Beyblade Fan Fiction ❯ Together ❯ Nearly there ( Chapter 8 )

Her back was facing the entrance to hell. She faintly remembered passing through a gate when she had first arrived here. She looked everywhere around her, but there was no gate to be seen.

-damn, this place must be way bigger than I thought if I can't see an exit from here- maybe if she kept going forward she would get to it eventually? So that is what she did. She started walking and was on her way.

After 15 minutes or so she saw something shining in the first rays of sunlight. As she got closer she started to recognize the shape of the big iron fence that surrounded the area. She reckoned it would take her another five minutes or so before she could actually pass through it.

­-finally, I thought this driveway would never come to an end. -When she was out on the street shehad no idea where she had to go next. There where no signs that showed the directions to the airport so she had to face that she was lost if there was no one there to give her directions. - Geese, you could find every new piece of technology in that place. But a simple map of the city is unknown there.-

Lucky for her an elderly lady happened to walk by "are you all right dear? You look a little lost. Can I help you?" Paris smiled sincerely. "Gee, thanks miss, I was wondering where the airport is, you don't happen to know which way it is?" "Of course my dear. You go straight from here, you walk for about half an hour and then you'll see a small forest. You turn left at the forest. You keep on walking until you have arrived at a big park. You can spare your legs a lot of miles if you go straight through it instead of going round. After you've exited the park, the airport is only a few miles to your left. Don't hesitate to ask for directions again if you have forgotten dear."

Paris memorized the directions with her eyes closed. When she opened them to thank the women she found that she was gone. She looked around in every direction but the woman seemed to have vanished into thin air. -Wow she must walk pretty fast-and Paris was of again. But after an hour and a half there still wasn't a forest in sight. -she must have reckoned I walk as fast a she does. I just hope it isn't to far anymore, because I could use a breather.- she decided that if she wouldn't see the forest in an other half an hour she would go to the nearest café and ask for the right directions.

It seemed to have a great timing because after exactly half an hour she had arrived at the edge of the forest. To the left and not far from where she was standing there was a small bench. ­-finally, I almost thought my legs where going to give out on me before I got a rest. Hey, isn't that the park over there? Dude, she wasn't over exaggerating when she said it was big. From what I can see, I'm going to get there a little in the afternoon. -She sat her ass onto the bench and started rummaging trough her bag. She pulled out a couple of sandwiches and started her lunch. Luckily she had prepared, she could hold out for at least a week without having to buy neither food nor water.

She got to the park quite easily. And while she went through it she inhaled the wonderful smell of the flowers and trees. She had been in that building for to long. To long had she been locked up, surrounded by machines and technology. She came from Asia, a tribe that was surrounded by nature. This was where she belonged. Between the trees and the animals. Her spirit was livened up a lot. Her energy was renewed and she was out of the park in no time. She could already see the planes on the ground.

-Almost there. Let's just hope I can get a ticket to Belgium on a plane that leaves today. I haven't got any spare money to rent a hotel here. -So she went through the doors of the airport and began her new quest to find the information desk in the maze of sings.
