Okay next chapter, and guess what I just heard? J.P. wrote another max ride book that's coming out the 17th of March. YEAH! Okay here's the next chapter.
Jess POV
"Jess where are we?" Chellsie asked me, her lower lip trembling.
"I don't know." I answered, lying through my teeth. I knew exactly where we were. And we probably were in a lot of trouble. The scientists here knew who are parents were, knew what we could do, and some other things that my mom and I spent my whole life trying to hide.
In the dank cellar/dungeon, there was a constant drip of water that was making Rush go crazy and the air was cold and chilling. We each had been taken to that awful white room and made to fight those stupid erasers. Every one of us had been brought back unconscious, and pretty beat up, although we each had taken down at least three erasers.
"Hey guys, Rocky here says that if we could get out of these chains, he would be able to get us out of here." Rose said looking optimistic.
"Rose will you please tell that rat to go away." Eliza asked, looking the other way.
Rose had befriended a rat that was running around in the room. The thing was all black with brown eyes, pink ears, nose and feet and a gross pink tail. I hated rats and always would.
"Well if you could get us out," Josh said looking annoyed "we wouldn't be taking help from a rat."
Silence followed. Each of us had tried to get the chains off but to no avail. I don't know how long we sat there just staring at the walls, when Shay sat up. He seemed suddenly alert, but there was a glimmer in his eyes. He had an idea.
"Chellsie, put a thin shield around your ankle to make it slippery and try to get your foot through, take off your shoes first." Chellsie did what Shay asked and to my amazement she was able to get her foot through. She did it to Casey and Josh, they got out as well. Soon we were all out and quickly planning on how to escape.
"I can't believe I didn't think of that before. It was so obvious." Chellsie said, smacking her forehead.
"Doesn't matter. Shay, any idea how to get out of here?"
"Let me think. There's a camera monitoring the door and I didn't see any windows close by. So I say we just run for it and take down any eraser in the way."
Rush and Blade smiled at that idea. I admit it sounded good to me, but we would probably run into erasers, scientists, or have to fight once we got out.
"Um Shay, I told you Rocky knows a way out." Rose spoke up from behind me. The rat right behind her, that thing looked so creepy.
Shay sighed and looked at me. I looked back at him then nodded towards Rose. As much as I hated rats, we could always try, besides if we didn't Rose would pester us for days.
"Fine, lead the way Rose."
As if he could hear, Rocky took off towards the back of the room that was shrouded in darkness. We followed. In the very back corner on the ground were some very rusty bars covering a whole about three feet wide by a foot and a half long. I could hear running water under it and I had no idea how long the drop was to that water.
"Rocky says that this hole drops down to a natural underground river that spits out the side of a cliff."
Great… we were going to plunge down a small, dark hole to a river and fly out the side of a cliff. How's that for extreme sports.
"One problem, how do we get the bars off?" Casey asked glancing up at Shay. His eyes had excitement in them. Casey was always the one who wanted to do all the crazy stuff first.
"Easy you just have to do this." Blade stomped on one of the rusted bars and it broke away from the dirt holding it. He did this to the rest of the bars and Shay jumped into the whole. Two seconds or so later you could hear a splash. Casey jumped next and you could hear his yell all the way down. Rush jumped, then Rose, Josh, Blade, Eliza, and I went last.
The fall wasn't so bad. It was black and dirty. I hit the water and it wasn't actually as cold as I thought it would be. I swam to the surface and floated down stream for a while. I reached up with one of my arms and couldn't feel a ceiling. The water was too deep to touch the bottom and the water was as black as the air was. Even with my raptor vision it was really hard to see.
Suddenly the water started to go down hill and the current picked up. I was tossed everywhere until finally the tunnel opened up into a wide cave, where the water fell over the ledge. I grabbed a large rock before I was flung over and pulled my self on top. That had felt like a water ride at an amusement park.
Standing on the rock, I opened my wings, shook them to dry them a little then took off. Everyone was already outside, soaked and grumbling, everyone except Casey.
"That was AWESOME! Can we go again?" Eliza and Rose each hit Casey over the head. If I never saw another water slide it would be too soon.
"Now where do we go Shay?" I asked. I really wanted to see mom and dad again.
"Well let's go to New York. Dad once told me Itex used to have a place there, so maybe we can find some answers. If we don't find anything than we'll try to find Jeb and grandma in Arizona."
I could live with that.
"Hey can we stop at that really cool amusement park in Ohio on the way. I think it's called Cedar Point." Casey asked all innocently.
"NO!" We all screamed at the same time.
Yeah this was probably the most random chapter so far but it works. Review please, and I'll give you a cyber cookie.
