Resus produced a jar of glow-worms from his cloak and used their dim light to check the time. “That’s two hours we’ve been down here,” he moaned, “and we’re no closer to the Underlands than when we started!”

“You don’t know that,” said Cleo, collecting up the soil produced by Tee as he dug deeper into the ground. She in turn passed the earth back to Luke, who used it to fill in the rear of the tunnel. “We could be almost there.”

“Nonsense!” scoffed Resus. “I doubt we’ve travelled more than two or three metres. It’ll take days at this rate.”

Luke wiped the sweat from his face with a muddy hand. Tunnelling under Scream Street was hard enough without Resus and Cleo arguing all the way. “We don’t know how far or how deep we’ve gone,” he said patiently. “I suggest we trust Tee’s instincts for the time being.”

“Instincts?” laughed Resus, flinging his hands out. “He’s simply digging in the general direction of down. You don’t need zombie instincts to tell you that!”

“Stop waving about,” said Luke. “We’ll be down here a lot longer if you collapse the tunnel and bury us alive.”

Ignoring him, Resus continued to rant. “All I’m saying is that we’ll need to dig deeper than the sewer if we hope to get anywhere at all.” The vampire punched his fist down to emphasize his point, and as he did so his arm smashed through the floor of the tunnel and opened up a hole. Before he could even cry out in shock, the vampire had fallen through it into nothingness.

Luke lunged forwards and grabbed his friend’s wrist as he slipped through the gap.
