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.7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCJQpGdS53D
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!"7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ42ygI1XMME
"Only until I can stop this awful noise."7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTt5gwkwLJZ
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?"7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRWlicYfLuu
"Well, some beetles do live in walls, but I think this one is just unique."7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnfswiz0jOL
"Will you two loud mouths keep it down!" the beetle screamed at us. "It's already bad enough hearing that blasted crying!"7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWxSVwua2fp
"I came here to deal with it, do you know where it's coming from?"7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjlHwLF9bB
"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."7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGNcJlXJW3E
"No can do. I've dealt with crazier things than this."7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa4RcCuF4rs
"Yeah, and I can see how dealing with things has fried that pink blob of yours."7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpzX2ZKRcNG
"You mean the brain?"7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCFEoHzkR4v
"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."7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQnDOV9Zhh
"Just so you know, our species has a history of eating insects."7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9YjG0oaPtQ
The beetle fled back into its tent. "Just continue forward and you should come across it."7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0VJ27puP04
"Saira, stop being mean to the beetle."7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzjNyzt9tYX
"It was being mean first!"7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD8V1mN5nMX
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."7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbLXtJclXma
