Chapter 1
"You must be joking"
"Fionna, why would I do something like that?!"
"There must be some way out...UGH!"
I thrust my sword into the walls of the cave. They yielded no escape. The sword clattered to the ground. The act was done more out of frustration then anything else. How could this happen to me?
"There's no hope, we should just wait and mabye someone might find us"
"I guess your right"
There was a long silence. I shivered.
"Are you cold?"
"um, yeah, a little"
"Here"
He lights one of the torches, previously unlit, propped up against the wall, and hands it to me.
"Here"
"Thank you"
"Is that better?"
"yes"
It didn't really help that much
"...this is kinda romantic"
"what?"
"um, nothing"
we sat in the darkness for a while, acknowledging our embarrassment to show our affection. I'm tough, but sometimes it's hard to keep that up. I could feel the air getting thin. It was getting harder and harder to breathe. Flame prince broke the silence:
"you know"
"yeah"
"If I had to die in a cave, without anyone knowing what happened to me, to die alone but yet with one person, I'm kinda glad it was you"
"really...you mean that?"
"absolutely"
"wow"
more silence.
"...I think I'm going to explore this cave some more"
"okay"
I walk off into the darkness of the cave enveloping everything with only a torch to ward it off. The cave seems to go on forever. Without an end in sight I continue to search for anyway out, without luck. I feel like I've been walking for hours, I'm so tired so I decide to turn back... I hesitate, I've come so far already. I decide to go just a little bit farther.
5 minutes have passed and I see light up ahead. I race toward it. At long last! Finally a way out! As I'm running my touch goes out, I don't care. I wont need it any longer. As I draw nearer to the little I realize something, it isn't the light of day at all. It looks like...a person. Nearer still I realize that it's no mere person, its flame prince.
"what...how?"
flame prince turns around
"Fionna!"
He rushes to me
"I'm so glad your back. I was so worried..."
He embraces me with much force.
"oww"
"oh, I'm sorry"
"It's ok"
"Wait, I thought this tunnel was straight. Are there turns or splits?"
"No, I though it was straight too"
