Against the Unknown

Chapter 6

~Georgia's POV~

Where am I? All I can see are clouds. I look down at my hands, but instead see nothing. It appears I'm just a spirit, rising up into the sky. But... I can't go any further! Something is stopping me! I look down again and squint. I'm directly above my dead body! I don't know why, but I've been left here on Earth as a spirit! It must be to help my lizard minions to destroy those fuckers! Let's do this. I float- I guess you could call it that- down towards my body and admire the arrows are lodged in my neck, the gaping hole in my forehead and the arrow attaching me to the tree. I must be honest, Kate and Anna would have been great recruits! They're talented! I look around at the other idiots, who are all chatting away and munching on lizard meat. I despise them all. I will do my best as a spirit to make sure they're being digested by tomorrow. I make my way into my old lair and hundreds of lizards crowd around me. They can still
see/sense me! I smile as I realise that I can no longer be stopped. Suddenly, a voice cries out to me. "Your highness! What are our orders?" I look around, confused. Then I realise it- the lizards are talking to me! I can understand them! Wait, does that mean...
"You must capture the humans and feed them to your mother!" I say. They all nod and run outside. "But bring back the girl who is tied up! She can help you!" I shout after them. There is no way we can fail now. The imbeciles shall die today, no doubt about that.

~Cerys' POV~

I'm sat here, as normal, staring at Elle. She is pure beauty. I've been wanting to tell her I love her for so long but never had the chance! And now, I'm finally going to do it! After all, we might be dead soon so what better time than now? I stand up and walk over to. She's standing up against a tree with her eyes closed. Oh what I would do to that girl... "Uh, Elle?" I say. She opens her eyes and smiles at me. Her smile sends shivers down my spine. I just want to leap on her and kiss her. "There's something I've been meaning to tell you..."
"Oh, God was it you who pooped in my hat!?" she says.
"No Elle, it was a bird we've been over this!" she looks confused. "Anyway..."
"What?" she asks. I freeze. I can't do this. I can't do this. I can't do-
"I love you!" I say quickly. Oh my God! I DID IT! Suddenly, my thoughts are cut off. Elle lunges at me and places her lips on mine. Tongues dance in a fiery tango. I've waited years for this moment. Finally it has come. Our saliva mixes and I sigh happily. But the pleasure does not last. The ground begins to shake and hundreds of lizards erupt from the cave, surrounding us. One of them frees Lauren and she runs towards the cave. Just as she's about to dive into the cave opening, Kate shoots an arrow straight into her eye. As she lands, the arrow gets pushed through her skull and brain and the arrow head, bloody and disgusting, is put on show. I heave at the sight and it takes a great deal of effort to keep my food from spilling out of my mouth. I feel something pulling my trouser leg and I'm slammed to the floor. I hear Elle fall next to me. I grab her hand and our fingers become intertwined. In just a few quick seconds, we've all been dragged underground. This is it for us...
