The Catacombs, Tartarus - Saturday

Jun 21, 2008 20:28

Each person brought to the catacombs found themselves trapped in a cavern with seemingly no exit. It was cold and lighting was limited and even their own breathing would echo off the walls. The Nightmares were lurking, waiting for fresh minds to taste, to inhale the scent of fear and panic ( Read more... )

Isabel was grateful the demon had left her alone. Until she looked around the dank cavern.

"I've got a bad feeling about this."

Despite nothing happening, that bad feeling didn't go away. After spending what felt like hours pacing around the small chamber, Isabel finally sat down with her back to the wall, still keeping a wary eye out for any sort of threat.

But there was only so long she could stay awake and she eventually fell asleep.

Then the nightmares began…

Geoffrey opened his eyes and wondered why his head was pounding when he knew he hadn't been to a bar for a couple of--

"The 'fuck is this?"

In the middle of the room, Geoffrey stands.

He doesn't move.

He doesn't cry out.

He simply stares as his soul, and his sanity, begin to curl up to die.

Coming to, the first though Temari had was... They were dumb to have kept her alive. She woulda finished the job.

And then she opened her eyes to look around.

"...damn it." She had no idea where she was.

It wasn't long after that she started to hear noises. And then the nightmares started.

She was not having a good day at all.

Really, as far as dark and foreboding Underworlds went, Adah was thinking that, for the most part, this wasn't so bad. Of course, she had only arrived and she was still feeling all too much of the pain from being harassed by two...things (she still refused to refer to them particularly as demons) and the resulting misfiring of synapses in her brain that kept the dull pain and annoying twitches going for a good, long time. They'd pass, though. They'd pass. They always did, and then she could think, she could focus, she could maybe figure something out.

It wouldn't be the first time she'd been brought back from the dark underbelly of death...

It wasn't so bad. At first. Unfortunately, the dreams that she didn't know where dreams started as soon as Adah's pain ceased. Repeating in perfect, continuous loop, the ants kept marching, marching two by two.

Adah was a quiet girl, and she had been all her life. The screams that came out of her as she twitched and squirmed and wept in the suffering of her invisible menace, one would think she was making up for all that silence. She couldn't get them off, though, couldn't get them...and when she did, it was only to save one panic for another.

Dean had a hell of a headache when he came to and it took him a few minutes to get himself close to upright. When he did, he took stock; he was in a dark cave who knows where, and all of his weapons were gone. Worse, so was his brother.

But the lighting wasn't the best and he couldn't see all the edges of the place; maybe Sam was just not in view. Gathering his strength, he yelled out, "SAMMY!"

The only thing that answered him was his own voice echoing weirdly off the walls.

ME ME Me me...

When the nightmares came, they left Dean screaming and curled up in a ball of misery.
