Across The Bridge Novels & Stories

Is this academy over a river? "This is an illusion. There is no bridge or river here." Jessica says as if reading my mind."We need to cross the bridge to get to the door over there." I look closely at the patch of land across the bridge and find something red attached to the hill that was hidden by fog. Great illusion. If they can make such graphics, then it will make a fortune. I wonder why the witches never tried that. "Fine! Then let's go." I move forward but something whooshes past my sight. It was so fast that I couldn't decipher what it was.

Just by standing there and observing everything around her, Audrey already felt relaxed and delighted. "This is Iridos? What a beautiful place." To be able to cross the stream, one has to utilize the small bridge constructed over it. Audrey can't help but gasp in amazement as she crossed the bridge because the bridge provides her proper elevation allowing her to further witness the beauty of the surroundings. Crossing to the other side of the bridge, there was a pathway leading straight to the tall white buildings not too far away. But to her astonishment, just the mere pavement of their school seems to be made from pure gold!

And then he rolled his eyes at the frowning forehead and came towards her thoughtfully. "Look at that." He stretched out his arm and pointed towards the bridge. She looked in the direction of his arm. There was a bridge made of four ropes with two ropes for walking and one rope for walking around. Seeing the bridge, people started trembling with fear. "Now don't say you have to go beyond that." She opened her eyes full of fear and asked in a frightened voice. "We can’t go back. They are still here. My mobile has lost somewhere so I can’t call someone. All we have to do is go across it and then untie the ropes on the other side so we can save more."

Taking my eyes off Asa, I noticed a cobble bridge ahead of us. I couldn't see what lay at the other side but the bridge looked old and gave off some kind of medieval aura. The bridge had no railings by its side. It was just like a long stone built inbetween a huge gap on the ground. "This seems scary" I voiced out my fears to the sylph. "Don't worry ok. Just clutch by me" Asa reassured. I clinged next to Asa, my feets carefully treading across the bridge. It would be a shame if I end up falling from this death bridge after everything I've been through.

The first men who arrived at the bridge started to cross and gave instructions that two more men were to follow him and then 2 would head off in one direction and the remaining two would go the other to try and find another way to get across and cut her off. Amaris was now in a panic as the three men moved slowly and cautiously across the bridge to her. They had to hold on to the remaining side and walk on the side of the bridge slats as they were now dangling sideways. The weight of the three men and Amaris prying was starting to pull harder on the lone peg in the ground, but it was not moving fast enough for Amaris. She cursed and kicked at it as all at once

A rickety rope bridge stretched across the gap, swaying precariously in the wind. “You’ve got to be kidding me,” I muttered, staring at the bridge. “It’s our only option,” Zara said, already moving toward it. Rowan grabbed her arm. “That thing won’t hold all of us at once.” “Then we go one at a time,” she replied, shaking him off. The sound of footsteps and shouting drew closer, cutting off any further argument. Zara stepped onto the bridge, testing its strength before motioning for me to follow. “Hurry!” she urged.

"You've got to be kidding me." "Terribly sorry, ma'am. sir," the tall one said quickly, bowing slightly like that would fix anything. "Unfortunately, the hotel is fully booked tonight. We can only resolve this by morning." My stomach dropped. Fully booked? meaning.. The jerk let out a low chuckle that infuriated me. "Well, sweetheart, looks like we're roommates." "Over my dead body," I snapped. The nerve. still....why did that stupid chuckle sound so good?

“Oh, and Ben?” Brax turned back around to face the troll. “If elderly travelers want to cross your bridge, let them. I’ll gladly pay the f*e.” Brax said then turned back so we could continue walking along the path. “Of course, Prince.” Ben spoke from behind us. Then we heard his sloshing footsteps as he rushed back through the stream of water and under his bridge. I was gushing over the way Brax handled the troll under the bridge.

the speed increased, we caught up with the others and even surpassed them. The further we went the chiller the air became, even the day darkened unnaturally, my heart nearly leaped into my arms on sighting what was before us. A long endless bridge, carved with skulls, some in their wolf form, some in their human form, the bridge rumored to have no end. “You can't be serious. It actually exists” I muttered, “forged from the bones of everyone who failed to pass,” Cain’s voice turned solemn, “Aria, shut your eyes,”

Naomi followed her gaze. A large stone bridge crossed the water several hundred meters away. Old. Historic. One of the oldest structures in the city. The letter hadn't specified which bridge. But somehow both of them knew. It was that one. They started walking. The sky darkened further. Wind swept across the river. The first drops of rain began falling. Small. Scattered. A warning. Not yet the storm itself. As they approached the bridge, Ama felt something strange. A faint pressure.
