Chapter 18(The Mayday)
Grandma, so tell us how to conquer whatever may come our path in the forest, knowing it's full of dangers... Catherine asked.
Why am I feeling like this mission is a suicide mission? My heart keeps pounding faster,Perry said freakishly.
"Hey,look at me ! Nothing is ever going to happen to you okay!!! We will stick together,fight out fears and rescue your parents. We are coming back alive,Percy said with a smile.
"As I told you earlier my darlings,I have made the portions ready and remember you must stick together in this mission and never let your hearts weary. The dangers you will encounter can change your entire perspective about evil and pure."
" You must be very careful in this journey."
The portion will help you stay alive and strengthen you completely for the tasks ahead,make sure to not drink the entire bottle at once,you must drink little till you notice you sure do need energy again.
"Do not consume totally."
Your weapons are ready!!! Grandma said as she opened a door in the hallway of the house leading to her magic room.
Wow!!! Grandma,how did you in possession of all these ? Exclaimed Percy.
I do feel it's not wrong if we all oppugn to know about it....or would it be wrong ?Catherine questioned.
"My dear,you will know it all as you begin your adventure."
The journey is still far and you need to be there in the forest in no matter of time before it is nightfall,or else it will be difficult for you to find your way through quickly.
"If you are sensitive and not weary in your search,always remember that the forest portend danger. So stay attentive to your surroundings always and be careful."
Okay,all said well Ma. What is the next thing... Catherine replied.
Go select any weapon of your choice and bring them all to me.
Catherine's eyes caught a beautiful and ancinet bow and she paced further quickly to pick it up,the arrows has a shinning particle laced around it's head,lastly she picked up knives,sword and a long range gun.
Perry chose a sword, as well with it's shield and then eventually picking up a sharp two-faced arc head hammer.
While Francis and Percy got themselves guns,knives,explosives and swords each.
The preparation of the journey looked as though it were of ancient war lords, who were going to take spoils of another country, as they all got themselves armed for the journey.
Lastly,grandma told them to drop it all in a big round jar filled with a rainbow like water portion,so she could cast spell on it all. She gave them each five bottles of the water magical portion she made,reminding them again how to reserve the drink for the journey.
To the right corner of the room is a small door opened slightly.
"Is that a bath tub? Francis asked."
Yes,it is ....you have a sharp eye to have espied it from here. Grandma remarked.
It's your means of transportation to the underworld.
Haha... scoffed Percy. Are you saying a bath tub will transport us all into the supernatural?Percy asked mockingly.
It's your door way to access the supernatural portals,you will see it's power soon.
The jar which the weapons were thrown into began to give bubbles and a piercing sound, then boom!!! The jar got dried up of it's magical portion a d then grandma told them all to take back their weapons.
"Soon enough they all walked to the bath tub room,it has four tubs,each one to his tub. As soon as they were settled in it,grandma began to make incantations and they all began to feel dizzy ...she continued chanting.
Slowly opening their eyes,they saw themselves on a narrow road with tall trees and a spooky cloud.
"Where is this place? Catherine shivered."
" Well,we are in the forest of nowhere,Francis retorted."
The forest looked very scary,with strange sounds and humming birds in distance....the sound of crows could be heard as well. Without much ado they began to move ahead into the dark forest.
Do we have a torch? Percy asked.
Let me check the bag pack... Perry responded as she searched the bag.
"I found it."
She switched the torch on and they continued further into the forest with so much fear and trembling in their hearts.
"I thought Grandma said, we could make it early before nightfall ? Francis asked in curiosity, or can anyone explain why it is dark."
This is another world brother, whatever you see here might be illusional or real, the goal is to get them out of here alive without getting ourselves killed... Percy replied.
All through the way they kept having a chit chat till their eyes caught a glimpse of light in distance.
They hurriedly paced towards it, the light was so bright they covered their eyes just so they could see...once they went through, it was as though they descended down a high cliff as they went through the light portal.
Urghh!!! (Heavy thudding) Aww, my back hurts Perry cried out, after the fall.
They all stood up and looked around them and saw they were in the midst of pile of dead human skulls and bodies, scattered around the field.
Wait!!! Did a massacre occur here?
"This is a huge disaster, an entire village slaughtered or what. "
Looks like someone just left this place, here is a fresh fire put out... Catherine remarked.
Hurry, let's take cover we are exposed to danger and don't know what's lurking around.
They moved swiftly across the fields, so as to find a hiding place.
They saw a little hut, did a surveillance of the environment and saw no one was inside. They took advantage of it and did and made a few arrangements quickly so as to settle down and plan before night fall.
Did anyone still wonder or rumminate on why we first arrived in a dark forest ? Catherine asked with a wondering heart.
"I mean how do we first arrived in a dark forest, then go through a light portal and then find ourselves in a village full of dead bodies." That's weird.
A rattling sound was heard at the back of the hut.
" What's that Perry whispered."
