Chapter 10: What Goes Down Part 2

Asheton P. O. T. S
My eyes popped open wide open that is, at first everything was blurry I could hear my heart beating fast in my chest.

He was in front of me few inches from my face. An evil malicious grin emerged across his face

His blood red eyes glowed even brighter. It was like it was serging through my soul taking over me but the pain was getting worse I would literally do anything to make it stop. I was sweating

My face landed on the wooden floor hard he then brought himself down squatting in front of me. I keep taking deep breaths to keep me alive.

As my head hit hard on the floor, I realized that I had an interlocking skeleton pin which comes in handy in this type of situation, the key was embedded in the upper part of my long sleeve. I used it to jimmie up the shackle, I let out a silent grasp of air from my mouth as I was able to loosen the shackles.

After loosening the shackles, I took it off smacked it against his face he took a step back put a hand on his face clearly it felt a tad painful.

I made a run for it then the armoured guy came to me his hands on his sword, I rolled over and double crunched kicked him in the jiggles from underneath he fell on his back on the floor with a thud.

I ran for it to my right through an open door in the room with just a glance it lead me to seemingly dark room with pillars.

Goodness gracious this guy loves dark rooms.

What does this darkness do for him? Is it something that he does to his advantage or he doesn't have the money to pay a mortgage or whatever? What's with this guy and who?

There might be a lot of questions to ask but I should focus on getting out of here, possibly getting weapons new clothing that is more durable and efficient.

I maneuver behind each pillar in order to be undetected I hear some foot steps heading in this room.

"Who are you people".
"What do want". I said moving up around the room hoping maybe to find an exit or to try and out smart them, my voice echoing all over the room. I could see their heads turning around noting that they were confused trying to figure out where I am.

I noticed that the pillars were not attached to any part of the building they had nothing on them. I kept on moving despite the blood on both my wrists the only disadvantage I have is that I do not know my way around this building so it's possible they might try to block the exits, but I should not try to think about that I continue my sprint criss cross my way through the pillars.

My wrists were still cut open I think the surrounding air is getting into the cut decide to cover it up, so I stopped briefly rested my hand on the pillar for a minute the blood from my wrist stained the pillar a bit I used my hands to tear a little of linen from my inner wear which was regular fabric so it was easy to rip apart wrapped it round my wrists tied it with the two ends coated inside a knot with my teeth.

With that done I was still running, finally I was almost near the door which had sparkly beads wrapped in a figure 8. It was with a figure 8 in the middle colored purple, the outer part around the figure was brown.

Om my way to the door, a sharp sword came at me from my right I grabbed the wrist of the wielder pulled him side step swooped the leg turned took away the sword and threw him away to my far left.

Now at least I have a weapon in hand it would make things more simple for me.

Well that is easier said than done

I may not be sure of what is going on plus I am even completely unaware of what lies behind that door.

Could it be a trap? Is there another method towards my escape?
Hmm... not sure my mind is puzzled and overwhelmed with thoughts.

There is a percentage that it could be a ticked out of here because of what I have seen so far is that these guys are tough I could try handling them alone to gain some kind of information from them.

A few inches from the door, I was blocked by a six foot armoured galloot with two of his buddies on each side. The door was blocked which means that I have to hold my ground with the best if my abilities, regaining confidence, not paying attention to my pain, relieving myself of fear, readied my self did my stance.

The guy I knocked out earlier came from behind me I turned around and sliced him blood gushed out from him before he collapsed to the ground. The others came rushing in.

The big guy with heavy spikey scales armour raised his spikey scales armoured hand to strike me I dodged gave him a mighty strike of my own.

The two other men that was beside him with a ridiculous haircut came charging at me with an attack, I barrel jumped towards them kicking and punching them.

I was now opposite them I was back turned against the door.

"Go ahead if you dare". The armoured one said his mouth was covered with a face mask. His voice sounds so sinister as if either wants me to go there or he is going to do everything in his power to stop me from getting through that door.

Maybe I should pin them all down and force information out of them.

I leap forward aiming for the armored jacked guy. Honestly, I am never going to learn their names.

However, before I had the chance to do it, a cloud of cement colored dust which emerged from the ground.

Then the people that were in front of me vanished I tried to go after them but the ground erupted hoisting me up and throwing me back with a thud.

The fall was quite long but not too long my back hit the ground slide across before I came to a stop and landed on my belly side.

It hurt I managed to get back up curving my arm around my stomach with one hand my grip on the sword with the other.

The room was pitch black, then the floor starts rumbling cement covered tentacles come up from the ground and entangle around me, pin me to the floor hard I tried to get free but no use soon my sword got sunk into the ground like it was quick sand.
A voice sounds and echoes all over the room in all directions. I look up to dry and figure out the disembodied voice

"I bet it's him again". I thought to myself

He remark on how good I was and forcefully makes me join him.

Author's note: Here is another chapter sorry it took long. I have a lot to think about.
