It was as if his heart stopped beating as the eyes of the beast glowed in the dark. It was ominous, and Daniel himself didn't know whether to go forward or to go back.
Back wasn't an option; soon Matt would be on his trail, so he needed to get out of the place as fast as possible. Only if he could recognize where he was taken to.
Alex grunted in his embrace, his eyes threatening to close permanently, but Daniel refused to let it happen. He forcefully held his eyes open because he knew that if anything happened which made Alex close his eyes, then it was over.
"We can do this. Just through this, and I promise we shall be back in the real world," Daniel whispered. Though he was shaking within, he wouldn't back down yet, and shockingly, since they had been standing there, the shadow didn't attack. So he decided to take the bull by the horns and move forward.
