Chapter 1
The Girl With The Red Cape Who Isn't Red Riding Hood.
Moving quickly through the darken hallways of the UnderWorld Castle, spiders creep and crawl around, spinning their shiny and deadly webs. The master's three-headed dog is snoring loudly while resting upon a hidden door which is underneath a black laced mat. Inside are things that even the Master's daughter, Goddess Of The UnderWorld, doesn't even want to know exist.
Still, a bright blood red cape drifts down the darken hallway, past creepy crawlies, vicious dog heads, past the dungeon where echoes of terrified and painful screams are erupting from. Then the cape stops in front of a large wooden door and silently slips through. If you listen intently, you could hear a teenage girls soft chuckle as she looks around the library she just entered.
Her dark eyes immediately rest upon a dusty book that is currently laying cover down on an old and creaky shelf near the ceiling. Any mortal would have either given up then or tried to climb up after seeing there is no ladder to the top of any of the bookcases in the enormous and usually empty room.
But this girl is no mortal. A wicked smile spreads across her red lips and she closes her eyes, concentrating hard. She can feel herself lifting off the ground, floating higher and higher until at last, her olive skinned hands are grasping the thick, weather-worn book. Her vexatious smile is slowly dissapearing as she realizes her job is complete. Falling with a thud, her concentration is broken. The mysterious girl groans but stands without so much as a bruise or scratch.
It was then that the girl with the red cape leaves the room and locks the door with a muttered spell. She races through the Castle Of The UnderWorld, running faster and faster until she hears hurried and furious voices. Coming to a sudden halt, she listens until she's positive the conversation isn't about her. But she's wrong. The conversation is about the girl in the red cape and she's being watched in the most unusual way.
Just an Author's note, no this girl isn't Red Riding Hood. I'm not going to say who it is, but you will find out in the next chapter. I hope you like it so far :)

Lol well it's sorta like a horror story, but it's also not one. If you look at the Ben;'s photo album, you might be able to figure out who the mysterious girl is. :)
Nice beginning Ben! I literally couldn't stop reading!
It's good. I can't wait to read more.
Wow, really good!!!
Wow great description!
Can't wait for the next chapter! Sounds good...as long as the UnderWorld isn't just a fiery hell (which is almost an oxymoron, considering Hel was the Queen of an icy underworld...XD), like they did in the Percy Jackson movies.
Don't worry it isn't. Thanks for the comment. :)
