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.239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ68b20oF1P
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!"239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxg1uGBZie
"Only until I can stop this awful noise."239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtvNHKnX5LG
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?"239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj0QVPWqYfY
"Well, some beetles do live in walls, but I think this one is just unique."239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZVt3RawiWZ
"Will you two loud mouths keep it down!" the beetle screamed at us. "It's already bad enough hearing that blasted crying!"239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlPmvkEBSTH
"I came here to deal with it, do you know where it's coming from?"239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpIajZoLwGA
"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."239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFy0uYUKQqj
"No can do. I've dealt with crazier things than this."239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOxo4i9IoBq
"Yeah, and I can see how dealing with things has fried that pink blob of yours."239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLzUF8lS8nx
"You mean the brain?"239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjreyoKAym6
"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."239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4mC1opyjqf
"Just so you know, our species has a history of eating insects."239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡye9LNHcUyX
The beetle fled back into its tent. "Just continue forward and you should come across it."239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1cd6QXl6t9
"Saira, stop being mean to the beetle."239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmeG7OFAWoZ
"It was being mean first!"239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYwnSgqNfEZ
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."239Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOwCXZUapaT
