Chapter 201: Bit by bit
When Nessa finished her meal, she stood up, and the others watched as she sighed and looked at the walls, passing her hand over each part, trying to find an opening.
Isamu and Terou then approached her and she glanced at them with a gentle smile on her face and Terou braced his head against her feet and she looked at him as he jumped up and she caught him in her arms.
"What's the matter?" Sophia asked as Terou began sniffing the wall along with Isamy while the others looked on, wondering what they were up to.
"Uh... Nessa why are they doing that? Can they find the opening?" Ian asked and Nessa shrugged.
"I don't know, but maybe, there is no harm in trying at least," She responded.
"You are right, there isn't," Niva said and Nessa saw Isamu's eyes started glowing blue and Nessa crouched down before him.
"What's the matter?" She asked and he braced his head against hers and she smiled.
"I don't like what I am sensing," He mumbled and her eyes narrowed, then he raised off of her and Terou jumped out of her hand and began growling at the wall and the others looked at each other before looking at them, wondering what was going on with the two.
"Nessa, are they okay?" Yonja asked.
"No, I think they are sensing either something within the wall or behind it, but they don't like whatever it is, you guys remember that scary roar from earlier, don't you?" She asked.
"Yes, we do," Ian responded.
"We have not met the beast that made that roar as yet, I have a bad feeling about what's to come next, if it's as powerful as its roar, then we are going to have a problem on our hands, we cannot afford this place falling apart before we get what we came for," She said and they sighed.
"Well, this is our job, guys," Ian replied and Yonja exhaled deeply before placing his hand on Sophia's shoulder and she glanced at him before smiling.
"Easily remove the parts with this part of the wall, there has to be something that will open an entrance for us to go in," She responded.
"Maybe, just be careful, I know we have to get what we came for but I have no intention of going back home without a member," Yonja said.
"Same here, I am not going home without a member, we are all going back together, no one is going to die here, get left behind, the money is not as important as a life," Ian replied and Nessa smiled at them.
"That's good to hear coming from you guys, at least now you can see that the two of you are not that different from each other," Nessa said.
"Which two?" Niva asked.
"Can't tell who I am talking about Niva?" She asked as Niva's eyes narrowed, then she looked at Yonja and Ian.
"Us?" Both of them asked.
"Yes, I am not talking about anyone else because the rest of us gets along just fine, you two fight like husband and wife to be honest," She responded and the others burst out laughing and Ian lowered his head and Yonja exhaled deeply.
"Very funny, this is how leaders should be," Yonja said.
"Acting like husband or wife with the other?" Nessa asked and Sophia couldn't stop laughing while holding onto Yonja's shoulder and he glanced at her.
"She got you guys good," Sophia said and Yonja and Ian exhaled deeply before smiling and looking at Nessa who grinned.
"Do you require assistance?" Yonja inquired as the wall cracked and broke apart due to the small amount of energy Nessa was releasing because she didn't want to damage anything since she didn't know what was within the wall.
"Nope, I will handle it, I just have to break it apart bit by bit, just in case," She responded and they smiled, then she exhaled deeply and pressed deeper against the wall.
