Chapter 18: Little Girl

Darkness.That Was All Sammy JR Could Perceive That Night.Then She Opened Her Eyes.Still Darkness.Am I Dead? She Thought.She Decided To Retrace Her Steps.She Remembered Wandering Into The Cave,Then She Blacked Out.She Also Remembered Waking Up Directly Before Falling Off A Ledge.Maybe I Hit My Head Harder Than I Thought...Sammy JR Heard Rustling From Behind Her.She Froze.The Rustling Became Louder As It Started To Sound Like Footsteps On The Rough Cave Floor.Sammy JR Held Her Breath.The Footsteps Stopped Right Behind Her.'Hello?' Somebody Called Out.Sammy JR Stayed Silent. Suddenly,A Loud Buzzing Noise Rang Out Inside The Cave.With A Look Of Shock And Horror Sammy Realised It Was The First Few Bars Of Smash Mouth's All Star,A.K.A Her Ringtone.'Kill Me.Kill Me Now..' She Whispered.'Oh Wait!' She Said,Suddenly Louder.'I Am About To Be Killed,By A Serial Killer,In A Cave,Because Now They Know Where I Am! Somebody Once Told Me Nothing About This Situation!' 'W-who's There??" The Other Voice Responded,Sounding Almost Scared.Sammy Tried Getting Up,However,She Failed.Miserably...Suddenly,She Felt Something Touch Her Fluffy Hair.And Again.Aaaand Again.'Soft...' They Whispered.'Please Go Away...' Sammy Blurted Out.Suddenly, The Er...Something Leapt Back.Sammy Quickly Sat Up.She Turned Round And Leapt Back Just Like The Thing.She Looked Up.A Little Girl...Not Really Though,She Looked About 15,However,Her Blonde Hair Was Tied In Scruffy Pigtails,And She Was Wearing A Faded And Tattered Princess Dress.'H-Hi...' Sammy Muttered.'Hello...' She Responded.Her Voice Wouldn't Be Out Of Place On A British Child.'I-i'm Tufty.' 'Sammy..' Sammy Said,Getting Up.I Have To Be Hallucinating...Sammy Thought.'H-How Do You Stay Alive Here?' No Response.Then Suddenly,'Rocks.' 'Rocks?' 'Rocks.'
