Harry's p.o.v
My lungs burn as my legs carry me through the dark path of the maze.
The dogs have stopped chasing us but I can't seem to stop running.
My fear has taken control.
I carry Arieths limp body, her hand grips my shirt and in pain.
"Harry.." she whimpers making me come back to reality. The long dark path seems to go on forever.
I slow down and collapse on my knees, trying not to hurt Arieth. I gently lie her on the ground.
She winces in pain and grabs my hand.
Her blue eyes are filled with pain. I look down at her wound that still bleeding rather heavily.
I run my hands through my hair "shit." I whisper to myself. I quickly realize I have my backpack I rip it off my shoulders and look through it trying to find anything to help.
A white bandage wrap catches my eye along with a small canister with what looks like some type of ointment inside.
I look at Arieth who has slow tears running down her scared face. I give her a small smile gently placing my hand on her cheek.
"Hold still." I say softly before gently taking her leg into my lap and slowly put the ointment on the wound which in the shape of canine teeth. She winces grabbing my arm.
"Sorry." I whisper before grabbing the bandage and wrapping it around her leg decently tight.
"We need to get moving." She says trying to get up but I gently push her back down.
"You need to sit for a little bit." Her blue eyes find mine, they hold a mix of fear and determination. "I want to get out of here." She says.
In that moment I swear I hear something down the long dark pathway.
"Did you hear that?" I ask getting up teaching in my backpack to find a large machete type thing, gripping it in my hand.
"Harry we need to get out of here now." I nod before grabbing my backpack and helping her up. "Can you walk?" I ask and she nods.
I stand looking in both directions trying to figure the best way to go.
I grab Arieths hand guiding her through the dark path. She grips harder as she limps, but I'm too focused on the strange sounds coming closer.
As it echoes my paranoid mind can't figure out which direction it's coming from.
It almost sounds like a scraping noise.
I pull Arieth closer, as the sounds comes more loud.
My eyes go wide and I quickly cover her eyes as I see what's in front of me.
"Harry what is it?" She asks starting to shake. My mouth hangs open in fear as I look at the lifeless bodies hanging from the wall.
I realize it's the bodies of the past chosen.
Arieth shakes my hand off and screams. I fall to my knees, I've never seen a dead body before.
All I can picture is is being the next ones on the cold concrete wall hanging by nothing but chains.
We're in hell.
