"ARGH! Why are these things always in caves?" Ray complained. "Cool! You went on other artifacts hunting?" Henry said. "No." Ray said putting his hands on his hips. "Can I leave?" Charlotte whined. "NO!" Ray and Henry said. They all walked towards the cave. "The cave is dark." Henry said. "I know! That is why I brought a match." Ray said as he lit up a match but it dimmed out immediately. "Great going, Ray." Charlotte said. "Wait I think there is a torch!" Henry said pointing at something in the dark. He dragged Ray to the torches and used his hand to pound on the torch. "Henry, it is a torch not a lightbulb!" Charlotte said. Suddenly the torches lit up. "This cave must be magical." Ray said as he stared in awe. Charlotte rolled her eyes and pushed the boys ahead. They walked and walked until they saw a small mountain. "A mountain in a cave? That's odd." Charlotte said walking towards. "Charlotte, NO!" Henry shouted. Charlotte was staring at the mountain when smoke shot up. Ray dragged Charlotte to where they were standing and stared at it some more. "The only way to go past it is to walk on it." Henry said walking forward. "Wait! Henry, come back. Watch when I throw this stone." Ray said. He threw a small stone on the mountain and lava spewed out. "It's a volcano and it might erupt." Charlotte said. "We have to stop it or something bad happens like, the thieves knowing where we are!" Ray said. "Or worse! It can kill us!" Henry exclaimed. "Oh, it can kill you two. I'm indestructible." Ray said. "RAY!" Charlotte and Henry exclaimed. "Ok, ok. Charlotte, any ideas?" Ray said. "We can block the hole with rocks." Charlotte suggested. "We can get killed." Henry reminded. "True. Ray, get to work!" Charlotte ordered. Ray sighed and began piling rocks in the hole. When Ray was done, Charlotte threw another rock on the volcano and only drops of lava came out. They held on to the sides and tiptoed. They all made it. "Uh oh! I think the volcano is about to erupt!" Henry said pointing at lava spewing out. "What should we do?" Charlotte asked. "RUN!!" Ray said and they ran. They came across two tunnels. They all ran to the right one and hid in the dead end. More lava spewed out and began going to the right tunnel. Will they survive?
