The Lonesome Corner
I: A Word Howled Out
Previous ChapterNext ChapterWrapping their gems around their necks, feeling power emanate like a shining aura of magic, Twilight and Sunset scurry towards the exit with their phones, as well as the book, in tow. As the hurried sounds of footsteps racing towards the door thunder through the room, Twilight stops running as she cracks the book back open, able to see the words through the light of her necklace. Sunset also stops running and races back to Twilight, who is hurriedly reading through the pages. "No, no, no, got it!" she yells out, leading Sunset to lean over.
Twilight points to a passage, and explains "That's why it showed up as soon as I read those last words! Listen: It is said that the creature depicted let out a deep roar within the cave, causing them to flee. While the legend is scattered through time, the word Lombado may still be said, and the creature could be near."
"Seems unlike you to miss that," Sunset said, crossing her arms, "But okay. I say we go find our friends before we try leaving. The Lombado, if that is it's name, could be anywhere, and I would love it if we weren't the only two here, no matter what powers we have."
Twilight opens her pack, Spike nervously poking his head out as he makes room for The Lonesome Corner, letting him say "B-But there's more of them, and their powers let them f-fight a little better."
Twilight nods and says "Good idea, Spike, but leaving them alone still sounds risky." After finishing her sentence, she and Sunset race out of the library, only to find even more darkness. The lockers are rattling as students grab everything they can before either walking out or fleeing, and the snowfall outside remains visibly black and charcoal. The front door and the girls' Music Practice room are both right there.
Author's Note
First, I want to give a shout out to my two main inspirations, The Life of a Wanted Changeling series by Down With Chrysalis and Wake up, See this, What do? by RazortheAwesome. Without them, I would've never discovered "Comment Driven" stories.
Second: Sorry for the short chapter! Since we're just starting out, I only had one suggestion. While I do have a plan for this story should the need arise, I am excited to see more suggestions in the future. I hope you enjoy.
