Something more than reality : The Fire Iris

We're so close now

Zoe's POV

,, C'mon, we're so close to The Iris now Mia!" I whispered while slowly going forward. ,,Ok, but it's not that easy! These hallways are small as hell!"  Mia whisper-yelled back to me as she was somehow tangled in a buch of spider webs. (Oh god🕷️🙏😅)
As we were fighting our way forward suddenly, the walls shook and I felt how I was pushed forward violently and I could barely catch up myself  but I somehow did.,,You alive?" I heard Mia's voice from somewhere behind me.,, Yes..... or I think so, you alright back there?" I asked as I was trying to  get a look of what happened.,, Yeah... But something happened. The ceiling like fell down or something! I think we'll have to crawl our way outta here!"  I hope that there's nothing wrong going on up there...

Mia's POV
So we got a plan and everything!
We made that plan faster than I expected but It's ok I guess.
,,Let's go. " I said and grabbed Zoe's arm. The plan is that Eric and Jane will distract the guards till all the others get in. Quite primitive, but hopefully it'll work. We snuck past some trees and buches leaving the idiots to their idiotic businesses.
As all four of us were sneaking past some guards, we soon heard shouting and cheering from somewhere the entrance of the ruins.'I guess Eric just showed up.' I thought. We used the chance and got closer to a small set of threes. When we snuck past without being noticed, I think we all realized something.,,Where do we get in? "
Yeah in all that rush we forgot to think about that tho. We all loked around when Chris whispered:,, I think I found it." pointing to the direction. There was a small window, across which ran metal bars which were as I see just simply stuck into the ground so it should be very easy to silently remove them. I nodded.'Ok, here we go.' Zoe helped me with slowly removing the metal bars and setting them aside.,, Uhh... boys this space is pretty small. I don't think that you'll be able get in there. " I said worried. If they stay here they'll probably get caught.,,No worries, we'll find another way in." Said Ethan smiling at me.,, We will? " Asked Chris earning a killer glare from Ethan.,,O-Ok.." Chris retreated. I gave Ethan a kiss on the cheek and slowly slid down the tiny window.'Damn this thing is small! Even for me!' Luckily I didn't get stuck. I looked around and there were no guards around.,, It's clean." I said. I heard Zoe say something but for my it was kinda incoherent and waited for her to slide down too. She slowly slid down as me saying:,,Good luck,,.
,, Let's go."
,, Let's go. "
And so we did.

Chris's POV

Great. Mia and Zoe are already inside and that's good. But still we need to find a way in.,,There must be something here." (Ethan has the writing style like Mia when him and Chris are alone. Same as Chris who has Zoes writing style. 🕷️By spidy)
Ethan said as we crouched in the bushes.,, A back door something?" I asked hoping to find something.,, Are you good at climbing? "Asked my lil bro.,, Weird question to ask in  them middle of an enemy camp. But yeah... Why?" I saw him looking upward. I looked there and there was a small window.,, Perfect. " We said in union.

Zoe's POV

We walk in a small and not very spacious hallway. Hallway? I think it's more like a hidden way or something.
Mia is somewhere behind me walking so silent that I'm paranoicly looking back to see if she's still there or not. (#me). The hallways are getting darker. In the bigginig there were tiny windows that gave even if a tiny, but still some light. Soon we passed those too.,, Mia soon we won't be able to see shit. " I said. Mia took  something out of her (WATERPROOF) bag and handed it to me.,,What is that?"I said as she took out another one. ,, Slightly bend it till you hear a crack. And then shake it up." She said. So I did as I heard the crak the fluid in the small plastic tube lit up in a bright neon blue light. I shook it up guickly and soon I held a fully functioning neon light.,, Where the hell did you get this thing?" I asked as I watche Mia do the same.,, I brought it from Earth and when I found my bag back there I thought it could be handy.Lucky it is from plastic, else it would've got wet and could be used for nothing by now."
She said by now holding her bright blue neon light.
I nodded and we continued our way inside the castle.

Ethan's POV

We somehow managed to climb inside without getting noticed by guards. Thanks to the vegetation right next to the castle.,, Chris I don't think we'll get in there without getting noticed. " I said.
,, You mean we should kill someone and go as guards do you?"
,, Yup, I do. "

Finally we can get inside and try to find Zoe and Mia.

Mia's POV

You needed to see Zoe's face when I handed her the glowing stick. Haha oh God. Anyway there seems to be a whole buch of secret corridors here.
Suddenly a wave of something hit me like a slap in the face.,, You felt that? "
,, What the hell?" Zoe asked looking back at me.,, I think we're getting closer to The Iris. " I whispered. Zoe just nodded.

And now here's another potential problem.We came to a point where the hallway narrows into a small space.,,I think we could make it. But we'll have to go side ways in." Zoe said with a sight. 'Then I guess we should get going' I thought as I nodded.

Chris's POV

We got into the castle pretty quickly. I'm quite surprised that no guards noticed us. Yet we walked past a few.
We came to a small hall like place. When the whole castle shook under us.,, What WAS that?" I asked. Some guards ran into the room and then out in an other way. One of them shouted back.,, C'mon guys we need to get out before they get to The Iris!" Oh God The Iris!,, Ok we'll be right there!" I shouted back.,, The Iris is defending itself! If they get too close the whole place comes down! " Ethan said when  the  suddenly....

Mia's POV

Oh God, I'm still in a huge fear that these rocks will fall on us. But I'll try not think of that. As we crawled we heard footsteps thumping above us.
As I looked up I saw that there was a weirdly shaped rock right above me.
,, Zoe look!" I whispered.,,What I can't turn around!"  Ob yeah small space.,, Maybe we can get out of here."
I said as I tried to push the rock upward. I don't know how this idea came to my mind. But as I pushed I felt the rock move. I tried to push with all my strength and the rock moved more upward!,, Damn this thing is heavy!" I whispered while still pushing it. After a short while the rock finally moved up and I could push it to the side.,, Back up I found a way out!" I said. But then I froze. I heard movents. I slowly crawled just enough up so I can crouch. As I heard them get closer I jumped up and saw.... Chris and Ethan in a Guard uniform.
,, Well fuck you too, boys you gave me a heart attack!!"
