Later turned out to be days later, but productive days: Evan had gotten his own artifact sorted out into a runiced belt, he'd helped a trainee out, and his body had healed enough from the last run and was ready to be put through the wringer again. He'd brought the book that had started all of this, but it was tucked inside a pocket; he knew generally where the portal was, and that would be enough. "We're close," he told Sasha more confidently than he felt. He thought he recognized that stand of trees, but the portal was in a forest and there were lots of trees. He let instinct lead the way, and sure enough, the shimmering air that indicated the presence of a portal was right where he remembered it. "Here we are," he said. "Walk through it and keep walking until you reach the other side. I don't know what'll happen if you stop halfway through, so...don't." He winked at her before stepping through and disappearing.

Sasha listened to Evan and didn't stop halfway through only because he'd been there before -- besides, stopping halfway through the portal didn't sound like the best idea, and Evan seemed more than a little confident that they'd end up i nthe right place. She didn't stop moving until she caught sight of him on the other side, and only then did she offer a rather large, pleased smile. "Nicely done," she purred softly, slipping past him to glance around. "What next?"

"Next," Evan said, reaching out to snag Sasha around the waist to keep her from getting too far ahead, "we hope really hard nothing's waiting for us at the entrance. I'll take point." Evan - 19 stam Sasha - 6 stam

Sasha did not put up a fight when Evan held her back. "I think it's hot when you get all bossy with me, Marine." There was a quick debate on whether or not she should attempt to bite him anywhere she could reach, but she would behave. For now.

"Yeah?" Evan murmured into Sasha's ear, his arm still tight around her. "Stick close. If something pops out of the walls, you get to the side and hold your position and let me do what I do best. And you can consider that an order." He dipped his head to press a kiss to her neck before releasing her and heading into the temple, on alert for anything that might be waiting for them.

Sasha bared her teeth in something that was not quite a grin as she watched him move ahead, but it didn't take long for her attention to move to their surroundings. It was beautiful and bright, almost pure. It was also quiet, eerily so. "Yes, sir," her voice echoed throughout the cavernous marble room. "Do you see anything yet?"

He liked the sound of that. "Nothing yet," Evan replied, his voice softer than Sasha's had been. "Think we're in the clear--for now. But the worst is yet to come." They came upon it soon enough: a pool of water where the floor should be, with no way across but swimming or wading and God knew what at the bottom. "Okay, we're gonna have to swim across. If you get stuck, don't panic, don't thrash around; you'll only wear yourself out. Take it slow and easy," he advised, demonstrating as he picked his way across the pool and made it to the other side. Stamina - 18

Sasha only watched Evan for a moment before wading into the murky water herself. At first it seemed as though all was going well -- and then she found herself incredibly stuck. It was almost as though something had latched onto her ankle in an attempt to pull her under. She did not panic, but she did struggle to free herself, "You make everything look so easy," she complained lightly, still moving through the pool. Stamina: 3

Suddenly she was under the water and the vile stuff was in her mouth, her throat, her nose. When she finally broke the surface, Sasha did not appear to be much closer to where Evan stood.

And then there was blackness as the mud dragged her under, and no matter how she struggled there was no way that Sasha could break free.

Fortunately, Evan had stuck around for Sasha like he hadn't for Lex to make sure she got across okay. When he saw her go beneath the water, he was there to keep her from drowning and pendant them out of there so she could recover.

Evan kept one eye on Sasha to make sure she was recovering okay. The other was on the movement ahead of them. "Incoming," he warned. "Keep back, I've got this."

Sasha fought the urge to roll her eyes and instead focused on Evan's hot body.

Evan didn't notice either of those things because he was too busy killing the monster so it didn't kill them.

It wasn't that he didn't think Sasha could take one of these all on her own; he just liked showing off for her.
