A dark void(3)

Paralyze with only his arm as the only support to move his body, is dexter waiting for another set of miracles to happen

With his body not far from dying as the cold shallow water create blue bruised and cut to his delicate yet brutally damage skin

"What now?"

Dexter sigh, staring in the huge hole above him, but it's not bigger than the anti ant he encountered and risk his life in running away from

It's just a *huge hole* from Dexter's perspective and compared to his small body frame the hole he has fallen through is indeed big

Only a figment of light can enter the darkness of the cave as the sun is already asleep, and the moon has woken up *its night time*

*grrrrrrrr!*

*Gaaaaawr!!*

The roar and the sound of the beast above the cave threatening each other and fighting it out to see who will survive the next day

'Can't they just be quite a disable person is trying to relax here'

Dexter heard the roar of the fierce beast above him as it echoed repeatedly inside the cave and headed directly to his ears

"What the,..... it just got louder isn't"

Dexter hold his ears tight as the sound keep banging in his ear

*graaaaawr!!*

The beast who has caught its prey has howl in delight as it survives another night and it's also a way to show their undying pride even though it's long been dead when they entered this place

While those who lose desperately grumble with their remaining breathe to show their pride and that they will fight until the end

The roar of the beast above continue while dexter desperately blocked the sound with his ears

'How can I sleep if those monsters will keep on doing this.....this is just annoying'

Dexter thought as the sound keep on repeating cause of the cave that is completely sealed except for the hole above him

The youngster has no reason to complain if it's just like the sound of the animals back on his word at least back there he can handle it like the barking dogs

But the beast here....dexter felt that the beast here is different from the animal from his world it's no exaggeration if he calls them a monster as he experiences the call of the anti ant making him completely paralyzed in his position

The howl of the beast above give shivers in his bone and his arm slowly drift away from his ears

His strength in his arm slowly fade away but dexter resist and as his arm leave his ear completely he found an amazing idea

But with his condition, it's close to suicide if he accidentally falls asleep that is

As he slowly let both his arms sleep, dexter lay down in the shallow water to cover his ears

The water starts to move in and out of his ears tickling the youngster

"hee!"

Dexter let out a sound as a small smile appear on his face

'damn, is this water playing with me?'

the thought when the water never stop tickling his ears,

but he can't get out from this uncomfortable experience except if he wants to hear the beast above him howling at each other, that will be different

His trick of letting his ear underwater can't be seen as a complete success as it never completely let the howl and roar of the beast above to stop

dexter didn't block the sound of the beast completely as a dense sound of howl appear in his ear every ticking second while his ear is underwater

The cold atmosphere of the middle night froze Dexter's body but not in a literal way

The cold of both air and water in the cave made him shiver in return

"achoo!!"

Dexter sneeze as the shallow water for some reason entered his nose

He unintentionally sat down as his nose felt extremely uncomfortable in his current position

Dexter wipe his nose and said

"What a bad water this is"

When his mind finally return with a shocked look he quickly covered his ears and closed his eyes

But the sound of the beast clashing unexpectedly didn't come

Dexter slowly remove one of his hand and it's the one with the flesh of the ear already cut off cause for some reason it didn't respond to sound very well

Dexter still doesn't trust his situation but the cold water said otherwise so he completely remove his arm just to hear.....nothing

not even a sound of a bird can be heard it's a complete dead night, and the moonlight has already leave making dexter blind unable to see anything in this dark cave

dexters lower body has already been immune to the cold or maybe it already died along with both his leg

Dexter touch his face feeling a tingle of pain in his skin

"ouch!, how do I like right now anyway?"

Dexter thought as he remembered that one of his legs has been cut off the other one is paralyzed one of his ears is also been cut and his body is covered in deep bruise and cut

"Maybe I look like a super cool dude right now"

Dexter said in a joking tone as his eyes slowly felt heavy

"yaaaaaaawn.....let's just think again tomorrow I need some rest"

Dexter muttered as he lay down like a log not feeling the cold in his back even though he willingly let his arm go earlier

like what's happening to his lower body which might possibly be out of its senses, dexter quietly lay down with half of his body deep in the shallow water, of course not his face included cause how can he breathe?

With his senses slowly disappearing he heard a loud noise similar to the beast he heard earlier but completely different

"groooooooooowl!!"

The sound echoed in the entire cave just like what the beast roar did

Dexter didn't think of it too much cause he already know what the sound is and it's his stomach

"Stop I don't have any food, just make a sound when I found one,...geez I'm sleeping here"

He whispered under his breath until he finally lost his consciousness
