Chapter 21

The chasm sloped down to a level passage that reminded him of the labyrinth tunnels they traversed through on their way to the lobster monster, except there were no choices here, nor did it go on for long. After a hundred yards or so, it opened up to another cavernous room that looked an awful lot like the last one. Unlike that one, though, the exit was clearly on the other side. Andi felt it, too.

"I'll fly us across before any other big uglies crash out of the ground."

"Yeah, but should we deal with whatever comes at us for the same reason we killed the lobster monster?"

"Probably, but let's play it by ear. Do you sense anything?"

"Just a general unease. Nothing ready to pounce on us at the moment."

"Yeah, I feel the same." She let out a breath. "How did you get used to this? It's so strange to have this Spidey-sense."

"Took me longer to get used to your every emotion in my head. Of course, we weren't bound as tightly then. Besides, this Spidey-sense is probably our most helpful power."

"I guess it's weird because it was always your thing. I never imagined I'd get any of it. If Mom and Dad could see me now, right?"

He smiled at her, glad that although sadness filled her with that remark, it didn't consume her.

She went full dragon, and he vaulted onto her back. They hurtled forward, but before they'd gone a hundred feet, the gravity of the room shifted to the ceiling, and they fell up. Andi flapped her wings, but nothing happened.

"It's like there's no atmosphere in here for me to get traction on. But we can breathe, so I should be able to fly."

"Magic doesn't always make sense." He readied the levitation spell, concentrating to let it engulf them both. Before it was necessary, though, Andi found a draft and leveled them out.

She aimed towards the exit, now high above them, and took off. Again, before they'd gone far, the room's orientation shifted, this time making the gravitational center the wall where they'd come in. They fell, and before Andi could get her wings working, Ben cast the levitation spell. They came to a stop almost in the center of the huge space.

"Now what?" she asked, but before he could answer, the room spun around them. Not physically spinning, but shifting its gravitational core to each wall in seemingly random patterns. It gave the illusion of being on one of those spinny rides at a fair or an amusement park. He loved those when the Orange County Fair came each summer, but right now he wasn't sure if he ever wanted to go on again.

"I'm going to be sick," Andi said.

"Close your eyes. I've never seen you puke as a dragon, and I don't want this to be the first. Especially since gravity would probably shift so we get the perfect barf shower."

"Not helping."

He chuckled and closed his own eyes. Answers didn't often pop up on silver platters anymore since he'd started learning to control his power, and this time proved no exception.
