Day 5- Gummiship
Gummiship…. She doesn’t know what that is, but it’s a word that she’s heard. Those boys, the new ones, the living ones had used the word. They seemed concerned that they arrived here without the gummiship. Perhaps they’d find what they were looking for.
The young woman sighed, hoping that the other teens found their way soon. When she first awoke she hopefully assumed that Chirithy would soon arrive and when he didn’t… she thought that her party would. A search party from her union or the Dandelions. That maybe Aced himself would. Daydreams of a rescue that never came. She clutched the lantern, steps quickening back to the room she frequented. The manor had accepted them, sheltered them, where her Union failed to.
She paused in the dusty room, frowning at the still unmoving warm body that rested on the bed before her. Were her efforts to save them in vain? Their body did not change like hers did, rather than change to match their new world– they simply slept. She closed her eyes, slowly fading from the room as she hoped that her companion would wake soon. Perhaps they can join the travelers on their gummiship to leave this place.
