Brady and Mikayla both slowly walked into the cave, Brady first, Mikayla following right behind him. They both were on high alert, for they had never seen this cave before. It was dark and mysterious, which on Kinkow, was never a good thing. As the duo walked into the cave, Brady's ring glowed a bright white for a moment before all of the torches on the walls lit up, bathing the cave in a yellow glow. Shadows danced off the walls where the light didn't reach.

Brady glanced around the now lit cave, finding what looked like Tarantula People markings all over the walls as well as a solid black altar with a red jewel on it in the middle of the room. There was Tarantula markings on the altar as well, these being engraved in the stone. Brady didn't understand the markings, so he didn't know what they meant. However, Mikayla had learned the language of the Tarantula People, this being a requirement for a guard, and as she began to translate the words in her head, she began to realize where she and Brady were, and what they had found.

"Brady, I'm not sure if we should be in here." Mikayla's voice broke the unsettling silence that had taken over when the two entered the cave. Brady turned to his girlfriend, confused by the urgent tone of her voice. "Mikayla, what's going on? What do these markings mean?" Brady walked over to the black stone altar as he said this.

"Brady, this is the altar of the Dark Side, and I mean the actual Dark Side." Mikayla spoke with fear evident in her voice, this being rare for the guard girl. "Boomer, Boz, and I defeated the Dark Side though, right?" Brady's voice was unsure, as if he was beginning to doubt his own words.

Mikayla stared at her boyfriend for a moment as she racked her brain. "No, the Dark Side wasn't entirely destroyed. There is still some left. It still holds a part of the island." Brady nodded, these words confirming his fears.

"It can't grow any bigger though, right? I mean, it's not like Kalaki or King Blackfire will come back. They were defeated. They can't come back, can they?" Mikayla could only nod her head. She knew that they could come back, and if they were strong enough, they would come back. She didn't believe that this was the current case though. This had to be something else. After all, it takes time to gain power unless it is given to you, and there wasn't a way to create enough power for any of the evil villains of the past to return.

Even though Mikayla knew these words were true, she was still scared. The Dark Side could still bring back some evil mad man, and by what the symbols in this cave translated to, it seemed like something was coming soon, and it was going to be bad.

While Mikayla had been trying to figure out what was going on, Brady had begun to explore the cave more. As he reached out to touch one of the symbols on the altar, Mikayla snapped out of her thoughts just in time to see what he was doing. Having translated what the altar said minutes before, she realized that Brady couldn't touch it without something bad happening. However, as she called out a warning, she was too late.

"Brady don't-" Brady's fingertips had barely brushed over one of the symbols before the whole altar lit up, the symbols glowing a bright white. The jewel on the altar lit up a bright red as well. The light then quickly spread to the floor before it reached the walls, all of the symbols and markings bursting into light. The symbols then began to swirl around on the wall before they seemed to leap off the wall and form and tornado of light around Brady and Mikayla, who in the few moments had quickly grasped onto each other, Brady trying to shield Mikayla from anything that might bring harm their way.

The symbols continued to move until they slowly closed in on the altar, spinning past Brady and Mikayla, leaving the duo unscathed. The couple could only watch as the hurricane of symbols surrounded the altar before closing in on it and settling down. Everything grew quiet. The couple didn't relax though. They could feel a strange wave of dark energy in the room, pulling them towards the altar. A dark, chilling laughter echoed through the room, startling the two warriors while chilling them to the bone. The room became cold, and it felt as if the air was being sucked out of it and replaced with a frozen air. Brady and Mikayla could hardly breathe because when they did, it felt like they were trying to breathe in a thousand sharp icicles, each one pricking their throats.
