“This is beautiful,” I smiled, looking down at my map. This place was beyond what I ever imagined. “Look over there, you can see…” I turned to talk to my best Melissa, but she was lip-locked with her boyfriend, Tyler.
“I know Sarah,” Melissa said as the two of them broke from each other. “It’s beautiful, it’s marvelous. You have been saying all those things from the moment we stepped off the plane.”
“But,” I began to say, but Tyler was already rolling his eyes.
“Why did we have to bring the nerd?” he asked Melissa. “She is ruining everything.”
“I am not ruining anything,” I scoffed, folding my arms. “Not my fault that I actually want to see the historic value of this place.”
“It has old buildings with a lot of history, if I wanted a history lesson I could have stayed home, plenty of old buildings over there.”
“None of them date back to…” I began to say as I took out another book from the satchel that hung from my shoulders.
“Another book,” Tyler said, waving his hands in the air. “I am done, when you want to have some fun, I will be with the others downstairs.”
Tyler walked to the stairway that led down from the rooftop. Melissa watched him go, then turned to me. Her eyes said it all.
“I’m sorry,” I shrugged.
“Sarah!” Melissa shouted back at me. “All I want is to hang out with my boyfriend, get totally wasted and have lots of sex, so that he doesn’t leave me for some cheerleader.”
Melissa blurted that all out in one breath. She stared at me then shook her head. “Stop ruining this for me!”
Melissa was my roommate in the dorm. She was always worried about some blonde-headed cheerleader stealing Tyler away from her. Which made her do anything and everything he asked, including things I could never get out of my head.
“You’re right,” I nodded as I put the book and the map away. “I’m sorry,” I smiled. “I will try to act like my hair color and pretend to laugh at their silly, immature jokes.”
“Thank you,” Melissa smiled as we hugged. “Now let’s get down from this roof, it’s freezing up here.”
We walked downstairs and met the others. Tyler was standing near his best friend Matthew, the pack leader, as I called him. Never to his face or out loud, but it was my nickname for him. Tyler was T.O. Which was short for his initials Tyler Owen. That’s what I told him anyway. I used it because of what I heard from Melissa. He didn’t last very long and always took long breaks between sessions. So, Time Out was what I used for him.
Rounding out the group was Tessa and her friend Stephanie, accompanied by their boyfriends Alex and Gregg. There was a rumour that they both slept with the entire football team in one night.
“We done here rainbow?” Matthew said as he kissed a girl that stood by him. She was a new someone he picked up at the bar last night. I didn’t bother to get her name.
“Yes,” I smiled. He had nicknamed me rainbow because of my brightly coloured rainbow scarf.
“Good,” Tyler said as he looked down at me. “This place is boring.”
“Let’s go somewhere warm,” Tessa whined.
“I know a place,” Alex smiled as he leaned into her.
‘I think I am going to be sick,’ I whispered to Melissa.
‘You promised,’ Melissa whispered back.
I nodded back as I followed them out of the abandoned building. I nodded to the caretaker as we got outside. He nodded back then locked the door. “So much history,” I said, looking back at the tall building.
“Wasted on these idiots,” I shook my head, looking at the group in front of me.
* * * * * * *
It had been two hours, and we were still in the same bar. I looked over my folders and things I wanted to do while they sat and drank. Melissa approached me. “You’re doing it again,” she said as she sat down next to me.
“Doing what?” I replied, not taking my eyes off my notepad.
“Ignoring Jeff,” Melissa said as she pointed out the last member of our group.
“I thought he was sick,” I said as I glanced up at him. “He looks perfectly fine to me.”
Jeff had said that he was sick this morning, which was why he hadn’t come with us this morning.
“Maybe it had something to do with you blowing him off last night,” Melissa said as she sat back in her chair.
I looked around the small bar. It wasn’t like the sports bars back home. No giant televisions were showing multiple games; there was just one above the bar. Two ladies served drinks and food to the patrons. They weren’t dressed in skimpy little outfits but regular clothes.
“We could have done this back home,” I shook my head as I returned my attention to my folder. “We were only a few minutes from the Castle,” I said with a smile.
“It’s a castle,” Matthew said, joining us. He spun the chair around and sat down on it.
“If they wanted the chairs to be sat on like that, they would have made them that way,” I rolled my eyes as he tried to act like he was the baddest, coolest person in the bar.
Jeff joined us, sitting on the right side of me. I sighed as I looked at them both. “What?” I asked, knowing they came over for a reason.
