"Then you better stay behind me. Because if you get hurt we're both going home." He stamped anxiously to get his point across.

"Fine. Just take care." He was moving again, careful to stay next to her and ready to strike if something attacked.

Zukon stopped in front of the entrance to a large cave. "It had to be a dark cave...why not a light, airy one..."

"Because they don't hold innocent girls captive in light, airy caves..." Lucky said darkly.

He nodded, "You're right..." He slipped the bag from around his neck and handed it to her. "You'll still take this right?"

Zukon shifted, moving to inspect the entrances to the other tunnels. "Listen...this one sounds like it's unnaturally quiet..." The cave he indicated went down further in the earth, not something that made him any easier with the task.

"It's a cave, I know...but usually there are some sounds, like water dripping or the earth groaning softly...I don't hear anything, do you?"
