Chapter 240 I Liked My Legs
The puppy dog look on Liu Yu Zeng's face was enough to break my heart. "Nope, you know what? This is just like an escape room date like they had before the apocalypse," I said with a definitive nod. If that was what he wanted it to be, then that was what this creepy facility was. An escape room that we didn't sign a waiver for.
"So we agree that this is a date then?" he asked as his face morphed into a giant smile.
"Of course this is a date," I said, not too sure how we went from talking about a Ripper literally ripping legs off of people, to a giant hole in a wall, to a date, but I was sure that it all worked in Liu Yu Zeng's head.
"And if this is a date, does that mean I am going to get laid afterward?" Liu Yu Zeng asked his innocent smile that had me wrapped around his finger morphed into something much darker and more seductive.
"What?!?" I asked with a shake of my head. I mean, that was the last thing on my mind right now. "How about we get out of here first, meet up with your men, and then revisit that idea?" I continued. What I didn't notice was how close that fucker got me to the big dark hole in the wall.
"You really don't think I am going in there, right?" I asked him wide-eyed. There were no doors to prevent us from leaving the same way we entered, but if I hadn't mentioned the Ripper in the last 30 seconds; there was someone ripping people apart somewhere in this facility.
This locked down facility.
With me in it.
And they liked to rip legs off of things.
I liked my legs. I especially liked my legs attached to my body if I was given an option.
"You will be just fine, Sweetness," crooned Liu Yu Zeng as he stepped over the threshold between the hole and the rest of the kitchen. "Remember, you have a fire that can kill anyone or anything in seconds. You are the scariest person here. Who are you worried about?"
I blinked at him. Okay, so maybe I sometimes forget that I have my flames simply because I never used them in my past life. But I was supposed to not use the purple one on humans because it made me hungover and I didn't like it.
"How about this? You can hold onto me and I will kill anyone that comes within 100 feet of you," he continued with a smile and I looked at Liu Wei for confirmation. Seeing his smile, I took in a deep breath.
"Fine, I will go into the creepy hole in the wall, on this… date… with you, only because there is no way I want to be left behind. But next time anyone has the great idea to do something like this? Do us all a favor and don't."
I shook my hand out of Liu Yu Zeng's and took a deep breath. I was a badass bitch. I was a Queen. I could do this. I stepped onto the first step and continued my way down the stairs holding onto the railing and counting every step I took.
I wanted to be stronger, and this was how I did it. No one got strong by staying in the same place. I would face this completely reasonable fear and move on. And if necessary, I would kill everyone that jumped out and scared me.
I mean, as long as I didn't use my purple flame it should be good. Right?
----
Liu Yu Zeng looked at his brother with wide eyes. "Please tell me you have a plan," he grumbled. Sweetness and Chen Zi Han had just gone through the hole and were going to face only god knew what.
"I wish," said Liu Wei as he turned to look at Wang Chao. "If she gets so much as a hangnail here I will be blaming it on you and acting accordingly.+"
Wang Chao sighed and nodded his head. "Fair," he said as he walked towards the hole in the wall. "But if I didn't think we had to be here, I would be taking her out even if I had to blow the ceiling off. There is something here that we need."
"The only thing we need just went into a dark basement without us, so whatever is going to happen next, I hope it's worth it," said Liu Wei as he passed Wang Chao and started down the stairs and deeper into the darkness.
"I hope so too," said Wang Chao under his breath as he followed the man that had stood by him since he was 10. Liu Yu Zeng let out a low scoff and brought up the rear, two deadly blades hidden against his forearms.
-----
I had lost count after going down 51 stairs, but I was not going to go back to the top to start over again. Choosing a random step and making it number 1, I paused. I just realized that I had never heard Chen Zi Han yell 'All clear'. Did that mean that it wasn't clear? Was he in trouble?
Looking at my brand-new crystal, I focused on Chen Zi Han. His flame didn't so much as fluctuate within its confines. Confident that he was okay, I continued down the stairs. The worst thing I could do was stand on a step long enough for the other guys to bump into me. It was dark enough that they probably wouldn't be able to see me.
My mind immediately went to me rolling down the never-ending staircase. Which made me wonder if the railing was strong enough that I could slide down it like I used to do as a kid in one of my foster homes. It would get me down to the bottom a lot faster… not to mention it would be a lot more fun.
A big smile on my face, I realized that the banister was wide enough that my hand could barely grip it which meant that it was wide enough to act as a slide…
Swinging my left leg over, I gripped the railing with both hands and slowly relaxed my grip, allowing me to ride the banister like a witch on a broomstick.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