“Jeff tells me nothing happened with you guys last night,” Matthew said as he took a long swig of his beer. It was dark and thick, not like the typical beers I had seen them drink at the bar right outside campus.
“So,” I shook my head.
“You know these are called handlebars for a reason, right?” Matthew said as he played with my ponytail braids.
“They are called braids, my hair is long, and this is the best way to maintain it,” I said as I knocked his hand away.
“I think she is afraid of your dick,” Matthew said as he laughed.
“Yes, it is terrifying,” I scoffed.
“Come on, let’s get you some other girl to wet your whistle,” Matthew laughed as the two idiots got up.
“Jerks,” I said as I shook my head.
“Mel, you sure were right about her,” Matthew said as he turned back to look at me.
I turned to look at Melissa, who had a frightful look on her face.
Matthew sat back down. “Hey Tyler,” he shouted across the bar. The rest of the group came over to our table like summoned pets as they gathered around us and pulled chairs up closer to the already crowded table.
“What did you tell me the other day, about what Melissa told you?” Matthew smiled.
“Don’t,” Melissa said, shaking her head at her boyfriend. “Please.”
“It’s okay,” Matthew nodded.
“Miss know it all can take it right?” Matthew laughed. “I mean you are better than all of us, isn’t that, right?”
“She sure acts like it,” Tessa said as she leaned against her boyfriend. “Always looking down her nose at us.”
“Matt,” Gregg said as he leaned forward.
“No,” I said, holding up my hand and returning to my seat. “Big man on campus wants to show off, let him. It’s what you have wanted to do for how long? Exactly?”
“Tyler?” Matthew said as he looked up at Tyler.
I could see the struggle in Tyler’s face. One, he didn’t want to go against his best friend, and on the other, his girlfriend was pleading for him not to say anything.
“I will say it,” Jeff said, breaking the silence.
“Good boy!” Matthew laughed. He leaned forward. His light blue eyes and dark black hair stared right at me.
“Supposedly, Melissa had told Tyler she wished she had boobs like Sarah here,” Jeff said as he looked down at me.
“No,” Matthew said, shaking her head. “But she doesn’t have any, I mean look.”
I pulled my arms close to my chest. Staring at Melissa as I cursed her with every name I could think of inside of my head.
“Well,” Jeff said as he smiled. “Melissa told Tyler that not only did Sarah here get many offers from colleges all around the nation, but she also picked ours because it was in a cold state.”
“Why is that, Jeff?” Matthew smiled as he stared at me.
I willed myself not to cry, but I felt my world crashing down all around me.
“Well, Matthew,” Jeff said as he lowered his self to eye level with me. “Miss know it all here wears minimizer bra’s as well as puts on layers and layers of clothes to hide what Melissa calls fucking huge boobs,” Jeff said.
“No fucking way,” Stephanie shook her head.
“It’s true,” Tyler nodded. “I have seen the bra’s and they are fucking huge.”
“Is it true?” Matthew stared at Melissa.
Melissa shook her head. ‘I’m sorry,’ she mouthed to me.
I took off, pushing my way through the group as they laughed. I got into the bathroom and let it out; tears rolled down my face as I looked in the mirror.
“It’s okay,” I nodded. “I’m fine, I can call the airport and get my ticket changed,” I said to myself.
I heard someone open the door. Turning around, I saw Melissa standing there.
“I didn’t mean to…” she began to say. “It was supposed…” she kept wanting to say something, but I stared right through her. “It was going to get out eventually.”
“Shut up,” I snarled at her as I walked out.
They were still in the same spot when I came back. “We good?” Matthew asked.
“Peachy,” I replied. I sat back down and snatched his beer.
“Hey!” Matthew said as I drank the rest of it.
“What else?” I looked around at them. “That’s it?”
None of them said a word. “Oh,” I replied. “Then fuck off!”
Gregg was the only one that laughed and nodded. “Let’s go,” Matthew said as he shook his head.
I sat down and drank the rest of his beer. It seemed like I was in control on the outside, but inside all, I wanted to do was scream and fall to the floor. I had always been self-conscious about my chest. It was something I hid from everyone.
“Hi,” a voice said from behind me.
“Go away,” I said, shaking my head.
“I just wanted to ask,” a young dark-skinned man said as he walked in front of me. “Have you been there yet?”
He was pointing down to one of the pictures. “St. Vitus?” I asked as I saw which one he was pointing to, “No, not yet doubt I will now.”
“You mind?” he asked as he held onto the seat in front of me.
