The Boy's Story Chapter 4: HQ
Ezel led "Cala" out of the shop and through several narrow alleys. They twisted this way and that way for nearly an hour. Finally Cala asked, "Where the hell are we going?"
Ezel replied, "I always take a long, winding path to the resistance house. Good for losing anyone that may be following."
This only seemed to anger Cala. "We've been walking for an hour. Let's friggin' get there already."
Ezel sighed. "Fine, fine, we'll start actually getting there. It'll only take five minutes or so."
After several minutes, they reached a small home in a clearing in some woods outside of town.
"This is the resistance headquarters. Shall we enter?" Ezel invited Cala in.
"Fine. Let's just get this over with," Cala relied.
The headquarters was a small, cozy hamlet that had a warm, inviting feel to it. Hardly the place that you would suspect to harbor people who wish to commit crimes against the crown.
"This place doesn't look like headquarters for an underground movement."
Ezel replied, "That's the impression that we're trying to make. No one would ever look here."
Ezel grabbed a lamp from a table and pressed down on the bulb. The table split open and the ground opened up, revealing a staircase. Ezel led Cala down the stairs to a large wooden door. He knocked on it, and a slit opened up. "Password?" a voice asked.
"Tartarus," Ezel said calmly to the voice.
The door opened into darkness, beckoning Ezel and Cala.
I think that this chapter is going to stop here. Sorry, I still have trouble figuring out how long these chapters should be. R&R everyone please until next time!
