To the outside world,144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRDWEEb2GRv
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.144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfq1ifnguuh
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!"144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZKxHhpyICN
"Only until I can stop this awful noise."144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9KD7BaNGmn
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?"144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgr7zYOOcKb
"Well, some beetles do live in walls, but I think this one is just unique."144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡScBfkr3poP
"Will you two loud mouths keep it down!" the beetle screamed at us. "It's already bad enough hearing that blasted crying!"144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxmgkkAd8zr
"I came here to deal with it, do you know where it's coming from?"144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCcV3VHYbSb
"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."144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVJImTYb3lp
"No can do. I've dealt with crazier things than this."144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGNVjzjBWPV
"Yeah, and I can see how dealing with things has fried that pink blob of yours."144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlCzYtE9Y3R
"You mean the brain?"144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPCiQebc3zP
"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."144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdtOcziXWay
"Just so you know, our species has a history of eating insects."144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQ44215VKd
The beetle fled back into its tent. "Just continue forward and you should come across it."144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJuOPNyOaZ4
"Saira, stop being mean to the beetle."144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJEhR66xWR
"It was being mean first!"144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtWRGCDHLPA
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."144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCpIEHqItge
