CHAPTER 22 : T H E  G I R L

"Are we out of the woods yet? Are we in the clear yet?

- Taylor Swift, Out of the Woods

How do we get that clue? I don't want to put my hand in there. Hell no. Hell to the NO. With a capital N-O. I don't wanna bleed to death. Ugh. How in the fucking world do I do this?

I sighed then groaned then ran a hand through my hair. I looked at the fox and for a second there, I saw its eyes change color. Like, from black to a dark color of red then back to black. Though, I shrugged it off. It was just the lighting. They couldn't have changed colors, right? Right.

I looked at the bush. Looks like I'll prick my finger if I even go nearer. I took out the first clue. Maybe I'll find something written here or something. I looked at it closely and turned it around. Nothing. None. Empty. Blank. Goddamn it.

I know, not many clues
But go straight
A sleeping beauty
Of hollow vibes
Tears drop from its eyes
Inside
There you will find

Okay. Sure. We're supposed to look for sleeping beauty. Amazing. Just... great. Note the sarcasm.

"3 minutes left, fighters. The prize or the names? Or both? If you give up, come back. Move faster. Look around. That is all for now." Damiano's voice called out through the hidden speakers. Shit. I'm going for the prize. I don't even fucking care anymore.

I ran forward with the footsteps of the fox following behind me.
