Hopefullness
You walk on, cautious. The cave you entered is pitch black...And you keep
tripping on boxes!!! Well, one thing for sure...Whoever's here must just be moving in!
It gets darker and darker, until you have to rely on the wall to
lead your way. After walking for minutes, you come to the end of the tunnel-like
cave. You frown, pretty sure there hadn't been another way. There is no sign of
anything. You find yourself wondering if this cave had been abandoned...And, if
so, why...Oh, goodness! Why did you come? Why? Curiousity, of course...That
thing that's always killing the darn cat!
"Oh, wow! We've a lost surfer!" you jump at the sound of an amused voice.
"H-hello?" surprised at your shaking voice, you don't go any further. No
use in making a fool of yourself.
A small flicker of light appears. You're relieved to see a girl in front of
you. You felt as if the cave was pulling in when you'd found the end.
Her clothes are all pink and white, and a bow covers her wild brown hair.
Her brown eyes are friendly and welcoming. She's small, maybe 5'6". A very normal, everyday person...Then, why was she sitting in the dark here?
"Hello, I'm Shelly! This room is still getting set up. You see, I'm moving some of my old stuff out because this place is just perfect for a dragon! I'm hoping to adopt one from
Featherdragon Empire.
"
"A....A...DRAGON! Why, its so narrow, I doubt an elephant could get
through! And its so dark, you'll never have a happy dragon HERE!"
Shelly laughs, not offended at all by your outburst,
"And its not high enough for a giraffe, either!
You came in the back way, my friend...But they are smaller than normal dragons, afterall.
There's many rooms off to the side from here, too. Sort of like its own home!
"Shelly? There's, uhm, no where else to go, and its really just a tad dark," you
say this hesitantly...Shelly has appeared to be such a cheerful person,
you don't want to get on her bad side!
Shelly frowns, "No? OH! I see...The torches aren't lit. The other rooms are up!
We have to climb up to get to them. Come on, I'll show you!"
"Climb? SHELLY!"
"Yep! Up the stairs we go!" Shelly bounds up some
stairs you hadn't previously noticed....But you're really glad you hadn't!
You're grateful you don't have to climb over some rocks...
Go on, up the stairs!
All right, all right...To the Index Page!
