Chapter 1231 - The Slave Passage

Hendrix leaped onto his feet as the skinny warrior started snarling. While the skinny warrior had his back turned, Levi managed to sneak up behind the towering humanoid creature and chop its arm off, causing blood to splatter everywhere using his hand that acted like a blade The skinny warrior collapsed on its knees and started screaming. Hendrix lunged towards the humanoid creature and grabbed it by the neck. When he was about to snap the humanoid creature's neck, Kade intervened. Stop." That's enough." You two have proven yourselves to me." The deal is finalized." We all are now partners." Kade snapped his fingers and the skinny warrior faded away like a ghost. The heavy rain ceased and the clouds cleared up. Even though The Drum Volcano was always active for some reason every night at 12 pm, the lava and molten rocks stopped spewing out of the volcano for a short period of time. It was currently 12 pm. As the new deathly trio shook hands, they made their way away from Drum Volcano, heading back to The Industrial Elven Kingdom.

The Royal Elven Kingdom.

Cross and company finally arrived at their destination. The ship landed on the outskirts of the kingdom. Orion didn't want to land inside the kingdom. There was a war going on after all. When the ship landed on the ground the propellers sliced up the nearby grass that was home to some nearby critters. The hatch opened up and everyone walked out. Cross sniffed the area and could smell the disgusting smell of a rotting corpse. Cross followed the smell while the others conversed among themselves. The only ones who followed Cross were Sarah, Jessie, and Elanor. The disgusting stench made Cross want to vomit.

He came across a cave. In the entrance of the cave laid the rotting corpses of slaves that escaped from The Slave District by died of starvation and sickness. Even though this problem was none of Cross's or anyone else's business, he still wanted to investigate. He examined one of the rotting corpses. The corpse he was looking at looked as if it had been burned. The skin is hard and charred. After 3 minutes he came to a conclusion about what happened to the slaves. " The skulls and the ribs have been crushed as if they were smashed against the wall repeatedly." The insides have been also ripped open." The heart, spleen, intestines, liver, and lungs have been completely devoured." " Also, these slaves have been burnt alive by some kind of creature so their death was fast by very painful.

This must be a passage or some kind of secret tunnel made by the slaves so they could escape." Cross stood on his feet and sighed, starting to head into the cave." Elanor was confused. " Wait, are we going inside?!" Cross turned and started nodding." Yes is that a problem?" Elanor sighed. " No." Let's go." Sarah walked in front of Elanor and chuckled. " What's the matter are you scared." Elanor sucked her teeth. " No, I not afraid." Why would you think of that?" Sarah rolled her eyes and followed behind Cross and Jessie who already headed into the cave. The reason Elanor didn't want to go inside the cave because she was afraid of the dark. Ever since she was a little kid. She didn't venture into dark caves because she didn't know what to expect.

Once when she was a child, she went into a cave and heard terrifying screams of children. She didn't know if it was real or if it was her imagination. As Elanor stepped into the cave, she stomped into a puddle of blood that strangely felt lumpy. She shoved her hand into her pocket and pulled out a lighter and struck it. She realized that she was standing on a leg. She kicked the leg to the side and followed behind, turning off her lighter. She stood behind Sarah. Ever since she saw Sarah, Elanor knew they wouldn't get along. After all, she did have intense sex with her husband. Cross didn't use a condom. Elanor told him to make sure he pulled out. She tapped Sarah on the shoulder. Sarah turned around and sucked her teeth. " What?" What do you want?" Elanor cleared her throat. " I think I'm going to join the other's." Tell Cross. Elanor turned around and ran out of the cave. Sarah rolled her eyes. " Yeah right." Sarah didn't bother to tell Cross anything.

Cross on the other hand came across a giant hole. He could clearly the bottom. There was water. Disgusting sewage water that had skeletons floating on top like apples. When Cross was about to jump into the hole, he started hearing loud roars echo through the dark cave. Cross turned around and asked Sarah and Jessie: Did you hear that?" Yeah we did why?" asked Sarah." We need to stick together." Anything can happen at any moment." said Cross. When Sarah looked at Jessie, she noticed that her son was staring into space. Jessie was talking to Loki. Loki was a bit smarter than Elanor.

He had information about almost anything that happened around the universe. Since he was the spawn of Rider, they both were very smart. Loki on the other hand had much potential. Secretly Loki was plotting something huge. So Loki what is this place?" asked Jessie. Hold on." Let me think for a second. A couple of seconds passed. This place is called The Slave Passage. The Slave Passage?" What's that?" asked Jessie. Loki sighed. Sheesh, don't you anything?" You need to go back to school." You've already missed so many weeks of school." Let me explain to you about this place."

This place was originally used as a passage for slaves to escape The Slave District. The passage was created by Barbury Dixon The Second the one responsible for causing The Legendary Slave Revolt that lasted for 4 months." Over 3,000 slaves escaped. Half of them survived and successfully escaped, while the other half died from starvation and sickness." Before Barbury Dixon was captured he managed to avoid capture for nearly 2 years.

When he was captured he was beaten, castrated, and burned alive in front of a crowd. Since this place hasn't been used by slaves in nearly 200 years, it is now the home of a bloodthirsty man-eating creature named Rex. This creature Rex is an ancient, huge, savagely, humanoid monster that resembles bigfoot with a cat face with batlike wings and claws. Rex sleeps upside down like a bat. In the night it flys through the skies eating anything it sets its eyes on. From livestock to humans." He is currently stalking us." said Loki. Now, do you understand little boy?" Jessie started smiling. Yes, I do." So what now?" Survive." Jessie placed a serious expression on his face and kneeled down on the ground, wiping his finger across the ground on some blood, wiping it on his face like shoe polish prepared and ready for Rex to strike.

Suddnely Rex flew down from the ceiling of the cave and tackled Cross, causing him to slam his head in the walls of the dark cave. Cross!" shouted Sarah. Rex started roaring into Cross's face. Drool leaked into his face. " Get the fuck off of me!" Cross kneeled Rex in his nuts. Rex started laughing as his yellow and black eyes stared at Cross's sky blue eyes." Rex grabbed Cross by his neck and started strangling him. Rex sniffed Cross. it's been so long since I've tasted exquisite human meat."

Cross was surprised Rex could talk. His voice was dark and distorted. His claws started pinning into Cross's neck. Cross fired a metallic spike into Rex's chest. Rex started laughing. Rex's skin was tough like a diamond. He tossed Cross into the hole causing him to float downstream into the hidden passage. Rex looked at Sarah and flew towards her. Jessie was about to intervene but he remembered that his mother knew how to fight. Sarah lifted her leg and kicked Rex in his face. A single tooth, spit, and blood came out of Rex's mouth. " Ah." A woman." Rex started licking his lips.
