Don't Hug Me I'm The Chosen One: The Prophecy Begins (Book 1)

Room of Realms and Prophecy

Someone probably went and dug this tunnel because it seem wider than when I first went here. I continued to fall through the tunnel like as if I'm in an unstable water park slide that haven't been cleaned for years or decades. To make things worse, I lost sight of the statue hand and I don't fucking know where the hell is it anymore. The fall really felt like ages before I eventually got tangled in vines.

I struggled to get out but eventually I managed to end up in the same hallway where I saw the tentacle creature thingy. My head feel very weird due to being hit too much by the rocks in the tunnel. Suddenly, I heard rumbling sounds on the floor. I looked down and was delighted to see the statue hand again, which is acting like as if it has swallowed a vibrator. Before I could pick up the hand, I heard someone call my name. I looked behind me and saw Robin and Harry, joyful to see me again.

"Can you believe that! Destiny always lets us together!" Robin declared happily.

"Well sure it is," agreed Harry.

I ran and hugged both of them. After letting go, I grabbed the statue hand, which has finally stopped vibrating. Desperate to know what causes the vibrations, I walked towards the thing that looks like an altar. Suddenly, I remembered what Paige said.

The first thing I looked for are traps at the ceiling. But all I see were strangely decorated patterns on the ceiling. Nothing suspicious. I checked the walls but they contain nothing but torches, more weird patterns, and a small vine crawling through. Still, no traps. Down on the floor, there's a carpet. But carpets don't look like they're made of stone. It's not a carpet, it's a pressure plate. Now I've figured how I fell in that damn chamber.

"Papa, can you carry 2 people at once?" I asked.

"I'm not sure but I'll give it a try," said Robin.

"Cool! Can you please fly me and Harry towards that altar thingy?" I requested.

"Why fly? It looks walkable."

"I found a trap on the floor."

"Oh..."

Robin transforms his arms to wings again and lets Harry ride on his back. To my shock, he suddenly grew another pair of arms (a/n: sorry I'm feeling so high rn qwq) and used them to carry me. I embraced the statue hand. All 3 of us managed to get near the altar thing without the floor disappearing. Suddenly, the statue hand started vibrating again, but more suspense.

"I CANT HOLD THIS THING ANYMORE!" I shrieked and accidentally dropped the hand, which stayed unharmed even after hitting the floor.

I tripped and hold on the small table for support but then I felt something sharp slice through my palms. I yelped and took my hands away. Blood sipped through the painful slits that formed on the palms of my hands.

"MY HANDS! NOOOOO!" I screamed in panic.

"Lemme fix them," suggested Harry.

Before I could offer my hands to him for healing, the floor beneath me curved and I stumbled. My hands touched the table again. This time, instead of something sharp slicing me, the patterns on the table glowed so bright I squinted my eyes. All the patterns on the ceiling and the walls glowed as well. The surroundings shook like an earthquake.

At last, the altar opened itself and revealed a huge chamber inside. It was lit by torches that have purple flames and a huge chandelier that hold 4 huge colorful candles. 4 beautifully decorated giant spheres float around. In the middle of the chamber was a huge statue of a man, who looks like a powerful wizard. One of his hands is missing. Scrolls and tablets add as a finish touch in the chamber. Dark green vines crawl through the walls.

"Oh my goodness!" shouted Robin. "We found the Room of Realms and Prophecy! It was supposedly be just a thing of myth and told as bedtime stories to children but turns out it's real!"

"What's so special about this room?" I asked.

"Powerful prophecies are formed in this chamber by a seer wizard and I'm certain you have descended from him," said Harry.

"This room also foretells fate of the 4 realms and gives any room guests ability to control the realms which is probably why blood password is required, I dunno how you managed to get us in here though," added Robin.

"Maybe because only wizards and people with that kind of blood can have the password?" I asked.

Suddenly, I hear rumbling on the floor. Turns out, it was just the statue hand, vibrating very violently. Harry and Robin embraced me close to them, probably in means of protection. I couldn't help myself but admire the 4 spheres and the beautiful ceiling, which seems as painting of a certain fascinating map. One of the spheres seem to be devoured by black mist.

The statue hand moved by itself and flew towards the statue of a wizard. It slipped itself into the handless arm of the statue. I backed away slowly as I watched the statue's eyes glow. The statue slowly started moving on its own. But before I could witness what this wizard statue would do to us, the vines grew thicker and restricted the statue. Another of those vines grabbed both my feet and lifted me off the floor.

"DADDY! PAPA! HELP!" I cried.

The vines crawled through my body and binded my arms and neck, making me choke. Robin grabs a knife and flies towards me to try and slice the vines but it was of no success because the vines got him as well.

"HE'S HERE!" shouted Harry.

"NOBODY MUST DISCOVER THE GREAT SECRET PLAN!"

I looked down and saw the damn clock man, Tony. My face was already starting to turn purple because of my whole body being squeezed by the vines. Robin was struggling as well. Harry confronted Tony, furious as fuck.

"AREN'T YOU SUPPOSED TO BE GONE?!"

"Unfortunately she failed," said Tony, showing a piece of torn paper.

Harry gasped in horror at the same time I gasped for air. Tony's eyes turned pitch black.

"Let me deal with them, my lord," he muttered.

The vines that was squeezing both me and Robin finally vanished. He quickly flaps his wings and catches me before I hit the ground. I inhaled and coughed due to the absence of air my lungs collected. The trauma of being strangled remained in my neck. The chamber opening closes on its own in a way that seem like a video being played backwards. The glow went for a minute and vanished.

"WE'RE TRAPPED!" cried Robin.

"Time runs out when you're being a mindless cuddy," said Tony.

He transforms in his object form and disappears into the wall. I'm not sure if he actually left or not because I still hear ticking sounds. Suddenly, I felt something tickly. I touched the back of my neck and was shocked to realize that my hair is growing faster than it should be. The bangs of my hair, which I didn't know existed, also grew over my eyes.

I looked over Harry and Robin. They were experiencing the same. Soon, I felt really weird. I looked at myself and noticed I'm having wrinkles all over my skin. Part of Harry's hair fell off easily. Some of Robin's feathers came off, along with his skin...mine also seems to go loose.

"WHAT'S GOING ON?!" I shouted in panic.

"I DUNNO!"

All 3 of us were rotting to a slow death. I couldn't even figure out how to get out of this horrible situation. The ticking sounds grew louder and clearer, causing my head to ache. I tried to force myself to have a vision to see what'll happen to us but nothing happens.
