The Slitherine

Chapter Ten- Fourteen

(Still in the Darkness dimension)

Calem: "Well, what is it then?"

Sky: "It's behind you."

(Calem turns and hits whatever was behind him, hard)

?: "First of all, ow, and second, I'm not even here to hurt you."

(Calem glares at the figure)

?: "You fell in here, right?"

Sky:"Yeah..."

?: "I'll bring you out in a second."

(On the surface back in their own world)

Calem: "Why are we in a ditch?"

?: "Because I'm going to 'ditch' you guys here."

Sky: "..."

Calem: "..."

?: "..Yeah, bye.."

(The figure leaves, after killing everyone's spirits)

Calem: "What...was that?"

Sky: "Something..either way, who was that?"

Calem: "Stephanie."

Sky: "Who?"

Calem: "It wasn't actually her, I just want to go look for her."

Sky: "One of your cousins?"

Calem: "Maybe..I can't really remember anything."

Sky: "We should get out of this hole-"

Calem: "Ditch."

Sky: "...Yeah, that."

(Daniel's apartment)

(Stephanie notices Daniel's expression)

Stephanie: "What's up?"

Daniel: "I heard a voice.."

Scarra: "Her."

Secra: "Our creator."

-End of Ten-

Xavier: "What do you mean 'Our'?"

Secra: "She made all of us."

Scarra: "Using her mind."

Cole: "So.. we're all figments of some girl's imagination?"

Korva: "Exactly."

Stephanie: "So you're all of our ancestors, huh?"

Scarra: "Correct."

Xavier: "And you're not going to question how he got here, why?"

Stephanie: "We shouldn't be questioning people that are more advanced than us too often."

(Daniel hears knocking at his door, and answers it, as he wasn't conversing with the others)

Daniel: "So you're Calem?"

Calem: "How do you know my name?"

(Daniel lets Calem and Sky into his apartment)

Sky: "Why did you.."

Daniel: "I trust you."

Calem: "Still, how do you know my name?"

Daniel: "I'm in contact with our 'creator', apparently, and she said you were a coward."

Calem: (Why do I exist?)

'Creator': (Because you're part of me. A part of my mind set, as well as personality, my cowardice and questioning.)

Calem: (So basically your inner selves?)
