Chapter 2: Abandoned - Part 2
"This is really weird. I don't know why but I'm feeling a bit uneasy. Hey Kim bro, why don't we return for now?"Jay said this with a shrill voice. His words were wavering as if they didn't want to leave his mouth.
"Hahaha, what are you saying? We are having a wonderful time here. We are almost at the boss's room. We will clear it and return at once. Don't be scared. Hahaha"was what Kim said to attract attention to himself.
The remaining hunters were also laughing at what Jay had said. He was a bit frustrated as his words were completely neglected but at the same time the feeling of uneasiness kept on bothering him.
Jay was turning his head towards his left and right again and again repeating it every second. And on seeing this some of the hunters criticized him and were asking him if it was a Circus show.
But no matter how angry Jay was, he kept his cool and humbly accepted all the criticism.
Soon 30 minutes passed and all of them reached the boss's room.
Well it was quite unusual because the door at the entrance was 20 times bigger than any other door that was found till now.
All of them were quite bewildered at the sight. They were surprised as well as happy as they believed that they would get would get greater rewards.
So they immediately tried to open the door that was standing majestically. All the hunters used their brute force to push the door open, however their efforts failed.
They repeated the process and tried again and again. However, every time they would fail to move the door even by an inch.
So they decided to take some rest and then try later.
Some of the hunters had the expression showing that they were tired and some were breathing quite heavily.
Some or the other way they all had lost their confidence and dedication. Some had even lost their patience and wanted to go back immediately. The atmosphere was dull and all they could do was cuss about the door.
But no one had paid attention to Jay Down.
He was the only one among them who had a different expression.
He was quite shocked by seeing the door.
"This... this door. Where have I seen this before?" While scratching his head Jay started to think deeply about it.
Jay felt that he was somewhat close to the door. It was as if he had already seen the door previously somewhere.
He was lost in his thoughts and before he could realize, he was already near the door.
"Fabulous... this door... no... This isn't door!!!"
He suddenly remembered something.
"This... this is a gate! The gate of Reus"
He suddenly said that without even knowing anything. It was something that suddenly came up in his mind.
He slowly went close to it and touched it lightly.
"Eh? What am I doing? Sigh... I should go back and eat something."
He immediately started to walk with his back faced towards the gate.
He had hardly walked 20-30 steps when suddenly, the door started moving.
"Wh-what is happening? The door! THE DOOR!"
All the hunters shouted by looking at the door.
The door moved all the way and a wide entrance was created.
All the hunters suddenly stood up and started running towards the entrance as they wanted to be the first one to get the reward.
Jay was no different. He too wanted to get the rewards and by seeing the hunters go, he started following them. But as soon as he had decided to go, a voice suddenly told him something.
"D-don't go... it is dangerous."
"Eh? Who"
Chapter 3: Abandoned - Part 3
"Eh? Who...?"
Jay looked turned his head right and then left. He tried to look for the sudden voice that he heard but he couldn't find anything.
"Weird... I can swear that I heard something..."
Without thinking much he suddenly ran towards the huge gate that stood before him.
The same as others, he entered the gate to seeks treasures and fame.
He even disregarded the warning that he had just received. He just kept on running until he had entered the gate.
As soon as he entered, the gate suddenly closed with a loud sound.
'DUM'
Jay turned back and looked at the closed door.
"What the...? Why did it close?"
All other hunters also turned back and glanced at the huge door which was now closed.
They all had one question in their mind - "Why did the door close suddenly?"
While they were thinking this, a sudden noise made them wary.
"Kekeke kekeke..."
It was as if someone was laughing at the hunters. In fact it felt as if this laughter had some weird power which was sucking out the energy of the hunters.
The hunters who had entered were not just mere humans or noobs, they too had faced hardships and had plenty of experience.
They could easily say that they were all baited here. They immediately understood that this was a trap!
"What the f*ck! This is..."
"No... I don't want to die here..."
"This is weird..."
There were all voices mixed and all the hunters were now trembling as all they could see was darkness.
It was completely dark and they couldn't even see each other due to that.
"No way... how... how is this possible?"
Jay suddenly smiled in a weird manner as he thought this. He was completely shocked and puzzled.
"How can a dream... become reality?"
He continued to smirk.
"It's same as the dream that I had 4 days ago... everything... it is all same!"
He now realized that why he felt the gate to be familiar. It was because he had already seen the gate in his dreams.
"Kekeke kekeke" *evil laughter*
"BOW!"
And as soon as the hunters heard the word 'BOW', they all suddenly kneeled. It was as if the pressure above them had increased tremendously.
All of them were bowing and trembling at the same time.
"Dammit... how dare you make me bow..." Kim shouted while he was trying to move against the pressure.
Kim was trying to resist the pressure. He was clenching his fists and trying to get up. But the pressure was huge. And because he was acting against that pressure, some of his bones cracked.
"Aaagghhhh...!!!!"
Everyone could hear his voice loud and clear. In fact after hearing his voice, everyone was engulfed with fear.
They understood that it was futile to resist against the pressure and hence stopped trying.
"I... I don't wanna die... *sob sob* I want to see brother again..."
Mia Eyle, a C-Rank Hunter, is just 17 years old and is kind and hard worker.
She didn't want to be an hunter but was forced to since she had to help her brother as they were from a poor background. She wasn't good at other jobs either and hence the only option left to her was hunting!
Mia Eyle has a special ability called Gravity Control! That power can be used to either increase the pressure (gravity) or decrease it.
So she used it on herself and the pressure did decrease but it was still of no use. All she could do is turn her head now thanks to her ability.
And due to that she turned her head to only find that all were bowing and trembling except one man.
