The Sewer Mystery Chapter 2
I opened my eyes. everything around me went dark and the sounds of sewer water faded away as I drifted away. Some gravel fell while I was unconscious along with sewer bricks and sewer water falling through the cracks of the now broken sewer drain. I once again awoke from my Nightmare My hair was soaked from sewer water and my clothes were torn. I was covered in dust and injurys. My left leg was stuck under a small pile of bricks and my left left was free. I tried to kick the bricks over off of my leg but was to wounded. My arms were weak so I couldn't use them. I tryed to move my right leg out from under the pile of bricks but I couldn't even feel it. My flashlight was stuck under a pile of rubble that was easy to remove with my left leg I tryed dragging it to me but it rolled the other way. Now I couldn't even see what I was doing while stuck in complete silence. Suddenly my arms came back to me I pushed up off of the ground falling back down onto the hard wet ground. There was a metal bar from the sewer drain near by I reached my right arm over past the bricks trying to reach it. falling back on to the ground I could feel something in my right leg. I tryed to see what it was but it was to dark so. Instead I reached out toward the pain in my leg feeling the bar I tried to reach I figured out that it was in my leg. I wrapped both of my hands around it and pulled really hard feeling the burn slowly rushing up as I screamed in pain I let go. Catching my breath I couldn't get that bar out of my my without help or the free use of my leg. As the blood began. Leaving my leg faster now I had to think fast so without thinking I grabed the bar again tbrusting it out of the flesh wound and out into the sewer air back onto the ground. I had control of my quickly bleeding out leg now pulling it out from under the brick pile. I grabbed onto the piles of ash and rubble. I could feel the garbage drifting through the water and the blood rushing down my leg I had to find something to wrap my wound. I grabbed my flashlight from of of the ground looking down the tunnel I could see IT, IT was looking right at me with the dark hood and the dark overcoat and the tentacle arms. As it drained into the sewer water I collapsed onto the rubble scrapping my leg. Screaming in pain I got back up off of one knee and on to the other. I began limping down towards where I saw IT I waddled over torwards the wall. Holding onto the wall and moving down my leg was swelling I was losing balance. I tried to keep going but found myself crawling dow the tunnel holding my flashlight towards the end of the tunnel I could see Crank the tentacles wrapped around his body squeezing his life away. I had to get there fast but my leg wasn't gonna let that happen looking at the trash that flows down the sewer stream I saw an old torn wrap of clothe from my shirt crawling over to grab it I fell in the water letting it sink into my mouth spitting it back into the stream. I yanked the clothe out and tied it around my would pulling it forcefully the blood slowly stained into the clothe. Now that my wound was stopped I could get to Crank faster than before there was a loose pipe on the wall that could easily be pryed off so I gripped onto it with my hands tugging on it it came of so easy that I fell back down into the stream. I used the pipe to get back up and walk slowly getting over to Crank I was so close now. Closer than ever in fact maybe a little to close because the wall came crashing out as a tentacle knocked me over the pipe grinded across my face. I reached back to the pipe and got back up. I took a swing at the tentacle sending it flying around Cranks body and back into the ceiling. Swung again almost striking a home run that sent me falling over on the ground I slammed the pipe down to keep myself up I rose back up. and struck the fianl thread holding Crank the beast screeched and slid its tentacle out in a hurry. Crank fell on the ground hitting his back really hard. He was only slightly still breathing but Krew was slowly losing blood pressure as he began falling over he dropped the pipe and his flashlight flickered. The battery was dying and so was he his head began to black out and so did the rest of the sewer along with Crank.