“No,” I nodded.
“I took these when I went there yesterday,” he said as he handed me his digital camera.
“Wow,” I said as I looked through them.
“I took these yesterday,” I said as I put his camera down. “I brought a printer so I could print them out.”
The two of us went back and forth on showing historical pictures of places we had been to and talked about places we wanted to go. I smiled a lot. It wasn’t often I met someone that could talk history with me. In some things, he knew more than I did. He wanted to be an architect, while I wanted to be a historian.
“Look at the two nerds,” Matthew said, breaking our long talk.
“Shut it,” I said, looking back at him.
“Winston?” a tall man said, standing next to Matthew. “You met a new book buddy?”
“Leave it alone, Terrence,” Winston said. In the long talk we were having, not once did we exchange names.
“We got a historic trip for both of you,” Terrence said. He was taller than Matthew, but the two of them looked like they could be brothers.
“What?” I asked, looking at Matthew.
“It’s true busty nerd, get your books, we are going underground,” Matthew said as the two of them walked outside.
Winston and I followed. Winston was taller than me, maybe by afoot. Most people were taller than me, seeing as I was only an inch over five feet.
“What’s going on?” I asked. It was just afternoon. It seemed like it would have been later the way Winston and I had been talking.
“Clyde here says there is some sort of local competition for tourists,” Tyler said.
Clyde stood in the middle of what was now a large group.
“Yes,” he said, his thick accent came over hard, drawing most of us closer to him. “We have subterranean tunnels that are below the city, they run all over,” Clyde said as he made his hands go wide. “Under the whole city in fact,” he smiled.
Winston and I immediately looked at each other. There was a slight look of fear in his. I was glad I wasn’t the only one. “Guys,” Winston said. “Maybe we should do this in the morning?”
“That’s the competition, you nerd,” Jeff said, shaking his head. All the others laughed along. Clyde walked around all of us and gave us chalk pieces.
“I will take you down to the nearest entrance,” Clyde smiled. “Once you are in all you have to do is explore on your own, when you get too scared mark the walls with your name and date and return the way you came,” he smiled.
Clyde took out a picture. “This is the picture of the group that got the farthest,” he said as he showed us a group of teenagers. “They almost made it to the tunnels under the castle.”
“What if we make it to the castle?” Terrence asked.
“Your whole stay is on us,” Clyde smiled. “We will give you the whole tour of our city, we will take care of food, drinks and everything else.”
“For the one that makes it?” a girl said.
“No,” Clyde said, shaking his head. “The whole group, only one of you have to make it, if all of you even better.”
“What could be better?” Winston asked.
“You will have to see,” Clyde said as a large van pulled up.
“Yes or no,” Clyde asked.
“Fuck yes,” Matthew said. “You had me at drinks.”
“Matthew?” I began to ask. Clyde and the driver shot me a glance that made me back up.
Winston noticed it as well. “You guys can go,” he said as he held on to my shoulders. “We can go look around,” he said as we both began to walk backwards.
“No,” Clyde said, shaking his head. “Whole group or no deal, we can find others.”
“Get in the fucking van!” Terrence said through gritted teeth.
“Are you scared?” the driver said. “Scared two men will kidnap sixteen people in large van?”
Clyde stopped a person walking by, “Take picture,” he said as he got near the van. The whole group posed with him. “Here,” he said as he showed me. “I post it on what? Facebook?”
“There,” the driver said. “Now many people see all of us, where are we going to hide?”
Winston looked at me. We both shrugged. There was something wrong with all of this, but even though she had hurt me, Melissa was my friend.
I got into the van, and Winston followed.
Clyde and the driver drove us out of the city. I kept taking pictures of where we were going and any landmarks we passed. Clyde smiled as I posted them.
“Here,” he said as we got out near some abandoned buildings.
“The city is that way,” the driver pointed. He gave us all compasses and flashlights.
“Make it as far as you can go,” Clyde said, nodding his head. “No heroics, no need to be brave and stupid. You get too scared, you turn and come back immediately.”
“What if we get lost?” another guy asked.
“We give you thirty minutes then we come follow, we know all the tunnels.”
“I’m good,” Jeff said as he walked down into the darkness of the tunnel ahead of us.
The others followed. Winston and I were the last. I turned to see Clyde waving at us. He was smiling.
“I don’t like this,” I whispered to Winston.
“Stick together,” Matthew bellowed from ahead of us.
Winston held out his hand. I quickly held onto it. “Together, right?” he nodded.
