I didn't even realize I had passed out until I felt myself slowly waking up. Everything around me was dark, and when I placed my hand in front of me, my palm came in contact with something soft and squishy. Eww.

But I had this strange feeling of familiarity. I felt like it been there before. And my dream seemed strangely blurry. A blur. A flash of gold. A shake. None particularly bad,but not good either.

I waited for a few minutes for my eyes to adjust. When that didn't happen, I started to feel my way forwards on my own. Then I came across a body. And tripped on it.

When I hit the floor, I was very surprised to find it wasn't floor. It was a soft, squishy mush that had now pushed am over my favourite jacket.

"Ugh! That was $50 You stupid price of s**t!" I yelled, kicking the sludge in the side. I was very surprised to find I couldn't pull my leg back.

Then, I fell to the floor. The mush seemed to be pulling me in, and I was sinking in it. I failed again the floor for something to grab unto, but it was slippery and covered in slime. I managed to hold unto a small ledge on the floor but it was too late. The sludge had crawled up my neck and in moments my head was completely submerged.

I couldn't breathe. I forced myself to hold my breath but my lungs were starting to hurt. Everything was cold. I felt wet and damp, but I knew whatever it was, it wasn't water. My arms flailed around, but it was like fighting against water. I couldn't hit anything.

Then, suddenly, it was over, and I was being spat out unto a marble floor. I stood up, only to slip on myself and fall back down. The smell of rotting flesh hit me like a brick wall and I resisted the urge to faint.

"Finally. She made it." A voice said to my left. A hand grabbed my arm, pulling me up, and soon I came face to face with a woman.

Upwards, she was completely naked, with a beautiful body. But waist and below, she was a snake. My first thought was Medusa, but then the name came to me.

Sha was the ancient Greek godess of slime.

Echidna.

And I puked on her. Everything I had been holding in from the moment I saw Shawn reveal his gruesome stomach to the moment I felt the slime all over my body. Everything came out in a mix of bacon and egg all over Echidna's torso.

She stepped back ( if it could be called stepping, with her snake tail) and hissed at me. She flicked her had sideways and I felt myself being thrown to the side like a useless ragdoll. My head smashed into the wall and I groaned as a wave of Pain hit me. I felt something warm trickle down the side of my face. Blood.

A slow hissing sound echoed from around me. But I don't need to look to know what those were. Drakaina. Beautiful women with the lower body of snakes. Echidna's followers. Bit that wasn't the worst of it. A slow rumbling sounded around me. My clothes were sticking to my body and I had a feeling it wasn't because of the slime. I was sweating. A lot.

But then one tiny little fact popped into my head and I gasped dramatically. Suddenly, I found myself staring into the eyes if a beautiful woman with bright, but eyes, ebony hair and full, red lips. She hissed at me and motioned to the side with her arm.

The other women, who I guessed were her army, grabbed my limbs and began to drag me away. But that tiny fact remained in my head.

Echidna.

Wife of Typhon.

And Typhon was trapped under a volcanoe.

And I was under a volcanoe.

Levesque decided he didn't like Aura. She had this air of authority about her, and was way too proud for her own good. The bad thing was, she had a LOT of things to be proud of. That, and she had practically declared war on him.

First, she had tried to impress Frankie with her amazing archery. But, Lev had stood her up with his amazing archery skills. Since a young age, Lev had found himself to be amazing at archery. But he had never bothered with it. It was something that came naturally.

Next, she had tried to lead them on with her amazing direction skills. But while she was still trying to read the sun, Lev had finalized that they were next 6 miles west to the volcanoe.

But that had confused him. One second he's right next to volcanoe, so much in fact that it chokes him, and the next moment he's 6 miles away from it. But what really sent his alarm bells ringing was when he did a headcount.

"Umm, guys...where's Stephanie?" He asked.

And suddenly, all eyes were on him. Aura looked round, then her eyebrows knit together as she realized he was right. Frankie stopped, staring at a spot between Leg and Devon. Then, suddenly, she turned left.

"She went that way." She declared.

Aura glared at her like, that's my job. But if Frankie noticed her, she paid her no heed.

"We need to go get her. And fast." Then with that, she took off running.

Aura might have failed to impress them with her archery and direction skills, but she (unlike them) was obviously adapt to running in smoky areas.

When they finally reached the base of the volcanoe (read: when they finally caught up with Aura), the volcanoe was beginning to spew smoke.

Frankie pointed to a cave nearby and nodded. Devon, who seemed to understand whatever stupid sign she qmwas giving, took a few steps forwards. He looked around the cave before nodding back.

Frankie didn't wait, she went full on sprint into the darkness. Devon didn't hesitate and ran after her. Levesque sneaked a look at Aura, and the look in her eyes told him they had come to an agreement. They both turned to the cave, and ran in.

Aura in front, obviously.

I was really getting sick of the constant rumble of the volcanos. It was like the earth would shake and open randomly whenever Typhon wanted to take a breath, and honestly it was beginning to annoy me.

Not to mention the heat. God's, the heat. Honestly, the heat could kill. And it had. Apparently, after staying in there for too long, the Drakaina would randomly explode into golden dust. After a while, it had become so hot it hurt to keep my eyes open. You know when they say you get used to the hear after a while? Well, it's a lie.

My skin was gross and sweaty and my shirt was starting to stick to my body. And the chains. They had started off cold and uncomfortable, but now they were not and uncomfortable, and I was pretty sure I was getting blisters on my wrists.

I turned my neck round, trying to ease the cramp I had gotten. I was about to ask if I could get a pillow for it (I knew they would say no, but it wouldn't hurt to ask), when the drakaina in front of me exploded. I gasped, then started to cough because golden dust was NOT a nice treat.

But when I looked up, there was no one there. The chains were not burning as much, but when I looked down, they were loose. I easily slipped my hand out and stood up. Was it just me or did everything suddenly feel cold. I looked round. The lava was still flowing, and the steam was still puffing, but it had a greyish tint to it.

I took a step forwards, and fell forwards into nothing.

That is such a filler I'm actually cringing. Someone kill me now.

Byeeeeeeee.
