Chapter 79 : Chaos

*Xander*

Henry slept, but I couldn’t sleep through the screeching that was funneling through the cave’s entrance. I hugged my knees and waited, and waited, and waited for Henry to wake up and explain to me what the hell was going on.

The story of what happened to Carly ran through my mind on replay, twisting my stomach into a knot. I’d tell Lena, of course, when I saw her again. I pushed the imagery out of my mind, praying to whoever was listening that I’d have a moment’s peace and rest.

But there was no time to dwell, because when he did wake, I was quickly ushered back through the entrance of the tunnel without so much as a word. Pinkish light reflected off the shards of glass he’d propped along the tunnel, showing us the first glimpses of day.

“Days are short here,” he said in a muttered whisper, urging me to keep walking forward. “You don’t have much time.”

“What–”

“Go. Go back to the portal you came out of and get out of here. Do not return.”

I tried to explain to him the situation I was in, how Lena had trapped me and the realm I’d come from was nothing more than the product of her mind, but he wouldn’t hear any of it.

We reached the entrance of the cave and I gaped over the sweeping, mountain landscape. It was barren–not a tree or scrub in sight. Rocky bluffs rose from the ground beneath us as he pushed me toward the outcrop of scale we’d come down on the night before.

“Come with me,” was all I could say, but he shook his head.

“I need to find Elaine. I’m getting close.”

Before I could reply, he gave me enough of a push that I had no choice but to step onto the scale and hold on to the mountain’s side to maintain my balance, or risk falling hundreds of feet to my death.

He was gone, retreating back into the cave without saying goodbye.

“f**k!” I cried out, filled to the brim with frustration. I climbed back to the peak, an arduous journey that took me nearly an hour and left me coated with shale fragments and sweat. In the light of day I couldn’t see the swirling mass that had been above my head the night before, but I could feel the energy of it radiating down on me as I reached the mountain’s peak.

What was I supposed to do? Jump as high as I could with my arms outstretched? I rolled my eyes and ran my hand over my face.

I jumped, and nothing happened. I raised my arms over my head and grabbed at the air. Nothing.

“What the f**k am I supposed to do?” I cursed, ruffling my hair with my hands in frustration.

But then a scream ripped through the air above my head. I paused, listening to the whispers of chaos that were beginning to swirl around me, embracing me.
