Chapter 11 – Grethoff!
In seconds I landed with a bump. It was as dark as before maybe a little chillier.
I let my eyes adjust to the light to find the grand pit was nothing more than a meter deep! "Wow….how freaky!" I said aloud I climbed out and went to the door.
"Mika's so weird… Making me think he'd left me here for good! What an idiot" I laughed off the experience and left the dark room and the dreaded pit behind me. I saw that the corridor ahead of me had straw on the floor. I could have taken the other route but why bother it's just a pile of straw.
I was wrong as it gave way under my weight and plummeting me a good 10 meters down below. A figure loomed over.
"Hey up there help me out!" I said laughing at how many times I've fallen in pits today.
"Not this time baldie!" I couldn't make out the figure or the unusually high voice? High voice? Could this be Paris?
"Paris stop fooling around don't make me spill the beans on gimlin!" The figure (Paris) ignored me
"I'm not Paris you bald sod! I know what you've been up to around this mountain"
I felt my heart skip a beat… this thing knew… they couldn't…how could they?
"Not so mouthy now hmmmm? Have a nice time meeting my friends while you're down there… tell them I said hello!" The high pitched un-recognisable figure left laughing (high pitched) to them self.
Today's just not my day not only was I left twice in a pit but I was mocked both times and I smell from the-
"Whhhhhooooooooooo's there?" a croaky voice whispered a small light was slowly flickering towards me!
"Marinate is that you 'cos I can smell you from here hurry up and get back to the cave before somebody sees you" The thing stopped face to face with me. It was as shocked as I was - this thing looked human… I sniffed the air. This thing was human!
"What are you doing here?" I asked the human gasped. Then seemed to remember something and stood there staring.
"How'd you get here? Leave now!"
"I'm a guardiannnnnnnnn" it hissed
"Ha ha very funny then being a guardian you won't mind me having a quick sip of your blood then" I leaned forward.
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" the human leapt back
"So I'm not guardian I'm a human so what? I do my job and that's that! Don't tell anyone our secret oh please don't I'll Erm…. Show you these tunnels! Yeah tunnels!" I stood there confused about what had just happened in the past minute. Well it's one more secret I can store away for safe keeping. Humans are rather convincing guardians'
"Wait a minute!" I said aloud "These tunnels lead anywhere under the mountain right?"
"Yes" it replied. I just had a brilliant idea! I could carry out my rain of pranks from down here and pick up on plenty of juicy gossip.
"What's your name human" I said in Mika's kind of tone
"Grethoff"
"If I'm allowed to use these tunnels as I wish you've got yourself a deal Grethoff"
"Yes anything"
"First of all could you show me to a certain room?"
"Yes give me the name and I'll lead you right away" I had a perfect name in mind…
Mika…
