Chapter 6. The East Wall

A hole opened and...

I had no idea whether or not this plan would work. But before I could think out my plan a dark shadowy hole started opening up. Another one of Unity's death traps. I had to get to the east wall.

I sprinted as hard as I could towards the east wall. The hole expanding, chasing me all the time. The moon shone down on the east wall opening up the Grimsons entry. Immediately a Grimsons leaped out of the escape but I dodged and it ran directly into the hole approaching.

This was my chance.

It was now or never.

So I took out my blade, eyed up the gap in the east wall, and jumped...

I saw behind moonlight rays dimming with the entry closing up. No going back now. I gripped my blade tightly waiting to flick my wrist at an incoming grimson. But nothing came. Not one.

Nothing.

Lights started flickering on. A long empty hallway appeared in front of me. Whispers telling me to go back that is was wrong being here, that it was a trap.

I kept going.

Unity wasn't going to get me now. But I spoke to soon. The girl that stumbled into my burrow. The one who betrayed me. The one from Unity. She appeared at the other end of the hallway, this time with only two other guards standing by her side.

She slowly started walking closer and closer to me, and stopped about halfway. She said to me "come with us" and that they wouldn't hurt me. Sadly for her that evil little smile gave it way. She knew I was the immune.

Before I could say no, a gun shot rang out down the long white hallway. A pool of blood started forming through the girls chest. A silver tear dripped down from her cold blue eyes. Then she dropped on the floor, eyes wide open. Dead.

I turned behind me to see who fired the deadly weapon. The gate behind me was open, and a person was standing there hooded. Hidden.
