Chereads / Pointless Vindication / Chapter 2 - CH.2) Forward

Chapter 2 - CH.2) Forward

'Forward it is then.'

Obliging by Zenith's words I moved forward into the expansive darkness infront of me.

Using the side of the wall as a type of help I moved forward with Zenith on my back.

Zenith would constantly look over my shoulder as if she could see into the expansive darkness which enshrouded us.

Me on the other hand just moved forward mindlessly unaware of the dangers which could lurk infront of us like a wandering soul.

Vivy had been walking for about 10 minutes until her hands felt not the cold stone wall, but the relatively neutral temperature of another pod.

Inside of the pod was another person who looked dead yet their body, which completely paralleled the dead look on his face, was well intact with both skin and bone in top condition.

Zenith jumped off Vivy's backed and then proceeded to throw a rock at the pod causing it to crack and then break, letting out the water within.

I turned to look forward towards the seemingly never ending darkness ahead,as I wondered if there even is an exit to this place.

Turning back to Zenith I saw the glass on the ground and the pools of water below her feet...but no bod-

"Let's go!!"

Zenith energetically said once she jumped on my back and patted it signaling that she was ready to continue.

***

It had felt like we had been walking for an entire day,but I wouldn't know since there was now way to perceive time here,until we finally reached the end of the long stone hall.

We had passed so many of the pods I had lost count already.

Touching the end of the stone hall I was met with even more stone-not a doorway.

I then started touching even more of the stone walls surface,until I had double checked the entire wall, then I triple checked it,but to no avail.

Dead end

"This is the wrong way. We have to walk all the way back and continue backwards." Vivy

"Oke"

Zenith hopped back on my back and then I turned around and headed back to were we came from.

***

After walking past all the broken pods that Zenith opened we pasted the pod we broke out of and continued past it towards the exit.

Many more pods were broken open by Zenith and the body's within them disappeared.

After walking through the darkness of the stone hall for many more days we reached the actual exit.

Standing tall in front of us a huge wooden door with two stone statues to its left and right acting as guardians.

Setting Zenith down I walked closer to the huge door,put both of my hands on it, and pushed with all my strength.

Slowly creaking open the door started to moved outward as it let light through the small opening in the middle.

Blocking our eyes me and Zenith looked out upon the world.
