42 Just Like Tha (2/2)
They enter the door and are welcomed by more stairs which leads upwards, and like before they cautiously walked up as the little orb led the way. To their luck, the walk was rather uneventful, as they were facing another door.
They agree to cautiously open the door and prepare for battle, and after counting down from three and opening it, nothing attacked them. In fact, they were welcomed to a gorgeous scenery.
They were welcomed to a beautiful grand hall, which seemed to be enormous. The floor was made out of a stunning glossy wood, that would make the floors of many homes on Earth look like dirt grounds. There was a huge velvet carpet laying on the wooden ground, full of floral patterns. The walls were beautiful too, as it looked gray and glossy. There were paintings of strange objects, weapons, as well as flawless landscapes. These paintings were flawlessly made, as each of them looked almost like a picture. The outline of these paintings were golden, making the room they were welcomed to much more extravagant.
As they began to step into the hall they noticed more things, such as medieval like furniture, and beautiful stairs that started off as one but then separated into two stairs which connected to opposite sides of the second floor. These stairs were wooden, with golden trimming, making everyone feel absolute awe.
As they continued to look, they noticed that the stairs connected to a balcony that was made over the whole hall, and as they admired this scenery, a voice came from the back, ”Above us! Watch out!”
Everyone turned to look at what Priya was pointing towards and from the balcony, six ratmen jumped down with rusty old daggers on hand. They dropped right over the group, showing their lack of brain cells, or is it? Their attack was successful as the huge body of Candreva was slow to move, as the rusty knives of a ratman penetrated his two shoulder blades sending blood everywhere.
Seeing this, Niko released all of his spirits at once, and Zheng moved in to help as well. There was chaos, and as the ratman who stabbed Candreva was about to give the finishing blow, Eitan comes in and slashes towards the ratman cutting its chest deeply, but his slashed left him out of balance as another rusty knife stabbed right into his neck.
”Gush!”
Blood flowed like a fountain as Eitan fell to the ground gripping his neck.
”Swosh!” A stinger completely penetrated the head of the ratman that had stabbed Eitan falling down lifeless.
Niko looked towards Candreva who was unconscious on the ground as well as Eitan, and his heart dropped. They couldn't get a rest. Were they going to lose their lives here?
