A Blood Red Top Hat

Chapter Twelve: Warrior's Wonders

I don't feel like resting, and I don't think I need any rest, just sitting on the ground and staring into the wall which is filled with glowing crystals, I wonder what will happen if someone deiced to pull one of those sparkles out of their sockets.

I couldn't stop the urge to leave, pushing myself off the stone cold ground and brush away the curtain like door, a warm breath passes through the opening, the huge fire, still burning. Guess it will never stop, probably the only thing that keep this cave warm.

I move, still hearing the tiny crashing sound of the water fall echoing. This is probably the first time I've ever take a proper look around, seeing the details that is carved into the rocks. And tiny sparkles shining at the roof like a clear night's sky with all the stars shining. I never realized this place is so beautiful. It is like fill with hope, filled with peace.

Filled with wonder.

But that feeling didn't last long, I am just another victim of this blood-lust game. There are still many people out there, waiting, or even planning. A way to kill all of us. And I've already know, how strong they are.

WisteriaMoon.

That is probably what she called herself before the fall of animal jam community. This new Wisteriamoon is different, she is far from it. Something dark raise inside of her,chewing, eating her up. Polluting her mind and every plant she walks by.

That's it, Wisteriamoon...no, whatever she is, she have the power to control plants, those vines we see are Wisterias, maybe she only can control wisterias. Just maybe.

I walk along the upper platform pass all those curtain-like doors, but who is Alpha?

If he is part of the game, which predictor he is, someone who looks so innocent in the outside but so dark in the inside, what am I talking about, all of them are innocent from the outside and dark on the inside.

But he is still different , like how Wisteriamoon are specialized to kill and injuries or bring fear to people's eyes. But he wanted to earn your trust, and then eliminates you.

But which animal jam youtuber is he...

"SPIRIT?!" Someone shouts, my heart races and run near the railings, the black haired boy.

"Yeah!? I yelled back and then seeing person dangling near him. I gasped, "who is that!?" I questioned while I quickly climbs down the cold ladder.

"I dunno." The girl drops down, unconscious, "she is another survivor from Alpha." He wrap his arms around her and lift her up once again, I took a quick look at her face, still young. Dirty blond hair with a few streaks of bright blond weaved into her hair. But that is not the main problem, she is bleeding. A lot. But there is another thing...she looks oddly familiar.

"Help me open that door in the far side." The black haired boy pointed with his hands and then go back to balance the girl. I turned to the direction he is pointing at, behind the fire, a huge door. Why haven't I seen it before. I rushed to the door and using all my force to push open the double stone door, a pond. Not just a slog of water in the middle of a cave, the water itself, it's sparkling, like magic.

"Come on." I am guessing he is whispering to her. He plop down near the side also gently putting the unconscious girl near the side. He go near the clean calm water, using his hand, he cupped a little big of water from the pond.

"Hope this works." He whispers to himself, he gently pour the sparkling water down on her wounds.

Nights are long without any mercy.
Please give this warrior enough energy.
For the wars thee fought.
For the power thee use.
Restore thine glory.
Restore thine light.

And give this warrior.
A light to guide by.

The water sparkles with the words he spoke, slowly, the wounds closes up, her skin whitens and reverse itself back to it's original youth.

"See, magic." He smiled to himself.

I look at him, never realized my jaws dropped. "How?" I barley whispered. "If you are wondering, this place." He open up his arms to gesture, "it's Epic Wonders."

"Yeah I know that." I cross my arms in front of my chest. "Look spirit, this is epic wonders, have you ever wonder why it's called that?"

I shook my head. "Because it sells all those expensive stuff that looks cool?"

"Nah."

"Then what is it?"

"This place, before this whole 'sucking people into games with killers' happened, this used to were the they keep all the lost warrior's wonders, and the warriors are every jammer that plays this game." He look into the pond, probably seeing his reflection. "Heh, warriors..." he smiled.

"Right also, I remembered that I hasn't told you my name yet. " he looks up, staring right at me.

"I was wondering how long for you to realize that." I smiled.

"Okay..."

"Right are you gonna tell me your name or not?"

"Oh yeah...my name is Wretched"
