Chapter 35: Under The Sword Cave (Part 2)
I was now going with John down the sword cave, the tunnel we went through was quite dark so we had to turn on our flashlights all the time.
We just had started our journey down here not long, just a few minutes ago so we didn't go far yet.
"Sarah! You point your flashlight around for me, I want to see the entire area we are standing." - John ordered me, the road we were standing on seemed a bit wider than the previous one so he wanted me to check
Then I pointed my flashlight around the area, when moving the light around, I saw the route led forward and about 6 tunnels that led to the different routes on the right side and the left side.
I was now wondering where should we go next.
"Sarah! You go to the second tunnel on the left side, I will go straight, if you see the tunnel you go is too deep, get back here immediately!" - John seemed like wanted me to split out
"Okay! Commander!"
Then John split up with me and went on his route, I immediately walked to the second tunnel, when I got there a little bit, I saw something that looked like a European sword that was stuck under the ground.
Not just that, I also saw something that looked like a book that was covered in dust, both of them seemed very old, the sword even blunted and rusted.
I stepped to the sword and picked it up, it was quite hard to pull it out when it stuck on the ground. When I pulled the sword up, its blade had broke in half, what a terrible rusted, I threw the sword away and headed to the book.
When I picked up the book, the entire book turned into dust, these things had stayed so long in this place so there was no surprise if they got decomposed when I touched them.
Then I stepped deeper into that tunnel, I saw a room, I went inside and saw a thing that looked like a machine placed on the left side of the room.
There was also a thing that looked like a work chair placed next to it, I looked around to see if there were more things to see, but seemed like there was just that machine and the chair.
I looked closer to the chair, it seemed very modern, very advanced, the chair looked like made of metal, I touched the chair.
Then my hand was full of dust because touching it, cannot imagine if there was an ancient civilization had existed under this sword cave.
Then I looked closer at the machine, it had a thing that looked like a big screen that appeared up the wall in front of it.
Both the screen and the machine were full of dust, I looked at what was under the machine, there were a lot of things that looked like buttons, switches hand grips.
Some languages written on the buttons and the switches but I cannot understand stand what they were written. Seemed like they were written in pictographs mixed with Latin but upside down.
I accidentally used both of my hands to sweep the dust away from the screen, yikes! How could I clean my hands now? Both of my hands were now dirty.
Then I pushed a button that I saw from the machine, nothing happened, I also pulled the handgrip next to the button down, also nothing happened.
Maybe I had wasted my time doing these things, that was all I saw from that tunnel, I may need to return now.
After returning, I saw that John hadn't come back yet, there were still more than 5 tunnels left for me to go, maybe I should go there for sure! Then I changed my target to the first tunnel on the left.
The first thing that appeared in front of me when I came into the room of that tunnel was a dead body of a scientist that was sitting on the ground.
That corpse seemed to be rotten for a long time, it even showed to the bones, I stepped closer to that corpse and saw that late scientist's nameplate, Viztor Horward.
His blouse had already been scratched a little bit, next to his corpse was also another corpse that stayed on the ground.
I looked closer to that corpse and noticed that was a woman scientist corpse with long-haired.
I also saw some marks on the corpse that looked like that woman had died because of being choked by someone, her nameplate named Kate Handerson.
There were also some bites on that scientist's neck, head and also her face, her skin had rotten and showed some bones.
But the way her body had been destroyed like that made me nervous, why did her face got bitten? Who made those bites?
Then I looked back at the corpse that I saw earlier when I got in, don't tell me! The scientist named Viztor had killed Kate and devoured her body because of his starvation when he got trapped inside the sword mountain?
Haah! Haah! My body felt unwell, I wanted to vomit! I had seen so many episodes of The Walking Dead, I had seen scenes where the walkers ate humans.
Even looked closer to the details they bitting, swallowing those people's bodies but never felt terrible like this time.
I saw that room was empty but I didn't care if that room had something or not, I immediately ran away from the room and turned back to my previous way. When I got outside, I completely felt better.
But that scene kept haunted me, but I tried to forget it, I saw the third tunnel to the left, should I go? I wondered, then I stepped inside it and went to another room.
This time was better than before, I just saw a machine inside the room like the second tunnel I went, I also tried to interact with it but seemed like it didn't respond, maybe I should go back now.
