Into the Darkness

4

"Heeellllpppp!" I awaken to the sound of a familiar voice screaming, surrounded by darkness. "Lyra?" I yell into the dark.

"Maya? Where are you?" I hear a voice. I try to move my arms but I'm restrained with something hard but stickey, then I realise I'm naked. "I'm here. Where are you?" I call out.

"I'm in a corner somewhere." the familiar voice calls back. "Where are we?" I strain against my restraints when I feel something cold slither up my body up to my neck and then a stinging pain and the feeling is coldness moving up my body is gone. "There's something here." I yell out but all I hear is silence "Lyra?" Still Silence. Then I hear a spluttering and a sound of flesh being ripped. Oh my God. Oh my God. Oh my God. I'm about to die. I think to myself. Naked, surrounded by darkness. "Who's there?" I call out again. "What have you done to my friends?"

Then I hear the sliding of feet dragging across the floor. "Who is there?" I scream and just before I yell again cold, wet, slippery hands grasp my throat. "Now, now." We wouldn't want attract any visitors." It speaks in a cold raspy voice but a smooth voice like the hiss of a snake. And as soon as it speaks I feel the cold racing down my body. The lights switch on and I see a figure with a melted face of black it's body moved like it was made of sand and it had no eyes just razor sharp teeth formed in a psychotic smile. I still feel a stinging pain at the back of my neck. "Let me go." I scream 

"No, no, no. We can't let you go. You see, you're important to us." The lips move but still maintain their creepy smile. I try and take off the restraints. "Okay if you want to disobey fine. Release her!" The restraints slip off like water and I fall onto the floor. "Give her 50 bites." I feel a sharp pain in my back like a needle and I realise it's a snake. Millions of snakes slither all over my back giving me piercings with their teeth. "That's enough. Lift her up and take her to the host." I'm carried by the snakes and I wince at the pain. We enter a small room covered in tiles with a table in the middle, the snakes place me on the table.

"Hello, Maya."

I'm sorry this chapter is a bit weird but I'm feeling a bit sick. But I still wanted to write another chapter. Please vote and comment on how I can continue this story.
