Multifandom

Chapter 18

"Cade?" Julia asked, shuffling along in the dark, calling out his name every so often.

Her voice grew more and more panicked, more desperate and more afraid.

"Please talk to me!" Julia called out, her voice echoing in the darkness.

"Julia!" Cade called out, "I've finally found you," his voice was coloured with relief.

Relief spread though out Julia's body too. "Where are we?" She asked, tensing up again.

She heard Cade's shifting and shuffling, "Uh, well, we're sort of in the labyrinth." Cade said sheepishly.

"The what?!" Julia exclaimed, dread pumping through her veins as her breathing quickened. "Why are we here? You have got a lot of explaining to do," She demanded.

Cade ran a hand through his hair and closed his eyes, seeming tired. "We're here because of the riot that's been happening within the Fandoms. I actually had no intention of shoving us both into the labyrinth, but hey, I managed to achieve that without realizing."

"The rioting?" Julia asked, her voice coming out as a whisper. "What's going on Cade?"

"I'm not actually sure of what happened, but it had stuff to do with the Multifandom people. It was apparent that someone discovered a person with extraordinary powers, coming from a supernatural world, it's gotta be quite serious, and everyone is freaking out and trying to get rid of the Multifandom, sort of like Jeanine Matthews trying to get rid of the divergent." Cade said.

The blood in Julia's veins ran cold and froze. "I think they were talking about me," she whispered, waves of chills rolling down her spine.

"You?" Cade asked, momentarily confused, then the realization dawned on him, "Oh, holy Hera, well aren't we in a heap of trouble." He swore under his breath.

Julia shook slightly, because of both terror and of fury, "And I think I know who it was that gave away my identity."

"Who is it?" Cade asked, his voice dangerously quiet. "Because when I find them, I will personally deal with them."

Julia shook her head. "It's Zoe."

The anger and frustration was wiped clean off of Cade's face at that name. A bewildered and surprised expression took its place. "Zoe?" He asked, his voice hushed, he sounded confused. "No it can't have been, I know Zoe, and I'm sure that she wouldn't do such a thing,"

Julia sighed in exasperation and folded her arms across her chest, frustrated. "I'm telling you, it was her. I accidentally gave away the fact that I was blessed by all three of the big three, and she demanded that I left. She had that icy cold look in her eyes that would've blasted anyone to pieces, so I left." She said, doing her best to explain the situation. "I guess the riot was partially my fault, so I'm not going to play the blame game."

Cade sighed, giving up. " So where have you been for the last two days?" He asked her.

"I've been in the Selection fandom. They took care of me while I was there." Julia stated. "I have to get back in three or four days though, so let's get out of this labyrinth quick."

A flash of hurt and sadness appeared in Cade's eyes, but it left as fast as it came. "Alright," his voice sounded stiff, like he wasn't agreeing with her, but deciding to go along with it anyway. "We'll just have to try to get out somehow."

They placed their hands on the wall they were next to and followed it. Suddenly the wall vanished with a poof. Julia looked at Cade in confusion. His face paled.

"Remember when Percy and Annabeth decided to follow the wall and then it disappeared?" Cade asked.

"You mean Percy, Annabeth, Tyson and Grover," Julia corrected. Then she realized what Cade meant and turned a shade whiter. "Oh gods, are we going to be stuck here forever?" Julia asked.
