learn to read between the lines, yeah?
We moved deeper into the cave or tunnel, or whatever Chem thought it was. It was a slow process, we could only move so fast and had to wait in flashes of lightning to illuminate the chilled blackness before we could move on. So there was a lot of wait time, or really slow shuffling time. I didn’t mind, while it was a bit scary, Chem was there reassuring me. I felt him nudge me on, work me forward, guide me further into other darkness...which is technically close to safety--the exit. I feel him, his breath, and his lips get more adventurous as we worked further into this cave. My nerves fired even more rapidly in the dark. I forgot my doubts, my worries, as Chem seemed so sure. Why doubt, when Chem knew exactly what to do, and kept you right there in place--safe. Part of me thought I should probably tell him to slow down with the wandering nuzzles, but the rest of me liked the attention so I let it go-- it was only a fleeting moment anyway. Soon enough the cave changed from black to gray, to a hazy blue, until the light outside the end of the
”Chem you were right! It was a tunnel!” I laugh as the words roll off my tongue, and hop a little in celebration. I look at Chem as I realized I was making a bit of a scene with my reverie. I don’t want to be seen as a child to him, even though I know I am no longer some little filly. But he doesn’t mention anything related to her joys, but instead whispered in her ear, “Come.” Again his breath on me made the whole situation feel much more exciting than it probably was. It was as if he had some grand plan that I couldn’t wait to be a part of, like he had a secret he wanted to share with me (Little did I know how true that was.). He trotted off, and I did too, following him into the lightly wooded area. As I followed Chem’s larger frame, I thought I smelled the familiar ashy smell that was ingrained every molecule of Chamber. But it wasn’t strong, or constant. But the rush of the large creek they approached was drowning out most of everything else. ”We are going to have to cross.” I know my eyes widened at the thought, but Chem was in the water, looking for me to follow. I shook my head, Chem was stomach deep and the water looked to push strongly against him. ”Chem… There is no way… the water is too strong… I… I can’t.” Chem was there at the bank ready to help, his eyes were steady on mine, and something about it made me think I could do it. So I did.
About halfway through the water, I lost my footing however. The water was rushing so fast that i stumbled and was pushed back by the force of the water. THe water was up to my chest, easily able to wash me down stream. A hiss of pain escaped my lips as something sharp broke the skin of one my knees. As the water shoved me down stream Chem caught me, and with his guidance I regained my balance and we exited the water on the other side.”You ok, Little?” Chem didn’t wait for me to answer though, he was already checking for himself. So caring, my Chem. ”Yeah… just a cut on my knee from when I slipped--CHEM!” I kick out at Chem as he ventured underneath my belly. What in tarnation did he think he was doing? It had all been tingles and when Chem dipped his head lower the sensation intensified but it was a weird thing to do, too weird to let it go. I turned my hind end from him so that I was facing him more directly. I didn’t know how to handle that whole thing. I was so desperately unequipped for that sort of thing. ”Chem… I…” I was obviously flustered my tail twitched and I couldn’t look Chem in the eye. THe truth was that brain and body had sent completely different signals and it was enough to make her not know how to address the tall stallion. ”I can catch hints of Chamber in the air…. We should probably be going….” You would think that I would be happy to be so close to Chamber after everything. But the words came out sad, almost reluctantly. Apparently this was a moment of odd truths of body and mind, because she also knew that if Chem would just ask her to delay or give her a reason she would follow him for a while longer. There was something about him that made her feel she needed him or at least didn’t want to let go just yet.

nymphetamine x kimber
OOC:Its a little choppy… sorry about that. Also, in my head, the rescue party (Kimber, Nymph Ygritte, and Kreios) would be showing up soon. (ike now if chem decides to take her to chamber or maybe after the next “distraction”) I know you saw that we finished it OOC, but I pictured it going down like the adults were all ready to tear Chem apart but Vessel stood up for Chem saying he didn’t try to kidnap her (because she is oblivious to his manipulations). Then after that the adults reluctantly leave and Chem would be all proud of Vessel. But that is just my opinion. We can totally play out their interactions after the “search party” left if you want.
