Ciela growled and reluctantly followed me into the next room.

"Glad you could make it," this made her angrier.

This room had walls similar to the previous one. This was a small room and only had a single chest in the middle of the floor.

"Oooh," I open up the chest and pulled out a small key. "What the hell? Why's the chest so big?"

Ciela shakes her head at me as I open the door again. "Really, I mean, is a big treasure chest like that worth holding a small-ass key?" Now we're at the intersection of paths.

"Which one should we open?" Ciela lands on my shoulder. I shrug.

"Uhm, this is kinda hard... Do you remember which one I unlocked first last time?"

The fairy thought about it. When her face lit up I knew she had the answer.

"This one!" She flew over to it, I jogged behind her. I shoved the key in the lock. The lock, in response, twisted then fell on my foot. The chains magically disappeared unlike the growing pain in my foot.

"Bloody hell!!" I hold my foot ad hop around. Ciela started laughing at me. I ignored her. I limped through the door, seeing an ugly blue...thing pacing slowly, carrying a sword.

"What the hell is that?" I ask in a low whisper, but not low enough; the thing saw me and charges. I didn't wait for Ciela to tell me to bring out my sword. I swung at the best, which made him stumble then tumble off the edge of the path. He screamed as he fell into oblivion. After three seconds or so, there was a splat and the rattling of his sword hitting the ground...if there was ground down there.

"Ouch..." Ciela says.

"Moving on," I put up my sword, walking forward.

I followed the path up some stairs where a larger chest was. Without me noticing a huge spider made contact with the ground.

I opened up the chest and pulled out another silver key and my bow and arrow.

"Sweet, we found it--"

"LOOK!!" Ciela screams. I whip around. I can say that was the first time I had ever been that close to a man eating spider.

He uses his front leg to knock the arrow out of my hand.

"Bitch..." I say to the arachnid.

I dodge its fangs and yank out my sword. I stab his torso. When I pull out my blade he falls over the edge.

I put up my sword and bow.

"I'm gonna be completely honesty..." the spider splats down below, "I feel pretty badass."
