Decided to release this a day early. The Teigu that Akira will obtain hasn't been finalized, but I sorta have what I want to do. Again, you all are still free to suggest ideas for what the Teigu to be.

I will state that the weapon of choice is a scythe. So, if you have an idea of what you wish the Teigu could be, feel free to comment.

Inside the tomb, the Elite Seven had infiltrated the Gravekeeper's hideout. Their mission, to rescue the assassin team that was first sent to investigate and at the same time, retrieve the Teigu and the treasure that lied within.

Poney was currently hoping off the sides of spikes and in between it's gaps, carefully avoiding them. Akira and Akame were paired up together, dodging each falling contraptions as they would slam down into the ground before rising back up again. Najasho, Gozuki, and Green were catching up to the three.

Akame: "There're more of these traps than our information told us about."

Akira: "The information didn't seem to be wrong, though."

Poney: (laughs gleefully) "But it's kind of fun!"

Gozuki: "Can you still say it's fun after looking at that?"

Poney looked confused at her adopted father, then looking forward. In front of her were giant scorpions, obviously heading towards them with the intent to kill. This causes her to freak out.

Poney: "Gyah! So gross!"

Najasho: "Get back, shrimp."

The girl was alarmed by her team leader, Najasho quickly unsheathing his Water Dragon Sword and swiftly cutting them down. Akira looks to the side, seeing a Gravekeeper come crawling down from the side. It then shoots it's tongue forward, aiming to hit Akame. But it was quickly stopped by Green's whip, the Gravekeeper looking alarmed.

Green: "I knew someone would be using camouflage. It's my duty to watch out for that. Akira, if you would."

Quickly taking out Prometheus, Akira fires off a shot. Using it's special ability, Akira controls the bullet and curves it around Green, the bullet entering the Gravekeeper's head, right between the eyes.

The group then halted. The ground and the ceiling started to shake, small amounts of dust and rock falling from above. 

Gozuki: (grin) "Look at this heated reception we're getting. Don't let your guard down, guys."

Akame: "That rumbling sound..."

Green: "I've got a bad feeling about this..."

Then, a giant ball then starts to roll towards them. This causes to turn the other way and began to run away from it.

Gozuki: "All we can do is run to escape it."

Poney: "Chief, can't you slice that thing up!?"

Najasho: "So long as there's no mechanism to it."

Poney: "Akira, can't you bring up some ice wall to stop it!?"

Akira: "I don't think the ice will be strong enough to stop it."

Poney: "Why are our two strongest useless!?"

Green: "It's times like this it hurts not to have Guy and his strength."

With Guy

The burly young man of the Elite Seven was still currently burrowing through the tomb. He wasn't sure how long he was going to be digging.

Guy: (thoughts) 'Where am I now...? I'm sure I've dug pretty deep into the center of the tomb. But either way, I'm going to capture their leader's head to take home as the grand prize.'
