Chapter 2441 "It Will Be Your Turn Soon"
The reason why nightmares are always frightening is because once you fall into them, you never know when you will wake up.
Speaking of which, the days when Tia was trapped in it were actually not too long. However, after the extreme beauty was suddenly torn apart, the swarming darkness, even if she recalled it ten years later, the faded and yellowed memories still terrified her.
"...It was a very large basement, which was divided into many cells with thick brick walls and iron grille doors. It was very dark there, and there was almost no light at ordinary times, and it was impossible to see from the door. Not sure what. But I could hear a lot of breathing and moaning in pain—a lot of people, like me, were locked up there."
...
Perhaps it was because the number of cells was still sufficient, and Tia, who had calmed down a little bit, carefully probed around in the cell in the dark, and soon determined that at least there was no one else in that cell except herself. What kind of people who don't know the details.
Being in solitary confinement might be more disturbing, but it's not necessarily a bad thing if you think about it from another angle. At least Tia, who hadn't received much kindness from others since she was a child, felt that even in such a situation, the people in the same cell as her were not necessarily her companions.
"If it's Alisa, or that kind Miss Britt, then it should be fine... right?"
Tia, who hugged her knees in a corner of the cell and curled up into a ball, suddenly remembered the two people who were chatting stories with her before falling asleep, and then looked at the situation in front of her, and couldn't help hesitating for a while. for a moment.
But soon, she shook her head vigorously in the dark, and shook off some thoughts that flashed through her mind.
"By the way, where is Alisa now? Is she also locked up somewhere?"
Because there was nothing to do, and she didn't dare to speak out when she didn't know anything, Tia could only shrink in a corner and think wildly by herself.
It was indeed dark in the cell, it could be said that she couldn't see her fingers, but compared to the fear of violence and reprimand and insults, she was less afraid of this simple darkness. You know, in the orphanage in the past, in order to avoid the bullying, she often took the initiative to go to places that others couldn't see clearly. For her, the darkness might actually be a kind of protection that can bring her a sense of security.
However, just when Tia's thoughts were wandering, and she began to think about how she was unknowingly captured here from the monastery dormitory full of beauty, there was a scream of incomparable panic Suddenly, a sound came from a certain direction outside the cell, severely interrupting her reverie.
"Who? What's the matter?"
Tia still didn't dare to speak out, but habitually covered her mouth and nose. Then she realized that the exclamation, which seemed to be not close, stopped abruptly after one sound. What is the current situation of the owner of the voice... Although everything is still unknown, it will not be a good thing after all.
"Is it...a girl...?"
To be honest, in fact, at her age, it is not easy to tell whether a child is male or female just by the voice. What's more, in such a quiet environment, that scream came too suddenly, and in retrospect now, it didn't leave much reliable impression in my mind.
Tia was thinking about this, but suddenly heard a sound of footsteps coming from far and near outside, which made her even more afraid to be distracted by thinking about what was there.
Someone is approaching! More than one person. Moreover, one of them seemed to be dragging something, and there was an obvious rustling sound between the footsteps...
Then, for the first time since waking up in the dark until now, Tia finally saw the light.
It's a pity that that doesn't represent the light of hope. If possible, Tia hopes that this place will remain dark forever.
The next moment, before the sound of footsteps came to the door of her cell, Tia quickly lowered her head and buried her face between her knees. Only through the messy hair covering her eyes, she secretly looked at the approaching light outside the iron gate.
"Tap, tap, tap, tap..."
"Chi-Chi-Chi-Chi-Chi-"
Not long after, a group of yellowish and dim light first floated faintly from one side of the iron fence, and then two figures, one tall and one short, walked slowly through the corridor outside the fence.
The short man was walking in front, because the brightness of the light ball was not high, and Tia, who covered most of her vision with her bangs, couldn't see much at all. She didn't see the specific appearance of the other party. But there was one thing Tia noticed right away, the man's hand...
"Is that... a wand? A wizard?"
Although she was guided by John more than a year ago, Tia has been studying in Ilvermorny for a year. But in fact, she hadn't been able to integrate into it in the past, but she didn't learn much in this year, and she didn't even really get used to the standard equipment of every wizard - the wand.
At this moment, when she realized that the other party was actually holding a magic wand, she finally came to her senses, as if... she was already a little witch?
Tia, who still didn't have much sense of reality, lightly clenched her little hand, regretting it for the first time. Since I have a rare talent to be a wizard, why don't I take it seriously? I remember that the professor of the Defense Against the Dark Arts class seemed to have said in the first class that it is a habit that a qualified wizard should have to keep his wand with him at all times, because it might be able to use it wherever he goes. Save your life in case of accident.
"Where's the wand... in the trunk?"
Just when Tia couldn't help but began to regret secretly, the next scene that caught her eyes completely washed away all her emotions, replaced by deep fear.
She saw a third figure passing by the door, and what looked like a broken doll dragged by the other person's hand.
"Well."
Tia tried her best not to make any noise, but at the moment she witnessed the picture, her breathing couldn't help but become heavier.
It was very quiet in the dungeon, even if there was only a little breathing, it was enough for the other party to hear. At that moment, Tia clearly saw that the figure stopped at the moment when it was about to pass the door. Then, a harsh and hoarse voice sounded——
"Don't worry, honey... it will be your turn soon."
