Chapter 5
Saved
(1st Person P.O.V: Stephany)
I heard something jiggle the door handle a bit, trying to open it; I tensed as I heard the growl of the monster. But when the door handle jiggled for a second time, I crept up to the door, since these monsters don't really try to open doors. I heard heavy breathing, like someone had just run a mile… but it sounded human enough. I quickly unlocked the door and pulled the person in with my hook-blade, closing the door behind us. I put my hand over the person's mouth so he didn't scream or anything stupid like that.
"If you even breathe too loudly I gut you," I muttered through clenched teeth, my French accent clear.
He nodded, obviously terrified. This may sound bad, but I'm glad he's here; at least I'm not the only one in this crooked place.
I braced myself against the door, listening carefully for any signs of the monster. After I was absolutely positive that the thing had left, I relaxed a bit, letting the person go.
"Thanks, bro!" he said, "you saved my life!"
I put the hood of the assassin cloak down. "Don't mention it. I wasn't expecting to see another human in this god-forsaken castle."
He blinked and stared for a second, most likely at my hair; it's not often that you see someone with silver hair.
"Uh, what's with your-" he started.
"Genetic mutation is my guess," I said, cutting him off, "I don't really know, though. I never really was interested in finding out why I have silver hair."
"Oh," he said, "it's just… kind of…"
"Abnormal? I know," I said, taking off the assassin gear so I'm just in my normal clothes. I put the outfit in my backpack, "Well, be a bit more careful next time, dude. I wouldn't want the only other human in this place killed before we can escape."
I started to walk away, when he said, "Hold on, before you go, what's your name?"
"Stephany Sylvasa," I said, turning to face him, "and yours?"
He grinned and said, "My name's PeeeeewDiePiiie."
"Well met, PewDiePie," I said, then turned towards the door again, "Now don't get yourself killed before we meet again."
With that, I walked out. I looked down the hall one way, then the other, before deciding to go to the right, leaving PewDiePie behind.
