"But that's the problem. Who would do such a thing and leave their valuables behind?" I answered, and told my friend to follow me. "It feels like we stumbled upon a trap...But Lara sent us here? Those villagers could also be the ones who trapped her. I don't know"
Before I could even process my thoughts, a shout echoed from a distance. That voice came from a girl around our age, but not in our group. It didn't come from Lara or someone we knew. That sound came from someone else, since my eardrums didn't recognize that tone.
And we assumed the voice came from the villagers outside, where my comrades searched the vicinity.
