(TFT) SOLO 3 part 003



SOLO III
Demon World
Part 003

The stair bends to the right and ends abrubtly at a wall. In a gap between the last three steps and the wall is an iron lever That she kicks over toward the wall. A sound of metal chains clank somewhere and the mass of stone rises up in a steady jerking motion. There is a passage way going left and right. There are three teenage girls there with one candle. Fifteen and sixteen. They are excited and glad to see you.
  ''Rebecca!''
  ''Uncle!''
  ''You made it!''
They gather around and help her hold you up. They look sadly at your wound. They smile at your face. They look sadly at your wound. Rebecca steps back and holds her candle toward you. Her voice is empty and flat, it holds no emotion at all. ''He doesnt remember anything.'' The three young girls looks scared for a moment. Eyes darting around. A faint panic in the air. You feel like they may drop everything and run. The youngest one looks into your eyes for a moment. She moves closer. Her eyes are bright and clear. She is determined, and there is awareness in those eyes. She steps back.
  ''Uncle is still in there.'' she says.
They relax noticeably. Taking a stretcher from the wall they lay it down and help you to sit on it and lay back. The four of them take a handle each and lift from the knees with their backs straight. They set off at a quick pace down the tunnel. The one in front on the right with a candle, and Rebecca in the back on the left. Five minutes later you enter an enormous room. It is lit by seven candles and filled with children. Almost all of them are seven or eight years old. The smell of cooking fills the air and a long table has been set. Half of the children gather around in great excitement.
 ''Uncle.''
 ''Uncle.''
 ''Uncle, youre back!''