“Absolutely,” I replied.
* * * * * * * * * * *
The walls of the tunnel had squeezed us together in a single file. Matthew and Terrence were taking the lead. Winston and I were still in the back.
The flashlights made it easy to see all around us. We saw old ruins, rooms that looked like they had been lived in, maybe a very long, long time ago. Winston reminded me that most of the city was built on top of another older city.
A shifting noise broke the silence. It sounded like stone grinding against metal or something hard. “What the fuck?” Stephanie yelled.
The large group consisted of my usual few, coupled with Terrence and a few of his friends. They had come to Prague from England, which made me shake my head. I had thought Winston’s accent was from New York or Australia.
“Keep moving,” Terrence said.
We had only gone a few feet when Tessa stopped. “I’m turning back,” she said as she quickly scribbled her initials on the wall. Stephanie, Alex and Gregg followed suit.
“Fucking cowards,” Matthew said.
“Americans,” one of Terrence’s friends laughed.
“We get bigger scares getting on the fucking tube,” another smiled.
We started to walk faster with fewer people in the way. Winston was behind me and began to whistle a tune. I smiled as I recognized it from one of my favourite television shows. The two of us whistled low enough for the two of us only to hear.
A scream bellowed through the tunnels. It stopped us all dead in our tracks.
“That was Stephanie,” Melissa said.
We all turned around to look back behind us. All we could see was the walls of the tunnels and the rocks that made up the floor. The beams from our flashlights barely pierced the darkness.
There was another scream this came from a male.
“Gregg!” Matthew ran forward, pushing us aside. “That was fucking Gregg!”
Matthew said as he started to run. “Gregg!” he shouted as his light faded from us.
We followed fast behind him. We came to what was an open space. All of us stood around each other. All of us wanted to say it, but none of us wanted to admit it.
“This wasn’t here before,” one of the guys said.
He was right. We had run straight back. There were no open spaces the entire way when we came here. We all moved our flashlights around us.
“Fuck!” Winston shouted. “We fucking told you!”
“Shit, we are going to die down here,” Melissa said as she sunk to the floor. Part of me was glad she was crying as Tyler held her. The other part wanted to hold her and cry along.
“No, we are not,” One of the guys said as he went to one of the tunnels. “This one,” he said as he turned to us. “I held my chalk against the wall, here is my…”
He let out a scream as something grabbed him from the wall itself. I screamed hard as I watched a dark brown arm pull on him. His entire body began to get pulled into the wall. The sound of him screaming and bones breaking filled our ears.
Three of Terrence’s group fled into one of the tunnels. They dropped their flashlights.
“What the fuck!” Matthew shouted.
Terrence stood still, his eyes not leaving the large bloodstain on the wall. “They knew,” he said, shaking his head. “They knew that thing was down here!”
“Golem,” Winston said, nodding his head. “It’s a Golem.”
“But that’s just a myth, a rumor,” I stopped and looked at him. “Right?”
“What else?” Winston asked.
Another scream pierced the darkness, followed by another a few seconds later. It sounded like it was all around us.
“It’s picking us off one by one,” Matthew said.
“We have to get back up,” Winston nodded. “It can’t get us above ground. It is moving through the walls.”
Winston went to the tunnel with the markings. “If he was right, this should lead us back.”
I quickly followed behind him. The others weren’t far behind.
We walked in silence, trying not to give our position away. Suddenly there was another scraping noise ahead of us. “No!” Winston shouted as he started to walk faster.
He stopped and shook his head. “We are so fucked!”
“What?” Terrence asked.
“It’s a fucking maze with movable walls,” Winston said. “Look!” he pointed his flashlight at the wall. The yellow marking of the chalk disappeared after a point. Another clearing was ahead of them. “It’s a perfect trap.”
Winston walked into the clearing. There was a bloodstain on the opposite wall. “Right back where we started.”
“I can’t die down here, I just can’t,” Melissa cried again, falling against the wall.
“The wall!” I screamed, but it was too late. Two large arms wrapped around her waist and pulled her in. The look on her face was pure terror. Her body snapped in half as she was pulled backwards.
“No!” Tyler shouted as he pounded on the wall.
“Fuck!” Matthew screamed as loud as he could.
“That’s not helping,” Terrence said.
“What would you rather me do?” Matthew said, looking at Terrence.
“Look, you still have most of your friends, all of mine are dead!” Terrence shouted back. “Leave me the fuck alone.”
