My eyes open to near darkness, where am I? Last thing I remember was fighting the goblins, then the mountain troll. Looking around the room the first thing I notice is the candle giving me light, second thing is this room has no doors...how did I get in here? My heart begins racing, where is everyone else? Tate...Titan, Bit...ANYONE? I'm alone. Skulls are strewn about, it seems I'm not the first person to be trapped in here but what I still can't figure out is how I got in here with no door? I'm surrounded by solid stone, this makes no sense. "HELP! Somebody...HEEEEEEEEELP." My plea for help seems to fall upon deaf ears. Where is Tate? Or even Titan and Bit for that matter, I can't imagine they would just leave me...would they? I feel my eyes starting to tear up and soon warm liquid is running down my cheeks, I don't understand what is happening. I'm getting scared and I begin to cry, cry hard for several minutes and then it hits me, where did this candle come from? Someone clearly left it for me which means they will probably be coming back. I take a deep breath and begin trying to calm my nerves, I need to focus on how I got here. I scan my thoughts looking for me memories but all I get is my life leading up to the goblin battle, nothing after. How can I have absolutely no memories, was I knocked out and unconscious? I guess that would explain the lack of memories but it doesn't explain this room with no doors, I begin panicking again. "Such a shame when I see such a beautiful woman so sad." The voice comes from behind me, I spin around and see a little boy standing before me. He doesn't look like he could be more than 11 years of age. "How did you get in here boy? I found no doors...can you help me get out? The little boy smiles and its then that I notice his yellow eyes, this is no mere child. "I can most certainly assist you in escaping this room, it would be my pleasure." The boy smiles again and it sends a chill down my spine, I can feel my hands beginning to tremble. This boy terrifies me! Every part of me is screaming to run away, the problem is that their is nowhere to run. He begins approaching me and by the time he reaches me I can feel my body is paralyzed from fear. His creepy smile never waivers, he looks me in the eyes and says four words... "Let's make a deal." ** Part 28 is posted in the writers gallery due to size in case you missed it, it can be found here.... http://www.renderosity.com/mod/gallery/index.php?image_id=2472066&section_id=35&genre_id=&np
