Chapter 2 - The ring

The man looked aged, maybe 70? 60? he smiles, looking at him, I notice something, two of his front teeth are sharper then a normal human, he looked to have a claw like scratch on his right cheek, despite his white eyes, but he didn't seem to be blind in any way, after all he was looking straight at the human.

The human speaks saying "no problem" I just kinda stand observing them. Once the stranger helps up the mysterious old man, and the man brushes himself off, I speak up "so how are we gonna get out of here?" I say with a whisper. The stranger replies "probably the door" he says with a flat tone. "oh" feeling like a idiot.

The stranger walks to the door and peaks through it checking for people. I wait for a response for him, he puts up 1 finger. Good, I think to myself. The stranger grabs his knife and walks out quietly. All I could do is listen as the sound of screaming, I peak outside only to see the stranger holding his foot in pain and screaming like his life depends on the noise as a gaurd stares in confusion, the noise dies down within 10 seconds. Surprisingly the ear bleeding noise attracts no one, he takes out the nail and the old man stops the stranger from getting hit by tackling the gaurd, I walk out from the room and while the gaurd was down I kick him in the face.

The old guy tackles the gaurd again but through a door, in that room was 2 guys giving eachother hand jobs. we kinda just stand there awkwardly, the old guy locks the gaurd in the room. On the other side the gaurd can be heard pounding on the door and shouting to be let out. The young man gets off the floor sluggishly.

"Which way do we go now?" The young man asks, "I think we should go outside" I say with sarcasm.

"Great thinking, Sherlock" The stranger says and we begin to walk down the corridor. I am confused about the young man's comment, Who's Sherlock?, I think to myself.

The corridor started to get brighter, and brighter, and my skin started to have a reaction to the light. "Is this sun?" I ask as we get closer, nobody answered, well it was a dumb now that I think about it. Soon we entered a battle arena. I shut my eyes tightly as the sound of cheering filled my ears.

I rub my eyes and look around only to see a huge hideous creature covered in blood, I feel fear build up inside me, and I freeze. I couldn't move, the sun, the sounds, the monster, it was all so overwhelming. I snap out of it once I hear the sound of the doors shutting behind us. "Great, just great" I mumble to myself. A few weapons where thrown and they land at our feet, I pick up a bow and a few arrow, the others pick their wepons.

"So, we are really about to fight a giant monster? This is how this day is gonna go." I say in question, all I got for a reply from them was a "yep" and a "why not?" before I could reply we all turned towards the monster, and the stranger leads the charge while I stay behind and aim.
