Into Darkness We Go- Up Above and Down Below — Laura Hughes

The surface worlds have been destroyed and evil is in control of them. All the good souls are hidden underground, chased there by horrible monsters that killed their friends and family members as they watched. Traumatized, they wait for someone to come and rescue them. Out of the seven worlds, only two are ware that the Keepers exist. The Keepers have to walk into uncertain situations with panicked survivors, while Sara, Thomas and James, still trapped in the Afterworld, continue to search for the objects that are the key to Braccus's downfall. These three bright souls wander in the darkest part of the Afterworld, amongst the ugliest thoughts ever let loose from Braccus's mind, fighting to make their way back from death to rescue the living.
