Sterling growled as she walked. Grumbling to herself how her cousin wasn't at all what she expected. He was like her parents too bossy, too know it all. Too... she growled as her thoughts failed to find the words needed.
She walked at the edge of the light. She wished Nox would just give it to her so she could do it. But no he was making it trail behind them - what little good that did for their vision.
The noise from the walls got louder and Sterling almost went back to join the two men holding hand. She wanted to take comfort in that. It was a lot scarier down here. Nox corrected her navigational skills. She really didn't know where she was going, but it was getting darker and she slowed down, she would heed his words to stay closer. Her heart was racing in her chest. Her hands were sweating. This was a whole lot scarier than she could have ever imagined. But Nox, when she looked back at him he looked calm, at peace maybe? Is this really what he did for a living? Who would choose this life?
