"Its been too long." Ross said.
"We can't find her, she's not here. We don't even know if she's still on level 6."
"I know, but I don't wanna take that chance. If she's still here-"
"Ross, we're risking a lot to be here." I told him.
"Look, I don't like the idea of leaving her behind either, but we can't wait here anymore.""He's right."
Ross and I looked up at the man in front of us. We could tell right away he was an elf.
"What the hell?" Ross stood up, wielding his sword around.
"I pose no threat. Only a message from your leader."
He handed us a folded up paper addressed to us.
Ross snatched it and opened it up violently."Ross and Lucas.
I need you to move on without me for now.
I was injured in a fight and now I need to
stay put for a while.
Next week I'll meet up with you on level 13
as planned. I'll be there.
The elf prince has arranged for you guys
a place to rest on level 8, he also has supplied us with
new weapons.
I'll see you soon."
"And why should I believe this?" I asked the elf.
"Don't believe me, trust her." He smiled.
"And we're just supposed to go along with this?" Ross asked.
"If you wish, if not. You can stay."
I looked at Ross and we agreed.
"Lets get going."
