Chapter 14: The Lost
Please dont cry
You know Im leaving here tonight
Before I go I want you to know
There will always be a light
~Jet
Shuffling footsteps echoed through the narrow hallways, drowning out the innocent chirps of the gleeful birds after a long night sleep. Two figures dashed down the corridors towards the stairway, one with a long dress flowing behind her, and another with his black armor clinking and clanging together. They turned the corner and flew down the flight of stairs. With a yelp, the woman dripped over the hem of her dress and came tumbling down in the last few steps. The man, following close behind, tried to reach out to stop her, but lost his balance too, sending him hurling down to the foot of the stairwell.
