Chapter 283: Old Allies Part 3

We all nod and Reid follows the Pweboles filing out of the room. I'm behind him and then it's Pratt and Mae with the others behind them. The ceiling is high, but the walls are even narrower in here, allowing only one person through at a time. I'm not sure how the Pweboles are able to carry Werzo. Being so small, they might be able to fit about three across, but for the rest of us, it's one after the other.

We move quickly, following the curve of the tunnel, letting the Pweboles lead the way. Their blue lights illuminate the tunnel ahead in a dim cobalt glow. Except around me. The walls reflect a soft pink hue and I hope it reaches all the way back to Walker. I look down at my Callix and smile. It's wrapped around my left wrist which Reid pulls along behind him. We travel in silence for about twenty minutes or so. It's hard to tell because we just keep walking, keep weaving through this underground tunnel that seems to go on and on. At one point, Mae tugs on my right hand.
