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.175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLkNf0ZE1av
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!"175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX7UWsBnqmk
"Only until I can stop this awful noise."175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS1E4s9hHVd
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?"175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjNP61aAH0f
"Well, some beetles do live in walls, but I think this one is just unique."175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdlarvvAeXI
"Will you two loud mouths keep it down!" the beetle screamed at us. "It's already bad enough hearing that blasted crying!"175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9c7jUQjU1d
"I came here to deal with it, do you know where it's coming from?"175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEUXVbAXsgD
"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."175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡza0wLnl5JW
"No can do. I've dealt with crazier things than this."175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPT1raTjlKK
"Yeah, and I can see how dealing with things has fried that pink blob of yours."175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGswzQ5UPJE
"You mean the brain?"175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNJLSKeXC5s
"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."175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡub7X1eO2UQ
"Just so you know, our species has a history of eating insects."175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9RYu8AU5Zk
The beetle fled back into its tent. "Just continue forward and you should come across it."175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAhPMdT0j3U
"Saira, stop being mean to the beetle."175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡniAZVl5nYf
"It was being mean first!"175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkEPU1PkQR5
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."175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpPul5NHxhw
