Chapter 8 - cause that's what friends do

" I can explain". asmien screamed in pain, it was like a thousand needles were protruding their bodies it felt really painful.

" and I wouldn't let you ,. if I cared. ". she laughed joyfully whilst they felt pain.

ralph thought it was weird but he was going to ask her if someone did something to her which drained all her emotions,

they were damn children

". try and keep your eyes open, I would hate to start over again." she raised her hands pointing them at asmien. now the pain she felt was far more higher than before. she felt like she was going to die ,. the pain made he close her eyes

" can't you do anything right, I said keep your eyes open "

" it was my fault. I made asmien take me to the nursery, I thought the cool stuff there might inspire me to write something cool ,..... she made me promise not to touch anything but I did ... please don't her "

ralph said, trying to save asmien.

natacha hesitated but let them go , they dropped to the ground, they were now free and the pain subsided

" how brave of you story teller,. to lie right to my face , ' she then turned to asmien who was now on the floor with tears

she laughed evilly

" I almost killed you ". ralph thought this woman was a bit weird

" if I didn't need you to clean up the mess, I would have ,"

she says as she turned around to leave " no more chance for you , little twit." natacha says as she exits the room

" I'm sorry I dragged you into this". asmien says with tears flickering from her eyes

" are you ok?"

" see from now on you help yourself and I help myself, ok" asmien was really sorry for letting ralph get all the heat for what she did "

" look asmien we can get out of here "

" no you can't you're just dreaming" asmien said while standing up , she was leaving the room .

when asmien was gone and ralph was alone he heard a noise coming from a closet , it sounded strange since nothing was supposed to be there .. he usually came to this room to write when he needed time from lomar ...

he walked close to the closet slowly, he opened it up and found just his bag there. the bag was shaking madly. he reached out his hand and zipped open the bag,.

then low and behold, he found a creature that looked like a spider Inside .. as soon as the bag was opened the demon spider ran out In a bid to escape

when ralph saw the demon spider again it was already behind him. he picked up a container on a table he was close to , he was going to trap it ..

the spider was still close to him , he jumped and dropped the container ...

pang...

surprisingly he was able to trap the spider so easily ... he was happy about this result .

he reached out for his shoes and brought them close to the container trapping the demon spider .

he took a deep breath,. he was going to hit the demon spider with he's shoe when he opened the container...

when he raised it up , the demon spider wasn't Down. he looked around and didn't see it , but when he checked inside of the container he saw the demon spider , it was perched inside the container , it jumped on his body and was crawling over him ... he struggled for a while and finally pulled it off him .

it fell on the floor and was running towards him again

' splash'.

now ralph finally got the demon spider. it was squashed and it's remains sprayed everywhere. but this time ralph wasn't as happy about this as before . he thought the demon spider might have been doing something inside his bag before ....

he walked up to his bag and opened it up,. all his completed and incomplete stories were shredded to pieces. now he knew why asmien called it shredder eggs earlier

ralph was sitting down in the library trying to write something, but nothing came to his mind . he was stranded " oh come on !!"

from book to book he threw on the floor checking for something to give him inspiration.

bang "

the door to the entrance of the library was pushed open , he wondered who it was asmien and she was holding something. " watch out lomar is here somewhere she's hurting"

" have you been here all night"

" yes all night" he replied

" I made these it'll help with the screeps and cuts "

" you made this for me?"

" yeah it's my own concoction, a kind of hallow from a hoppy plant , some dried corps hairvine ".

" that's good, really good ". ralph tasted it and complemented the good taste .

" thanks, "

" lomar , lomar come here !!". since the incident ralph and lomar had become closer friends. they were not that close but at least it was better than before .

lomar came running back with scratch marks all over its body, it was badly wounded " asmien here made it for us, here you go ". he gave lomar some off the medicine

he turned to asmien and said " I'm in trouble, I don't have any stories ". " what do you mean you don't have any stories, thought you said you had like a bunch of them ?"

" yes I had , but a shredder came into my room. and I killed it but it destroyed all of my night books, except for this one ,. I was reading to natacha from those night books, I've got nothing now ,.'. ralph was freaking out now to the point that he was shouting out loud ,. ' I have to escape I have no choice". " there are two ways out of this place , the front door where you came in or the back door and ". ralph didn't let her finish explaining he knew what she was going to say , " the back door !!, it leads outside I saw natacha leave through there ". " natacha is the only one who has the keys to that door ,. so you need to get over all these escape nonsense and write something"

" I've been trying!!"

" try harder " asmien yelled back

" I can't write !!,. look natacha's gonna find out tonight and she's going to kill me "

" she wouldn't just kill you ,.". she looked toward a counter where different toysized human characters where ranged there was more than a hundred of them, they assumed strange postures " there was four of us. edrix , little bob , clerr'r and me ... one was too young but the rest of us took turns in reading to natacha,. afterwards well all huddle together at night, dreaming about escaping"

" you're saying these are ?". " yes , and last night I almost joined them,. one day the kitchen sink got plugged natacha magic couldn't fix it. that's because I blocked the sink myself with star steel moss. it weakens magic , I wanted to force natacha to call a plumber. but she didn't she sent us to get it after that natacha asked who did it ,. and clerr'r took the blame that she did it, clerr'r lied to save me , like you did ,. cause that's what friends do.
