Chapter 9: Search and Find
(Author's note: Yes I did skip a chapter. Why you may ask? Because chapter 8 is the lemon scene it is posted, but just as a chapter. If you are old enough or are allowed to read stuff like that, just search for it. Otherwise there's no plot in the chapter so you aren't missing much.)
Orvitho awoke to the sun in his eyes. He groaned and sat up. D'vin was still sleeping soundly. The door creaked open, and Lelitha came into the room. She didn't seem too happy that D'vin and Orvitho were still in bed.
"How are you two still sleeping? It's late in the afternoon!" Lelitha yelled.
"WHAT?" Orvitho yelled.
He stood up.
"Put some pants on first," Lelitha said.
Orvitho quickly covered his lower half and searched for his pants. D'vin was still sleeping.
"Oh and I was joking about the time. I was hoping that D'vin would wake up to that," Lelitha replied.
Orvitho shook D'vin awake. D'vin yawned.
"Why is my mother in the room?" D'vin asked.
Everyone glared at D'vin. He rolled off the edge of the bed and began to get dressed.
"Ok I'm up," D'vin said.
Lelitha left the room. Orvitho got dressed, and looked through the sack him and D'vin carried. There was fresh food, a map, and soap. Orvitho figured that Lelitha packed it while they were asleep. D'vin came over, and put his hands around Orvitho.
"Did you enjoy yourself last night?" D'vin asked.
"Yes, but we should really get going," Orvitho said.
D'vin laughed and walked over to the round door. The door creaked open.
"I guess we are ready to leave," Orvitho said.
D'vin nodded, and then the two walked through the door. They were ready to get back on the road again.
Along the dirt road and the grassy hills, Orvitho seemed to always look behind him. After some time, D'vin noticed, and asked Orvitho why he was looking behind.
"I have this strange feeling someone is following us," Orvitho replied.
"Don't worry. Even if someone is following us we can lose them in the mountains, while we look for the entrance," D'vin stated.
Orvitho glared at D'vin. He knew that D'vin wasn't exactly sure where the entrance to the Forgotten City.
"I have a pretty good idea where it is," D'vin stated defensively.
Orvitho smiled, and ran ahead of D'vin to get to the mountain range faster. D'vin ran to catch up.
Once at the mountain range D'vin began to search the rocks. Orvitho, not knowing what to look for just sat on a rock, and watched.
"Are you sure you don't want my help?" Orvitho asked.
"Hey I can find the lever which opens the hidden door," D'vin replied.
D'vin continued to search. Orvitho just watched D'vin search for a few hours. Out of pure boredom, Orvitho began to spin on the rock, but his foot hit something hard. Orvitho turned around to see a rusty, orange metal lever almost buried under the rock he was sitting on. He called over D'vin and together they pushed the large rock away, and pulled the lever. A boulder from the mountainside rolled away, and an unnatural metal, passage was revealed. D'vin grabbed Orvitho's hand and pulled him inside the passage.
