《The Lowly Gate’s Guard》To Waterloo Station (3)

"We're going in here." Sam said to the other two.
He stood in front of a hole that was around ten feet in diameter. It went straight down, the bottom reaching around sixty foot. The hole was connected into the London underground. The railway at the bottom could only be seen by the light shining from above.
"How's Mary going to get down there?" Dean asked. Both him and Mary looked down the hole. The sides would be hard to climb down, and if they fell, they wouldn't land unscathed.
Sam stepped behind them both. Dean and Mary were still looking into the hole. Sam then put a palm on both of their backs and pushed them in.
Mary screamed. Tabby's eyes went wide, her fur sticking on ends.
"You dick!" Dean shouted.
[Sam has used Feather Fall Lv3]
[An angel slows your descent]
Sam jumped into the hole soon after they get pushed. Their descent slowed as if gravity was weakened. They were lucky to have landed on the floor on their feet.
"You could have told us, you dick." Dean went to hit him, but Sam easily caught his fist and pushed him away.
"Didn't feel like it. Here."
A blue light shined in front of Dean. A torch appeared from the light, landing in Sam's hand, he then threw it to Dean.
"Are you alright Mary?" Sam asked her.
"Yes Sam." She pulled out a cat treat from her pocket and held it out for Tabby. The chubby cat took it from her hand with her mouth, the treat calmed her down. She began to purr as she joyfully eat the snack.
"You're a dick."
Sam pulled out his sword and held the tip against Dean's neck.
"You've been pissing me off Dean, why shouldn't I just shut you up and cut your throat here?"
[Gallantry Lv1 Activated]
[Your mind has prepared for battle; your courage has increased]
Dean looked into Sam's eyes, the courage from the skill kept his fear at bay.
"Do it."
"Sam, please." Mary said, her voice was sweet and full of plea.
Sam put away his sword and exhaled. Summoning another flashlight, it lands in Sam’s hand and then he flicked it on.
"Keep up."
Sam walked down the dark tunnel, the flashlight in his hand lit the tunnel ahead of him.
"Prick."

Dean glared at Sam's back as he walked further away.
[Activating Sage's Eyes Lv1]
[Collecting Information]
[Sage's Eyes blocked]
'What the hell, Sage's eyes can get blocked?' he thought. Sam turned to Dean. "Try that again and you'll wish I cut your throat earlier."
Mary went to Dean "He may be a little rough around the edges, but Sam has saved my life more times than once. I wouldn't be alive if he wasn't here."
"Still a prick though." His anger not cooling from how rash Sam had been.
Mary exhaled, she knew no matter what she said, it wouldn't fix Dean's sour mood.
...
After hours of walking through the underground railway, not much had happened for the group. The same tunnel just repeated itself, not showing any signs of life.
"How long do we have left?" Dean asked Sam, who was further ahead and leading the group.
"Keep walking."
Dean was tired from the hours of walking, and Mary looked as if she couldn't go on much longer. They had no way to see outside, but they were sure it was dark by now.
"Mary needs to rest. Look at her."
Sam looked back at Mary, her complexion was pale. Her breathing was heavy. Her old bones needed to rest, someone of her age couldn't keep up with their young bodies.
"...Alright, we're resting here."
They decided to rest in the tunnel. Sam shined the torch light on an abandoned train that was not far off from the group. It was empty, the sides were covered in scratches, and the doors looked as if they had been pried open from the outside. The inside of the train windows was covered in dried blood, it looked old. No smell came from the train. You would expect a rotting smell, but the train was empty and had no corpses left behind. Dean couldn't decide if that was a good thing or not.
Sam told the group that it was better to stay outside on the platform, as they could keep a watch on both ends. The torches got placed together facing each end of the tunnel, they lit up the general area for the group.
Mary found a spot to rest, unbuckling the baby carrier from her back and letting Tabby out. The cat stretched her stubby legs as she let out a short yawn. Mary sat down and took out the pack of cat snacks from her pocket and fed them to Tabby. The cat moved to her lap and laid down, purring as it fell asleep.

