she was beginning to get quite nervous. "What are you…."
Todd didn't allow her to finish as he slowly pressed her lips against hers expecting a positive response from her but she had pulled away from the kiss.
"What are you doing Todd?" Tania asked. She seemed quite shocked by what just happened.
Todd stared at her for a few seconds before shaking his head like he just snapped out of a daze.
"Oh, I'm sorry I didn't mean to." He said as his face had gone red in embarrassment and the tone in his voice had dropped. "I think I should get out of here."
"No, Todd, wait," Tania said, trying to stop him from leaving but he had already made his way to the elevator and clicked the button to take him down to the first floor.
"What happened?" Luis asked, looking back and forth between Tania and the elevator which had just closed.
Tania didn't say anything as she stared at the elevator with a devastated look on her face.
