The group woke up early. Traveling away from their hut, they came across a stone path, so they followed it. Lukas and Axel glared at each other as they walked but Axel moved faster. Lukas stopped in his tracks.

"You okay?" I asked him.

"It was a rough night" he responded.

"It happens...we were all tired... I'm just glad you're okay" I told Lukas.

"Thanks for being so cool about it" he said.

"Coolio" I smiled and he smiled back. We caught up with everyone else.

"Hey! There's something over that way!" Lukas had climbed a hill and pointed over to my right. I saw a little bit of what he was talking about.

"Let's get a closer look" I said. We walked up to a wall with hanging vines which we climbed, we then saw a run down temple "we should head in, but lets be careful."

"What is this place?" Axel asked as everyone approached the temple.

"That's what we're trying to figure out" Olivia told him.

"It's the temple of the Order of the Stone" Lukas told them.

"Lukas, are you sure?" Olivia asked and I pulled out the amulet. The same exact design.

"He's right, look" I said, holding the amulet up high. We walked in.

"Holy crap... " Axel gaped.

"You think they're in there?" Olivia asked.

"Let's go in and find out" Axel said.

"Lets just all be careful" I told them.

"Okay" Olivia replied.

"If you spot anything, call it out, we don't have a lot of time" I said.

"Isn't it weird how dispensers are carved to look like spooky little faces? What do you dispense little guy?" Axel asked.

"I get the feeling that we really don't want to find out" Olivia replied. A noise echoed through the halls.

"Get behind me" I commanded and everyone obeyed. Reuben ran forward, squealing in terror. I gasped as he ran across some pressure plates, making a wall at their only entrance. They followed Reuben to the place he was as noises echoed through the halls.

"Oh come on dispenser faces! I thought we were friends" Axel said.

"Run!" I exclaimed a second before arrows began firing out at us. We finally made it to a spot where there was no arrows. We were trapped!

"We activated the dispensers with those pressure plates, maybe if we press them again they will stop shooting out arrows" Lukas said.

"Everyone, empty your pockets!" I exclaimed. Everyone pulled out their supplies. String, sticks, feathers, flint and steel. I grabbed the supplies and walked over to a crafting table that was there and used the supplies to create a bow. I then crafted a arrow and walked away from the table so I was even with one of the pressure plates. I drew the string and then, let go, letting the arrow fly, hitting the pressure plate. I smiled and we all continued forward, finding a room that looked strikingly similar to Ivor's basement. I walked through the rows of bookshelves to find what looked to be an enchanting table. I began to read the book.
