《The Land of the Unknown》Episode 4 (Part 1)

Tommy gasped as he reached the surface in exasperation.

“It seems I haven’t found her yet...” He muttered to himself and rubbed his eyes that had gotten filled with bits of water.

When Tommy re-opened them, he realized he wasn’t in the same location anymore. It looked to be some cave with purple, glittery solid walls and the smooth white ground beside the waters. Tommy looked around as he tried to find some footing to get out of the water. As he wondered how to get out of the mess he got himself in, a voice broke his train of thought.

“Whoa...”

Tommy turned around and found Maggie out of the water, recording parts of the area with her waterproof camera.

“Maggie?”

“Huh?” She turned around and noticed Tommy in the water. “What are you doing here?”

“How’d you get here?”

“Hey, I asked you first. Although, I have no idea...”

“Well, at least I found you. I’ll tell everyone else where you are.”

“No, wait!”

Tommy couldn’t hear her, as he had already dived into the water to swim downward. Moments later, he rose back up to the surface, exhaling.

“Hey, you guys, you won’t believe what I just — wait, what?” Tommy looked around in confusion over him, not changing locations at all. But how? And why?

“I already tried that, didn’t work for me...” Maggie responded with a shrug.

“Aw, man, that sucks.” Tommy groaned, smacking the water. “What do we do now?”

“We got no other choice. We need to find a way out of here.”

“You don’t have to tell me twice.”

Maggie walked over to the sides and extended her hand, pulling up Tommy out of the waters as the two stood in the middle of the whole area.

The two spotted some hills that led up to some paths and headed up to some pathways. As they hiked up, they noticed some sturdy and thin walkways fell through to the ground, not leaving much room for exploration.

Tommy nearly lost his footing, but picked himself back up and accidentally bumped into Maggie, which propelled her forward. She glared at him for a bit before continuing to walk off.

While it didn’t look long from afar, it felt like they were walking for an eternity. Searching for a way out seemed to take and feel longer than Tommy expected. His legs got numb and tired of trying the many paths viewable to their eyes. The area wasn’t bright either, but it wasn’t entirely dark the further they went. Maggie didn’t seem to have any problems, but Tommy didn’t feel like he could take it anymore.

“Why does it have to be so hard and long to walk around?” Tommy whined, feeling like he’ll pass out from exhaustion.

“Because it is? What do you expect?” Maggie questioned, without looking at him.

“Well, I just wish that there’s some light to show that we’re on the right track, not to mention, make it easier for us to see.”

Just as he finished that sentence, at the corner of his eyes, he noticed a magenta light shining off from nearby.

“Where did that come from?” Maggie pointed out.

“Maybe that could be a way out?” Tommy guessed.

“How did we miss that...?”

“Let’s follow it and see what happens.”
