I decided to keep it last post first, apart from one informational post. Since most people will probably be following the story as it grows, it makes more sense to keep the updated on top.
Anyway, I wrote a new part to my story, which you can read either here or on my blog (link is in my signature), whichever suits you best.
Hope you guys like it
Crawling through the narrow path she’d found in the wall she became a bit frightened. Not being used to small spaces, it felt like the darkness crept up through her spine, making her shiver. After a while, going around another corner, she saw a small light in the distance, relieved she crept forward. The closer she got, the more she felt at ease, as if the light summoned her out of the narrow cave. But, even though she got closer, it was as if the light didn’t grow bigger, as it should have done when she’d get closer to the end of these paths. Realizing this she paused, thinking what she should do now, when the light grew smaller and smaller. She decided to figure out what caused this. As fast as she could manage she tried to get closer to the light. Struggling to get closer, she noticed the light was.. waving from left to right as it moved forward.
By the time she almost got close enough to see what the light was coming from, it sped up, making sure there was no way to come closer, but not too fast to fall behind more as she was now. Then the caverns got a little wider, she was able to stand up. Having this much room, she could swim, and within a short time, she caught up with what appeared to be the tail of a fish, its face hidden in the shadows behind its side fins. She grabbed the tail of the fish, trying to throw some light on the hidden face. Without warning, the creature threw its face around; revealing what had better should’ve stayed a mystery. A gaping mouth with long razor sharp teeth was glaring at her. Terror made her body freeze on the spot. Slowly the creature swam towards her, opening his mouth further with every thrust of his tail.
This is it. I never thought this journey would be over so soon, let alone in the horrible way it’ll end. I never even had a chance to figure out where I came from. Eww, what’s that between his teeth! Wait, why am I bothered about something like that now? It must be that I’m growing insane in my final moments, I can’t stand it that I can’t even think straight.Slowly the teeth were moving around her. She was looking straight down the throat she’d end up in, being devoured by this awful being. Then she reached the end, and touched the roof of the mouth, it was as if the creature froze on the spot. The little thing she saw stuck between his teeth before now started to glow. And once again she felt this familiarity, this warm and ensuring feeling, it made her able to move again. As fast as she could she swum between the teeth of the creature. Upon exiting she passed the creatures eyes, and when she came into its view, for some reason, the eyes widened, as if he was afraid. Then it turned around and swum away, once again leaving her in darkness.
After catching a breath to get a bit of peace in her body after the recent events, she continued wandering through the maze-like caverns. After, what seemed days, she finally reached another light, this one growing bigger as she came closer. Upon reaching the end she had to close her eyes, for the light was blinding after all these days in the dark caverns. When she finally got used to the light and opened her eyes, her mind was blown away.
PS. Next chapter I'm planning on releasing the name of the main character, which right now is the working title of my story
and might end up being the final title, unless I have a better idea, or people give me a good idea
