"Hello?.. Is anybody there?" Ashley asked.
There was no other response except the scratching. She was reluctant. Maybe it was false hope again. It was quite suspicious. Maybe it was just a rat or a lizard.. Or a big cockroach—
*Thud!Thud!
As if sensing her uncertainty it knocked back at her,startling her.
"Y-You—"
She was cut off when it answered with a scratch upon hearing her voice.
"... don't know how to speak, do you?" then it knocked back again.
*Thud!
She blinked. 'It's definitely not a rat or something like that' she muttered under her breath. The thing or the person who was at the other side of the wall seemed to understand her because it would respond to her. Ashley's was suddenly enveloped with curiosity. She wanted to see who or what was on the other side. But first she had to find a way to get there. She needed to break the wall.
