Heres the first two chapters!
CHAPTER 1
That voice
"Crystal?...CRYSTAL?!"
The voice echoed in the distance. She fumbled for the switch as her head spun uncontrollably, disorientating shapes moved in front of her like ballerinas dancing across her vision.
"Just one foot after the other" she thought to herself, that's all her brain could manage. The fear and adrenalin kicking in coursing through her veins as she knew her almost certain death was near.
Her fingers trailed along the rugged stone walls like sand paper on her finger tips. “Just find the switch, do it...do it NOW” With every step every twist and turn her body made she could feel herself loosing grip on reality... the venom was kicking in...
First her toes then her feet, she was starting to lose sensation, she could no longer feel the pounding of her bare feet against the frozen iron. She began to worry... she must not lose feeling in her fingers without them she would not be able to find the switch. “I hope my eyes go first” she spoke to herself “least that way I won’t be able to see what awaits me” but all that came out was “nmph errp humprr” as the venom started to paralyse her lips, her cheeks... her throat..
First a small speck, sashayed across her vision, one two three...one two three. That speck became a blob and then a lump, very slowly white light blocked her vision as she treaded onwards.. one two three...one two three. She began to gasp for air as she felt her throat giving in, wrapped by the venom, like a snake wraps its prey before it goes in for the kill.
She musnt give up, the white light had completely covered her vision. She could feel her body giving up.. the pounding of her heart slowing down, “this is it” she thought as her legs gave way and she tumbled to the ground, smashing her head on the floor, loosing all sense of reality, and her mind faded into darkness.
If you have time please please please review all three it would be ever so helpful!
