What was I going to do now? I had missed my chance to run past Alexio. I had slowed down and wasn't moving fast enough. And any moment now, he would be able to snatch me up off of the moving bridge. I had gotten far too distracted with our conversation and the fact that Alexio, who had no reason to lie to me, said that he had not sent the two hell monsters after me.
I think I had known all along, or at least suspected all along, that Hekate had something to do with this. If Alexio knew where I had been, if he knew where to find us, then he would have been waiting for me and the others when we exited the tunnel. Instead, he happily ran past me and Rudy and went straight to the door in the distance.
"Alexio, I did not send that beast, nor did I summon it at all. This beast was actually sent by the Goddess Hekate." I tried to explain it to him as I slowed down, intent on talking to him for at least a second. "And that thing is going to be here any moment now."
