Hello friends and readers. I hope you enjoy this chapter I spent..ah what do you care what I spent working. You just want to read it.
Day 8: 2:00 P.M.
Raven was walking through the cave. She held up a torch to light the way.
"I've been walking for several hours is there any way out?"
She walked for about 15 minutes, then she heard a deep, grungy and evil voice:
"Hello daughter."
Raven gasped she turned around. She didn't see Trigon but she did see his 4 red slits staring through the darkness back at her.
"It's not real, It's not real, It's not real." Raven thought to herself.
"Oh am I not real?" Asked Trigon able to read her mind. "Then how can I do this?" He sent a blast of fire at her and it threw her against the cave wall.
"It's not real, It's not real, It's not real!" She thought faster.
"Hah!" Laughed Trigon "I am real even if I was destroyed you will never escape my influence!" He said as he continued to laugh.
Raven felt her face. She gasped. Now she had the 4 slits for eyes.
"You will do my bidding again!" Declared Trigon
"It's Not Real!" Raven shrieked. She held her hands over her head for a second. She then looked up. His eyes were gone. She felt her face. She had her regular eyes back.
"Jeeze."
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Day 8: 3:45 P.M.
Robin walked through the darkened cave with a flash light he had. Suddenly he rounded a corner and he was in a different place. It was a circus with stands and everything. He suddenly remembered this place. This was the circus his parents had performed at.
"And now ladies and gentlemen." The announcer man declared. "The amazing flying Graysons."
Then he remembered that night.
"Mom, Dad no!" He cried out but it was like no one could hear him.
His parents first jumped of the high stage and through several hoops. Then they landed on the high wire. But right as their feet touched the wire it snapped. They started to fall.
"No!" Cried Robin. He jumped in an attempt to catch them. But they flew just short of his hands. They hit the ground and died instantly.
Robin ran over to his parent's bodies.
He looked at them for a second "Why couldn't I save you?" He then put his hands to his face and cried.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Day 8: 4:15 P.M.
S.O.L. walked through the cave. A red light shinning from her staff luminated the way. She leaned against the wall for a second to take a breather.
"Well hello Mineva (min-eva)." Said a sinister and evil voice. S.O.L. stood straight up. She knew that voice.
"Yes hello Mineva we've been waiting for you." Said a different but still sinister tone. S.O.L. also recognized that voice
A second later 2 men walked out of the shadows. Both were wearing armor like S.O.L.'s, but one was young he looked like he was in his mid 30s and the other was old with a goatee and maybe in his late 60s.
S.O.L. just looked at them. "You're not real." Was all she said and kept walking
"Aw come on." said The one with goatee "Is that any way to treat your father?"
S.O.L. stopped walking and turned around. "One you're not my father, two you're not real." She then resumed walking.
"Don't worry dad." Said the younger one. "She's just mad because her little boy-toy got blown up."
"You sicken me Roderick." She said not even stopping.
"Aw still mad?"
"I don't forget such invasive actions so easily."
"I was just trying to bond with you."
"You were trying to rape me, damn it." She said turning around and looking at him.
"Wow you were right son; she is upset about that boy." Said her father
"You equally sicken me." She said resuming her walking.
"Oh why is that?" Asked her father in a sinister tone.
She walked right up to him. "You killed mom." She said in a whisper. Then resumed walking.
"I had the right to; she wasn't doing what I told her to."
"That is so much bull. In fact I don't even know why I'm talking to you, this is the Cave of Illusions, and you two are dead."
And at that the 2 of them started to laugh and laugh.
"Dare I ask what is so funny?"
"The fact that you think we're dead." Said Roderick
"Well you are." She said a little confused.
"No." Said her father. "We may be dead in real life, but we're alive in you. You think you're good, that you've left your bad days behind you. Well you're wrong. Once you acted evil it is always in you. It's a part of you. It's like a dormant volcano waiting to blow."
S.O.L. just looked at them for a second.
"So as we were saying, welcome back Mineva. We've been waiting for you." And they both stepped into the shadows and vanished.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Day 8 5:25 P.M.
Ilmatar walked through the cave. Her saber lit the way. She walked a little longer:
"What?" She muttered. She looked ahead and there was a cross roads. Left or Right?
"S.O.L. never said anything about this." She did the thing anyone does when they can't decide.
"Eny meny miny mo." And chose the left.
She walked a little longer, then saw a sign.
Good luck you have chosen the path of no illusion,
for the conclusion of your journey here is a reward.
She looked around the sign. And saw a huge pile of gold. She walked over to it
"Wow. This must be the treasure of the Sages." She picked up a coin. It had an engraving of a sorcerer on it.
"Minus well keep a couple to remind me." She said as she picked up a handful and put them in a pocket she had on her suite.
She was about to leave when something caught her eyes. It was a necklace. It was made of gold. and around it was a bright red ruby that had some weird markings in the middle.
"This looks nice." She said as she picked it up and slipped it on underneath her suite.
As she was walking away she felt her boot step in something. She looked down and saw it was a green gooey substance. Then she heard a sound that sounded like a mixture of Hissing and screeching.
She raised her saber to see what it was
"Uh oh."
