Shadow Slave
Chapter 32
With an empty stomach and a head full of thoughts, Sunny returned to the center of the platform and sat down. After a while, he beckoned to his shadow and said:
"Wake me up if anything happens."
Then, he closed his eyes and tried to fall asleep. His consciousness quickly slid into the sweet embrace of darkness, giving Sunny some well-needed rest.
In the middle of the night, however, a sudden impulse stirred him awake. Sunny jumped to his feet, his groggy mind full of tense apprehension. He was afraid that the owner of the giant tentacle had come back to finish the job.
Or maybe some other horror from the depths had sensed him and decided to snack on human meat.
However, the sea was quiet and calm. He didn't hear any abnormalities around the knight's statue.
"What is it?" Sunny whispered, addressing the shadow.
The shadow silently pointed him in a particular direction.
Turning his head, Sunny squinted. He quickly understood why it was a good idea to wake up. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to see…
Out there in the distance, a few kilometers away, a small orange light was shimmering in the darkness. Its reflections were rising and falling with the movement of waves.
It was too far away to make out any details, so Sunny just stared at it for a while. Pretty soon, the light disappeared.
"Other Sleepers? Natural phenomenon? Or some monster laying a trap?"
Memories of nightmarish deepwater creatures immediately came to his mind.
Shaking his head, Sunny lay back down and attempted to return to his slumber. However, this time sleep was escaping him. Pangs of hunger were still not unbearable, but slowly becoming more and more intense. The thirst, however, was worse.
