The girls jumped down the hole and found themselves in the underground tunnel, with the quarry right on the other side of the door. The problem is there's already destruction in the tunnels and plants growing inside. No dead bodies but there were bullet holes in the walls. And the exit of the tunnel was caved in from the roof. Isaac was alive and well.
Tanisha: Oh, hell. I hope to God we don't become victims of a cave-in.
Isaac: That would be ironic.
Tanisha: Why? Are you saying this tunnel has some history with cave-ins?!
Felicia: My Isaac learned that a group of prisoners got trapped in a cave in the old quarry in 1912, and the cops left them to die. That history was really dark and hardly anything scares my baby.
Isaac: Hey. Do you hear voices?
Tanisha: What are you talking about?
Isaac: Just shut up for a minute!
There was a faint sound of people coming somewhere from the tunnel. But Isaac found out that the voices were actually coming from his walkie-talkie. And it wasn't human, exactly. The voices sounded eerie and disembodied. They were the voices of ghosts.
Prisoner: Watch out!! Cave in!!
Prisoner 2: My legs!! Let me out! You've gotta help me!
Prisoner 3: You can't just leave us here!
Cop: They deserve it!
Cop 2: Aw, crap. You think anyone will care?
Cop: Fucking inmates. They're not worth the trouble, let them rot!
The voices stopped coming from the walkie-talkie. Nobody knew what happened and everyone was spooked by it. Suddenly Tanisha frowned because she remembered where she had heard this from.
Tanisha: Call me crazy but I think what we just heard was a Death whisper. Voices of the dead that speak to the living.
Felicia: But those voices didn't sound very recent. It sounded more like we were listening to that incident in 1912, the cops letting the prisoners rot in the cave-in. What's that about?
Isaac: It's this island, it's Hell. You heard it yourself, a lot of horrible things happened here after the island turned regular people into killers. Guess that explains why places like this are called the Dead Zone. But let's go, there's no time to lose!
So now everyone ran to the door and found themselves in the old quarry. Unlike the rest of the prison, the quarry still had technology from the 21st century. They even found crates of dynamite, giant cranes, and old generators to keep the lights on. Isaac grabbed a few dynamites just in case. Two minutes of running led them to a bridge that cuts over a dig site, but the bridge wasn't deployed. So Tanisha improvised by operating the crane to force the bridge down so that they could cross. Then came the loud roar of a demon, coming from the huge hut beside them.
