The alarm rang.

[i]It was that day.[/i]

Lisa sat up, as she looked around.

[color=764820]”... Aw shit! Grab everything!”[/color] Lisa shouted. [color=764820]”Grab the bags! Grab the food! Grab the [b][i]dildos![/i][/b]”[/color] 

[color=e77fbf]"Which dildos?!"[/color] Ella shouted back, jumping out of bed and pulling open the drawer beside it… filled with a far too large assortment considering how little time they'd been alive. Not waiting for an answer, Ella stuffed [i]all[/i] of them into her massive, military-style tactical backpack. 

[color=764820]”Yes!”[/color] Lisa shouted.

[color=DC143C]"Get dressed first,"[/color] Saskia groaned, dragging themselves out of bed. [color=DC143C]"I packed everything important yesterday.”[/color]

[color=e77fbf]"But not the dildos!"[/color]

[color=DC143C]"Yes, everything [I]important[/I]."[/color] Saskia rolled their eyes. They quickly got dressed in some cargo pants, pockets filled with packets of trail mix and energy bars along with multiple knives. Combat boots, tank top, hoodie and a thick denim jacket - who knew how cold it got in the pit. Then they grabbed their bag, which was pretty heavy. 

[color=e77fbf]"Why do I have the biggest bag?!"[/color] Ella complained as she got dressed - wide legged, bright pink pants (after Saskia had insisted a skirt would be impractical), pastel pink crop top thankfully covered up by a pastel rainbow jumper. She was panickedly stuffing a shit ton of bright coloured jewellery and accessories into her bag, on top of the dildos. 

[color=DC143C]"Because you're the tallest, the strongest, and,"[/color] Saskia rolled their eyes again to punctuate their point, pulling her own tactical backpack (which was still pretty large) into their back. [color=DC143C]"The only one that insisted on bringing a shit ton of clothes to change into."[/color]

[color=e77fbf]"I use colours for my spells!"[/color]

[color=764820]”… Damn it, you’re going to get us eaten by a monster!”[/color] Lisa shouted as she threw on her outfit; for one, it wasn’t a dress. It was a black sweater, cargo pants, and brand-new combat boots. She threw her comically large backpack on and pondered out loud, [color=764820]”Like, will the Hound come get us-”[/color]

The three were wrapped in shadows and pulled back into the dark expanse known as… the Dark. Naturally, the Hound was across from them.

“... Are you ready?” He asked.

[color=DC143C]"Will you let us go back if we aren’t?"[/color] Saskia asked, folding their arms and staring at him.

“No,” The Hound answered, “You complete the mission or you don't.”

[color=DC143C]"So why even ask?"[/color] Saskia rolled her eyes.

“Formality,”

[color=e77fbf]"We are ready… look!"[/color] Ella turned around to show off her massive bag, then gestured to the little hip holster she’d gotten for her channeler along with the one slung over her shoulder to hold the ice scepter. [color=e77fbf]"We won’t fail you!"[/color]

“... You have no choice but to succeed,” As The Hound spoke, a glow-red crack formed in the ground between them. The crack pulsed with red light, as screams, roaring, and other sounds could be faintly heard.

“...[i] Dive.[/i]” The Hound commanded.

Lisa looked at Saskia and then Ella and extended a hand to both… Ella took her hand immediately, squeezing it. Saskia grimaced at the crack before taking Lisa’s hand, too.

[color=DC143C]"Let’s go."[/color] Then they stepped forward into the crack. Lisa was right behind them as they all fell into the crack…

It was nothing but red as they seemingly fell into eternity…