That haunting scene still following me, I used my right forearm to cover my mouth, preventing it from vomiting.
When I got out of that tunnel, I only saw three were three more tunnels on the right, maybe I should go through all of them.
"Sarah!" - I heard a voice come out from the straight line of the tunnel that John had gone when he split up with me, seemed like John had come back
"Sarah! Oh! What's wrong? Your face looks so pale!" - John seemed very surprised when he saw my face, he even pointed his flashlight close to me
"Commander! I, I just, saw something very bad! I saw two scientists' corpses that were trapped here in one of these tunnels, they had devoured each other!"
"Sigh! I just have found something when I'm gone, let me show you!" - John said to me then grabbed my right hand and told me to go with him though my hand was still dirty because of dust
Then I went with John a bit deeper into the tunnel that he went before, the road was straight for quite long. It took us about 10 minutes to go through it, the tunnel was very dark, it gave me shivers few times.
At the time I and he got out of the tunnel, I saw there was a very large lake that covered the entire tunnel. That tunnel was very wide now, but I saw there was no entrance to any tunnel near there.
I saw that the lake had water, the water that glowed in blue color filled the entire lake, which was very strange to me. I still wonder if that kind of water was drinkable or not.
My mind was still haunted by that scene again! I wanted to vomit now!
"Sarah! Hey, Sarah!" - John shouted to me when he saw I was about to vomit
"The sounds of vomiting!" - I cannot control myself but vomited in front of John but luckily that I didn't vomit on his clothes
Ahh! Ahh! After the vomit, I felt so exhausted, I cannot stand, I was so scared at the scene I saw in that room.
"Sarah!" - John shouted louder to me and pulled my body near to the lake
"Goddammit! Don't just scared like that! That scene is very normal to me when I went to war! Here! Here is some water, drink!" - John took some glowed water from that lake and put it in my mouth
This book's true home is on another platform. Check it out there for the real experience.
When I was still panicking, for some reason when I was drinking that kind of water, my mind started to feel relieved, my mind stopped imagine about the scene of the death of those two scientists anymore.
"Seem like you are calm, Sarah! When I was still nervous about the reason we got trapped in here, I found this water and drank it, my mind suddenly felt relieved after that." - John said to me, seemed like the thing that he found was something wonderful
"Commander! Is this the end of the sword cave?"
"I don't know yet, if this sword mountain is very deep down of the ocean then there is no reason its route down here will short like that, there must be some hidden routes." - Oh! Seemed like John's thought was right, I also agreed with him
"Then where is the next route?"
"Don't know, we will find it when we have time, at least we don't need to worry about the shortage of water anymore, this lake can even provide us water for months or years, we only shortage of rations." - Seemed like John was right again
"Just sleep, Sarah! There must be too late now, it's very near 1:00 AM, you sleep here, I will stay guard. We will find a way to get out of the sword cave when you get up!"
"When we find another way out, we will head back to Hatano's place and call her to join us too."
"You don't sleep, Commander?"
"My mom, Kaori, always taught me to stay up late when I was a kid, she always used the military training on me."
"I'm now very surprised, you know, Sarah? I still call her mom even though she and Amanda trapped us here!" - Seemed like John wanted to come back to his bad previous relationship with his first mom
I was so sleepy! But was it alright to leave John doing the guard?
"Commander!"
"What?" - John asked me
"Why don't we change our shifts?"
"Bah! Just sleep, Sarah! I don't want to be sliced by Hatano when she knows I force her little sister to wake up doing the guard!" - John said to me like that, but what was he meant
"I don't understand yet, Commander! What do you mean by being sliced by my sis?"
"Bah! Just sleep!" - John's face was very serious now, maybe I won't disturb him anymore
"Good night! Commander!" - I said to John, hoping he to have a good night then lay on the ground nearby to sleep
"Hey! I'm the one who has to wake up! What do you mean by hoping me a good night? And it is now morning, Sarah! Sigh! This dummy!" - I heard John say something to me but I didn't care and slept right away
Rigen's perspective
Sarah had gone to sleep and I was now sitting near her, what was wrong with this girl anyway? She just had slept at the time her head touched the ground, she slept so easily like that.
