'I wish I had a flashlight.' Jaden thought as he walked down the dark corridor.
He kept walking until he reached an end. He held Alexis with one arm, and tried opening the door with the other. With a loud creak, the door opened, letting mist seep through into the corridor, making it spookier than usual.
Jaden walked into the next room, and a bright light awaited him. He shielded his eyes, and walked blindly. The red in his eyelids disappeared, and he opened them, only to find a cave with five different passages.
"Okay. Way to go Jaden. You're probably lost. And the only person who can possibly guide you is unconscious! Yep, way to go." He said sarcastically to himself. He looked at each path, and thought, 'Which path do I take? The first one? Or maybe the second one?' He took a deep breath in, then said "Eenie Meenie Minee Moe", and picked the fourth path.
The darkness wasn't helping Jaden see in the foggy mist. 'Damn, I wish Alexis would wake up, she would know what to do, and maybe even where the heck I'm going!' he thought. A slight movement was made in his arms, and he squinted to see Alexis waking up groggily.
"Oh God, what happened?" She said, while her headache was killing her.
"You fell asleep after that duel."
"What duel?"
"You know, the one with that ugly guy."
By now Alexis was up and standing. She put her hands on her hips, and said, "Very descriptive."
Jaden only shrugged, and then went to ask her the question that was bugging him for a while. "Hey Lex?" She was walking ahead, and stopped to inspect a wall.
"Hm?" she asked, half listening.
"Where the heck are we?" Jaden asked, walking up to her, and trying to catch a glance at what she was looking at. But she blocked his view.
She answered with her own question. "Did you pass a cave like room with five paths yet?"
"Um… yea? So?"
"What path did you take?" Alexis asked, worried at his answer.
"Um… I think the fourth one. Why?"
Relief spread through Alexis' body and face. "Thank God."
"Why?" Jaden asked, demanding to know the answer.
"The first three paths lead to evil dueling spirits who are actually able to duel us."
"Well, don't worry about that. I could've beaten them hands down."
Alexis rolled her eyes at Jaden's confidence, and then stated, "Well, they cheat by taking your soul whether or not you win."
Jaden's eyes widened, "Well then, I'm glad I chose the fourth one."
"How'd you know?" Alexis asked, curiosity in her eyes.
Jaden shrugged. "Eenie Meenie Minee Moe." Alexis only rolled her eyes and shook her head, and they walked down the path.
"So… Alexis. What was with that guy calling you a Princess and me a Prince?"
Alexis's eyes widened, but thankfully, Jaden was in back of her, so he couldn't see her.
"N-nothing. H-he just s-said to annoy me." She said stuttering, while praying Jaden would fall for it.
"Okay then…" Jaden stated, just along with it. Alexis would tell him when she was ready.
Alexis stopped walking, and tapped the ceiling. (It wasn't very high.) A ladder fell down, and she started climbing it, Jaden following her. While climbing, Jaden asked another question. "Hey Alexis, how do you know where to go?"
Alexis stopped climbing and looked behind her. She only shrugged. "It's like a feeling. As if someone's guiding me."
Unknown to them, an invisible purple ball was in front of Alexis, leading her as she climbed.
Of course, it was unknown to the both of them.
