A Beginning Of Any Great Matter-Nathan Drake x OC

Chapter 16

After listening to the conversation me and Nate leaves, jumping over to a broken set of stairs before walking through another small corridor, I made sure my gun is out as I know more men are going to come sooner or later. We walked to another part of a room where there is a door which Nate opened by turning the lever.

Which opened to the outside of the building, we had to run through as the door, this time, had a timer and we both just got out in time as the door slammed shut. Nate and I split up as we had no idea where we were going, Nate went left to go behind the building whilst I went straight forward to find a large barred door but we couldn't get through.

I walk back over to Nate to see him climbing a wall, he looks over his shoulder and points over to where he got up, I jog over where Nate had pointed and I start climbing and jumping from different walls until I reached Nate who is standing on one of the broken windows above me.

Nate helps me up and we both jump down to see another unbarred door and a large, deep hole in the center of the floor but before we could have a look at the hole some more men starts shooting at us. I grab my small pistol and quickly start firing as I run behind one of the pillars whilst Nate did the same but grabbed his rifle.

It took quite some time to get rid of these guys well it took me some time to kill them but for Nate, it was obviously easy. We both leave from our positions and jumped over to where one of the dead guys lead, we both pick up his weapons and just as we were about to jump to the next one my father come through the walkie-talkie.

"Nate, Violet, you read me"

We both jump over, finally getting to the end as Nate replies. "Yeah. Sully, we're just going in circles, here."

"Well the girl and I have been reading some of the books down here and looks like there's some kind of secret gallery at the top of the church, can you two get there?"

Before Nate replies, he looks towards me and asks. "Do you think you can make it?" I smile at him before nodding my head. "We think so. Yeah," Nate replies.

"All right, give us a call if you find anything," My fathers says before he stops talking allowing us to find this gallery. We both walk into the room next to us which is almost destroyed completely, we had to jump across just to reach some broken stairs to get to a door. It didn't take long to find away from this part of the building as at a broken part of the wall there is a vine which we could climb up so we could get to the other side.

But before we could get to the vine we had to climb across and we both climb at the vine which is attached to another broken, shattered window. Once we both jump through the window some more men come out of nowhere and quickly started shooting at us, how do these guys even get up here?

I kneeled next to Nate who instead of shooting through a grenade at the men, blowing them up, killing them instantly. Thankfully there were only two guys and it help getting to the gallery a lot easy but I knew it wouldn't last long. We move to a wooden platform connect to a pillar and we both notice a patterned window.

"That's gotta be it," Nate says before he turns to me and told me to stay where I was which I surprisingly agreed as I do need a rest before the wound starts to hurt or bleed again so I sat against the wall and waited for Nate to call me over.

--------------------------(a bit of a skip)--------------------------

Once I get over to where Nate was, I could hear he talking to my father about the men sitting right on top of the treasure vault. This made me sign it had to be my father who sent them there.

"Oh, of all the goddamn luck-" before my father could finish what he was saying, I grab the walkie-talkie out of Nates hand and told him. "Look, we need a diversion to get them out of there."

"You got it, Vi" I hear my father say "One diversion, coming right up"

"And dad-"

"Yeah"

"Once they're gone, meet us in the mausoleum. But come through the catacombs - it's safer that way"

"Gotcha"

I stand to watch the guards walking around the area, I look over to Nate and ask. "Got any idea's how to get past these guys?" Nate looks over to me before shaking his head no.

But the first thing we needed to do is climb down off this building window, thankfully there is a way to climb down, I decide to send Nate first and I follow after him as there is a huge chance that Nate will get caught and I want to stay away from that.

Once we get down, we both run towards a box which had two different weapons on it, Nate grabs the Dragon sniper whilst I grab the ammo for my gun. Once Nate shoots the first bullet we got caught, a load of guys with different weapons started firing at us but we were behind cover and Nate is the only one who could do damage as they are too far away for my gun but for Nate's it will be a piece of cake.

We finally cleared out all the guys and let's just say it was a lot harder than expected as Nate sniper only had five bullets so we both had to shoot with pistols but they did a good job.

Nate and I walk into the building to be greeted by my father and Elena. "Hey," Nate and I say and Elena replied the same way whilst my father said something different. "I knew you two could do it, so what's next?"

"I don't know, I'm figuring it out as I go. This is definitely the right place, though...Wait a second, it's something to do with these symbols. Vi, can you help me with this?"

"Yeah, of course"

"Ok, go to the symbol with the arrows and turn them until the tips are facing up "

I walk up to the symbol he was on about and I start to turn it until the tips are facing the way Nate wanted too. "Man, Roman and Navarro really tore this place up." I hear my father said as Nate moves to the symbol of the shell and turns it so it's facing down. Whilst I finished the puzzle by turning the snake so it's the right way which made an entrance above the crown symbol.

"Looks, like we're in business" Nate laughs as we all approached the entrance. Nate and I remove the bones from the entrance so we could get through easier and without climbing on bones but Nate left one of the skulls and through it to my father. "Head up!"

My father caught the skull but threw it away. Nate climb through first, then me, then Elena but my father said outside of it. The three of us looks around as my father asks. "Whaddya make of it?"

"I dunno, could be a dead end," Nate says but Elena found something which could help us get through. "Wait, it looks like there might be a passage way this way"

But suddenly something started to happen just as my father starts to climb through. "Dad! Get outta the way".

"Huh?"

I quickly run over and pushed my father back where he stood and as I did so I shout "It's a trap!" The secret, stone door shut, shutting Nate, me and Elena on one side while my father stayed on the other side alone.

"Sullivan, are you okay? Sully!" Nate says into the walkie-talkie, waiting for my father to reply and as we waited I didn't notice I had been holding my breath until my father's voice come through.

"Yeah, yeah, fine. Still, in one piece, Vi knocked me on my ass, though"

"Yeah, well you better get back to the library," I say over Nate's shoulder and into the walkie-talkie so my father could hear. "We're gonna have to find another way outta here," Nate says just after me but before we went through the passage, Nate pulls me back by my arm and asks.

"Are you okay?"

"Yeah I'm fine, don't worry, these bandages are helping it heal faster" I reply and followed Elena down the passage, I'm starting to feel nervous as I have no idea what's here.