I had to do the guard for her, Sarah was sleeping very well, oh! I just smelt some good smells, where was that coming from? Oh! Sarah's hair?
I headed my nose closer to Sarah's hair, her ponytail hair made me want to...Maybe I should think about something else! But her hair seemed to smell very good, should I?
"Sniff! Sniff!" - Haah! What kind of shampoo that she used for her hair? It smelt very good
Maybe I should stop now! If Sarah caught me, she would call me a pervert for doing this harassment
I was very sleepy right now! My eyes were now one open one close, I couldn't even stay focused on doing the guard. Maybe I need to clean my face with that kind of water again.
Then I stepped to the lake and took some water and some of them to my face, I didn't want to lose my concentration for doing the guard.
Strangely that the earthquake occurred nearly an hour ago in the sword mountain had ended at the time three of us got inside the sword cave and got trapped inside.
But why I had splatted water on my face many times but I still got sleepy, maybe I should sleep! Maybe! Staying up too late was not good.
"Comma...der...is ther...something...wro...unde...( talkie interference ) - My talkie was called by someone
That must be Hatano, she seemed to be worried about Sarah and I when we just got here for so long, maybe I should call her back.
Though to communicate with the talkies here was very hard because of wave interference but seemed like it still worked a little bit, still have a chance.
"Commander calls Private Sarah! Our situation down here is still fine, Sarah is still okay, she is sleeping now."
"Hatano! I think you should also sleep a bit, you must be exhausted now, sleep! Sleep! Sleep! Sleep! Sleep! Sleep!" - I repeated the word sleep few times, I hoped Hatano would have a chance to hear me
Then I waited a few seconds to have the answer from the other side, then a voice responded.
"Roge...th...ro...t...roge...tha...Comma...Comma...der ( talkie interference ) - Seemed like Hatano had received my order
After calling for Hatano on my radio, I went back to guard for Sarah, at least trying a little bit! Then I noticed, Sarah's hands were now so dirty, they were covered in dust. Why I didn't notice at first.
"Okay, you brown-haired Princess, cleaning hands service is coming for you!" - I grabbed both of Sarah's hands and pulled her to the lake to wash her hands
Sarah's military bag had been removed when she went to sleep, I pulled her to the lake in a gentle pull, I didn't want her to wake up.
After washing Sarah's hands, I pulled her back again to where she was sleeping and kept guarding her.
My eyes were so sleepy right now! Let's quit the guard, maybe I will go to sleep.
I crawled closer to Sarah to sleep next to her, also wanted to have some warmth from her body.
I didn't have problems sleeping with guys, even women, I had used to it in the war I joined.
Just hope that I would wake up before Sarah or she would accuse me of doing the harassment.
In the worse situation, Hatano would be very mad when she knew her little sister was being harassed by me, I would be sliced in half for sure!
But anyway, I hoped I would wake up sooner than Sarah.
Sarah's perspective
I was sleeping, yeah! I was sleeping but suddenly I woke up, my breasts felt so tight for some reason, I looked at my watch, 4:16 AM! I had slept here for than three hours!
Where was John, he was doing the guard, right? He just dropped his duty to sleep or what? Or he abandoned me here to get back to my sis?
But I felt something very tight under my breasts, I also felt something very hard that pointed to my butt, I didn't care what was that hard thing under my butt.
Must be my rifle that stuck between my butt. But what was the thing that made my breasts tight?
I looked at my breasts, there were hands covering with military gloves holding them, those hands even squeezing my breasts few times.
I also felt that someone was behind me, behind my back, wait! If John dropped his guard duty then who was now lying next to me?
"Ahh!" - I immediately shoved the one who was laying next to me away when I suspected that was John
I saw him! that was definitely John! He seemed to wake up when he was shoved by me when he was sleeping. John was now standing up, he even holding his head, seemed like didn't know what he had done to me.
"You, you, you! You hentai! Hentai! Hentai!" (You, you, you! You pervert! Pervert!! Pervert) - I scolded John when he was staring at me, didn't know why I scolded him
"What's wrong, Sarah?" - John still behaved purely, you hentai!
"Your sin hands have just squeezed my boobs! You hentai! Wait! What is a long thing that appears down your crotch? Disgusting! Disgusting!"
