Middleland Chronicles Chapter 2, an underland chronicles fanfic

Sorry for the long wait and to my friend virawl I was not slacking I had technical difficulties. Thanks for your awesome reviews. I will do song references now to show the difference between us. The song today is Wake Me Up Inside by Evanescence. Now lets move on with the chronicles.

My first few thoughts were, as I plummeted to my death, "Crap now we're both going to die. What will I tell my mom?", but I thought that was a bit much. Besides the currents would keep us from falling to our death. Boy was I wrong. The currents seemed a lot more weaker over the past four years. Now we where dropping like flies. I tried to scream to Scott to grab on to something but my voice couldn't be heard over his screams. I tried my luck but was met with nothing but wall. I remembered that the other times I was here there was nothing there but this time it was different, I felt a ledge and seen light coming from the tunnel but I was dropping to fast to hold on. I started thinking that we were totally going to die any second now but in a couple seconds we started to slow down and ended up gracefully landing on my face.

"Oh shiz! Oh fffuu-! Oh crap we are in Hell man! We're dead!" Scott screamed.

I almost forgot he was here, "Scott we are not dead, I've been here before. Welcome to the Underland." I introduced.

After awhile of explaining everything to Scott we began to walk.

" Your shizzing me dude." He said at first but was proven wrong when we came across our first Underlandian creature. A Gnawer.

Now I suspect the peace was still going on strong after I left but I still attacked. I started to rage and I started to get into it when I seen something that froze my blood. An X on its snout. I stopped but that was my mistake as the tail slapped me in the back and made me trip.

"Oh crap, please God I don't want to die." I heard Scott pray. Scott prayed?

"That's how it's done," I heard a gruff voice say. "Welcome back, boy."

"Glad to be back Ripred." I said.

"Who's your friend?" Ripred asked.

"Scott meet Ripred, Ripred meet Scott." I said.

"Ripred as in the giant rat that kills everything and asks questions later?" Scott asked.

"Yeah." Ripred responded.

"You should totally be like a god or something." Scott said in awe.

Ripred really liked that comment because he brightened up.

"Yes I should. Well anyway lets get you to the palace we have friends to see." Ripred said and together we were off. We walked silently for a few minutes before Ripred perked up again and said, "Oh, and I think you may like this!" He tossed an iPod Touch into my hands.

"How?" I questioned, turning it on.

"Dropped a while back. Kept it just in case." He briefly explained, before starting off again.

Walking in the halls brought back memories that I tried to burry but to no avail. Every once in a while I here someone say "Oh my Prophecy, the Warrior has returned!" or something like that. Once even a "Oh no, more love troubles with the Queen, just walked in." I didn't know what they meant but didn't ask. Soon the voices got annoying so I decided to use the iTouch.

I went to artist and turned to Evanescence. Luckily, the previous owner had a song I liked. I started to listen to Wake Me Up Inside.

How can you see into my eyes
Like open doors?
Lading you down into my core,
Where I've become so numb.

Without a soul,
My spirit's sleeping somewhere cold,
Until you find it there and lead it back
Home.

(Wake me up)
Wake me up inside.
(I cant wake up)
Wake me up inside.
(Save me)
Call my name and save me from the dark.
(Wake me up)
Bid my blood to run.
(I cant wake up)
Before I come undone.
(Save me)
Save me from the nothing I've become.

Now that I know what I'm without,
You can't just leave me.
Breathe into me and make me real.
Bring me to life.

Bring me to life.
(I've been living a lie.
There's nothing inside)
Bring me to life.

Frozen inside without your touch,
Without your love, darling.
Only you are the life among the dead.

(All of this sight,
I can't believe I couldn't see
Kept in the dark
but you were there in front of me)
I've been sleeping a 1000 years it seems.
I've got to open my eyes to everything.
(Without a thought
Without a voice
Without a soul
Don't let me die here.
There must be something more).
Bring me to life.

Bring me to life.
(I've been living a lie. There's nothing inside)
Bring me to life

"Yo, Gregor we're here." Scott said.

I turned off my new iTouch to save the battery. I braced myself and walked in the room. What I didn't expect was a full fledged council meeting and people yelling and screaming.

"Guys, guys!" I tried to quiet down but nobody would listen.

I was pissed but more importantly I thought, "What was going on!". No one noticed me and they kept screaming. Finally I had it.

"SHUT THE F-K UP!" I screamed.

Everyone looked at me in surprise. Every one gasped and one guy fell off the railing. "The Warrior..." they kept mumbling to themselves.

"Gregor." I heard a soft voice whisper.

I turned my head and seen the most beautiful girl ever. Period. Luxa. She was just standing there ever so gracefully. I'm ashamed to say I noticed she grew more. I'm sorry, blame it on the hormones.

"Luxa." I said.

In the next seconds she was in my arms crying. "I missed you." she kept repeating.

"Gregor! It is you. You've grown my friend." It was Mareth and he came with Howard and Hazard. Greetings came all around and I had to introduce Scott of course. He looked shy for the first time in his life.

"Hi." He replied sheepishly.

"Hello." Said an unknown voice.

"I'm Gregor. The Warrior." I stated. I never played that card but for some reason I felt that I should.

"Oh. He isn't going to like this." I heard Howard mumble under his breath.

All of a sudden Luxa looked guilty.

"Gregor this is Xander he is my spouse, we will be wed in seven days." She said.

I blanked out. She left me? We've never really been together but still... she didn't love me? All that was running through my head was:

(Wake me up)
Wake me up inside.
(I cant wake up)
Wake me up inside.
(Save me)
Call my name and save me from the dark.

Side Note: Ahem. I had to edit and tone this down a bit, since the original had an excess smathering of... uh... profound language. Keeping in mind that this is suppose to be kind of kid friendly, I don't think we should have this kind of language usage. Oh, and if I have time, the next Chapter can be up as early as this weekend! Again, read and review if you wish for this to continue! I know there are some amazing fans for this! Show your awesomeness by review!
