Stream of Consciousness Saturday : Book: Press the button 5

The  Lovely  and  Talented  LindaGHill  said  : Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is: “book.” Use any meaning of the word as your theme, or simply mention the word “book” in your post. Enjoy!

Now  as  my  Press the  Button  Story  started  as  an SoCs  last  Saturday I  have  decided to  combine  my  ongoing  story  with  this  weeks  SoCs . Now I  have  been  writing  the  story  all  week  and  each  post  has  been  a stream of consciousness  post.   So  shall we continue.

The Book

Was I  in  a  book  or a film I had  no  idea if  I was on  my  head or  my  toes. Here  we  were yet again  outside  an airlock  with  a  button  with  press  emblazoned on  it. The  type  of  order  that books no  argument.  Here  we  were hanging around this  airlock  and  no  one  else  will press the  button  so  again  it is  all  down  to  me.

So I press the  button and  the  outer  door  on  the  airlock opens and  we  enter, it  closes  with  a woosh and  again  we  watch  as  the  pressure is sucked out. Then  the  inner  door  opens  and  we  enter  the  body  of  the  ship. None of  us  have  ever  seen anything  like  this  before.

This  place looked like nothing  we had  ever  seen, it  was  mainly  metallic  but  unbelievably soft  to the  touch. There  was  soft  yellow  lighting and  blue  arrows  leading us  deep into  the  heart  of  the  ship. Dean took  the  lead  followed  by  Kaylie  and  James  with  me , as usual  bringing up  the  rear!  We followed  the  arrows  and  walked  for  half  an hour.

Finally  we found ourselves  at  the  heart,  the  very  center of  the ship. It was  a brightly  lit  space with  a  huge  reading  desk in  the  middle of  the floor. There  were  bookcases  lining  the  walls  all full of  books  with  sliding  ladders  all over  the  place.  What  caught  my  eye immediately  was  the  huge  book open on  the  reading  desk in  the  middle of  the room.

We all moved in  close  and I looked  at  the  cover  to  see  what  the  title  was…. It was called The Book.
