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.136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz4JPIKDWqk
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!"136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3VXLEG9FNF
"Only until I can stop this awful noise."136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMyWBab1pBq
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?"136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvzaVL7HxO2
"Well, some beetles do live in walls, but I think this one is just unique."136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt1Gndqrb5g
"Will you two loud mouths keep it down!" the beetle screamed at us. "It's already bad enough hearing that blasted crying!"136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTFh8o7wran
"I came here to deal with it, do you know where it's coming from?"136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAc4y9NZCWs
"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."136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ppMIpYCiL
"No can do. I've dealt with crazier things than this."136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhu2WpK8QMN
"Yeah, and I can see how dealing with things has fried that pink blob of yours."136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnq3PuohlEA
"You mean the brain?"136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4WDVSQQ9Xn
"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."136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡapUqDMZBFv
"Just so you know, our species has a history of eating insects."136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPDyyQmWS8Q
The beetle fled back into its tent. "Just continue forward and you should come across it."136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmFcJ5oJW4x
"Saira, stop being mean to the beetle."136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5EJ24fwxTp
"It was being mean first!"136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNyDpvv97JF
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."136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRNOoayIWj8
