Chapter 14: Keep your friends close
"Were going out again?" Asked Jerome while leaning his head on his hand.
"Well, yeah." Said sky "we have to find the other guys. We can't give up"
"Sky...were never gonna find them. This place is huge" Tyler said.
"I thought you were with me Tyler" said sky, crossing his arms and looking directly at him.
"Well I..." Tyler tried to say.
"Sky your not the leader. And we can go out whenever everyone is ready." Said Ian
"Oh so your the leader then?" Sky spat back at him.
Sub laid his head down on the desk. He wanted to say something, like to tell them to not fight. But unfortunately, he couldn't. Bodil kept quiet too.
Ian sighed. "Then go out by yourself. I want to find them too, but nobody's really ready yet."
"Then come with me" sky said to him.
"Apparently you didn't understand anything I said..." Mumbled Ian under his breath.
"Sky stop it!" Jason said out loud
Everyone's attention went to Jason.
"We can't fight....were already sitting in hell. Fighting is making it worse. I'm sure Mitch, Brice, and Bashur would all agree." He continued
"Jason's right" said Bodil finally. Sub, who was next to him nodded.
Sky dropped to the ground and put his head in his hands. Everyone's head lowered to the ground. The spirits had once again been brought down, but this time on there own accord.
"If you weren't here, I don't know where id be" seto smiled as he looked down at his friend.
"Heh...thank you" Clocky smiled back.
"Why can't you tell me anything?" Seto asked.
"Because he will here.....and he'll get mad..." Clocky replied, his gaze turning to the ground as he walked.
"Can you at least help me find the others? Or tell me if there ok?"
"Master said that he wants you to not find them...or know anything" he replied again. "Sorry.."
"It's ok I guess..." Seto sighed "but then why would he leave this book sitting around?" He took the book out and showed it to him.
Clocky looked at it for a moment. "I don't know what that is.." He said.
"It shows the times of people's death. But only when it's a few minutes before" seto explained.
"Oh...well I don't know why he would leave that around..he doesn't tell me things like that." He responded
"Alright then." Seto said. He put the book away "do you have to leave soon?"
"Soon. But not yet." He said. "I can walk with you more."
"Ok." Seto smiled "it nice having company"
Clocky smiled back. "Yeah. It is"
"Sky? Are you ready to go?" Jason asked sky who was still sitting on the ground.
"H-huh..?" He looked up at him "were going?"
"Yeah." Jason replied "we decided to go out. But this time we have to make sure to get back early"
"Ok" sky said as he stood up. "Who's all going?"
"Me, you, bodil, and sub" Jason simply stated. "Well, that is if you want to go"
"Well, duh" sky said, half smiling.
"Sub and you get the swords" bodil said walking over and handing him the stone sword.
"Thanks" sky said looking at him
Bodil nodded and smiled "it's good to see you back to normal. Now I can make "stupid" jokes again!"
Sky laughed along with bodil and Jason.
"There not that stupid" said Jason
"But your that stupid to find them that stupid" bodil giggled.
"Ok...that wasn't funny..." Jason mumbled.
"So can we go now? Were wasting time..." Sky said, glancing at the clock that was in the room. It was about 20 minutes to four o' clock.
"Yeah. Come on sub!" Bodil said.
Sub stood up from where he was sitting. He held onto the sword with a firm grip and walked over to the door with the others.
"Be carful guys...and come back earlier" Ian told them.
"Don't die" said Tyler.
"We won't" bodil joked. "Just a little bit"
"How can you die a little bit?" Jerome yelled from the other side of the room.
"I don't know" bodil shrugged.
"Oh shut up" sky said, keeping back a smile.
The four boys, once again, headed out into the blackness of the hallway.
"Ew...I forgot that it smelled really bad out here..." Said Jason, covering his nose.
"Learn to deal, Moyat priyatel" bodil said while nudging him.
"What the hell does that mean?" Sky asked, walking backwards to face them.
" 'my friend' " bodil said "learn Bulgarian"
"I'll try" he replied, facing foreword again.
"I don't think we have the time though" said Jason after laughing a bit.
"Yeah. But someday" bodil replied, continuing to follow everyone.
Sub kept his nose covered. He hated the smell if blood.
"It is getting stronger isn't it?" Said sky, sniffing the air a bit.
"Yeah...maybe there's a room with a bunch of dead people" bodil responded.
"Ew...I don't want to find that..." Jason said disgusted.
After a while of walking they came across a door. The smell was the strongest there. They were afraid to try and open the door.
"I think you were right bodil..." Said sky as he looked at the door.
"I don't think sub wants to go in" Jason said after looking at subs expression.
"I don't think anyone does, Jason." Bodil said back.
"Were not going in" said sky. "Just...looking inside" he placed his hand on the cold, shinny door knob and turned it.
He pushed the door open and the fresh smell of blood filled there noses. This time, all of them covered there noses. There was a single red light shining down of the room. Blood and body's where everywhere.
"Oh my god...." Mumbled Jason.
"I think they were recently killed...they look and smell like it.." Said bodil.
"Who in there right mind could do such a thing...?" Sky asked rhetorically.
Sub looked away. He couldn't stand looking at anymore body's, even if he didn't even know them.
"We probably shouldn't be here..." Said Jason. "Just close the door and let's go..we should probably be heading back anyway"
Sub looked at the clock. There were only ten minutes to four. He walked over to sky and closed the door. He pointed to the way were they came from.
"Yeah...ok" sky sighed.
They four boys headed back the way they came to go reunite with the others.
"Hopefully they should be here soon..." Said Jerome as he looked at the clock.
"Yeah...if it's one of them" Ian said back.
"But the thing can get inside, remember?" Tyler said as he too looked at the clock.
"I know" Ian replied "but they have the swords and they could still try as protect is if there here"
"I guess so.." Tyler sighed.
"Now time to play the waiting game..." Jerome said as he dazed off into space.
"That's sure true..." Ian said in reply.
