Taste of Youth: Chapter 29

Chris P.O.V

After Josh fell through the trapdoor, the doors slammed shut, the light disappeared plunging us into darkness.

"Nobody move." I said as my eyes adjusted to the darkness and I took my glasses off. I could see perfectly in the darkness, so no problem there. I scanned the room for Katherine and Cheyyenne, they were standing in the exact same point they were standing earlier.

I turned around to face the computer. It seemed like a normal computer, but it didn't go haywire when I touched it.

Suddently, I heard Cheyyenne scream, I turned around to see that she had disappear.

"Cheyyenne!" Kat screamed.

I scanned the room again, my heart sank when I saw a coccoon-like thing on the ceilling and it was moving. It couldn't be Cheyyenne could it?

Then I heard the thump thump above me, the sound of footsteps. Someone was upstairs. The sound came closer till it was right above me.

"I will deal with the Athena-spawn later. First I will deal with you so can't save her." A cold voice came from behind me said, no it wasn't behind me. It was coming from above me. Then I realised someone was not upstairs, he/she were walking on the ceiling!

I rolled out of the way as, the thing above my head dropped from the ceiling on to where I was originally standing. I took a good look at the monster, the lower half of it's body was a spider, eight legs and all that, but the upper part was human, to be more specific a women.

"Arachne." I scowled.

"Yes child. I am Arachne. I was brought her by that red haired man so I could destroy you! Especially that Athena-spawn. Oh how despite her." The spider-lady said.

So that thing on the ceiling was Cheyyenne. I made a mental note to save her later.

"Only you Nyx-Spawn can fight me now, in this total darkness, due to your abilities. Unfortunately, she cannot do the same!" It took me a moment to realise she was talking about Kat. Arachne shot one of a webs at Kat, but grabbed her and pushed her out of the way in the last minute.

"You okay?" I asked Kat.

"Chris is that you? I can't see anything." Well of course she can't the room were we in was pitch black.

"Okay Kat stay here okay?" I left Kat in the corner.

"Yeah okay, it's not I know where to go anyway." Kat agreed.

I walked up to Arachne. "Man, I'm gonna need a bigger boot to step on you."

"Silence Mortal! Do you know who your talking too?!" Arachne exclaimed.

"All I see is a monster that is about to be killed."
