Introduction:
You are walking down your street,
minding your own beeswax. All of a sudden, a man, dressed all in black, runs
past you, knocking you down.
Your backpack spills all over the sidewalk and you are
in a heap. Clearly flustered, the man stops and turns and helps you up, he is
muttering the entire time about secrets and seven and other stuff you can?t
decipher. He helps you pick up your backpack and then runs off as soon as you
are upright. By the time you get home
and start your homework, several hours have passed. As you dump out your
backpack you find a cassette player mixed in with all your things. How did this get here, you wonder? Finally,
the light bulb turns on; the man who knocked you down must have put it in there
accidentally! Noticing the tape inside, you turn the Player on. It tells you to
click immediately on the Tasks link below.
