To the outside world,94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtu1mZ0fNoU
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.94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxdmBZ7mZZf
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!"94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKEsLKWFzdx
"Only until I can stop this awful noise."94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3wrL4RYRnh
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?"94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg3MXBzgjJR
"Well, some beetles do live in walls, but I think this one is just unique."94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVnpf2WMhPw
"Will you two loud mouths keep it down!" the beetle screamed at us. "It's already bad enough hearing that blasted crying!"94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2XZQZYdg2o
"I came here to deal with it, do you know where it's coming from?"94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvSYOQKjXa3
"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."94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3D480TyFHd
"No can do. I've dealt with crazier things than this."94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3kMRllCS2w
"Yeah, and I can see how dealing with things has fried that pink blob of yours."94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFzoIQqoRv3
"You mean the brain?"94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQbcEQg7W6
"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."94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwmBXUoPLmr
"Just so you know, our species has a history of eating insects."94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡipfVotAMIZ
The beetle fled back into its tent. "Just continue forward and you should come across it."94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ55ntG8GqIi
"Saira, stop being mean to the beetle."94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjuFmXRhE9n
"It was being mean first!"94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHvuoiCcKDo
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."94Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKtPFAd9u3h