John after hearing my words, he seemed to realize something. John immediately grabbed his bag then ran away from me while covering the thing that appeared down his crotch.
"Get back here, you hentai!" - I also grabbed my bag then ran after John
"I'm sorry! I didn't know!" - Ahh! After doing many things to my body but John could have the courage to say that!
"Get back here!"
I chased John, I was very confident at my speed so I kept up with John though he was also fast, at the time both of us ran to the lake and stepped on the water, something very strange happened.
The lake looked very deep but we managed to float on the water surface by our feet. John was surprised about it so I took that chance to keep up with him.
"Got you now, you hentai!"
"Forgive me, Sarah!" - John begged me for forgiveness, then say sorry to me at once, you hentai!
"Then say sorry to me at once, you hentai! Say it! Say it! Say it!" - I crushed John to the ground and began to crush his face with my breasts
"I knaw ma syn! Sara! I knaw ma syn! I em sorre! I'm sorre!"
( I know my sin, Sarah! I know my sin! I'm sorry! I'm sorry) - I heard John apologize to me while my breasts were still crushing his face, he did apologize but I didn't hear properly
"I don't hear! Say it again!"
"I'm sorree! I'm sorree! Ahh!" - Cannot hear anything but I was now noticed my boobs were crushing John's face so I removed them from him to hear him talk
"Sorry! My breasts just made you suffocate, John! Now say sorry to me!"
I saw John was trying to take his breath, his face was now a bit red because of getting suffocated by my breasts.
"I'm sorry! Sarah! I'm sorry! If I have something that makes you annoyed, you can order me to do for you one thing as a punishment!" - I just need sorry but John just had given me one wish
That thing was out of my expectation, let's see what I should choose.
"Then from now on, I will be your Commander, John! Remember to listen to me!"
"Okay, Sarah! No, I mean! Commander" - John had called me Commander, good! But why did I see him smile a little bit
"Why did you smile?"
"Ah! Because your bre-, I mean your generous, Commander!" - I felt something strange about what John said but I ignored it
Then I saw something, there was a thing that looked like a hidden tunnel, that thing was now in the middle. At the end of the lake, its entrance seemed quite small to me.
"John! Immediately get to the place where I point, I want to go inside there!" - I ordered John while pointing my right hand to that tunnel
"Right away, S-, Commander!"
Then I followed John to that area, its entrance was quite small so we had to throw our bags and rifles into that place first.
After doing that, John went inside there easily, then went to my turn.
"Argh!" - I tried to get my body inside the tunnel but seemed like my breast were so big so they made me hard to go in
"Need help?" - John asked me while staring at my breasts
"Say Commander in the last line, yeah! I need it, help me, just don't touch my breasts!"
Then John managed to pull me inside, but at the time I got in, I accidentally fell to the ground, John also fell with me.
Then I realized, John had lied on his back and my head had touched his crotch for some reason.
The thing that appeared in John's crotch earlier suddenly got hard and turned long again. I immediately stepped away from John, I felt that thing was so disgusting.
You hentai! Turn that long thing off!"
"Oh! Sorry, Commander!" - John said that to me and stood up, covering that thing, it took him a few minutes to turn it off
Then we grabbed our stuff and went on that tunnel, this time, we were going up, not down like previous, it was really strange for me, after we went up for a few steps, we saw a lot of scientist corpses.
Seemed like they had a fight here for their food "the human flesh", there were many bites everywhere on the bodies of those scientists.
Those things made me scared so I covered my head to John's chest.
"Okay! Okay! Commander, don't scare!" - John was now comforting me but why do I feel he touched some of his fingers to my breasts!
But I forgave John, just this time, just this time, this time! If he dares to do that again, I will tell my sis!
Then we kept getting up, a few minutes later, while on our way, we saw a corpse of a man that wore a bag on his back. Seemed like a traveling bag, that man was also wearing a military hat, seemed to be an officer.
We stopped at this man, then I noticed that man had died not long because his body had not been decomposed heavily like the other scientists.
After looking around that man's corpse a few times, then I looked down the ground.
I saw a book that looked like a diary, that may be from that man.
"John! Pick up that book for me, I want to know what is written inside."
Then John picked up that book and opened its pages, about to read for me what was written inside it.
I was so curious about that man's book, I wanted to know what was actually written on it.
