For my world is hollow and I have touched the sky...
Sorry this post has nothing to do with Star Trek.
I've written myself to a standstill. For Twenty eight chapters Princess Tasha has been talking about getting to the surface of her planet. She's been tortured, cut open, gone a little crazy, gotten better, been saved by Sword and had fought along side him.
Sword has tried before to reach the surface and had to return defeated. He's grown to care for the girls he's had to travel with, originally because he had been ordered to go with them to but now he wants to. And he respects Tasha so much that he gets a little freaked when Tasha bows to him.
Ifirt and Ian have pretty much refused to be left behind (Also, Tasha and Sword would never have escaped where Tasha was tortured if it hadn't been for them.)
Forge is a new character who's invited herself along. Her motivations are her own and she has a hidden agenda but she is not necessary malicious. However she would step forward and elbow the others out of the way if they take to long in moving their backsides.
These five are standing at the end of the tunnel to the surface...and I don't know who opens the door and who takes the first step outside.
