Chapter 18
Mitch's pov
Taxey was leading us back to where I found my way down here. We passed by the walls where the hands stuck out of the wall. I can't imagine what Sky went through just to get here, what a nightmare. He seemed to grimace each time we passed one.
"Don't worry, we're almost at the end." I reassured Sky.
He didn't look back at me but he nodded his head in reply.
"Come on! We're almost at the end." Taxey exclaimed.
She was acting like the lost Taxey we met way before. Same energy and childish as always. I honestly miss this Taxey, I don't know what could've happened that caused her to become psycho.
We finally made it to the end of the hall and facing the green door. Taxey was beaming but the rest of us were still scared. She opened the door and a painting of a red woman jumped up at her. Taxey didn't seem to mind and was knocked to the ground laughing.
"Ok ok! Just let me and my guests pass through alright?" She told the woman, she replied with some inaudible whispers and went back into the room.
Taxey got up and giggled slightly. She gestured for us to follow her and we did. She skipped into the room with the statutes that were barley touching ceiling, the woman was in the corner. We all stayed silent as she led the way, I can't believe we're actually going to escape. Seto and Ty were still talking to each other silently, and Sky. Well ,he was silent and not really as happy as I expected him to be.
"Sky, what's the matter?" I asked, he looked at me with those beautiful golden eyes.
"I'm just scared, you know?" He replied, he clenched his hands into fists.
"Yeah, but can't you believe we're actually gonna make it back."
"But that's the problem, how can coming back be so easy? It just doesn't feel right."
I nodded, how can coming back be so easy? I never thought of that before. Taxey hummed some song, sounded kind of creepy though. We exited the room and faced the blue vase that saved my life. The hall split into the two directions, one way that led to where I lost my rose.
"Come on guys, we're not that far now!" Taxey squealed, the rest of us smiled a bit.
"Hey Seto, what do you expect to see back in reality?" I asked.
"Well I was hoping to know if Brice is alright." Seto smiled weakly, he must really miss that guy.
"What about you ,Ty?"
"I was going to see if Jerome is alright too, man I miss that guy." Ty beamed, happy to know we're going to escape soon.
I looked at Sky, who was finally smiling, looked back at me with immeasurable happiness.
"We're going to escape, finally!" He whooped.
I chuckled at his random energy, looks like he's finally lighting up. Taxey was still humming that creepy song when she opened the door. I anticipated to see that blue lady, but she didn't jump out.
"We're so close!" Taxey cried out in pure joy.
Looks like the end of this journey is so close. I grinned, I can't wait to escape, and at least see Sky's family. He told me about them, they seem like an amazing couple. The end is so close.
