Hope: Chapter 7 Part 1
I'm so sorry for the extremely long hiatus. What can I say, it's been a while lol.
Lightning kept both her ears and eyes open as her and the others walked slowly across the bridge, making sure to not make amy unneccesary noise. "I haven't seen nor heard anything for the past few minutes." She mused. "Do you think they've fallen back asleep again?'
"Doubtful." Fang responded. "I doubt that thing happens to them multiple times a day, I dont think we're lucky enough for something like that to happen to us."
"It's just been extremely quiet, I'm not liking it at all." Lightning replied. "Hey, do you know how much farther we need to go Mr. Hero?"
Snow perked up at the mention of hero, he looked around for a second before replying. "We should actually be very close now." He told her, shifting the boys weight on his back slightly. "We should actually be coming up on the..." he stopped his sentence short. "There it is." He said, pointing in the distance at the bridge tower.
"Thank god we've made it." Fang exclaimed. "The waiting and silence is starting to grate on my nerves."
"Mine too, it's way to quiet." Lightning replied, slowing her pace a little more as they got closer to the building. "You'd think we could hear something beyond our blood running through our veins."
"Maybe Fang here might be on to something Lightning, maybe they've gone back into their weird hibernation state." Snow put in, looking around for any sign of movement. Any sign of anything, really. "After how many of those things we took out back there, you'd think we would see bodies up this way or something."
"Keep on your toes, I'm getting a very bad feeling." Lightning stated as she slowly pushed the door to the building open with her blade. She sat still for a second, looking for anything but saw nothing. She turned to look at the other two, motioning for them to stand off to the side of the building, away from the door.
After they moved out of the way, she clanged her blade against the metal door. "What the fuck are you doing you psycho?" Snow hissed. "We're supposed to keep quiet!"
"I'm seeing of the noise draws any of them out so they don't end up behind us." She calmly stated, listening carefully. "But even now, I don't hear anything." She gave a short glance at the others as she made a move to go inside.
"I wouldn't go in there if I were you!"
Snow almost dropped Hope at the sudden voice that yelled at them. "What the fuck!" He spit out. "Who the fuck?"
"Up here." The voice called again. "Look above you!"
Lightning backed up a bit and look up above with the others, barely making out a mop of long black hair on the top of the building. "And exactly why should I not go in there?" She asked. "And who are you?" She put in as an afterthought.
"Because those people are waiting inside to ambush, they're waiting at the bottom of the exit stairs up here, waiting for one of us to make the mistake to try to go downstairs." They replied. "They literally are hiding and not making noise to make us think it's safe. It's not safe. We've been trying to figure out a way to get down from here without the stairs. But jumping into the ocean seems like our only, painful and possible death inducing, choice."
"They're setting people up?" Fang asked "they're dead, is that even possible?"
