Ch. 4: Exhausted
Seto's P.O.V
I flick the lever down and the aether portal gets covered up. I start my walk down the five flights of steps. Why did Notch make it five flights of stairs? Why? Why not one? I hate walking down these. Then someone crashes into me. I feel the steps stab my back and arms and the person on me making the pain worse. I groan slightly and Farla meets my eyes.
"Farla, watch where your flying." I groan. She gets off me and I sit up on the steps.
"I'm so sorry Seto. I didn't expect for you to be back so soon." She said.
"Okay, but still." I said.
"You okay?" She asks.
"I'm fine, just tired." I said standing back up. She lands on the steps.
"I'll just walk the rest of the way then." She said. She walks pass me and then stops and grabs my arm suddenly. "Wait. Wait. Wait. Wait. Wait."
"Farla I haven't moved yet." I said. She comes down the steps and pulls put something.
"Before I forget." She said. She hands me a silver chain necklace. "We all have one now. All five of us."
"Thanks." I said. She lets go of my arm.
"Okay. Now I'll stop annoying you." She said starting to walking up the steps. I put the necklace on and walk down the steps. My head hurts now, must have hit it on the step. My communicator beeps and I pull it out. I put it on my ear and answer it.
"Hey." Ariana said over communicator. I stop. Okay, this is starting to get slightly annoying. I continue walking.
"Hey Ari. What do you need?" I ask.
"Can you come to my place real quick?" She asks. I stop and look down seeing only one more flight to go. I sigh kind of annoyed.
"Is this important because I almost at the bottom of the steps to go into the portal room and then the Guardian Temple." I said.
"Sort of. Please Seto?" She begs.
"AArrrriiii, I'm really exhausted and I just walked down four flights of stairs and I don't want to go back up those four flights. I want to pass out on my bed for a few days." I said.
"PPPPPllleeeeaaasssseeeee." Ariana begged. I groan.
"Can I sleep at your house then? Because I don't think I'll make it back here before I pass out somewhere else." I said. She doesn't speak for a moment.
"Umm..s-sure." She stuttered. I grab the railing and turn around.
"I'm coming then. Give me a few minutes." I said as I start walking back up the many and many of stairs. I hate stairs.
*Few Minutes later*
I walk inside Ariana's place but I don't see her anywhere. I stand there waiting and trying to keep my eyes open. Which is proving to be difficult. Ariana walks into the room.
"What was so important?" I ask. She hugs my center and her head against my chest.
"You've been seeming tense lately." She said. I can't help but smile slightly. I put my arms around her.
"It this really why you made me walk back up four flights of stairs?" I ask.
"Yeah, sorry." She said. She lets go of me. I sigh a little.
"You okay?" I ask. She nods.
"Yeah." She said.
"Good, I'm gonna go sleep on your couch now." I said walking pass her.
