Connect Four
You are standing in front of an enormous periodic table. What is the atomic number for arsenic?
The fluorescent lights are flickering, on and off, on and off, their buzzing growing louder and louder like a plague of locusts.
You hear the crash and grind of machines. They are tearing off the roof above your head!
Black and white geometric patterns swirl around you, spiraling infinitely. You are falling, falling.
You jerk awake. You’re in the Davis Centre library, head slumped on the enormous leather-bound book you had been skimming through, searching for clues. You couldn’t have been asleep for more than a few minutes.
Someone has slipped a red envelope between the book’s pages.
