I woke up groggy and went to stretch when I heard the familiar jingle of chains.
The last thing I remembered was Cierra driving me home.
Once my vision cleared I looked around and saw two other people.
Both were male, I could tell by the rough shadows their muscular bodies cast on the wall.
It looked like I was back in Aden's cave, but something was.....different.
It had this atrocious smell, for the life of me I couldn't figure out what it was.
For some reason it brought me back to Paris's party.
I heard the crackle of an old intercom as a cheery voice muffled through.
"Welcome to your first day of training elementals! There are four units inside the maze. Two elementals and two anthros"
Anthro?
"Each anthro is in a pad locked glass box. As you may have smelled, WB gas is being pumped into the maze. You have twenty minutes"
The end of the speech was signaled with a last crackle of the intercom.
I guess I have save something in twenty minutes? What happens after twenty minutes?
What? This makes no sense. The directions were so vague.
"Uggggh," a voice groaned lowly.
"Hello?," I asked.
"Yeah? What is it Cira?," a groggy Aden responded.
"Wake up!," I yelled at him.
"I'm up, I'm...........Wheeeere the hell are we?"
"I'd love to know that too," I retorted sarcastically.
I heard a low sizzling noise and saw the soft orange glow of a flame.
He was melting the chains!!
I heard the clank of metal on stone and was relieved when Aden appeared in front of me. His smug face was lit by a small fire ball in his hand.
"We have to stop meeting like this," I laughed.
"I don't mind," he smirked.
He leaned in to kiss me.
"Hold on there Romeo. Free me first," I snorted.
He thought for a few seconds and then said, "After you kiss me."
"Well played. I knew there was a reason I liked you," I grinned.
"Just one reason," he winked.
I leaned in and kissed him as best I could with being shackled to a wall.
"Now can you free me?," I laughed as we pulled apart.
"I don't think I want to," he chuckled.
"Hey love birds! Do you think you could save this for the honey moon! I don't know if I just speak for myself when I say this, but I'd like to get out of here!," Taylor screamed.
"Taylor?," I gasped.
What was he doing here?
