I had forgotten to ask x about how to get there, but I couldn't turn back. I did rember where I had to go to get there for the most part.
So, I bolted out of the house but slowed to close the door quietly. Once it was latched, I took off running to the front gate entrance of the Keep.
There were no guards at the gates as I ran out. I was surprised by that, but I guess they were more just for show, considering who x was.
I didn't really have the ti to be worrying about that right now, and I took off running. Though not too fast, I didn't want to gas myself as soon as I got started.
It was still mostly dark, but the sun was slowly starting to lighten the sky as I ran down the path to where I would be training with Grovel later. Once I arrived, I looked to the northwest.
I was looking for the top of the Maze that I had seen before but noticed a path. That hadn't been there before, so I had to assu x made it and started to run down it.
This path was jungle-like, similar to the one to go to Wataluga's area, and it was almost identical in the way that it looked. I wasn't paying that much attention, though; It was starting to get very light out, but now I could see the massive three-story-tall grey stone building about two hundred ters in front of .
Then I saw her, sitting proudly at the entrance, eyeballing . It was Max's fuck buddy and my best friend, the Sphinx; I was too late.
"So, looks like you don't get to just sneak around !" Candice said with triumph, but I didn't have ti for her gas.
I walked up and then straight past the giant Sphinx. I kept going without even looking at her, and she didn't seem to like that.
"HEY! You can't just go in there! You have to answer my riddle!" Candice shouted at , and I could tell that she was turned to face from the projection of her voice, but I just kept walking.
"Sorry, I don't have ti for your gas. I also don't have to answer any of your questions, and you can't do anything about it," I said as I entered the Maze, but then there was another Sphinx waiting inside for , and I rolled my eyes.
A guy just couldn't get a break, but they couldn't harm , so I wasn't sure if I should be worried about them or not. x has said that they couldn't hurt , but he also said that they were going to make my life a living hell if they caught .
"So you are the one that has Candice all worked up? Not much to you, but you have seed to get under her skin, and she is my little sister, so I don't think that I will let you pass," The more enormous Sphinx said as she blocked my way, and I groaned but ran straight at the massive creature.
The Sphinx was surprised and unable to react to as I dropped down and slid on my shorts underneath the creature. The mont I was past the older sister, I was up and running again.
"HEY! That is not how this works!" The Sphinx called out after in anger, but her voice was already starting to fade as I put more and more distance between us.
I was glad that I was able to get free from them, but now I had no idea where I was going. The inside was all smooth grey stone, unlike the rough texture of the outside. I had rembered it from coming in, but there was nothing to indicate which way to go.
At first, it wasn't too bad if I took a wrong turn, and the dead-end would be right away, but after the fourth fork in the path, the wrong paths started to get longer. That ant that I had to spend more ti backtracking, and when I got back from my second long walk back, the girls were waiting for .
"Think you're so smart! You won't fool my sister, Veronica, twice!" Cadence called out to as I approached, and I rolled my eyes.
"Oh, then that ans that you are the one that always gets tricked? Wait, don't answer that; I have sothing better, I said as I walked up to the two Female Sphinx that was blocking my way.
"You want to ask us a question? What makes you think that we will answer you?" Veronica asked as she looked down at , but I just shrugged.
"Maybe you do, maybe you don't, doesn't really matter to ," I said as I looked the girls up and down like I was sizing them up and then asked them a question. "How many Sphinx does it take to screw in a light bulb?"
Both creatures looked thoroughly confused, and that was exactly how I thought that they would react.
"The answer is over there," I said, pointing down the hall that I had initially co from, and both of the Sphinxes looked over at the sa ti.
I ducked down and ran through Veronica's leg, and then out from behind her, and started to run again, but this was going to keep on happening if I let them stay behind . Not like I had a lot of options at this point, and I guessed that I would just have to keep dealing with them.
Then I heard a dongling noise coming from ahead that sounded strangely familiar. I listened as I got closer to the sound. Soon, as I progressed further, I was able to hear the sound more clearly, and I knew what I was hearing, the Blue Oyster Cult and Will Ferrell had engraved it into my head.
Now I just had to listen to know what way to go, and the sound of the Cowbell got closer and closer, but then sothing weird started to happen. As I got near to the sound, the sound started to move away from , and then I stopped, and so did the Cowbell.
Oh, you have got to be kidding ! Now I had to chase this Scaredy-Cow around the Maze?
"Ha! Found you!" called Candice, and she and Veronica ca barreling around the corner.
Great, now this has just beco a Looney Tunes skit!
I had no choice but to turn and chase after Jessabell cause I need more Cowbell!