“Oh yeah, or what?” Matthew said as he approached him.
“Great a fist fight,” Jeff said as he walked towards the two of them. “We are stuck in a maze and now we get to fight each other.”
He walked towards one of the other tunnels. “I am going this way, and if I die. I want to be alone. So, none of you fucks follow me. If I make it out,” he paused as he looked at me. “I won’t tell them a damn thing. I hope it gets you next, you frigid bitch.”
He disappeared into the tunnel.
“That’s a good idea,” Tyler said, “Come on,” he motioned to Matthew.
They walked to the nearest tunnel. “Tyler,” I said as I stepped forward.
“You say one word about Melissa, I swear that thing won’t need to kill you,” he said as he turned to look at me. “One fucking word!”
I nodded and backed away. They disappeared into the darkness of the tunnel.
“Come on Terrence, you can come with us,” Winston said as we headed back to the tunnel with the markings.
“Nah,” Terrence said, shaking his head. “I will wait right here, you make it out okay,” he nodded. He was backing up towards one of the walls.
“No, Terrence, come with us,” Winston said as he moved towards him.
“Nah, I got this, you get yourselves out of here, you hear me, get the fuck out…” he said as his back touched the wall.
There was a moment where we thought nothing was going to happen. Then it came for him. “Run!” he shouted before his body was taken.
“Go!” Winston shouted. We ran into the tunnel. My feet pounded against the rocks. I felt every jagged stone as they hit the soles of my feet.
There was another scream. It sounded like Jeff. “This way,” Winston said. We were running towards the noise.
“I think I got it,” Winston said. He stopped and waited. “Come on,” he said, looking around for something. Then the shifting noise started. “Yes!” he exclaimed. He turned right around, facing me.
“This way,” he said as we went back the way we had just come. I expected to be in the clearing again.
There were more tunnels.
“Wait for it,” Winston said almost apologetically.
“Wait for what?” I asked.
“Sorry,” he said as he shook his head.
The sound of Tyler and Matthew shouting and screaming came loud and clear. I looked at Winston. He knew it was going for them.
“It’s a pattern,” Winston said as he walked forward. “We are stuck in the same area. Not moving forward, not moving backward. They waited for us to reach this area and then popped the trap.”
“The only thing I had to figure out was how long it took to get from one side to the other,” Winston said.
“I don’t care,” I shook my head. “Can we get out?”
“One of us,” Winston said. “He said it, one of us gets the whole trip taken care of, the even better is if all of us die in here.”
“But,” I began to say.
“Go that way,” Winston pointed. “When it gets me, I will yell north or south. When I do you have to run nonstop as fast as you can in that direction and you will beat the timer.”
“What timer?” I asked.
Winston pointed up as the grinding sound was heard again. “That one, but you have to hurry.”
“No,” I shook my head.
“Go!” he pushed me as he ran in the other direction.
I ran as fast as I could. I didn’t want to leave him. I could go back, I thought to myself. I could follow him. My head was saying one thing, but my body was doing another.
Then I saw something up ahead. I pointed my flashlight. It was the yellow chalk outline. I was going in the right direction. Or I thought going back.
“NORTH!” a bellow yelled.
“No!” I screamed as loud as I could. It had got him. I looked down at my compass. “North,” I began to run that way, then thought to myself they had lied to us. “The compasses are wrong.”
“Pick a way,” I said to myself. I turned back around and ran. My heart was beating out of my chest. My legs felt like they were going to give up.
Then I heard it. The grinding sound, but this time it was behind me. I cheered inside my head. I had got out. The tunnel walls began to widen. The familiar sites of the ruins greeted me, then the old rooms. After I walked a few more feet, I could see Clyde and his partner ahead of me.
“Pay me,” the driver said as I approached.
Clyde handed over what seemed like money.
“Get in,” Clyde said.
“But?” I began to say.
“Get the fuck in,” he ordered.
I was in no shape to argue. I had no fight or stamina left in me to run anywhere. I slowly climbed into the back of the van.
“Winston!” I yelled as I hugged him.
“Ouch,” he yelled, holding his stomach.
“How?” I asked, sitting next to him.
“He cheated,” Clyde responded. “That’s how.”
“I used blood from the wall, to make it come for me,” Winston smiled. “The moment it came out to grab the blood-soaked rag. I ran.”
“See cheated,” the driver nodded.
“Rule is only one, not two, one,” Clyde said.
“Fuck you both,” I said with a mean look on my face. Everyone I had come with to this country was now dead.
