The Hunt for Transionions- Cavern Dweller Series Book 1

Chapter 4

I blinked my eyes open to find that I was alone.

here was my chance to get away from Greath. As much as I wanted to understand all that had happened for our kind until this point: I wanted to be free to go back to the world where the humans dwelled.

My heart rate skyrocketed as I sat up from the sleep. I was no longer in my home cavern's "Bed" of piled rocks. I was on a cot like shelf in a gemstone decorated cavern...

My mind was begging to get its bearing back: enough to begingto awaken from my sleepy stupor to realize that Greath had done something to me in my sleep, and then brought me here...

here was a beautiful coral sea cavern with strange symbols (much like crop circles that i had seen in science magazines) along the sides with large odd shaped gemstones. There appeared to be of various sizes and types, but each symbol was all created of "dot to dots" of a particular type of stone. I believe i could pick out Tigers Eye, Amethyst, Black Obsedian, Rose Quartz... a few others. 

I realized that I also now wore several beaded necklaces that were gathered together as a choker. Each necklace was a single string of the same bead- and I appeared to have a set of each kind of gemstone that aligned with the symbols that were on the walls. I free floated downward to begin to make my way through the cavern when my body was jarred backward.

"What the hell!?"

I noticed that I also had bracelets and anklets of "hematite" that glowed faintlyurple, but then return to normal shiny metallic color. It was almost an luminescent effect that was subtle, but it happened as i approached the area that had me jarred backward again. Like hitting an invisible form of trampoline.

Bewildered I observed the jewelry before attempting to "slide" or simply break them off.

They weren't budging. I decided to re attempt to explore the cavern - just to leave...

Again as I approached the way I was thrust backward, the jewelry glowing brightly. It tempered down, then returned to norm as i refrained from my continued attempts to leave.

"Greath!" I screamed... I could hear my echo and my telepathy link sear. 

I was beginning to panic... Within 24 hours my world has changed from free to captor. Was this why my parents raised me and hid me away as a human? Was Greath really this "Knight" called to protect me? Am I just being naive to the whole ordeal?

What is the truth to all of this, and what was going to happen to me now.

I screamed in rage due to my unanswered questions, emotions, and everything I could think of. spinning out of control. Like the never ending brainstorm that my english professor would inform me had way too many options to work with. My poor imagination had to many options to work with- "Funnel" those thoughts down or you will go insane with the possibilities, Yilak"

I wanted answers. I wanted my freedom. it seemed to me that i was going to be stuck in my new prison and over what felt like forever, my voice echo grew hoarse... I began to truly despise Greath. 

I was such a fool... so gullible. I NEED to get out, get away, and get back to the land. 

At this decision I calmed my fear to the best of my ability to returning to the sleep state for meditation. I needed to have control of mycurrent state in order to attempt a telepathy link to Greath. If I could connect to him as he so easily could connect to me than i could hopefully get out of my current prison?

Or at least have him "feed" me more answers for my mind to wrap around about the current situation.

Or simply just cut it out so that my plans and attempts wouldn't be thwarted in just going back to being human to live my  life. 

Greath being called to protect me.  18, now transformed... and now beginning to realize how truly naive I was to the ways of the Sea Cavern ways.... I was quite content now to end my need to return to the sea. No longer would i need to "shed" my skin to grow. From my understanding. My escape to the land will be my renewed freedom.

My escape from the sea will more than likely be my final time ever to be among it ever again.
