After only a what seemed like minutes Ki noticed something odd,a dark smoke around her.Sitting back up she looked all around the area but found nothing,rubbing her eyes she sighed,"Just gettin tired and old Ki,stop jumpin at shadows."She muttered at herself before stretching out her arms and standing up,shaking off the sleepy feeling she had.But as she reached for her pack something slithered its way up her arm,leaving an icy feeling on her skin."Ahhhh!"She yelled tumbling back over a fallen block."What the...?"Looking all around again she saw nothing,that was until the two small glowing orbs caught her eye. "Who's there?!"She called pushing to her feet.From the inky blackness came a strange small creature,which looked her over,blinked its glowing eyes, and immediately slithered up her arm again,this time not leaving such a chill.
Confused,Ki looked over the small creature which was wrapped around her wrist.Its inky looking body and wings were fascinating to her,but its glowing eyes were what really drew her to it.The eyes changed colors from the mischievous gold color to a calmer blue,as though it was showing her its emotions. "Heh...Go figure I'd end up with some strange tag along..."She huffed at it,causing its little eyes to turn a deep blue and its head to lower. "Ah,c'mon I didn't mean that...You're actually kinda cute."Sighing when it continued to seem sad she reached down and petted its dark feather like head,causing it to perk up.Shaking her head Ki looked around before picking up her pack again. "Well I'll guess your coming along,eh?" She asked the strange creature before heading up the crumbling stairs and into the entry way of the cathedral.Inside the dark large hallway she found a spot against the wall and leaned back,pulling out a map
Bottles smashed, I raised my hand
How can you all even stand?
And why is there joy in this poison? Oh
Faking smiles and confidence
Driving miles to capture this excitement
I can't take anymore
You're never gonna get it
I'm a hazard to myself
I'll break it to you easy
This is hell, this is hell
You're looking and whispering
You think I'm someone else
This is hell, yes
I am in hell
