"Sora POV"
Sora, Xav and Seiji walked through the first pathway
Seiji and Sora walked on the left side and Xav walked on the right
Sora: don't you wanna come to this side?
Xav if something comes up behind us I can run away faster
Sora: right
Xav: that water is disgusting
Seiji: it looks like a mix between shit and vomit
Sora: ugh can you guys stop complaining and keep moving we need to get out of here
Xav: you heard the lady
They kept pushing on periodically looking back to make sure nothing was following them
Seiji: stop
They all stopped walkingÂ
Seiji: do you hear that
Loud stomping footsteps slowly got louder and closer
Once the creature saw them it roared
RAAAAAAAAAAGH
Xav: RUN TO THE OTHER PATH
The thing was about 10 feet tall It had the ears of a bat 6 eyes 3 on each side no nose. It had big feet huge muscles and was wearing a black outfit
They quickly sprinted to the other path and kept running and running
"Zenez POV"
They entered the dark cave and weren't able to see anything
Zenez: do one of you guys have a light
A torch lit up
Aku: nice job Magi
Magi: huh? That wasn't me
All 3 looked back and saw the same creature Sora, Xav and Seiji saw except smaller only about 5'9 and it had the body type of a regular human
It screeched at them and they shot at it but bullets didn't even affect it
Zenez: RUN
They all sprinted through the cave and saw 2 paths
Aku: LEFT JUST GO LEFT
Zenez, Aku and Magi all went through the left path with the creature still chasing them
They found themselves in another cave with a blue crystals shining and lighting up the room
Zenez: how'd you know to go left?
Aku: I saw rocks blocking the right path
Zenez: good sight, I think we lost it too
Sora, Xav and Seiji came running into the room with Zenez, Aku and Magi out of breath
Zenez: Sora
Sora: Zenez
They both ran to each other and hugged
Zenez: I'm glad your safe, did you see Ku & Ko?
Sora: no I was hoping you guys did
Xav: we gotta get out of here man this shit is fucked
Aku: I know, we saw a creature that had 6 eyes no nose and looked kinda human
Sora: same with us but it was HUGE and it wouldn't even flinch to bullets
Zenez: same with ours
"Ku POV"
Ku: KEEP RUNNING
The creature they were running from had an oval shaped head 6 eyes 3 on each side no nose 3 long clawed feet bat wings and a spine nearly popping out of it's back
They smashed through a door leading to the room that Zenez and everyone else was in
Aku: I guess we're all here now
The Huge monster the small one and the flying one bursted through each side
Seiji didn't waste a second and chopped the small ones head off
Xav: I guess blades work but guns don't
Zenez: GRAB SHARDS OFF THE GROUND
They grabbed shards off the ground
Zenez, Xav and Seiji charged the big guy while Sora, Magi, Aku, Ku and Ko focused on the flying one
Zenez slashed the giants Achilles and Xav jumped and cut into it's back
Seiji finished it off by ramming the blade into it's skull
Sora threw a shard as hard as she could and it went straight into the flying ones head
Zenez: everyone alright?
Magi: I think so
Sora: yeah, we're all good. Out of breath but fine
Xav: we have a problem
Zenez: what is it
Seiji: 2 paths
Zenez looked at his group
Some were bleeding from various cuts and scratches and they were all equally exhausted and sweaty
Zenez: Alright, I'll go through one path and make my way back. If it's not safe we'll go through the other one
Sora: I'll come with you
Zenez: no your clearly exhausted
Sora: same can be said about you
Zenez: stop
Sora: I'm not letting you go alone
Zenez: your staying here. Hey Xav
Xav: yeah?
Zenez: would you mind trading me that AR for a few minutes?
Xav: sure just give me that Pistol so I have something
Zenez and Xav swapped weapons
Zenez: I'll be right back
As he was walking there looked to be charred bodies and shit everywhere
Zenez: Jesus christ imagine having sex on this
He chuckled
Zenez: eh whatever very few people will get the joke anyway
Zenez slowly made his way up the rocks until he saw a pool
When he walked down a man tried to tackle him
Zenez grabbed his back and slammed him on the ground when the man got up Zenez punched him in the face and grabbed him and pulled him towards the pool
He dunked the man's head in the pool and kept him there
The man tried kicking and Punching but was no match
Zenez drowned the man
RUMBLE
The ground shook and rocks started falling
Zenez: I gotta go back this has to be the right path
He ran back down the rocks to try and get the rest of the group and run but the rocks fell blocking him from getting back
Zenez: Shit, hopefully they're ok
"Xav POV"
Xav: anyone with me?
Sora: I'm right here
Magi: I'm here
Ko: me too
Xav: alright let's go I see an exit
Magi: I can't just leave Aku
Ko: and I can't just leave my brother Ku either
Sora: and what about Zenez?
Xav: look we need to move, this place is about to cave in on us I'm sure they're fine
Magi: whatever, the rest better be alright
"Ku POV"
Ku: hello?
Aku: right here
Seiji: I'm not sitting here any longer than we have to let's walk up there
Ku: but what about everyone else?
Seiji: they made it this far right?
Aku: Magi better be alright
Seiji: she is, let's just move
They made they're way up to the sunlight and got out
"Shinjuku Granbell Hotel"
Sora paced around worried about Zenez
Magi: I'm sure he's alright Zenez has gone through much worse
Sora: I just... I can't stop worrying
Xav: I don't know him but he's definitely a tough person it's gonna take more than a few rocks to take him out
Ko: he kicked my ass with ease he's fine
Sora: aren't you guys worried about your friends?
Magi: of course I'm worried about Aku but I know he's fine
Ko: same with Ku but he'll be alright
Just then Aku, Ku, and Seiji walked up
Aku: Magi
Magi: oh thank god
They hugged each other and kissed
Ku and Ko hugged each other also
Aku: where's Zenez?
Sora: he's not here
Seiji came to a frightening realization
Seiji: what if that was the wrong path
Sora started hyperventilating
Magi: nice job asshole you scared her even more
Magi went over to comfort Sora
Aku: not cool man
Seiji: I'm being realistic if that was the right path he should've gotten here first
Sora started hyperventilating to the point of tears
Aku: SEIJI SHUT THE FUCK UP
Zenez: can all of you relax for a second my head hurts
Sora ran over and hugged Zenez tightly
Zenez: it's alright Sora I'm fine
Aku: your bleeding what happened?
Zenez: Seiji was right, it was the wrong path
Xav: then how'd you make it out?
Zenez: I used the AR and shot weak points on the rocks until a small opening came up. Some rocks hit me and one scraped my arm but overall I'm fine
Sora finnaly let go
Sora: you can't scare me like that
Zenez: right... sorry. I'm glad your ok though
Aku: we should probably take showers
Zenez: your right
Xav: actually I'm gonna head out
Seiji: same, I need to get out of Japan ASAP I'm sure we'll work together again
Ku: same with me and Ko were at another hotel
Zenez: where are you gonna go Xav?
Xav: back to Amercia I hope to see you guys again
Zenez: take care
Xav: you too
Later that night Sora was practically sleeping on Zenez
Zenez: Sora
Sora: yeah?
Zenez: you don't need to worry about me so much
Sora: I know. I just can't help it... sorry
Zenez: don't be. Your the only person that makes me feel needed
Sora smiled and fell asleep
