Hesitate to Resuscitate

There was sudden shift in the wind inside the labyrinth and Red whipped her head to her left. She had felt something, or possibly someone, was definitely watching her.

But nothing could be seen aside from walls and walls of flowers and leaves.

Red found herself in the middle of three separating paths that went on a triangular pattern. The hedges seemed to be taller here and her surroundings began to dim further even with her fire burning.

Three paths faced Red and the one to her front was the darkest path. It may have been her imagination, but she thought she saw a glimpse of movement up ahead and the hair on her arms stood on its ends.

"W-who is there?" she stuttered, her voice a quite loud but still a bit shy of a whisper.

Perhaps it was the seeker who found her? She was now convinced this day had to be her unluckiest day. It hadn't been ten minutes in the labyrinth and now it seems she was already defeated.
