I consumed the potion that Ivy gave me. It was bitter and tasted a lot like cough syrup. I shrunk down to the size of a mouse and entered the walls. The groaning was almost too intense for my tiny ears to handle; I think my head might explode if it got any louder.148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPM2WhXeDay
Ivy crawled through the wall with me and she barely made it. If it came down to the worst case scenario, she was capable of disassembling herself. She smiled politely, putting her two twig arms together. "I guess I'm the older sister now, Saira!"148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg0HRRfNIfI
"Only until I can stop this awful noise."148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxIjQfW9b96
The walls had a long path of pipes inside of it, and I climbed my way to the top. I noticed a small tent in the distance, and something was crawling out of it. "Why does that beetle have a tent, and why is it living in my metal walls?"148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmxAQ9R6wZq
"Well, some beetles do live in walls, but I think this one is just unique."148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoL7XNbiuuQ
"Will you two loud mouths keep it down!" the beetle screamed at us. "It's already bad enough hearing that blasted crying!"148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJqyxIKhcBM
"I came here to deal with it, do you know where it's coming from?"148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9VBB9NWyeI
"No, and I don't want to. It sounds like it would eat me alive in a heartbeat. I try to stay away from hungry predators, and you should do the same."148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ln75kvlIB
"No can do. I've dealt with crazier things than this."148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCLw9JnYoXA
"Yeah, and I can see how dealing with things has fried that pink blob of yours."148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk0GSPZ0Uwp
"You mean the brain?"148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF3Vbs53wfY
"What other pink blob could I be referring to? Actually, don't answer that. I don't want to learn any more about your terrible species."148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDvWxcK6wsL
"Just so you know, our species has a history of eating insects."148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf566DrIB0F
The beetle fled back into its tent. "Just continue forward and you should come across it."148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmg9PzSn35G
"Saira, stop being mean to the beetle."148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhrTDWhsbYI
"It was being mean first!"148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLLOYjsiPly
We continued our journey through the wall. I stayed close to Ivy as the walls faded into a dark, rotten green. "We'll be okay, Saira."148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe9huuCfYNi
