Grazgrow: Episode 1-How The Graz Grows (Pilot)
Chapter 2
Previous ChapterAfter a few hours, school had ended and both Cloud Nova and Electric Sky headed off to meet up at the same place they always do, Cloud's backyard, in order to further examine the book they had discovered in the school library earlier that day.
"What?! How?" Sky exclaims as she trots back and forth in a futile attempt too wrap her head around something of this scale.
"That's just impossible... " Cloud mutters as he sits and scratches his head. "I've never seen this stuff anywhere before, yet here it is. Written as if fact."
"More importantly, what the hay is a spider? Gross! Or a... tiger!" She quickly gulps in fear. "T-tigers sound scary!" She whimpers as she zooms into an overhanging tree branch.
"Sky, come on..." Cloud says to a seemingly frightened mare in a tree.
"Whats up?" Sky blurts out nonchalantly as she swings downward, hanging from the branch by her two back legs.
"I think we should probably tell Flare about this. But before that...do you think there is actually a way over the wall?"
"Well duh." She says as she flaps her wings in an over emphasized manner."Although, do you really think Flare should know? He'll just think we're crazy."
"I don't know, we will see... lets go find the nearest wall section or whatever." Cloud stands up and starts on towards the City wall, making sure to have brought the book with him.
"Sure thing." Sky says as she jumps out of the tree and begins following Cloud."I'll try flying over without being spotted by a guard."
"No Sky, we have to go together."
"Well, I probably can't lift you, but I'll sure as hay try." Sky responds, not understanding his
meaning.
"Sky, the wall's like 60 meters high..."
"... I know."
Looking at the wall, the first word that comes to mind for most would be Imposing. The grandious wall stands 60 meters tall, and seems to be made of an impenitrable glossy white substance. Similar in style to Cloud's house, but most assuredly not in composition. The wall has supposedly never been passed though, but even so, there are always City Guards stationed around, making sure nopony gets near enough to test that.
"Listen, I think is better if we can find a way through-" Before Cloud can finish his sentence, he is halted by a guard who had spotted them sneaking around the city limits
.
"Stop right there. What are you kids up to in this area?" The guard states with heavy authority.
Sky glances at the book in Cloud's bag and then back up to the guard. "Uh, we were just going to return this book back to the library." She nervously explains to the irritated guard.
"Hm, well alright then. Be on your way. I don't want to see you causing any trouble around here, understand?"
"We understand, yes Sir." Cloud blandly states as he ans Sky trot back in the opposite difection of the wall. "We had better do this during the night." He whispers to Sky when he's sure they're out of earshot of the Guard.
"Yeah, there are just too many guards during the day. We'd better make a plan." Sky says as she picks Cloud up in order to head back to his house more quickly. As they arrive, they start looking at a modern map of the City in comparison to the old map in the book in hopes of discovering something they can use to get through "Why do you think they put the wall up anyway? Sky says as she stares at the pages.
"Well, according to the book, the wall has been her since the City was first built, however long ago that may have been."
"But come on, just look at this map. According to it, there's nothing out there beyond the wall anyway."
