CHAPTER 10
~ Kristina ~
“JO!” I screamed on the top of my lungs. Pounding the wall with my fists, I continued to scream, praying something would happen. Temples have hidden passages everywhere you turn. Trying to find the key, is the problem. Feeling my voice go hoarse from screaming, I tried everything I could to get back to her.
My hands felt around the rock wall for anything that could help me. I felt the outer lining of the doorway, but nothing showing a way in. FUCK! There has to be a way in. I will not let my best friend die here.
My arms began to glow once again as I felt power surge inside me. The door began to shake uncontrollably, dust falling from the cracks and opened with ease.
“YES!” I shouted and threw my arms up in the air but soon regretted it. Reminder to self, set up a tub of ice to let my body heal.
Poking my head back inside the temple, I heard Jo’s screams echoing off the walls and I bolted inside.
I blindly followed Cleo and Jo into the rope trap and down another tunnel I have never seen before. I caught up with Cleo and Jo, only to see them vanished when they went through the wall. Yes, somehow their bodies were able to become ghosts, because they freaking flew through the damn wall.
After today, I was swearing off mummies and taking up a hobby in knitting. At least then, nothing will come back to life, show you memories of someone’s past that has a man that looks an awful lot like the one you have feelings for, and then kill you.
Feeling myself on the verge of a panic attack, my hands skimmed the walls for anything I could find. I knew in the back of my mind that this was a stupid thing to do, and that there could be booby traps, but my best friend was locked inside with Cleo, the woman who makes my blood turn to ice and that I distrusted to the fullest.
Large rivets grazed over my skin, as I looked for something. Then the ground beneath me started to shake. Dust slipped out of the crack, making it hard to see. The walls shook violently and started to move.
“Oh, come on.” Turning to the left, the far wall started to slide towards me, but that was not the worst part. Scarabs slipped between the cracks, thousands of them spilling on top of each other and starting to run towards me.
With the wall closing in on me and thousands of scarabs having one thing on their mind, I bolted. “I’ll be back for you, Jo!” I screamed over my shoulder and did everything I could to get out of this place.
Looking down at my arms, all I saw was my skin covered in dirt and blood. The glowing marks were gone and nowhere in sight.
“Oh, now that I am running for my life and not getting burnt to a crisp by a complete psychopath, you don’t appear?” I muttered to myself.
