As we both walk deeper, more of the figures begin to follow us from all sides. We're soon circled by the mysterious creatures and with no way out, we continue forward. Suddenly a wave of recognition washes over me and I get sick to my stomach. They're leading us straight to the valley below. Indigo calmly whispers to me,
"We have to get out of here."
"Why?! What's wrong?! What are they?! Where are they taking us?!" I whisper very loudly.
"Those creatures are people from the valley bellow! They are taking us to the valley bellow!" She whispers even louder.
"I don't understand, is that a bad thing?!" I quietly scream.
"First they are going to bind us together, lower us into a pit and EAT US!" Hisses Indigo.

One of the creatures comes into the light. It is a fowl rotting corpse of small size. It reeks of dead animals and dung. It has needle sharp teeth. It's eyes are empty and lifeless. I can hear it's horrible sounding shrieks and I can smell it's terrible breath. In one hand it holds some sort of ancient blowdart, while it's other hand bears it's nasty claws. Eventually, we're both taken directly in front of a vast pile of bones and flesh-picked skeletons. Me and Indigo widen our eyes in terror.

One of the creature shrieks something in it's own language. The creatures hold the blow darts in their mouths ready to fire in case we try any funny business. They force us forward. Immediately, one of the undead creatures swings on a vine toward me and Indigo and in a split second, the vine is completely wrapped around us.
"We're going to die" I say.
"Not if I can do anything about it!" Replies Indigo, but before she can do anything, we're hoisted onto a spit and carried toward an active volcano!

It isn't long before, we're at the very top of the volcano. The crowd of people from the valley bellow start chanting a taunting song which I can't understand because it's in a different language. Soon the chanting becomes louder and LOUDER and LOUDER! Until the chanting comes to an immediate halt. Indigo and I are casted into volcano!
