Me, Nate, father and Elena walked into a secret cave which was hidden quite well and the only way to open it was by turning four statues into the right direction and thankfully the help is in Sir Francis book which helped Nate open it. We all walked one behind the other and headed down the staircases which another room, filled with some old shelves with some books on it and some kind of picture, looks like a ship to me.

Well, this room seem's like another library but with fewer books which caused my father to start complaining, we all looked around to try and find an exit but there isn't any we can see, there properly is one hidden somewhere.

"Huh, What now?" Elena asks as she comes back to where the rest of us stood. Nate walks away and looks at something on one of the walls, "Y'know this looks familiar" and he starts turning the handle and went to the other one on the other wall. Once he did that we could hear something, sounds to me like clogs moving.

After a few moments, it finally opened revealing another cave, which goes deeper. Once the door opened completely and we all look inside and Nate decides to states. "Well, this looks promising", we watch as Nate slowly moves forward and taking my father's touch with him.

He shined the light into the entrance before turning to us three. "Okay, you three sit tight, I'm going to check this out" but before he could go me and Elena refused to let him go alone but he went anyway and not on his own I'm going with him to his disclaim and he did try and stop me but he couldn't. Once my mind has been made up, it's made up.

"you two be careful," Elena says to us and Nate decide to make a smart remark causing him to smack his head on the door causing me to laugh slightly, unfortunately, he heard and glared at me before he walked through the door which closed after him. We walked down the stairs, making sure I send Nate first.

"Okay. Land of the dead. Here we go".

I follow after Nate through the dark cave, I decide to take my gun out just in case something decide to attack us, hopefully, it doesn't happen as I properly won't have time to shot as I'll be already dead from a heart attack.

Just getting to a certain part had a lot of climbing, just imagine how much we'll have to do once we get out of here, well that's if we get out of here and guess who else is here, yeah you know, my favorite people in the world, NOT.

Another load of men came out of nowhere and started shooting us, one of them had the laser so we had to take him out first our we'll be dead, I hide behind a pillar near to the laser guy whilst Nate hide behind a large box where he found a gun, I quickly turn and aim my gun and started firing at the man with the laser who wasn't alive for long as I made sure to aim at his head. I killed two more guys before I ran out of bullets and there is one more man shooting at me so I ran towards him, kicking him in the stomach, grabbing his head and twisted his neck, breaking it instantly.

I walk back to Nate who had opened the barred door on the stairs, I ran over picking up one of the men's gun and quickly ran through the door, just in case you had a certain amount of time to get through and it didn't.

We jog up the really steep stairs just for us to run into more men but they didn't notice us so we ran behind a long wooden seat, the seats you would find in a church and this room looks like an old church. I aim my pistol and one of the guys but before I shoot him and I turn to Nate and ask "You ready?"

"Ready?" Nate replied just as I shoot the man in the head causing the others to react and start shooting.

------------------------------------

After killing the men and solving another puzzle which was pretty easy as there is two of us we finally get through another secret passage, by the door of the secret entrance is a massive hole which took us even deeper underground, creeping me out more by the second.

"We got all the clues, right here," Nate said to himself as we both climbed down the ladder. "We can do this kid. How the hell does he think he's gonna get that statue outta here, anyway?" I roll my eyes before I jump off the ladder, now standing next to Nate but that didn't last long as I pushed him forward, I'm definitely not going first.

And thank god for that as more men started shooting at us,

"where do these men come from they are literally everywhere" I state and quickly started shooting as Nate laughs and hides behind the wall over from me. I come out from where I was hiding, only for a man to jump out and he fell to the floor unconscious because instead of shooting him, I smacked him in the head with my gun but I did shot him and killed him quick.

"How do these men even get down here?" I ask Nate as we both carry on moving forward. "I have no idea" Nate replies just before we separate and hide behind two pillars and shot the last few men. I went over to the men on my side and picked up the guns and bullets and Nathan did the same on his side before heading off to climb a little bit more.

---------------------------(Sorry about the skip)----------------------------

"This is completely unacceptable" We hear as we move forward through the tower we had reached from all the climbing. The voice didn't come from this floor but the one above.

"What do you expect from me, Roman? My men are getting massacred"

"I find that hard to believe that one man and one girl could wipe out your entire crew" I nudged Nate as I knew who they were talking about, it's obvious that they are talking about me and Nate. "It's not just Drake and that girl! goddamn it! I'm telling you this island is cursed!" The man who sounded like Eddy shouts but before he could say anymore he was cut off by someone else who has a familiar voice but I just couldn't put my finger on it.

"Enough! Take your sorry mob and go."

"Wait... You can't cut me loose. You owe me a share of the gold!"

"Your share, Eddy, was contingent upon you doing what I required. You assured that Drake and Sullivan's daughter was captured, and the island secure"

"Oh, this is bullshit, Roman, and you know it!" Eddy shouts at Roman, I look over to Nate as he looks down to me with a smirk before he wraps his arm around my shoulder, pulling me to him. Now my arms wrap around his waist as we carry on listening to the men's conversation which I could is almost to an end.

"We're done here, Mr. Raja" the man who we know is Gabriel, throughs his cigarette down, almost hitting Nate but thankfully we were hiding so he couldn't have seen us.

"Tai kamu! Mati aja lo! Sialan!" Eddy shouts and properly walking away as the last part of his sentence is more quite.

"Remind me again why you employed that superstitious idiot?" Gabriel asks to someone, properly Navarro. His question made me chuckle as Gabriel is right about him being a superstitious idiot.

"You wanted someone cheap"

"Well, you get what you pay for, I suppose. And what about you, Navarro?" I look up to Nate, giving him a weird look, it seems like he's getting rid of Navarro properly so he can have the possible gold to himself.

"Are you worth what I'm paying you?"

"The vaults here. I'm sure of it if Sullivan can be trusted-" I can't believe he actually believes my father. "Which he can't" Gabriel replies at least he knows not to trust him.

"Look, he knows we'll kill him if he's lying"

"Don't be stupid, he knows we'll kill him once we find the treasure. He has no incentive, to tell the truth. Really, Navarro, sometimes I think you left your brains back in the slum where I found you"

"I just need a little more time," Navarro says and Gabriel seems to have walked away a bit as his footsteps got closer. "Chasing this treasure of yours is providing go be more trouble than it's properly worth,"

"I assure you, El Dorado is worth more than you can possibly imagine,"

"It had better be."

--------------------------------------------

Sorry, this chapter is a bit boring, it's basically just about Gabriel and Navarro, hopefully, the next chapter will be more entertaining.
