Escape The Dead

Chapter 31- An Unknown Floor

Gina cracked open an eye. She sat up and looked around the dark room on her bed. Jillian and Gina decided to take a quick nap before they start exploring this tall building. She flipped the blanket over and quietly jumped out of bed. She was wearing a white robe, like the ones they give you in a hotel, and all she's wearing under it is a bra and underwear.

She quickly, but quietly, made her way to the bathroom. She's really happy that she can see in the dark or else she would be bumping into many things in the dark as she made her way to the bathroom. Once inside she shut the door and flicked the lights on, she squinted a bit trying to a adjust to the lights. She turned to the mirror and noticed her red eye slowly turning back to their chocolate color.

'No matter how many times I look at my eyes, turning color it's always cool' Gina thought.

She slid off her robe and run her fingers over her midriff, feeling the scar from the bear. She can still feel the claws digging into her skin as the image replayed itself. She shook her head trying to get the image out of her mind and picked the bag on the tiled floor that contains her new clothes that she bought with the girls.

Jillian made her try on many dresses, skirts, shorts, blouses, tank tops, sweaters, uggs, boots, heels, she was practically using Gina as a dressing doll. And not just Jillian, everyone did the same. Gina sighed on the event. But she was able to get what she wanted even though Jillian said she should dress more like a girl.

Gina only rolled her eyes at the remembrance. She took the clothes out of the bag and started to get dressed. She pulled the white v-neck t-shirt down and shove her arms through the sleeves of her new turquoise button up shirt, she decided to leave it unbuttoned. She slid her brown shorts and white socks on. She picked up the box that was beside the bag and cracked open the lid to meet a pair of nice new blue and black sneakers. She tried on the sneakers and they fit just fine. She smiled to herself and tied her hair back into a ponytail with the red ribbon.

Before opening the bathroom door and leaving, she flicked the lights off, bathing the room in darkness. Gina looked to the mirror and saw two glowing red orbs, she flinched but remembered that the two red glowing orbs belong to her eyes. She let out a sigh ad cracked open the bathroom door to meet more darkness. She can see Jillian on the other side of the room in her bed fast asleep. Gina decided not to her wake her up even though she wanted to come with her. She tiptoed to the door trying to be as quiet as she can so she doesn't wake Jillian up. She twist the door knob and slowly opened the door, but as she opened, the door creaked and Gina froze.

She can hear the rustle of blankets behind her, then she cursed herself when she heard Jillian's voice. "Gina? Were you trying to sneak out without me?!"

"No, no, of course not," said Gina turning around to see Jillian sitting up straight with her arms folded.

"Really? Cause it looks like you were," said Jillian.

"I just thought... you know, that maybe you were tired and wanted more sleep." Gina chuckled as she rubbed the back of her neck.

"More sleep my ass, I'm coming with you if like or not!" Jillian stated as she jumped out of bed.

"Fine, just hurry and go get dressed, we don't have all night," said Gina.

"First, open the lights cause I can't see," said Jillian.

Gina groaned and switched the lights on. Now with the lights Jillian dashed to the bathroom so she can get dressed. Gina waited by the opened door for Jillian to come out of the bathroom fully dressed. Once Jillian came out dressed in her new blue shirt with a pink jacket and white skirt with her rapier hanging off her belt, they both head out of their room into the dimly lit halls of the skyscraper.
