Wow.  I'm actually updating kinda regularly.  Does this mean I don't get stuff thrown at me anymore?  Please?

Anxiety POV

I don't know.  Blue or gold?!  I've been staring at the two doors for forever.  Or maybe only a minute.  I finally groaned and looked up.  The ceiling was a swirling void of dark colors.  I reached up but couldn't touch it.  It seemed ever expanding.  I looked at the walls and saw the same.  The floor was darks brown wood. 

I looked behind me.  The wall behind me was different. It was wooden as well.  It had many niches and cracks.  I ran my hand over it and it creaked.  I turned back and glanced at the two doors, hand still on the wall.

I could have sworn I heard a voice.  It said, "I'm Sorry."  I looked up.  Maybe the voice is Akuji. 

I called out, "Hello?"

I heard it again, but the voice was so faint.  As if they were calling from miles away down a deep tunnel.  I couldn't make out almost any words. 

All I heard was, "I-......re-....don-....gold, bl-....il-.....ta-.....wood."

I tried to piece together what that meant.  I heard wood clearly.  I turned back to the wooden wall and pressed.  I felt it give way slightly.  I pushed along and found the right side went farther than the left.  I pressed hard on the right side until it finally gave way and opened.  The way through looked like....a hallway.

Wow.  Dundun dun!!! Hallway!! I looked in.  It was a dimly lit hallway.  Not so bright that it was overpowering, but not so dark it felt scary.  I walked in and looked at the walls.  Lining them were pictures and drawings.  The pictures were just like the ones I had in my room.  But those were destroyed when my room...... The drawings were both those made by Thomas and some of my favorite fan art that I'd found.  I smiled softly.

I think I chose well.

Ok.  See?  No cliffhanger because I'm updating another chapter today.  That's why this took so long, I held it until I could release two to prevent a cliffhanger!  In other news, I didn't get anything thrown at me today!!!!!
