Snippet #2720606

Sebastian had waited for Felix to reach the bottom of the staircase and laughed light heartedly as he jumped to his feet. “well i think we just won the award for least gracious pair.” Sebastian approached the orb and reached out to tap it but recoiled his hand realising, that was a bad idea, he didn’t even know if this was the correct thing; for all he knew it could blow them up.

He looked about and sighed. “It’s blacker Than a Rat’s ass i can barely see a damn thing.” he realised what he had said and chuckled shaking his head to himself, obviously amused.


He looked around before his patience wore thin enough for him to do the stupid thing and place his hand on the orb. nothing happened, he sighed and looked over to where he could see Felix's outline. “look around there could be something to help us”

Sebastian had to physically facepalm, they could barely see anything and he had just told Felix to look around, Sebastian, held his hands by one another and began to compress the air between them, small explosions and popping sounds began to grow louder and soon, he had formed a small ball of plasma, from the air around them, it was emitting light in a purple hue across the basement, this was no easy thing to maintain, but they had light enough.

Wraith now formed itself sat on one of the rotting chairs. “hmmm, well i'd have never thought to do that.” Wraith spoke with a surprised tone, though the hint of its core emotion there also, using what little light he had he began to search around.

twenty minutes or so pass and Sebastian has had to reignite his plasma ball a few times, though the air now thick with the smell of ozone; he came across some papers and began reading through them quickly skimming over them. “Hey, here look” he began reading over the instructions though they were scrawled in red ink? though they weren't the only set of instructions. Sebastian soon put out his light source and approached the machine, putting his non-dominant hand, his right, into the slot and clearly speaks. “Purgatory.”

the Device slowly coming to life and filling the basement with a low hum and a bright glow, Sebastian recoiled from the light. it was stinging his one good eye and soon enough the light faded and they were in the same basement though now it was lit up and organised more so than the other side, Wraith no longer visible and Sebastian was overcome with a fatigue and exhaustion, stepping away from the machine and taking his hand back he collapsed unable to draw the strength to keep standing.

Slowly he stuffed his hand into his mobile and began to ring his mother, luckily he had a few minutes free so the overseas charge wasn't going to punish him. it was a short call, maybe less than a couple minutes, but Sebastian spilled the beans and explained as much as his exhausted brain could remember, which for what its worth is quite a bit.

another ten minutes pass by before the orb lights up again and an elder woman, looking like she was in her late thirties appears, a pair of purple scaled wings crowning her back before fading from existence. the woman's voice that from the call. “it really does look like you boys have been through hell, no matter lets get you to the hospital”

Sebastian's mother stood just shy of six foot tall, and reached down to help her barely responsive son up off the floor and then Felix if he required it. “how did the pair of you end up on the other side then?” she had a soft caring voice though the stern upset tones rattled underneath it, Sebastian just chuckled.