Dean placed his hands on his hips at the sight of the spoiled cat. That cat still got treated like a Queen even now.
Dean's belly rumbled; the hours of walking made him hungry.
Sam opened his Contestant Store, but to the rest it seemed as if he was looking into the air. He made some motions with his finger. A blue light appeared in front of him and then multiple things appeared from out of the light. A portable stove, a frying pan, a small bottle of oil, a pack of sausages and a loaf of bread dropped to the ground slowly. All of them lightly thudded as they landed.
"Oh good, I'm starving!" Dean said, his appetite built from the sight of food. He approached Sam and the feast. Sam poured oil into the pan on the lit stove, the pan heated up from the fire.
"Buy your own, you have points." Sam didn’t even pay Dean any attention and continued cooking.
Sam then placed the sausages onto the frying pan, each sizzling as they hit the hot, oil coated metal.
"Jerk."
Dean leaved Sam to finish cooking his food and went to sit next to Mary. He opened his own Contestant Store.
[Opening Contestant Store]
Dean clicked on the symbol for items. Various groups of common items appeared on the window; one was labelled food.
Dean pressed the icon for the group. The window changed to show a large collection of different food, from hotdogs to chewing gum. All of them had a symbol of a lock over them.
"What the hell?"
Dean pressed one of the locked foods. Another window appeared up as soon as he pressed it.
[Locked]
[Please rank up your Channel level to upgrade your Contestant Store]
He ignored the notification and continued to press it repeatedly. The window warning repeated appeared as he continued to press the locked image.
"What the hell can I buy then?"
Dean swiped through the locked foods for a couple of minutes until an image of a small brown ball appeared. The only food that wasn't locked from the many selections he passed. A description below the ball said 'For ten points only! A multivitamin ball that will fill you up after one bite. Buy now while stocks last." Dean exhaled and clicked the image of the brown ball.
[Consuming ten points]
A blue light flashed in front of him, the same ball appearing from a blue light. Dean plucked it from the air and inspected it, the ball was tiny and smooth. Small enough to fit into his palm.
[Sage's Eyes Lv1 activated]
[Collecting Information]
[Information collected]
Name: Small Multivitamin Ball
Description: A small magic multivitamin ball that will expand and fill the consumers’ belly. Caution, only eat one every eight hours or risk of death. Does not taste good.
Dean shrugged after reading the information of the ball, it was the only thing he had to eat. He threw the ball into his mouth and swallowed. The taste was a horrendously bitter, herbal kind; Dean coughed as he swallowed the dry ball. The ball hit his stomach, a warm sensation came from it, the hunger vanished from his body.
"Tastes disgusting doesn't it? I remember when I first tried it." Mary laughed as she stroked sleeping Tabby on her lap.
"Don't have too many though. A man had ten of them and..."
"Don't worry Mary, I'll be careful."
Dean looked over to Sam as he bite the sausage sandwich he made.
"Have you been okay with him?" Dean asked her as he pointed his thumb to Sam.
"Yes Dear, I've been alright. It's been rough... but he has protected me."
"I'm surprised Tabby's still alive."
The cat purred, asleep on Mary's lap. Mary laughed, "She's the toughest cat I know, and I'm sure she'll still be alive if we all die."
"Maybe she'll be England's new Queen if anything goes back to normal." They both laughed.
"It's good to see you again Dean."
"You too, Mary."
Mary started to drift off. Sam kept a watchful eye over the area as he was finishing his meal. Dean stayed awake; he couldn't sleep from the crazy day he has had so far.
As time passed further into the night, jet black centipedes the same size as large dogs silently gathered in the darkness of the underground railway shadows. The group was lit in the distance. They watched the group from afar; rubbing their pincers together, salivating at the meals that laid within the light.
