Life in the East (Season 5, Slugterra Fanfiction)

Chapter 4 - Close Escape

Unnecessary amounts of mentions of Blood and death in this chapter.

I can't believe I let so information out so easily, thank Kritanta that he didn't find out more. He is certainly going to come talk to me about it later, I wish he could just leave me alone.

These thoughts swarmed Alyssa angrily, tormenting her for nearly getting the secret escape. She was so bitter to herself she didn't notice the others behind her talking about what had just happened as she walked back into her old bedroom. Even with these thoughts swarming her, she still couldn't pin why she felt to off, as if she is forgetting something.

As she kept walking, she eventually got to the living room and sat down on one of the couches, but when she sat down, she just felt more off. Out of her rage, she made herself calm down after breathing in and out a few times, she felt a little calmer, still mad, but calmer.

"So are we not going to talk about what just happened?!" Trixie said breaking the silence.

"Yeah, what happened to you both?" Eli replied

"Ask away, to me it will be easier then going back to the start." Alyssa said.

"Why was that slug levitatin' in the air?" Kord asked.

"Its her ability." She answered

"What's her ability?" Eli said curiously.

"She can only use it on as many people as needed, the subconsciousness of people are merged and they share memories and can go through them to recover something they may have forgotten. If only one person then they can just look through their memories through their subconscious." She replied.

"What kind of slug is she and what's her name?"

"Really, a name? Out of all the questions you could've asked about Pronto, you chose that?" Pronto said in disgust.

"Her name is Misty, I named her Misty because when she uses her ability a pale white mist appears. As for what kind of slug she is, I don't know what kind of slug she is." She said ignoring Pronto.

"How did you find her then?" The red head said.

"I didn't find her, she was given to me as a child from my father. I never really bothered to ask him what kind of slug she is."

Junjie's eyes slightly widened and look shocked at the mentioning on Alyssa's father. She never talked about her parents.

"Cool, nice name!" Eli replied.

"Why is there a bunker under your old house?" Trixie chimed in.

"In preparation of a break in or emergency. Being a former protector can get a target on your back."

"Who is Kritanta?" Junjie said.

"Who?" All the other voices said in unison.

Shoot, I thought he forgot.

"S-she's a God! Yeah! A God from my old religion. I said it because its a habit." She hastily.

That was close, I'm not lying though. STOP LETTING OUT INFORMATION ALYSSA!!!

"Any other questions?" She said.

"Did you find out if he's a traitor or not?" An obvious voice said.

"I did, in fact he isn't a traitor, but it will take time for the caverns to forgive him, same goes for the rest of the rebels and myself. Especially Flower."

Chills ran through her spine imagining what her father's death would've looked like. Flashbacks of her in class filled her head."
