《Tales of the Underground - The Game》Chapter 8
Advertisement
Like the others, Emilia Frye had escaped into one of the corridors. She had killed her light and remained as still as possible, while listening. Indeed there were sounds of unclear origin, far away.
But there was something else, somewhere near her. The muffled sound of something knocking against wood. Carefully Frye made a few steps into the direction from where she presumed the origin of that noise came. The sounds where getting louder and now she clearly heard how something or rather someone was knocking against the inside of one of the boxes.
"Hello?", she whispered. "Who's there?"
No answer. Maybe she was too far away. Perhaps the hammering was too loud. The person inside the medium sized box kept banging against it, trying to escape. Frye kneeled down next to the box and examined it. The lid was secured with a lock, but the
metal reinforcements looked worn out. Carefully she dug her fingers into the gap between box and lid. Then, in the same rhythm as the prisoner, she started pulling. The person inside seemed to have noticed her, because now he or she used more force.
Suddenly, with a loud noise, the lid sprang open and Anna Crissly fell out.
"Anna! What happened to you?", Frye whispered.
"I don't know. I just woke up in there. Are we dead?"
"Not yet. Let's go, we have to hide somewhere."
With as little light as possible, the two women followed another labyrinth, without any clear goal. But then by chance or fate they suddenly found themselves in front of another stuffed corpse, holding a key.
"Anna, watch your back. We don't want you to get kidnapped again."
"I don't see anything. Can we turn the light on?"
"No." Frye grabbed the key and turned to Crissly. "Let's get out of here."
Anna looked at her with a strange expression on her face. Then her eyes wandered to something behind Frye.
"Did...did that body just move?"

Body Modifier: Energy Required
Aria ate a fish. [Energy: 2] Finished, he ate another fish. [Energy: 2] ... [Energy: 3] Without realizing it, he had finished 5 fishes. He felt a little bloat, he lay down with a full stomach, occasionally burped. Even though he didn't want to be a big lump of meatball, he still had to keep eating. At least until he found another way to accumulate energy. After all, if he didn't take advantage of his advantages, wasn't that stupid? His mind then drifted imagining which one he would use the energy for. Should he use it on his eyes, so it shot a beam of laser, like a certain bespectacled mutant? Should he use it on his bones, so it regenerated infinitely, like a certain character from an anime? Should he use it on his brain, so he became a genius, like a scientist with a bald head? Or should he use it on his vital organ, so that he became the manliest person in the world? While he was imagining things, suddenly his ears felt pinched. "Ouch!" "Didn't mom already say you can't play with fire, you brat?!" There he realized, knowing that no matter what he chose, he was still a child in front of his mother.
