Snakes, Bones, and the Occasional Embryo Part 5

(This is the final part of Chapter 1, Enjoy!)
Part 5
      With that the skeletons rushed at me with so much force I could’ve been smashed into a million pieces, but I dodged and swung one’s head off into the pile with the others. I then turned to another skeleton, who decided to fall into pieces. He was probably just afraid of me, so I didn’t see any harm in just letting his bones lie there. That is probably where I went wrong.
      The last of the skeletons was easy to finish off, mainly because he just stood there. After I took care of him I realized why I came in here in the first place. I rummaged through the cabinets and drawers, but there weren’t any sharp objects so I guess I had to persuade her to let me go by having information that I shouldn’t have.
      “I know your innermost fear,” I told her.
      “I don’t have one silly boy.”
      Darn I thought in my mind, and that is when I heard it; the skeleton was reforming and not just with all of his bones, but with all of the bones around him. He was turning into a beast with the bones from all of the other five skeletons. When his transformation was over I ran into the other room and completely forgot about the skulls in here. Right when he walked into the room it was like a magnet to the other skulls. They all shot at him and morphed into one giant person. The giant skeleton raced toward me and I tried to dodge it but he hit me and I slammed into a book shelf and strangely enough it fell revealing a big tunnel in the back of the cabin.
      “What the heck.” I said and raced down the tunnel.
      As I ran down the dark tunnel I started to think about what happened to the other she-devil-girl-person. Maybe she died or maybe she was trying to be evil and help the other one. Either way I didn’t know what had happened or where I was going now.
      I decided that I wasn’t being followed and started to slow down. As I slowed down I heard loud breathing which could only be from one person; the evil she-devil. The breathing started getting closer so I decided that I would try to hide against the side so I could sneak out the way I had come in.
      “Come on my child he shouldn’t be much further we are almost to Fulmar’s fortress he couldn’t have gotten in there.” She snarled at her minion.
      “Good idea Harpe.” Harpe’s minion shouted.
      “SSSSSSShhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! The boy must never know my name! Got it my child.” She hissed at him, as though someone had just killed her parents.
      “Yes ma’am.” He whimpered as though she had just hit him.

      They ran past me, and I was grateful that they did not find me. I waited until I could no longer hear the breathing and then I ran back to the entrance of the tunnel and climbed out on top of the bookshelf, and that is when I realized where the front door was. This would be a great start to my journey, so I decided to walk out the door.
