We're back to Bridget's point of view.

We arrive in Hell, I think... My throat hurts as I cough loudly, everyone, Sabrina, Roz, Harvey, Theo and me are coughing. The water in my throat is salty and I feel the roughness of the land underneath me. Sand.
I hear moans in the background but I don't care, I need to know if my friends are okay.

"Everyone okay?" I ask.
"Yeah." Theo replies, stopping halfway through his cough.
Harvey then look around him and says, "Wait, so, Hell is a beach?..."
'Brina and I turn around and see a stone that says 'THE SHORES OF SORROW.'
"The shores of Sorrow..." Me and 'Brina whisper to the rest of the gang.
Theo stands up. "Guys,...look at those," He points at where all the moaning is coming from, "...what are those?..."

We all turn around and look. Just then, I hear a deep, clear voice, a man's voice. He said, "They're the souls of the damned..."
We all turn to look at him, he's blonde, with a white shirt, opened, wide enough to see his chest and some brown-ish trousers. I feel like.... like I've seen him before. He's like the guy from my dreams, the ones I'd have on every one of my birthdays but they amplified on 16th birthday, I'd have 1 every week.
"... they drown as the tide rolls in... over and over... for all eternity... " He continues.

"Hi. We're looking for Lilith." Sabrina says.
"Uh... Madam Satan. Queen of Hell... she's in Pandemonium, if you happen to know the way?" I ask him. He stares at me, in shock, then breaks eye contact and looks away and points to another direction.

"All blood flows to Pandemonium..." We all look at a path full of blood, alotta blood, "Follow the blood-red road where it flows and there you'll find the throne of Hell..." He says looking back at 'Brina, then me.

"Thanks." 'Brina says as he runs his fingers through his hair and smirks.
"And you are?..." I ask.
"Never step off the road..." He says flirtaciously. I fur my eyebrows, look at 'Brina. She shrugs and I look back at him and guess what? He's smirking.... AGAIN!

He looks me up and down before saying, "It's clever you're wearing dead men's shoes, though, any demon worth is his salt can smell mortal flesh a mile away..."

I think, Oh really! Guess what, I'm not a mortal! So you ain't worth your salt!

" 'Come on, let's go...' Sabrina says, already walking away and that weird but familiar surfer dude goes back to his sand castle. I look back at him and so does he. I know you, stranger surfer dude, I just know that I know you. I don't know how but I just know you..

Hope you've enjoyed the book so far. Next chapter is The Field of Vines, Lilith's point of view and Nick's point of view...
