03 New World

fortunately as minutes pass by none of the Ethan worries come to pass soon it was time to watch the eclipse that Reza keeps talking about so they put on climbing clothing and about to get out of the cave.

Reza was disappointed they didn't go to a spa but it was understandable they were tired but that's okay it's not like the pond was going anywhere they could try it after watching eclipse.

when they came out of the cave they witnessed a scene none of them expected there were dark clouds covering the whole sky like it was going to snow any minute but that was impossible because there were no signs of clouds just 2 hours ago.

Reza;" well ,there goes our eclipse, I brought special sunglasses and the telescope for this"

Elena;"I'm sorry honey, I know you were looking forward to watching it , we should go back to the cave before it starts snowing"putting a hand on Reza shoulder.

Ethan;"why were we not notified about this?"

Elena;" I checked the tablet 2 hours ago and there wasn't any information about a storm for days"

Ethan;"where is the tablet now? it should notify us the moment there was a possibility of the storm or at least it could tell us how long it can last"

Elena:"in Reza's backpack inside the cave, the cave walls must have blocked the satellite signal"

Reza:"what is done is done it doesn't matter now, Elena is right we should go back to the cave before the storm starts... wait it's raining!!!"

Ethan;"I thought you said in this attitude only it snows why the hell is it raining?"

Reza;"I don't know, let's go before we get wet, it shouldn't last a few hours".

so they followed reza in the cave again each of them sitting in silence listening to the sound of rain and lighting, they were all worried that the storm would last a few days, they didn't have the rationale for days only one night.

fortunately the cave temperature didn't go down despite the storm outside.

Ethan stands up and goes for Reza's backpack earning a curious look for others, taking out the tablet and looking for a signal by checking different parts of the cave.

the reason Ethan didn't go outside the cave for getting a signal is because the storm is getting more furious by seconds that goes without saying waving a tablet in your hand in high altitude middle of the storm is not the best option.

meanwhile Rose is clinging to Elena's arm to lessen the stress she's feeling, the sound of thunder and rain didn't help much.

Elena is trying to comfort her sister by saying they will be fine and the storm will be finished in a few hours but her thoughts were different ,she hopes that what was she was saying come to pass if not they are stranded in this cave until the search and rescue come which is unlikely in this weather.

Reza on the other hand  was preparing for the worse trying to figure out a way that they could survive here for days he was feeling guilty for dragging them in this mess but he knew feeling guilty wasn't going to solve anything, the food was going to last them 2 days if they Ration It properly as for water that wasn't going to be problem there, thanks to wonderful pond in this cave.

thinking about the pond he glimpse at what he sees makes every Hair on his body straight, the pond water is rising in alarming speed,if the water keeps rising up, they have no choice to go outside the cave and going out this weather is just suicide.

Reza;"come on guys pack up everything we are going to sit at the cave exit."

seeing Reza shouted like that everyone's attention goes to the place is looking at, the pond.

they became frightened and packed everything in a hurry coming to the cave exit and kept watching as the water rose up and praying to God that it would stop.

just as all attention is the level of water a blinding light

covers the whole cave and the sound of lighting and something breaking reaches their ears.

 looking up Ethan sees the crystal on the ceiling is broken and a wave of unknown white energy is traveling in the water of the cave as if they are wire of an old lamp illuminating the place before he could alter a word to others he loses his consciousness.

if one could see at northern Zagreus mountain at that moment they would think they are mad because a piece of mountain just disappeared leaving a circular shape in the heart of it looking as it was cut with Lazer.

meanwhile in the middle of the Avlang Forest on a volcano edge a cave materialized in existence.

It goes unnoticed by inhabitants maybe because the rain or maybe because materialization itself didn't make any noise or vibration it just happened as if it was always there.

inside the cave 4 individuals were passed out in the ground as the crystal on the ceiling it starts losing color and turns pitch Black the water under cave ground disappearing in the small hole beneath the pond little by little.
