Where are we?

what?....

(Duni's p.o.v)

  I ran just behind Dashile as we ran fast pace through this stone maze. I let her take the lead as she knew where we were going, wherever that was. “Dashile! Wait where are we going!?” I ask, quickly running out of breath “a safe spot I discovered. They don't know it exists” she replies as she grips my hand and throws us both around a sharp corner, based on the noise they where right behind us.

My chest was beginning to pound and my head was beginning to spin. “Don't pass out on me Duni!!” snaps my white haired friend. I get tossed into a confined space and Dashile slides in behind me, closing the makeshift entrance behind her. We had lost them.
 
“We made it” I mumble as I try to regain my breath, “is there anyway out?” I turn my head to her and let out the hushed question. “Potentially, but it's guarded by the strongest creatures in the group” her answer comes in a normal tone “you don't have to be that quite you know, they're pretty hard of hearing based on what I've seen." Dashile mumbles, peeking out of the to look around outside. It was quite again no more metal scraping.

  “come on, I'll show you" she motions for me to follow as she slips out of the little hideout. I follow as she leads us through the labyrinth, it was so cold in here, absolutely freezing actually. I just now noticed and the temperature was actually kinda nice after running like that.

  After a bit of walking in silence the sound of metal makes itself know again. But this time it's different. It isn't just scraping, instead the terrible noise of metal against metal is mostly quiet. It's nearly drowned by the sound of gentle thumps and a softer scraping. The sound was much nicer then the harsh sound of the metal of these creatures apparently large metal feathers working both with and against each other to carry them through the air.
 
  I haven't actually seen these creatures yet. I've only heard them and been given a short description by Dash. Speaking of Dashile. I am grabbed by the wrist and pulled behind a corner by her. She pulls us into a small hiding spot covered by vines I hadn't noticed before and motions for me to be quiet.

The soft thumping gets louder until I can see a faint outline outside of our hiding spot as the noise stops right before us. Both of us tense up, we can both hear it looking around.

Then it walks away, I let out a breath I had been holding and Dashile pulls herself out of the small crawlspace. With some help from her I get out as well and we start walking again. But she looks weirded out.
“what's wrong?” I ask her, putting a gentle hand on her shoulder as she turns to me.

“they don't patrol on the ground. Duni, it was looking for someone and it wasn't us"
